Nidan1 Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 Emplyees are a funny lot....I came into work early this morning because it was snowing like hell again. After driving a few miles west towards my job...the snow band JUST ENDS...nothing not even a flake. There are four fecking inches in my yard, but five miles west of there...not a speck....but I digress...so now I'm in here at 0430, for nothing mind you, because there is no snow. I walk in to my Telephone Maintenance Center, and my midnight guy is snoozing, lights out and all. Then he yells at me for walking in UNANNOUNCED!!!! I'm the fecking boss, I tell him...if I want to walk in unannounced I WILL!!! sheesh, what is the world coming to? I could have fired his ass on the spot for premeditated sleeping on the job, there is no union here, but why would I do that?...I'm not a hard ass, and when I was a technician, I dozed off a few times myself on the midnight to eight shift. I'm just wondering when, being warned first became an entitlement? I need to really retire for good, I can't take this anymore. I could live like a Duke in Australia, on my retirement pension...hmmmmm, Noba, Speedy , do either of you have a spare room? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many memos have you missed? I could live like a Duke in Australia, on my retirement pension...hmmmmm, Noba, Speedy , do either of you have a spare room? Now THERE'S an idea! I say we all jump on board this proposal, throw our collective shoulders against the wheel and send Nidan to Australia. Can you think of anything more fitting for all involved? Nidan moves to Australia and Australia has to put up with him. It's a win-win situation. For the rest of us, that is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You forgot Mace and AJ, but I'm sure they'd opt for your retirement in northern Ohio. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Radley Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 Originally quoted by Seanachai in that <small> goddam</small> thread: It's alright, Dave H. You're capable of greater things. If you want to read good 'Historical' novels, read EcoUmberto Eco??? That explains soooo much. Now it's all clear. The mind numbing length of your posts. The torrents of dross we have to wade through until we finally (sometimes, quite by accident) come upon your point. I knew it was somehow familiar. It's because you're trying to emulate some hack who probably gets paid by the word, who, right in the middle of a story, stops and goes on for fifteen freakin' pages on how they made glass in the middle ages. Hey, if I want that information, I'll do a bleedin' Google search! Otherwise, GET ON WITH IT! I'll bet you're a big Jean Auel fan, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 <font size=22> Does everyone remember MrSpkr's wonderful rotating mass email to all our work addresses? </font> Well, Mr. Spkr has just emailed me, rather foolishly, from his work email address. I will divulge the identity of his place of business, and for no extra cost, provide you with his email address there. Shall we start the bidding at 20 American dollars? I accept cash, cheque, Western Union Money Transfer, or Paypal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, what with that and baiting Gaylord, you must not be that busy down at the office. You work for the Florida Election Board, don't you? Yes, I imagine there's an awful lot of open-mouthed, staring off into space going on there, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalem Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Originally posted by Joe Shaw: dalem ... time's a wasting there bubba, what's the plan for Monday? I'll be arriving around noon ... shall I expect a limo? Joe Yes. No. Maybe. You are too. Noon Monday.... Alright I will send an email around tonight and get something figured out. I think we have decided on a cheesey mall of America venue for the evening - Papa Khann wants to go back to Camp Snoopy, and it's near the airport, which I guess is near your hotel. My email is in my profile - is yours working? You'd mentioned problems. Hello? Is this thing on? And you get in at noon, but I assume you have to go do some work related thing in the afternoon? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rleete Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Originally posted by Berlichtingen: *lights up a Camel*Yeah, you utterly contemptable bastard, I'm here. Unlike some of the most prolific id-jits, I prefer to remain in the shadows. You had me *this close* to smoking again. If there had been a stubbed out butt available, I would have re-lit it. Fortunately for me, I anticipated this weakness, and disposed of all temptations. So, I swore at both of us that night. But I'm still smoke free.

Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me... BTW... Good going with the no smoking, if you managed to do without while playing fiefdom, then I think you've got it cracked.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
