Any new stories today? I've really been looking forward to this thread each day. I'm kind of sad you're leaving tomorrow. I'd like to see this thing really unfold, like a bad sitcom.
haha rf! I guess I could stay there, not go to grad school, and just deal with the abuse for the sake of your amusement., lol.
so today, the tool was rather quiet and nervous around me all day. I'm sure my boss' wife, aka Babe, said something to him last night and this morning he set the new guy straight. There is no way it's a coincidence he did an about face for no reason. So hopefully there are no more stories as, come 5pm tomorrow, I'm outta there!!
WTF IS WRONG WITH THE AMERICAN NEWS MEDIA, AND WHY THE FUCK DOES MY OLD MAN HAVE TO WATCH IT! THEY HAVE TALKED ABOUT THAT BRIDGE FOR THREE FUCKING DAYS NOW AND BEFORE THAT IT WAS HILLARY'S CLEAVAGE.
ap...maybe they are trying to draw some running conclusions.....about clevage and failing bridge....maybe....
they want you to think she is a ticking time bomb....when
they go they go.....
my cad computer....not hooked to the internet....says, "you have performed and illegal operation." This is the third time....Do you think I'm destined to a Bill Gates financed Prision for LIFE?
Computers don't have to be hooked to the internet to perform an illegal operation. It may be trying to access memory in a sector that doesn't exist. I may be trying to overwrite a windows program file. It might just be out of virtual memory. Illegal in that sense doesn't mean you broke the law. It means that if your computer didn't have any restrictions, you'd really be screwed. It just tried to perform a task that it has been told not to do.
You'll have to forgive me snooker. I deal with people who think like that EVERY DAY. We do lots of computer systems in small town grocery stores. Needless to say, most of their employees aren't the most computer literate people in the world. You be surprised how many people have called because they couldn't find the "any" key. You'd also be surprised how many times a day we make $100 just telling people to reset their computers. Its ridiculous.
there was a crazy guy at the bus stop near ucla who kept repeating the phrase "go to vegas for the porno convention, love from san francisco"...then there was another crazy guy walking around screaming, "elohim [unintelligible yelling] elohim...etc" wtf?...then while i was at an intersection in the big blue bus, i watched through the window a homeless lady putting mascara on...
Dammson, I was at work about a month ago and all the ladies at the reception desk started screaming, so everyone in our wing of the building ran to see what was going on. It turns out there was a homeless guy having diarrhea in our parking lot. It seemed to go on forever. Its an image I will have seared in my mind for all eternity. The part that kills me, is there was a brand new Walmart just down the street. So new, he hadn't even had a chance to get kicked out of the damn thing. But he couldn't hold it for 3 more minutes? He had to empty himself right behind my truck? WTF?!
WTF! Project due today, found out this morning the electrical engineer quit (last day was last Friday)! He completely dropped my project, didn't pass on any of the changes/conversation we'd had over the last few weeks to the new engineer. I get 100% complete drawings from this guy, and they are the same as last month's progress set! Didn't pick up anything! Nice, now that's professionalism!
I had something similar happen to me years ago....the guy quit his engineering job to move to Hawaii to work in a McDonalds....boy oh
boy were things a mess.
oh ya? the guy across from me eats trace paper! wtf?! ya, he EATS trace paper! crumples big wads of it, then eats it. you hear his nasty saliva chewing! one more time: WTF?!
while we're at it...
also wtf?! same guy engages in angry space bar pounding (ASBP); but like really loud! wtf?!
oh ya! that same guy you're talking about CB9.....well, guess what, i know one just like him!!
this guy, we call him Tookereh.....check out www.tookereh.com....coming soon....
he DOES eat paper, he has upgraded, it started out with trace.
Apparently there wasnt enough 'paper' flavor in trace.
So it's paper now, but you know what i say......I DONT GIVE A C**P WHAT YOU EAT, JUST DONT DO IT SO LOUDLY......
ASBP is the most annoying....along with
'Hi Honey....What's up?'
and
'umm, hmm.....huhhh?'
can anyone HELP???
any suggestions on how we can tell him off????
...anonymous note....
.....email....
....straight out confront him.....
Why is the California Building Code so much a pain in the butt?! I mean, really, I get that we need to protect people from buildings and such, but some of these things seem over the top. Stupid City comments and their silly notes! And whats with the multi coloured pages...they don't seem to mean anything. Did they print on blue, white and yellow paper just for fun!?! Ahh!
The architect mag has a section for jobs, architectjobs.com, and most of them are STILL for computer people. I know we've discussed how the computer industry has usurped the term architect, but come on, you're an Architecture magazine, you could at least take the time to sort the geeks from the designers. If I want to sort it myself, I'd look for employment through yahoo.
I think it is time to retire from Archinect.com You have truly exceeded posting useless comments and have gone beyond anyones expectations in posting useless questions. You might want to get a part time job to fill these wasted hours. sorry.
This morning when I got up early to go walk the dogs, I notice an
old Avis moving Truck parked on our neighbors front lawn. They
are the renters from hell. I say ya hoo! da be moving. Then when
I'm coming back I realize the guys are setting up for a tag sale, yard sale, rummage sale or ya basic junk sale. They guys look like they just crawled out from under a mobile home. I didn't say anything to them cause well they looked like they would also be the type to be packing. So as the morning passes I take the dogs out for another walk and I see their sign out on the main road which I recall from a junk store located on the other side of town but I'm always passing by it and every time I see it I think geeze don't we have zoning laws
for a reason. So I come back in the house and call the guy who actually owns the house cause he is a nice guy, and is only renting due to the economy. He took a big hit with the subprime mortgage business. I ask him if he has any idea as to what is going on next door. He is absolutely in the dark about the whole thing. Then he goes on to tell me the fricking renters have not paid rent and he has turned it over to a property management company to evict them because he cann't deal with them and figures if the management gets them out sooner he will be loosing less money. He thanks me and says he will have the property manager drive by and see what is up. I also mention we had the police visiting earlier this week so things are not good in the eyes of the neighbors....oh and they missed taking their trash out last monday night so it has been sitting curbside for the week ( four adults in the house and they can't get the trash out....and well looks like three of them aren't working and the other only part time.) So about this time the Avis truck shows up
with more junk.... I'm so pissed but, I don't want to get in the middle of this thing cause the wackos are just next door and who knows what they are capable of. So I bide my time today working on hoping a fricking thunderstorm comes and drives them away but no such luck.
So this evening I go outside and they have a tent set up in the yard
with all the junk inside of it .....So I guess were in for another day of
Tag Sale. The owner did say he would stop by to see what is going on. I figure one of the other neighbors might call the police because
it is clearly a commercial venture taking place in our residential neighborhood which is not allowed. I would feel different if the renters were somehow participating in the tag sale but they be just hanging in the shade and taking their cut.
ha. take it easy buddy, i'm joking. but seriously, that would piss me off to the point that there would be punches thrown next door. set the tent on fire one night.
[url=http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25356069/>1=43001]What the ...? N.C. offers new license plates
If you know what WTF means in text-speak, you’ll understand why[/url]
RALEIGH, N.C. - Thanks to some text message-savvy grandchildren, North Carolina drivers whose license plates have the potentially offensive “WTF” letter combination can replace the tags for free.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reported Tuesday that the state Division of Motor Vehicles has notified nearly 10,000 holders of license plates with the letter combination. Officials learned last year that the common acronym stands for a vulgar phrase in e-mail and cell phone text messages.
But this week, the DMV officials got another surprise when they learned that the same letters appeared on the agency’s own Web site on a sample personalized plate.
“I can’t believe it,” DMV Commissioner Bill Gore said Monday when told about the online glitch. “Obviously, I didn’t know it was there.”
Officials are working to remove the sample plate.
The WTF-5505 used on the Web site’s sample plate was the first random letter combination available when the DMV switched from blue- to red-lettered plates, officials said. DMV spokeswoman Marge Howell received a sample plate WTF-5506 to use as a prop for news stories about the switch.
A 60-year-old technology teacher from Fayetteville complained about the plate last July after her teenage grandchildren clued her in.
WTF???
Its better than toots, dame, broad, legs, honey, sweetie, etc...
Seriously, though, who the hell would get engaged to this guy? I think THAT is the million dollar question.
where is he from?
upstate NY
No wonder WTD.....Next thing you know is he will be asking you if you want to go clubbing...
believe me, he's alluded to it. his overt chauvinism makes that accent sound like fingers on a chalkboard.
