I just got fired... (technically, I voluntarily resigned, but it was that, or get fired, and voluntary resignations don't show up as getting fired would on my record.) Can't say I didn't see it coming though.... I just couldn't work fast enough. Of course, it doesn't help that my previous store is the fastest superstore in Canada. They have the fastest average time stocking the shelves. However, the minimum speed was averaging 1 case per minute, and I couldn't even keep up to that.

Fuck. I'm not even angry at this point, just really disappointed and depressed.

Shitty deals. But if they need to be that fast, they should have more people working so that when they hire new people its not a shock for them when they are trying to keep up, but that starting to make too much sense for a company like that.

I consistently discover more and more bug bites all over my body, with no idea how or when I get them. I just know I'm itchy. Weird.

Well, my store was the fastest superstore in Canada, and the second fastest out of every store owned by Loblaws chains in Canad because of having so few people doing so much.
This is going in my sig. :)

My dad right now, for the following reasons (and I realise some of these are pedantic):

-Leaves the fridge door ajar because he doesn't make sure it's closed, ignores subsequent frantic fridge beeping
-Doesn't take a half-second to click pens closed (about 40% of our pens are actually usable)
-Doesn't reset the timer on the microwave after ending something early
-Dozes in the living room in front of the TV instead of just going to sleep
-Leaving the top light and end-table light on while dozing
-Leaving lights on in general, EXCEPT the garage light (which we want on)
-Restarts the computer whenever he has a problem with the browser
-Uses the bathroom, leaves the door open, doesn't flush, DOES NOT WASH HANDS WTF

This stuff grates on you after a while, I think.

ajar

not to pick on you, but this.


We pressed on. Shortly afterwards, we arrived in a poisonous, post-apocalyptic hell - a sprawling, toxic dumping ground stretching for a mile or two. This is the final resting place for your old TV, computer or mobile phone.

That stuff bugs me too. Only in my case, it's people leaving the freezer door down here open slightly, allowing things to thaw out and get wrecked.

My brother will turn on the huge amp we have to play Bass/Guitar/play with the MicroKorg, and leave it running. This is a tube amp. We ply it at somewhere between 1 and 2 on the volume, and I can hear it upstairs. It eats electricity like made, and gets hot, heating up the basement, as well.
This is going in my sig. :)

Those things sound like my dad... he preaches about saving electricity but leaves almost every light on in his office EVERY NIGHT.

And my dad does that last thing pretty often, too, haha. Bleh.

Wow.

Here's an idea: when he inevitably burns out a tube by doing that, make him pay to replace it.

My parents do that constantly, and I have room ADD so I leave lights, the wall unit AC, and my TV on randomly for hours.

Wow.

Hell, my friend's dog pissed on his tube amp and broke it, so he kicked the dog out of his room for several months.

I was browsing Wikipedia, and I came across this on the "Where's Wally?" page: "Where's Waldo is listed by the American Library Association on the List of most commonly challenged books in the U.S. The most common reason for banning is that, in one picture, located on a beach, a female sunbather is seen with exposed breasts."

Book challenging/banning in America = Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.

Code: [Select]
f(u,c,k,_,y,e,a,h)
{return u*u*u*u-u*u*u*_+u*u*y-u*e+a?k?f(u+1,c,k-1,_,y,e,a,h):0:putchar(u-c+h)==f(u+1,u,k-1,_,y,e,a,h);}
main(){return f(0,0,34,84,2423,26628,72864,98)<putchar(32)>f(0,0,40,125,5809,118995,906750,96)==~putchar(10);}

So what...the current comming generation are more exposed to that kind of stuff then I was growing up.

Talk about double standard...well to some extent.
