I thought you got fired for touching a piece of clay?

I thought you got fired for touching a piece of clay?

Nah. It was later determined that some verbal opinion about said clay got me fired.

[Violet]

The verbal might have been what they told him he got fired over.

Edit: :p vad

A CEO being paid 10/hour.

I'm literally on the 3rd tier from the top of my company right now.

CEO
Director of Operations
Regional Managers <- Me @ 10/hr (THey say I might ONE DAY GET 12.50/HR!!! OMG)
Accounting/blah blah blah
Dispatchers
Site Supervisor
Officers

[Vad]

The fuck. Why?

[Undrask]

Because all security companies are cheap and shitty in this state.

[Vad]

Get me a job D:

Joking aside. Do they actually plan to give you a proper wage?

[Jonathan Meer]

That hierarchy doesn't make any fucking sense. I've never heard of an hourly regional manager position.

Gonna look goddamn LEGIT on a resume though.

[King B]

What does your security company actually secure?

[Tyr]

His genital from women.

[Undrask]

We secure a ton of shit. A lot of industrial sites, we have contracts with Apple stores in the region, just TONS of shit. In this region alone I manage at least like, 200 people. Granted 90% of the problems come from like, 2 places, but that's how it goes.

I SHOULD be getting a salary of 2k/month (about 12.50/hr if you break it down to 40 hr weeks) but instead I'm getting paid 10/hr. Dunno why.

Yeah, I'm pretty much keeping this position BECAUSE of the resume potential I figure if I can last 6 months and then QUIT for money reasons, I'll look like the bigger man.

[Jonathan Meer]

You will look like a very big man

[Vad]

Meer knows about big men.

[Undrask]

You will look like a very big man

If there's anything I'm good at, it's making myself look more impressive than I really am.

[Jonathan Meer]

I know about big men because I am a big man

[Valora Crow]

If there's anything I'm good at, it's making myself look more impressive than I really am.

No. You are not allowed to deflate my image of you. >_>

[Undrask]

Hate: stupid bastard friends making me have to come get em and ruin a perfectly good night. Now I gotta go to court to contest 2 more tickets cause I got caught hauling ass out there. Mother fuckers.

Like: The two sticks of RAM suddenly just working well together, after a month separate.

System was running fine at a single stick (4 GB) when I got it, but crashed every half-hour to an hour on the double sticks (8 GB total). Put the second stick in today, and it's working perfectly.

Neutral: They're remaking All Quiet on the Western Front and its supposed to be out sometime near the end of next year. The main character (Paul) is being played by Daniel Radcliffe. I don't know how I should feel about this.

[Undrask]

Raddie is a great actor outside of HP (not that he's particularly bad in those) but I can't say I know enough about All Quiet to make a judgement on his placement.
