I don't think I'd be in much shape for drinking after driving all night long :-k

[Pony]

Fly in. Probably be cheaper than driving anyways.

[Pony]

First rounds on me.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Cheapest flight is $717 and leaves in 40 minutes :|

[Pony]

GO! I called the airport and let them know there is no need to screen you, they said tell you to just run through screaming about missing your flight.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Now it leaves in 10 minutes...and I live at least 35 minutes from the airport :|

[Pony]

Drive fast?

The cops will escort you.

Anyone remember me talking about them pulling all our keys for the building and changing the alarm codes at work because some numbers didn't add up as far as material usage? Basically accusing us all of theft?

Yea, about that.... turns out that one of the guys at one of the other shops that has filled in at our building in the past has been using his online paint account login for our shop from the other location. Totally screwed our usage numbers and made theirs look unbelievably good. Still unclear whether he did it purposely to hide doing side jobs himself or was just not clear that he wasn't supposed to use the login info for the other building.

I think Corporate owes us all an apology for the accusations and rumors spreading around that we were stealing.

I hope they give you one dude :thumbsup:

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Why is it when they make roads, instead of putting the manholes right in the middle of the lane so you would just drive over it, they always put it in the area where your tires will hit it and you can't avoid it and they always submerge it about 6 feet below the level of the road so that it completely jars your vehicle as you drive over it? :|

I've got 3 I'm working on. I was one second away from quitting my job yesterday over the fuckin convertible hardtop. Every simple task is overengineered and takes three times longer. I'm gonna work 40 hours this week and be lucky to earn 25.

[Goofy]

I'm having a bastard of a time refitting the external door handles on an X3......... fuckin stupid idea :x

[Pony]

Everything is a stupid idea on the BMW. I don't remember the specifics of an X3 handle, sorry. Is that one of the ones with the slide that has a locking tab on it?

I had a hell of a time with the door glass install and alignment on the convertible. Took me over an hour of cussing at it just to get the glass in place. One simple design change and I would have had it installed in about two minutes.

[Goofy]

Yeah, you slacken the 25 torx screw to release the plunger and the handle pulls out.......... putting it back in is a bitch though, especially when one of the painters has managed to knock out the spring loaded bracket on the other end :|

Yea, We get stuck with all the BMW, Land rover, Mercedes, Volvo etc. Then we get our asses chewed out because we aren't turning as many hours as the other shops that are doing the easy cars.

Quality doesn't mean shit for my company any more, it's all about how fast. Too bad I'm not a hack, I could make some money.

Oh well, I'm already gonna be late, maybe I'll get fired today. :mrgreen:

[Goofy]

Not quite so bad for me, we're more 'quality' than 'quantity' thankfully, as long as we're making enough money to pay the bills and there's no complaints then my boss is happy :)

[Pony]

I wish we were more quality than quantity. I have the highest CSI rating of all three shops. Most years I'm at 99-100% (CSI is the customer satisfaction forms they fill out and mail in after the jobs completed)

[Noilly Pratt]

I think Corporate owes us all an apology for the accusations and rumors spreading around that we were stealing.

This always aggravates me...my wife who worked in an insurance office for then 7 years was outright accused of stealing and was told that because the cash was so short, she'd have to fund the difference.

I had a quick phone call with the CEO and told him that Labour Standards was my next call if there wasn't an retraction to that directive in writing on my wife's desk the next morning!

It was, and a few weeks later they found out her colleague (who'd only worked there a few months) was outright stealing from the register. She stole only when she was on shift with my wife, and they accused her first!! Good job she was laid off of that job earlier this year...good riddance to those money-grubbing bastids.

my old boss restores cars...all makes, mostly European.He's like the Rainman for vehicles.I told him I was having troubles and he laughed,
until he came out one day and tried to do it at lunch.He broke two plastic collar thingys and then started swearing...

for a fooking headlight...

[Pony]

To change most bulbs you need to disassemble stuff to get to it, many you need to pull the whole light assembly and the vast majority of headlights in the newer cars you need to pull the bumper cover 90% off to get to the bolts.

Just about had to pull an engine mount to get to mine :x... and the release tabs were almost welded on to remove the light assembly.

So finally I get the damn thing changed and the new light bulb is about 10000 watts brighter than the factory light bulb...so then people are flashing their brights at night when I drive by them :lol: So I tackle the other headlight, go out and people start flashing me again....

Turns out I didn't align them very well :oops: So another hour in the garage and I get that done.


:lol: what a shitshow for changing headlights

my brother does that to our whole family...he figures - once he's up, the rest of the world should be...

I had a barnburner of a fight with him when he called at 6:15am one morning on the weekend.His question was about a family dinner that was to take place
3 days from the day of the call.I finally got him to admit that the call could have waited for 4 or 5 hours as it wasn't that pressing.

He says - I was at work that Saturday, I figured everyone would be up....
I countered with - I stay up every night until at least 2am, how 'bout I call you around that time on a work night? (he gets up at 4:30am)


All of a sudden, I get threatened and I'm the bad guy :lol:

[Tank]

dont you love it when you have to teach the doctor about your illness
:huh:
had to go to the docs last night to get a long standing problem thats flaring up more and more look into, went a little like this -

usual doctors blah blah.

doc - so tell me the problem

me - well doc, i've been told i have compartment syndrome in my shins.

doc - :-s :-k you have what?

me - Compartment Syndrome . . .

doc - :-s . . . . . i dont know this ailment??

i then proceed to teach him the basics of it.

:doh: now i know not every doc is gonna know everything about every single illness in the world, but to at least have heard of it would have been nice.

ohh yeah, his treatment . . . have an x-ray then go back in 3 weeks to see him.

[Hal-9000]

:x

[Hal-9000]

Where's Lance? :lol:

Awhile back, he felt that people in the food drive-thru lines shouldn't augment their orders, that should be done at the line up inside the restaurant.



In Canada we have a popular restaurant/drive thru called Tim Horton's.Renowned for their coffee and donuts, you can also get bagels, small sandwiches and the like there.These places are packed every day.

On my commute to work there's an Esso gas station with a small kiosk to pay and get pop/chips etc.Someone decided to put a Tim Horton's in this miniscule kiosk.You'd have to see it to understand, people working there are literally shoulder to shoulder, tripping over each other.

I stop most mornings there to get a coffee and the line up is legendary.There is no drive thru at this outlet so often the line up snakes thru the store and out to the parking lot.

This morning.....a woman in the lineup orders quite possibly everything on the Tim Horton's menu.Every beverage is augmented ( 4 coffees, cream on the side, 2 tea's, teabag on the side etc) Then she gets to the food - 48 donuts, each dozen comprised of 3 specific types, 4 bagels, all with something different than the menu offers and a handful of sandwiches in which each sandwich was augmented to the point of not being the original sandwich type at all :lol:


and then the finale - She exclaims " Oh dear, how will I get all of this out to my car?? " There are 2 or 3 Tim's workers at one time in there in the morning and they do not stop.So this wonderful women enlists of the workers to haul her 8 bags of shit out out to her car.

Judging by the atmosphere of us other 27 people waiting in line...thar was gonna be a lynchin :lol:

[Teh One Who Knocks]

I would have gone home, retrieved a weapon (I'm sure she still would have been there the whole time I was gone it sounds) and then:

:machinegun:

[Hal-9000]

It's like the line up for the Soup Nazi on Seinfeld...everyone needs their coffee-crack so no one makes waves no matter how big the line up gets within that 20 sq foot area :lol: Heads down, quiet shuffling....please/thanks and you're outta there!

You could almost hear the tension rise with each item she listed.Some people wait for 20 minutes standing, just to get a small coffee there.I was 2 people behind her and trying my best to remember her order for this thread.I lost track on the third food item after the 4 dozen specific donuts :lol:

oh...and she used debit just to delay the process a little longer.....

[Noilly Pratt]

And ive always thought that trouble was your middle name :mrgreen:

I thought "Danger" was your middle name, Mr. Powers.... :)

Re the Tim Horton's customer from hell...Hope you see her again and are just ahead of her- then comment to the clerk about "Geez, these people who order everything off the menu are sooo inconsiderate"...

Some people need a slap....

[Hal-9000]

justice and karma :lol:

Everyday I use an offramp that has two lanes, one merges into the other on the ramp before exiting.Today a jackass in a truck was in the outside lane, I have the right of way on the ramp, he must merge before the ramp ends.

So he tries to mat it and overtake me on the outside...I don't let him :lol:

Then we get on to the main thoroughfare which is 4 lanes wide.I'm in the middle lane, he cuts in front of me from the left and right lanes 4 times...each time flipping me the bird in his rearview mirror.He literally went back and forth over 3 lanes, just to do this to me.

On his last pass in front of me, he does his little pissy move and then gets back into a right lane that exits to downtown. I see and hear a police car who comes up from behind me on the right, lights flashing and siren on.

They pulled him over in the right lane, blocking all traffic into downtown :lol:

I laughed for the following 20 minutes on the way to work......

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Bwahahahahahahaha....I love karma :lol:

[Hal-9000]

It was one of those - he wanted to pull a shitty move and then got pissed because he got caught.

and I'm the bad guy......


fuck you twerp, hope the ticket was for reckless or dangerous driving, they carry nice fines and demerit points :thumbsup:

[Teh One Who Knocks]

I know, the same thing happens here. Some ass thinks he's better than everyone else so instead of just pulling in behind someone when they know that they need to merge ahead, instead they floor it and try and cut everyone off. I do the same as you did, someone that should have pulled in and merged tries to cut in front of me, I don't let them. Fuck it, I'll rear end the car in front of me before I'll let that asshole merge in. And then they always do the same thing, flip me off because I wouldn't let them in. Whatever asshole :roll:

[Hal-9000]

exactly...on my commute, we have a lane reversal thing that occurs everyday at 3:30 until 6:30 pm.It's been going on for 4 years now.

There are 3 yellow crossing arms that come down and cover the lane, along with lights above the lane and before the lane telling
people the lane runs out within 300 meters.

Yet everyday people race up the left lane (the one that ends) and then butt in, making the rest of us (who can read) wait for them.
One day this past winter I saw a guy haul ass up the left lane and he clipped the first crossing arm because he didn't stop in time.

I know there was a guy like me, tired of the bullshit in the right lane who probably didn't let him in :lol:

mainly its because of booking agencies that book lots of times and then dont show up so CC are asked for so that if you no show the course can charge you part of a fee for the loss of business... my advice find a non-valid card and give that number with a exp. date... most of the systems dont check to see if the card is valid so then you can get the tee time no issue... (source is me from working as a Starter at the local golf course... :lol:) and the bonus if you no show there is no fee ;)

[Hal-9000]

People that are oblivious to their surroundings!!! :x :x :x

I go to an Esso gas station that has a Tim Hortons crammed in the same store.
For the past two weeks there have been large signs posted EVERYWHERE saying
that the Esso gas station will be undergoing upgrades and refurbishing on JUNE 14TH
AND WILL BE CLOSED ALL DAY.(the Tim Hortons will be open for coffee and donuts)

Today, they have yellow police tape around the gas pumps and inside the store, the same tape cordons off all of the Esso convenience store items like milk, chocolate bars etc.There are huge signs inside and outside the store.

This lady about my age this morning walks in there and says she 'hit the yellow stuff' with her car, meaning the tape.Then she asks why she can't move around in the store as she needs to buy something.Then she stands in the Tim Horton's lineup within the store complaining/asking what''s going on for 10 minutes...while we wait patiently for our donuts.

The dumbassed wombat actually drove through the yellow security tape trying to get near a pump...and then had the gall to ask the attendant in the store to come out remove all of the sticky stuff from her car.

I literally stood there with my mouth open and may have let out a very loud - DUUUUURHHHHHHHHHHH

It took me 20 minutes just to pick up a piece of mail :x

And they wonder why the post office keeps losing money :|

[Hal-9000]

Our postal workers are on strike :lol:

I should find the webpage about paying bills and their suggestions..screw it

It went something like this:

In the event you have to pay bills during the strike, it is up to the customer to determine how much they owe to each company (say what????)
You must pay all bills that formerly came via Canada Post in a timely fashion (say what?????)

In the event of a strike there are 3 alternative ways to pay your bills:

a.in person
b.online at the respective web page
c.mail


C.MAIL? HELLLLLOOOOOOOO? YOU IDIOTS ARE ON STRIKE, HOW DO WE MANAGE THAT YOU REMEDIAL BRAINIACS :lol:

[Teh One Who Knocks]

I don't think our postal workers can strike? :-k



Use the mail to pay your bills while the postal service is on strike...nice :lol:

[Hal-9000]

our postal guys go on strike about every two years...right around Christmas :rolleyes:

We do a fair amount of mailing at work but our primary focus is freight, so we use about 10 different courier/trucking companies.
When these mooks go on strike we just pick up the phone, call someone like UPS and ask if they'd like a few thousand pieces of mail
along with the normal business...they always do :dance:

now a postal strike isn't even a threat...up here they're one of the most overpaid professions we have.I worked in a postal plant counting
mail for the walkers when I was 17 or 18.Back then as a temp worker I made 15 bucks/hr which was a huge wage.The postal workers made
about 30% more than that

our postal guys go on strike about every two years...right around Christmas :rolleyes:

We do a fair amount of mailing at work but our primary focus is freight, so we use about 10 different courier/trucking companies.

Here, 1st class mail can only be delivered by the postal service. If they were on strike here, there would be no way to mail letters, unless you wanted to pay UPS or FedEx to send documents 2nd day air, which would run you about $10 versus 44 cents for a 1st class letter.

you going for a swear voucher off the mods too??? ;)

open letter . . .

Dear God, (for it can be only you putting this shit on me right now as I’ve not done any wrongs to get a Karma style ass kicking right now!)

My washing machine exploding I can just about deal with as its still under warranty and to be fair i bought a cheap one.

My bathroom extension deciding it would rather be a standalone building rather than a perfect match to the rest of my house was pushing my patience to just about the brink.
Clearly as you are the all seeing and all mighty you are aware of these things happening, and also aware of the fact that right now i can barely keep my falling apart house over my head. so why in the fuck have you decided that today you’d let me get asskicked in the wallet once more???

Could you not have let me off for just one weekend?? I mean c’mon! Surely there’s some rich shmuck out there who can afford to have my woes bestowed on them for a little while!?

Did you really have to let the car in front drive over whatever the fuck hit my car, that then somehow travelled up into the wheel arch and somehow managed to take all the fucking paint off?? I mean really??? Was that necessary??

Ohh yeah and to top it all off my mrs just got told that her dept/office is in the next round of redundancies at work!

Thanks for all that.

Yours fucking faithfully

Mr Tank

p.s. go ahead and smite me ohh mighty smiter! Cause right now this is how i feel! :doggybanana:

I've been working out since the beginning of June and am completely out of shape.
I haven't done any free weights for years, so yesterday I did arm curls until failure...about 20 minutes without a break.

This morning I got up and could not unbend my arms :oops:.....
I think I tore the bicep attachments on my forearms :lol:

Why are you going to failure when you haven't done anything in years? Your body's not prepared for it. Why are you doing timed interval training? If you're starting over from square one (and yes, no weights in 20 years is square one), you should start with basic techniques under strict guidelines or you will hurt yourself, over and over and over. Back off a little and get your tendons and ligaments used to the activities. You're not 19 years old anymore. You have to ease into it, bro.

Bwahahahahahaha, consider yourself told Hal :mrgreen:

[Hal-9000]

You put your feet on the bottom or top rests (top is brutal) and push with your legs while pulling the handlebars towards you.
That causes the seat to go up, using your body weight as the counterbalance.

It's easy for about 6 minutes...

[Dragoness_Cutie]

I'm totally just copying this over from the Thinking thread, because I forgot this one was here and griped there first... :lol:

My boss is a dick. Not intentionally, but one nonetheless. He forgets to call to tell folks when they're working all the time, he's horrible about actually getting the schedule made anywhere close to on time, and today, I got called in to work for a coworker who was "sick" (I maintain that he was just too hungover to come to work). Apparently I was supposed to be splitting his shift with another coworker, which I didn't find out about until said coworker came in for work. Grr...

[Hal-9000]

DC tell him you'll start arriving on time/the proper day....when he gets that schedule firmed up a little :lol:



ffs...X-amount of people, X-amount of work to do...blend the two! :lol:

[Dragoness_Cutie]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/Airiana/Emoticons/rant.gif I know! It's getting ridiculous. It's just a part time job, but it's one I actually enjoy going to, so I try not to bitch too much. But lately I'm just getting pissed off. I didn't get scheduled to work AT ALL last week, and the week before that, I only got 3.5 hours because he was short on hours. :x

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/Airiana/Emoticons/ranting.gif

[Hal-9000]

Unless you're making about 30 bucks/hr, getting no hours and 3.5 hours a week is not a part time job....that's horrible

maybe time to look for something else?

[Dragoness_Cutie]

Yeah... I make 8.16 USD/hr (which is, I think 7.82 CAD). I don't think it's worth it. It's a fun job, though. And yeah, I've been meaning to start looking for another job for a while (I have two right now) that is hopefully full time. Apparently there's not much chance of that, though. Even though I have a friggin' Bachelor's degree, ffs. The only redeeming quality about the job is that I have vision and dental insurance through them.

I'm actually enjoying the weather here now, it's been in the high 80's to low 90's for the last week or two, evening showers, and the humidity hasn't really been that bad. Where I'm working is about 300 yards from the coast of the South China Sea, so we get sea breezes all day. Not a bad spot at all really.

Why does your gym have no aircon? I thought all gyms had that as standard.

Something to do with stupid Environmental regulations in the Uni, as we have so many computer labs/ server rooms they get the sweet icy air. i get wall mounted desk fans :(
when the building was put up years ago, Aircon wasnt standard in gyms then so we never had it built into the place. what sucks now is that any new build on site is alowed to have aircon as long as its in the building plans/specs. places like us arent alowed to retrofit it

Pretty much...except things like veggies, prawns and fish.I usually don't eat fish and come to think of it...I've put a dab of BBQ sauce in with the veggies too :lol:

I've had lots of BBQ'ed stuff without sauce...like hot dogs etc....doesn't seem the same to me.

BBQ sauce doesn't make BBQ. It's the slow smoking style cooking that makes proper BBQ.

See I think you're the weird one. :lol: I couldn't put it on everything, and the hubby doesn't even like bbq sauce. We use a few different sauces for cooking on the grill, and plenty of seasonings, though. :)

2.they have no garbage bin to collect the old shingles and crap they throw off of the roof, so they start throwing stuff on our lawn.
3.I go out for the second time to inform them that there's 2 people nearly 80 living here, that need to get in and out of the house so be careful with your trash.
4.one guy starts giving me lip and speaking in French to me....
5.I lay down the law and have a huge argument with him...he's on the roof, I'm yelling from my backyard.
6.I do not care to argue first thing in the morning, not my best time.I tend to get nasty and loud.
7.he apologizes and his male coworker is looking me with daggers as I leave for work.
8.I turn around and inform them that if this lawn is not cleaned up when I return in 9 hours, life ain't gonna be pleasant for you.
9.roofing helper chick is wearing a half cut tshirt, tight jeans and is very fit.She smiles and tells me to have a good day at work.

Yep, show up on the wrong day, don't bring the proper equipment with you to do the tear-down and then argue with the customer.


and it's hard for me to be tough...standing there in my robe with my hair sticking up everywhere like Amy Winehouse on a bad day :lol:

A friend of mine is a cop - he was telling me about the roofer effect.

When neighbourhoods get to that age where many houses need to get thier roofs re-done... the B&E's in that area increase for the next few months.

They figure they can scope out houses from the roof tops, get people's schedules as when they leave, do thay have kids, is anyone home during the day - then come back and hit the prime houses.

You try not to judge but I have a pretty good sense of how things may go...this group gave me that exact vibe.Especially the one guy who didn't talk to me.I instantly felt 'trouble' just looking at him.

Pity the fool that tries to fuck with my Dad in any way...I have a weird memory for things.License of their truck was MMV-448, we'll just leave that here for later...

my Dad and I are getting our roof reshingled through insurance...

1.assholes show up at 6:10 this morning banging on our back door, they were supposed to start tomorrow.
2.they have no garbage bin to collect the old shingles and crap they throw off of the roof, so they start throwing stuff on our lawn.
3.I go out for the second time to inform them that there's 2 people nearly 80 living here, that need to get in and out of the house so be careful with your trash.
4.one guy starts giving me lip and speaking in French to me....
5.I lay down the law and have a huge argument with him...he's on the roof, I'm yelling from my backyard.
6.I do not care to argue first thing in the morning, not my best time.I tend to get nasty and loud.
7.he apologizes and his male coworker is looking me with daggers as I leave for work.
8.I turn around and inform them that if this lawn is not cleaned up when I return in 9 hours, life ain't gonna be pleasant for you.

10.hal gets a chubby and is very angry at the same time, very confusing for him.

11. Hal books a day off work and prepares lemonade for the thirsty, bodacious worker.

The grocery store I most often go to has angled parking spaces (you always park on the right side of the row as it is already angled in that direction). Yesterday I stopped after work and there was a car coming down the row as I was about to pull into it. Instead of taking the space that was closest on his side of the row, he pulls into the middle of the lane and then proceeds to back into an open space (that is only one space closer mind you) on the wrong side of the row, the whole time blocking cars on both sides (those behind him and myself as well as those behind me). I got a good look at the guy and just shook my head. Then, later in the store, I see that he's got to be at least 350 lbs and he's riding around the store on one of those motorized scooters the store supplies for the elderly and disabled.

STAND UP AND WALK YOU FUCKING FAT ASS MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!

Better make sure I get as close to the store to park as possible and then ride around in a scooter....don't want to waste any energy that could be used to get fatter. :|

Don't be surprised if they start playing it 3 times more than average every day after receiving your letter.
