That Thread About Work: "Custom kitchen deliveries...!"

I'm reading an old issue of the magazine Science, published October 2000, for work and in it, they interview then-Presidential candidates Gore and Bush. It's amazing how transparently stupid Bush is, and I fail to understand how the Yanquis among you allowed him to get elected. Twice.

Hey!!!! I take offense to that. America only voted for him once.

We're sheep. Also rigged ballots, paid-off ballot handlers etc etc.


Lobbyists! I hate those guys. They're almost worst than lawyers.

EDIT: the second election was easier because Kerry is an idiot. He flip flops more than a dying fish. Granted Bush was equally an idiot, but he didn't flip or flop until after he was elected like a "good" elected candidate does.

So they are rolling out a brand new website for my work. And in it, we are evidently suppose to fill out these Social Network pages.

I managed to fit the bare minimum amount of information on my page. Those bastards are going to have to deal with my pic being Professor Honeydew from the Muppets, and my one allowed figure to be the Iceshadow avatar from Last.fm.

Deal with that homies.
 
Today I have to write about Ben Mezrich, author of the book that 21 was based on, and his new book about Facebook, Accidental Billionaires.

It's already been optioned for a movie, so when they make it they should make all the characters Asian, as payback.
 
I just read through this whole thread because I was bored. It was pretty funny.

I need a job.
 
I have to restart my work computer because there was a massive server failure last night that is causing a feedback loop in my computer saying a Delayed write failure

I'm going to cut a *****

The worst thing about web design is the retards that come in wanting to create a dating site, and have no plan for it whatsoever. They think you just build a site and people come to it. No marketing plan, no idea what to do to make it unique. I want to set these people on fire just for calling me and wasting my time.
 
I got the nastiest email from work the other day, and not even someone from my group.

We are in a state of constant flux at work, which means we move machines around all the time. It's part of the job. I know how to move machines carefully and with as little damage as possible.

So anyways, before I came to the floor, some freaking group dropped one of their machines on our benches and walked away. They don't even pay rent for the space they are using, they simply left their machine there. So from time to time, we need to move the machine out of our way, and put it somewhere else.

So that's what I did the other day, I warned the people who own the machine that it was going to be moved a week before I move it, and of course they never responded.

So I moved the machine.

Someone uses it, and ****s up the door mechanism, which is a common problem with said machine.

The next thing I know, I get blindsided with the nasty email of someone basically telling me I gave them no warning, this is the third time I've moved the machine though it isn't even ours, and blah blah blah. This person goes on to call me, and this I will quote "ignorant garbage."

And they are an operation manager? How do you get to be a manager when you talk like that to someone whose not even in your group? Freaking moron.

So I inform my boss, who I have to admit, is the coolest boss I've ever had. He checked out the machine, agreed with my assessment that it wasn't broken when we moved it, that someone else broke the damn thing, and agrees to pay for the fix, just to shut the other person up.

So no one learned a lesson other than that they are permitted to be an ******* with no ramifications?

Actually, she sent the nasty email only to me, and my boss sent her boss the nasty email, with his part added.

So down the line, who knows. This person obviously got her position by being a complete and utter *****.

I'm more happy about not being fired, which she called for in her email.

Finally got a job at a local daycare center. The hours are short, but the work is murder and the pay is terrible. But I need at least 30 hours of volunteer work if I want to graduate high school, so tough beans.

Also, the kids think my name is James and that my mother is eighteen years old. I don't know why.

I'm afraid I have nothing to say to this other then I'm imagining Grimlock bursting through her office window and munching on her, complete with "om nom nom" sounds.
