Didn't buy a thing.

Going to be suprised if anyone shows up. Apparently now Rio has a super bacteria in the water.

Told a friend I pick up $600/month on the side picking up dog shit. He said "That's gross!". I said "Nope, that's net".

Been asked by a couple of companies on my thoughts and what can be done. All Autodesk products (AutoCad, Revit, Inventor, Advanced Steel) is going to subscription only this month. THere issues are they don't like to upgrade when it's working as it is, not to mention a lot of plug ins they use...

West Texas had a hell of a day. Temp dropped from 106F to 50F in 15 minutes and the wind picked up. Wind blew over semis. Sounds like fun.

Never tried it in snow, but it helps a LOT in our area in the winter for a very thin set of circumstances. We don't get snow, but we will get up to an inch of ice at times. We get ice a lot. I tried to make it to work 2 years ago when the interstate was closed and basically no traffic. I...

Doing the one down the throat to the stomach at the same time. I've had that done before. It was no big deal at all. For that one the didn't even really put me all the way out.

Already screwed up my colonoscopy instructions. It's scheduled for Thursday. Figured I would look at the instructions since I know I have to start the stuff a day or two before. Apparently no corn for 7 days before. Well tough shit I guess. Today was the 4th, eat 3 big ears of corn on the cob as...

They make auto bikes now.

Had a guest speaker while in school for forestry/wildlife management that went on about natural foods and such. Said he was a big consumer of soy beans. Well unless you grow them yourself soybeans get more herbicide/pesticides and no telling what else sprayed on them than any other crop. Guy was...

Amazon prime sale is July 12th. Wonder if it will suck as bad as last year.

Using your own bike or one they provide? I think the state ones here use a Honda rebel and the Harley place provides a Buell if you don't have a bike.

Talking with someone on this subject this morning. Seems there is a compressed time frame now, people expect to get a job and be in charge/the boss/successful the first day. Doesn't work that way. Even the people I know that have degrees they weren't hired to be the boss. The people without a...

Tour starts tomorrow. Guessing they won't get within 50 miles of a "refugee" camp so the helicopter doesn't show it by mistake.

My dad. Parents got a new mower and I make note that it's got a lot more horsepower than the old one, you can mow much faster now. "Nope, it means I can't wait longer and go longer in between mowing". Nice. Gotta love the retired. Don't give a fuck to a T.

This was mildly entertain, most of the stuff I've seen have been mostly demo type stuff to show off the BR. But not really long lasting entertainment. Also this guys channel is pretty good if you remember old games/dos and such.

Best part is people bitching they can't get ahead because of the system. Won't listen to people who beat the same system at all. Won't seek out or listen to them at all. People who started with nothing and wound up with something in the same time period. It's NOT FAIR. Seriously? Make a point of...

I would say word of mouth, but in retail you may attract people who just want to socialize while on the clock. No idea bout retail. My best deal for hiring from the lowest guy on the payroll on up has been word of mouth. You can instantly get a deecent idea about the person from who recommended...

Electricians here do well, but outside of construction the majority of them work in the instrumentation and industrial areas where it's much more stable and the pay once you get past going "what is that" is better. There are a ton of trades that have done well and probably continue to do well...

I only saw one black person for the majority of time I was in college. I got to know him pretty well. He was also one of the "whitest" people I ever met. His parents were from Dallas. He didn't like the black cultue at all so he went to a redneck school.

Somewhere along the way a good portion of people got it in their mind they have to be a big shot, fulfilled, a dream job or whatever at work. It's a job. You go to work, earn money to take care of your family. You do what you gotta do and the rest of the time is your time to be satisfied. If...

I know this will get laughed at. But give up on the dream job and just get a job that pays. Don't bitch and whine and be an above average worker with a decent attitude and you will move up. I'm not at my dream job. I don't work with anyone at their dream job. The ones I count as sucessful aren't...

McDonalds here in southwest MS and Baton Rouge starts at just over $11/hour according to my BIL who is supervisor for half the franchise. I can't see getting anyone of quality for $12/hour but I guess it's heavily dependent on location.

Well that's just odd. Ronald McDonald shot at North Carolina Sonic | WREG.com

I'm sure you get more at the lower pay rates. But I can list a half dozen or more people with very good salary ranges that just went full retard and either bankrupt a 50 year company or caused it to be sold off.

Depends on the state, but in TX you can use a title company and get the same service and they actually will put their 2 cents in since their fee isn't a comission based on the sale. That's how I have bought and sold every piece of property/house. Just have the title company deal with it, they...

I got the SkyUI and got it going. I tried to put in the customizable favorites menu mod but so far I'm either too stupid to get it to work in game right or whatever. Really just want a mod that allows you to set up sets of armor/weapons/spells and hotkey them and have them change. I have a...

They said they settled to avoid further legal expenses. I smell a class action suit coming lol.

I would use one of the new phoblc words that are now popular, but 5 seconds after I heard/learned them I forgot what it was.

If it's hot water you should hear the hot water heater come on and off if you listen long enough, if you're not running hot water for something else.

Our parent company is in the bay area. We had to help them on a job. The amount of shit and mass bulk weight of a job due to seismic shit was unreal. Our side of the company said never again, lose our number lol. The amount of labor on a job was incredible. A two story building would be 2 to 3...

Clarkson leaves Top Gear, whole country goes into crisis.

It has to be free range and organically grown MRE's.

No I definetly would be more worried about a fire, followed by a mudslide. Both of those can be managed for but they don't.

Yeah I wanted to say the same. You can make a living with your hands, but you have to work at it. Our "tackers" start at $15-$20/hour and welders with experience who can set up a machine, weld in any posistion, the more difficult alloys and such will make $50-$60 per hour. I know pipeliners make...

Different industry obviously, but I always ask about turnover and when their last layoff was. Some people seem shocked you ask. One owner told me "you know, man up and man down". Yeah no thanks.

Don't believe anything the recruiter says.
