Are there no good samaritans left?
Feb. 18th, 2009 05:24 pmI just had a tire blowout from the inside rim. I didn't know what was happening, so I pulled into a busy grocery store parkinglot, taking the nearest two parkingspots so that I'd have room to check out/replace my tire. As I was doing so, atleast 30-40 people passed by me either on foot, or in their vehicles. The only person who noticed me was a guy in a modified pickup who honked and swore at me for taking up two spaces.
Everyone else just looked the other way so they wouldn't feel guilty.
I love this place. -_-

A sign of the times...
Jan. 30th, 2009 01:48 pmThe amount of collection calls for people who used to have our home phone number are skyrocketing. The scary part? They're all for different people.
I'm just glad all of the collection calls are not for us.

So of course I come across this AFTER the election, but I'm wondering if it's real...
Dell SUPERDELL Schanze for Governor
This guy is crazy and scares the poop out of me. (see? no swearing, I'm THAT serious) I don't know ANYONE that would want to vote for him. The site seems pretty serious, but Dell has a huge ego, and is just an idiot.
Can anyone in Utah verify the validity of this?
BTW: read his blog, its in the "about" section. This guy is nuts.

Ruby Tuesday Blows up the wrong building!
Aug. 5th, 2008 01:59 pmOMG this is hilarious. Ruby Tuesday's been advertising that they are blowing up the last old building they have, but when it comes time to explode, the wrong building collapses.
I know both buildings look the same, but there are DIFFERENT SIGNS on the front!
Ruby Tuesday even has an apology letter when going to their site.

This really happened...
Sep. 18th, 2007 12:59 amI had to write it down so that I can continue to convince myself this actually took place.
Me: I'm going to go get a fuel log and light a fire in the fireplace.
Stepdad: Don't do that!
Me: Why not?
Stepdad: I'm trying not to waste energy
Double Ewe Tee EFF!!!! He didn't want to waste electricity BURNING a log.
Things are getting very strange around here...

work frustrations
May. 14th, 2007 05:00 pmI show up at work today and get told that I have to move for new employees and that I'm getting a new sup.
wtf? I'm only here 2 more weeks.
I just find it funny that they pay me for 30-45 minutes to be in meeting to move all my stuff temporarily.

It's been decided
May. 11th, 2007 01:18 amI put in my two weeks today. It's finally starting to feel real that I'm REALLY moving back home....
After the whole sickness thing, I had a meeting with my supervisor, and they tried to intimidate me with the whole "you should have been fired because of your points, but I'm sticking my neck out for you"
I have one word: bullshit.
I had documented proof (not to mention a big freakin' bruise on my ass from getting a shot), that this was out of my control, and it was bad enough to consider going to the E.R.
Instead of going over metrics and what I need to improve, I just told them it's not worth trying to put fear in me, this is my two week's notice.
They also said because of the point that was added on because of my emergency, that they'll refuse to transfer me to another location as well.
This company is REALLY not in the business to keep it's employees.
I'm going to have sooooooooo much fun in my exit interview. It will definitely torch some bridges.

Something to make one hate the RIAA more
Apr. 19th, 2007 03:49 pmIn a Houston, Texas, case, UMG v. Hightower, the RIAA has served a subpoena on the defendant's son, a high school student, on one day's notice, telling him to be at a lawyer's office at 9:00 a.m. the next day, a school day, for a deposition. Read more here
Just one gripe
Apr. 15th, 2007 03:55 pmIf you live in the Utah area this is for you. everyone does not need to worry.
If you were upset about Comcast using the EAS system every 15 minutes for a girl who took her 5 month old child that needed medical attention and actually CALLED to complain about it, you guys really need to take another look at what's more important.
Your recording of Babylon 5 or a CHILD'S LIFE
I see an easy answer here.
I really hate seeing how people are turning out in this day and age.

Feb. 17th, 2007 01:03 amI am getting bitter with Myspace.... I've gone from just deleting scam account invites to swearing at people.
I'm contemplating getting rid of my account.

My head a'splode...
REAL conversation with a customer over the phone:
Me: "Thank you for calling Comcast, my name is Andrea, how can I help you today?
Customer: "Hi I have the deal that's at 99 a month for all three services..."
Me: "What is your question?"
Customer: "I just want to know which of my three services is most expensive"
Me: *silence* " You are on a year promotion that runs 33 dollars for each service."
Customer: "Yes, but which one is more expensive?"
I have had about 30 other calls just like this.
And most of them are the "Authority" on how their service works...
I really hate the general public.
