James D. Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I've been getting advanced training in our store's cash office procedures the past few weeks. Saturday nights are hellacious because you have to do end-of-week procedure on EVERYTHING--Western Union, Ticketmaster, Georgia Lottery, etc. Tonight, I screwed something up and we had to spend almost an hour figuring out how we lost track of $500. It's a good thing my co-workers and manager are all awesome because if I'd done that at previous jobs I've held, I never would have heard the end of it.

Venneh Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 So, I was making rice last night, and I forgot how hot the steam gets when I was taking the cover off to check on it. This is now why I have a steam burn on my middle finger. *facedesk* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is now why I have a steam burn on my middle finger. *facedesk* Yeah that's no fun. I have a couple of scars on my wrist that mark burns from careless use of the grill.

Venneh Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I've also got this lovely scar on my thumb because it was resting against an extremely hot cookie sheet, fresh out of the oven, and I didn't notice for about oh, five minutes. *facedesk* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 So going home tonight, I had to get a bus, it was raining heavily outside. The bus stops about a mile and a half from my stop for a few minutes, I don't notice as it sometimes happens, then another bus goes by, and I hear someone shouting at the driver, I listen in, turns out the bus had broken down and the fucking tool bus driver didn't tell us so we could have got the other bus, instead, he just sat there, like the tit he was. I had to get off and walk home. I'm not annoyed about walking in the rain, I'm annoyed that I had to find out from someone else that the bus has broken down, instead of the driver. The other person was shouting at him, because he didn't say a thing to the people on the bus. If he said something like, came out and said "Sorry, the bus has broken down" I would shrug, and get the other bus, but no, he sat on his ass and did fuck all. Arsehole.

MaxPower Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 He's blaming all you young kids with your iPods and how you probably wouldn't listen to him anyway Seriously though, that is just really bad form, I am staggered at how bad some public transport is around the world, Melbourne included in that...

Nicolette Opal Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Dear writers, I do not care that you "have been published in over [insert number] of journals." Nor do I want a laundry list. Give a name or two or five and leave it. All the former does is make me think (1) you're a liar or (2) you think you can strong-arm your stuff into publications by saying the equivalent of, "See? Everyone else likes it. You should, too." Fix this. Also, write better. OK? Thanks. Edited 2 days later to add: You are not doing better. You are writing other things, but not better things, in your cover letters. You are claiming bad childhoods and desires to see your work in our book and, sometimes, you say nothing at all. You are getting too close for comfort. You don't know me like that, son. You don't know me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I hate being in a formal wedding. I am a groomsman in two this summer and I have to pay the rental on both suits so that's $120 or so apiece I'm not getting back and that I would rather not be spending. The part that annoys me is that for that price, I could probably buy a suit but can't because both weddings have different suits they want me to rent. They're both some of my best friends so I couldn't say no but I also don't think I should have to spend the money on something like this. If I ever do get married, I'm telling everyone dress however you want. I'll be the one in the Green Lantern hoodie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxPower Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 But it's an honour to be asked, hehehe. I hear your pain, I've been in 3or4 bridal parties and they are a pain in the ass. And not once did I get to bang the bridesmaid! And as I'm getting older, the opportunity for the bridesmaids to be single at a wedding are fewer and far between. That all being said, just make sure you get him to the ceremony on time (and healthy) and your job is done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolette Opal Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I haven't been asked to be in a wedding party since I was young enough to be a flower girl. Not counting my own wedding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Thankfully wedding number 1 will be over rather early in the evening so I'm either driving up to Detroit afterward for a comic book convention or going out drinking in the tux with two other of my friends who will be there still in the tuxes. Wedding number two is open bar so I can get hammered and not care one bit after wards. Plus wedding number two, apparently one of the bridesmaids is the bride's other gay friend and that's who I get to walk with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm the best man in an upcoming wedding, and thankfully, my other male friend is too much of a sociopath to ever get married. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I have also never been asked to be ina wedding party. Nor do I care. Too much work. Not enough fun. Weddings suck. Unless I'm talking about my own, in which case it was excellent if my wife, now technically a staff member at Earth-2.net, is browsing the forums...

Missy Posted January 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 I'm so very tired of my slow Internet connection, so I contacted AT&T to see about an upgrade. Turns out what I have is the fastest they can offer in my area. Even the phone rep admitted it's a slow, nearly useless speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
