S'alright for some. I get paid to run around after fat slobs who want fast food almost every fucking day... And sadly now I fucked my moving day up I'm trying to find some more shifts as I need the extra pay. A week off isn't fun when you're skint. I'd have liked to go back home and see my family and friends.

Better head off to work I suppose.
good on u for being able to stand fast food. One if my first jobs was at a McDonalds, I don't think I could ever go back to that. Too many fat slobs with shitty attitudes. Tho it was in a bug city so naturally there was a higher population of assholes to deal with.

After seeing Supersize Me I will never eat at a McDonald's again.

Im no fan of eating fast food really, but in super size you have to realize that he ate mcdonalds for every single meal and got super sized every time it was offered. It is certainly not a very true to life depiction of a normal mcdonalds patron.

What disgusted me wasn't how much he ate and what happened to him. What disgusted me was how they showed us how they prepare the food.

I like Wendy's more than any other Fast Food place.

So, my boss called me early today and insisted I rush to work. I get there and first thing he does is hand me a beer and say there isn't anything to do. I think he just wanted someone to drink with.

It's fine tho, I'm getting paid to play on the Internet and drink beer with my boss.

I think I'm in the wrong line of work.

kurandoinu · « **Reply #15449 on:** July 31, 2010, 07:45:35 AM »

^ I think most of us would agree.

Uck, up for work again. Least I have a photography outing to look forward to after and then seeing my family tomorrow

I cheered up a fair bit.

your "line of work" isnt important, what matters is that you enjoy what you do.

I work at a comic shop and my normal day consists of me sitting on my ass behind a register reading books/manga and bull shitting with one of the co-workers who happens to be on that day.
But I gotta admit that it is kinda annoying that I spent 4 years at college to be working at a comic book store. However, I like going to work and I like my co-workers. I am in no rush to do anything different.

I would LOVE to work in a comic store...

Had a pretty good day. Just got back from a photography session in town and sorting through the photos while downloading some films for my family tomorrow.

it seems that recently we have had a few b&s, anyone able to tell me why?

You wanna know what my ISP did?
They've successfully throttled download speeds for certain file extensions, geniuses.
Great, way to go bishes.
*facepalms*

Borror0 · « **Reply #15455 on:** August 01, 2010, 11:29:46 PM »

What file extensions do they throttle?

vuzedome · « **Reply #15456 on:** August 01, 2010, 11:53:23 PM »

It's pretty obvious, video files.

Please don't say comcast!

That would make me switch to another ISP. In a split second. What about .mp3 and .flac?

vuzedome · « **Reply #15459 on:** August 01, 2010, 11:59:18 PM »

Don't worry, I'm not in America, mp3 and flac are still fine, the focus is on video files, well, source is an insider, they've been testing for the past few days and from my line I can see the effects, the throttling works.
