It's a good 'un.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I need to find his parents and slap the fudge out of them.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I just hope he went/goes to a public school...because if it's private, that sure was a poor return on investment

I'm still amazed that someone that writes like that can hold a job...anywhere...well, anywhere that pays more than minimum wage...

[UndercoverPunk 0]

Oh that's legit, it would be hard to fake something like that.

[JimJ 11]

I literally cannot write like that...even when I'm drunk, I've passed out before my writing got that bad.

It amazes me how some people survive - but like the bumper sticker says, only because there are laws in place so we can't shoot them.

Human stupidity > Darwinism.

Random fact, Darwin never came up with the phrase "survival of the fittest," Anthropologist Herbert Spencer did. Tis a common mistake.

I also wonder why humans defy Darwinism. Why haven't we killed off the stupid people? Is it because we are the only species that has developed culture and symbolism? IDK. What do you think?

I kinda need advise...

Today I found out that one of my co-workers was promoted. After the meeting My CompUSA boss asked if I was interested in filling his position. This means that I would be back at comp and likly to get a raise out of the deal. As most of you know Comp laid me off, not because I deserved it. They decided to lay off a few in every department instead of taking the time to research over populated departments. I am stressed to the max dealing with 150+Microsoft skus, 300+game titals, 75 magazine titals, and as of yesterday 352 Sone and MGM movies. Talk about stressful to be in charge of 250 stores inventory on 877 titals. If I take the new job I will be in charge of all import skus ~500 and I will have to constantly deal with customs (I</3 customs) teh suckz.

What do you guys think...?

!)stay where you are at. Stressful and no end to the mess

or

2)back to the same company that laid you off, semi stressful and non challenging. Have to start over on insurance and wait 1 year again for vacation totaling 3 years no vacation...

I hate everything right now...

tell them to fatten up the deal for you.

[dennisp 0]

damn, lesser of two evils. I just can't decide which is less evil, both options dont seem fun.

[Impious 1,476]

Well, the local powerball lottery drawing is up to $380,000,000

Bought $20 worth myself, and pitched in $5 at work with my department to pool together some money and buy tickets.

So, I've increased my chances of winning from .00000000684% to .00000041%

YAY!!

How long ago did they lay you off? If it was within a reasonably recent time frame; I'd tell them you'll go back but they have to start your benefits package at the same point it was at when you got laid off, and increasing from there as it typically would for someone with that seniority. They laid you off for budgetary reasons. You didn't quit, and you didn't get fired.

If they didn't do that, I'd say screw 'em.

My thoughts exactly ... saved me some typing

So the teachers are on stike here. Going on just over a week now. Very ugly as other unions within the province are walking out. My bank has been supporting the teachers by picketing outside of the bank for the past three days, no public transportation, recreation centers being picketed, and the pucking post office is being picketed. The goddamn employees are Federal employees, not provincial ... so why in the fudge are they picketing ... absolutely unbelievable. I can't mail chit because it won't get sent out, and I can't even see my bloody bank accounts. I love it. The dumb chits (unions and just dumb people) that have walked out and supported the teachers are going to get absolutely raped in the ass ... whether it be jail time, suspensions from work, flat out fired, or fined big time. Yeeaaah you've been getting a 1% raise each year for the past 10 years and it's definitely not enough, everyone agrees that teachers are underpaid. "We care about the students." fudge that, no you don't ... if you cared about the students you'd be inside teaching them instead of outside making yourselves look like fools because a) union is getting fined ten grand a day which is coming out of the union dues you've been paying, B) every four days you are on strike a teacher will be fired because that's 40 grand which pays a first year teachers salary, c) the strike is illegal, d) you can't afford to go on strike because you don't get paid for three months out of the year, e) you're fudgeed either way because you'll probably go back to work without a contract and no increase in pay. They'll get a contract, but it's not going to be great.

Kill 'em all. I hate the government and general society. And what is up with people staring at you when you're driving or crossing a street? Don't pucking stare at me for christs sake.

[Chevy350TPI 12]

I must loose five or six pens a day on my desk in my office alone, not including the ones I put down elsewhere in my personal office.

[Tirefryr 1,742]

Captain, you need a new vehicle. Something fun to release the stress. Like an SLR.

Seriously though, I agree with you 100%.

I stare back.

That, "You better watch where you park, because I'm going to be parked down the street from you...watching...remember this vehicle, because your daughter and I are going to be in it later..." stare.

Or something like that.

Got $450, 000 I can borrow? Or better yet, an extra $10, 000 a month for the monthly payments I'd be making?

I have a big time anger problem though. I'll admit it. My attitude since high school has been I'll fight anyone over anything. Lots of little things piss me off. Italian temper at its finest, I guess.
