i had my review in which it was revealed that my territory is 6% over goal/18% over last year and also glowing praise blah blah blah blah blah about being a consummate team player and always happy to basically give up everything ever in the world to back up jackasses and so on and so forth BUT since i show up 15 minutes late pretty regularly due to ABSOLUTELY HATING THIS PLACE AND EVERYONE IN IT i kind of only qualify as "meets standards" and do not "exceed standards"

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 19:56 (seventeen years ago) link

my territory is 6% over goal/18% over last year

i'd like to point out that they are talking about MY territory only, not the OTHER THREE I HAVE BEEN WORKING AND KEEPING AT STOCK EVEN FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE PAST 5 MONTHS. which is written, right here, in this review!!!

but still i only meet standards and you know that means i wouldn't get anything from this review.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 19:57 (seventeen years ago) link

i take back what i said about not killing people

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 19:58 (seventeen years ago) link

because if i demoralized myself even more and rushed in here on time instead of just saying fuck it, getting coffee and a smoke first, maybe we'd be like 7% over goal because GOD FORBID ANYONE ELSE DO ANYTHING.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 19:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh Jesus Christ.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 9 April 2007 19:59 (seventeen years ago) link

i guess the reason why i am in this industry to begin with is that i took this all laughing and smiling and being ultimate #1 bro the entire time, only making one (1) sarcastic and nasty comment about anyone.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 19:59 (seventeen years ago) link

ok that sentence didn't entirely make sense

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:00 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm getting down on myself for basically having no marketable skills whatsoever besides being a big huge phony, sorry :\

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:00 (seventeen years ago) link

i don't have marketable skills, either, it's ok

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:01 (seventeen years ago) link

high fives

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:01 (seventeen years ago) link

i really need to find a way to turn "being chatty" into a marketable skill

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:02 (seventeen years ago) link

oh hey are you guys talking about having no marketable skills

ghost rider, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:02 (seventeen years ago) link

yes we are ghost rider, come and join us!

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:02 (seventeen years ago) link

i was an english major haha!

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:03 (seventeen years ago) link

being a big chatty liar is my marketable skill, the circle comes back to full yet again

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:03 (seventeen years ago) link

I determined (in a conversation with a professor, no less!) that my only marketable skill is "being pleasant." if you are a chick, that conversation turns awkward real quick.

The Flying Dawkins: a place for big chatty liars

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:04 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm not even pleasant :/

ghost rider, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:04 (seventeen years ago) link

the schef, please go tell adorable parent factoids on the relevant thread!

horseshoe, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:04 (seventeen years ago) link

that's okay, Alex, you're a boy, being pleasant will get you nowhere.

horseshoe, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:05 (seventeen years ago) link

my marketability rests solely on being cute (according to my boss I "have the motor skills of a small child"): this will get me through my thesis, and then I am doomed.

jessie monster, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:05 (seventeen years ago) link

sometimes you are pleasant. beartrap

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:05 (seventeen years ago) link

oh, Jessie, I'm not sure what your thesis is in, but I'm in grad school and cute is a double-edged sword (if you're a chick.)

horseshoe, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

yay for Ally's mom!

horseshoe, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

hi why am I so bitter today. sorry guys. you are all pleasant and lovely.

horseshoe, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:07 (seventeen years ago) link

hahahaha you've never met us

pretzel walrus, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:07 (seventeen years ago) link

I feel confident

horseshoe, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:08 (seventeen years ago) link

dude, being a woman in life (grad) school is a double-edged sword. :/

jessie monster, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:08 (seventeen years ago) link

every job i've ever had was basically me being hired to flirt with people and manipulate them. i'm having kind of a crisis here i think.

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:08 (seventeen years ago) link

"pleasant"

Mr. Que, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:08 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm distinctly unpleasant at work and/or when annoyed or impatient, but I do get things done. My marketable skills all involve manufacturing & production and asking vendors whether their pressmen were fucking sleeping when they printed my books, though.

Jessie, I would like to subscribe to your newsletter!

WHY AREN'T YOU A BARTENDER, SERIOUSLY


BEARTRAPPIN THE SCHEF

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:09 (seventeen years ago) link

i should probably just become a bartender really

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

i'd be happier

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

tho these jerkwads here would glue themselves to my bar in hopes of getting free drinks and i'd never make any money ;_;

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

honestly, this whole "med school" business aside, the one thing i've really wanted to do was open up a bar/hostel/whatever in silverton, colorado.


also it would be a record label

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:10 (seventeen years ago) link

tho i wouldn't need any money cos i could just steal drinks and smokes from the bar!!! :D

the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Monday, 9 April 2007 20:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Ally, sweetheart, I hear you. Take ten deep breaths. You are Allyzay, Adventuress and High Spirit Extraordinaire.

Beat rep: Bartending: you'll make hella money but your customers will all be douchebags who will check out yr T&A 94/7. Okay with that? Y/N

Laurel, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:11 (seventeen years ago) link

wait let's take a moment out of this pity party to lol at fluffy bear

ghost rider, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:11 (seventeen years ago) link

"jerkwads"

Mr. Que, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:11 (seventeen years ago) link

agreed: lol, fluffy bear, kudos

river wolf, Monday, 9 April 2007 20:12 (seventeen years ago) link

I think what Ally is saying is the only difference between that and her current job is hella money?
