I'm sorry to hear that, Hoos.

Oilyrags, Friday, 4 April 2008 19:29 (eighteen years ago)

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 4 April 2008 19:34 (eighteen years ago)

I'm not a philospher

Oilyrags, Friday, 4 April 2008 19:35 (eighteen years ago)

Hurting 2, Friday, 4 April 2008 19:37 (eighteen years ago)

i need my fucking server working or i should just go home.

forksclovetofu, Friday, 4 April 2008 19:37 (eighteen years ago)

i feel kind of wacky right now. maybe blood sugar is low. i need to spend my last hour trying to find a snack.

carne asada, Friday, 4 April 2008 19:39 (eighteen years ago)

frittering time w/ snacks VS. snacking time w/ fritters

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:00 (eighteen years ago)

I am going to eat a slice of pizza from *Capone's* when I get out of here.

Hurting 2, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:01 (eighteen years ago)

new england clam cakes are fritters, i guess? you should eat those because they are the doughnuts of the sea

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:01 (eighteen years ago)

ideally they should come in a white paper bag that is translucent from alla grease

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:02 (eighteen years ago)

omg hungry

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:02 (eighteen years ago)

I made do with a bagga doritos and a bottla coke.

$2.35!

Oilyrags, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:03 (eighteen years ago)

i have apples and lupine beans on hand. FIBROUS.

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:04 (eighteen years ago)

> lupine beans

AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Oilyrags, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:05 (eighteen years ago)

i already ate some kidney beans (in veggie chili) and green beans (w/ feta & lemon, nom nom) at lunch. if i eat the lupine beans it will make for a beany trifecta and i do not know if that is wise.

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:06 (eighteen years ago)

in fact, i know it to be unwise.

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:06 (eighteen years ago)

AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPFFFFFFFFFFT!

Oilyrags, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:07 (eighteen years ago)

eating them anyway.

elmo argonaut, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:11 (eighteen years ago)

I had a Starbucks veggie crunchwrap for lunch today. The bounty of NJ highwayland.

Hurting 2, Friday, 4 April 2008 20:13 (eighteen years ago)

I've been at work for 24 minutes. Is it too early to bump this thread?

Upt0eleven, Friday, 18 April 2008 08:57 (eighteen years ago)

I've been here for two minutes, so certainly not.

Øystein, Friday, 18 April 2008 09:12 (eighteen years ago)

Screw this, I'm going out again to buy myself a sugarbomb bun and a cuppa hot chocolate. Being an adult is brilliant!

Øystein, Friday, 18 April 2008 09:17 (eighteen years ago)

It's not bad. Also not bad is the fact that no-one here seems to be interested in what work I'm doing, or if i'm doing any at all. They've introduced performance-based bonuses to my package but they're not as motivating as one might expect. I start looking for a new job tomorrow now.

Upt0eleven, Friday, 18 April 2008 10:38 (eighteen years ago)

What is the job, Nick?

Mark C, Friday, 18 April 2008 10:41 (eighteen years ago)

The one I'm doing? It's internet marketing, of a kind. I've learned quite a lot and gained some valuable SEO experience but it was never the ideal job and when I took it 6 months ago I was in no position to be choosy - debts to sort out, rent to pay and no other offers on the table. I don't have those hanging over me anymore.

I've been here six months, which seems to be just about long enough, and the whole thing is seriously grating at this point. The commute is too long and too expensive, the work is beyond tedious and not as well paid as an equivalent position nearer to home, my colleagues, although not bad people, drive me round the bend on a daily basis.

I'm gonna contact the company that very nearly employed me before but decided to go for someone with more web 2.0 experience - which I now have - before I start properly shopping around.

I know work is work and I shouldn't be so moany but I'm not looking for a dream job - just a marginal improvement.

Upt0eleven, Friday, 18 April 2008 11:02 (eighteen years ago)

three weeks pass...

only 40 minutes left. SAVE ME!

Oilyrags, Friday, 9 May 2008 19:51 (eighteen years ago)

Dude what the hell time is it there? It is 1:51 p.m. here. Texas. Oh god.

Abbott, Friday, 9 May 2008 19:54 (eighteen years ago)

It's 3pm. But I come in at seven and 'work' til 3:30 with a half hour lunch, so 3:30 makes eight hours.

Oilyrags, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:01 (eighteen years ago)

only 40 minutes left. SAVE ME!

Uh, why should I? If it were 8 AM then maybe...

stevienixed, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:01 (eighteen years ago)

Oh, so you'd save the guy on the shore who hasn't gone swimming yet, but the dude who's almost drowned already get's a 'why should I?'?

Thanks a LOT.

Oilyrags, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:03 (eighteen years ago)

I CAN FEEL IT
COMING IN THE AIR TONIGHT

Abbott, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:04 (eighteen years ago)

bell_labs, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:05 (eighteen years ago)

Oilyrags, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:10 (eighteen years ago)

I need to get my SNES back from the buddies' house so I can contine my Mario 2 action.

Abbott, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:15 (eighteen years ago)

Ai Lien, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:15 (eighteen years ago)

that's a long way to plan ahead

Oilyrags, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:17 (eighteen years ago)

This weekend, Liberty City will be painted red.

B.L.A.M., Friday, 9 May 2008 20:21 (eighteen years ago)

bell_labs, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:22 (eighteen years ago)

So long SUCKERS! Thanks for the distraction.

Oilyrags, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:29 (eighteen years ago)

Ai Lien, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:40 (eighteen years ago)

in between phone calls and attorneys showing up, i'm reading CivilWarLand in bad decline by George Saunders. WEIRD.

Ai Lien, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:41 (eighteen years ago)

BigLurks, Friday, 9 May 2008 20:51 (eighteen years ago)

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:00 (eighteen years ago)

Dude, my bosses need to stop beating each other up.

Wow, these motherfuckers need a weekend off.

B.L.A.M., Friday, 9 May 2008 21:16 (eighteen years ago)

Yikes, I read that as "my bosses need to stop beating each other off."

BigLurks, Friday, 9 May 2008 21:17 (eighteen years ago)

carne asada, Friday, 23 May 2008 19:47 (eighteen years ago)
