Whats rustling your jimmies?

Fatties never forget.

Yeah, I have no intention of apologizing. The ability to fully use Microsoft Word's "advanced" (if you can call it that) features, such as tables of contents, cross references, heading styles, etc., is one of the biggest parts of our job description. I'm happy to help with some of the more difficult stuff because she's like 10 - 15 years older than me and clearly stupid in general so computers are magical to her, but at a certain point she needs to learn to do this shit herself. If I'm on PTO or unavailable what the fuck will she do then?

She showed up to work today and reminded me of a new jimmie rustler: the whole floor shakes when she walks around the office. I can tell when she enters the office because I can feel the floor shaking for 30 seconds before she turns the corner into our cube area.

Is it 2nd + floor? if your building is made like mine EVERYONE makes the damn floor shake and have footsteps a folly recorder should use... Women are the loudest, its how they walk- and none of the people in this floor are fatties, men- even the larger ones are much quieter whenever they walk around the halls etc, I guess its just the difference in how everyone walks.

damnit....i want the nets option back again

the fucking sound of the busy tone on a phone; it's like they went out of their way to design the most annoying sound in the world.

Jimmies rustled at work again. We fired an idiot a month back because he completely botched a pipe installation and it caused a massive flood that will likely cost us 100k (or rather, 10k for our deductible and god knows how much in higher premiums down the road). It was Uponor/Wirsbo pex, which is the simplest shit on the planet. You expand the pipe, slide the barbed fitting in, make sure it's in all the way, and bam you're done. What dumb fuck did instead was expand the pipe, then just shove other piece of pipe inside it, without a fitting. We actually tried to reproduce how he did it, and it's pretty difficult to do, you have to put the pipe in immediately otherwise the expanded end is too small for it to fit. The way he did it is literally pants on head retarded, and we knew it was him as he'd done all the work on that section of the building. The site supervisor checked the inventory of fittings he was working with, and sure enough he was out of couplings, so the supervisor figures that the dumb fuck instead of asking for more couplings, decided he'd try to American Inventor rig it. The worst part is, that shit actually held for 2-3 months until the temperatures dropped enough, the boiler controller ramped the heating water temperature up, the pipe got softer and finally let go at 2am on a Saturday morning when no one was on site to shut it off right away.

So we fired him, and put terminated on his paperwork, which would prevent him from applying for employment insurance. So naturally the guy complained and a bureaucrat called my bro to ask about his termination. My bro explained the situation, the bureaucrat said they understood and agreed he was terminated with cause. And then two weeks later we get a letter stating that the reasons for his termination were "unclear" and therefore they're allowing his application for EI. It doesn't make a lick of a difference to us, EI premiums don't change depending on your record, but it's fucking infuriating that this retard is probably going to rot on EI for 6 months when he cost us tens of thousands of dollars because of his stupidity.

More job jimmy rustling. I work in a pretty small niche. By virtue of the job it's brought me in contact with some...special people.

Oddly enough, there seems to be a running theme: 20-to-40 year-old women who don't know what the hell they're talking about. Armchair social-justice crusaders whining about 'gender normative stereotypes' and thin privelege. In between their wildly ignorant bitching about 'inappropriate culture appropriation' and 'copyright' they go on crusades for whatever the outrage du jour is (these are probably the same people that were throwing their weight behind that Kony2012 bullshit.) The group had to shitcan a guy some months back because some internet detective dug up a conversation he had on his Facebook wall months before- he made the mistake of having RR's general opinion on transexuals. The backlash was a holocaust, with some of the userbase going so far as to say they felt physically threatened by his employment status with the project because he was a 'cis transhater bigot.'

Jesus.

Yes, indeed.

I was at McDonald's yesterday getting a tea and an apple pie and as I was parking I saw this car in the drive thru line roll down its window, throw a plastic cup out onto the ground, and roll back up. It rustled me up something fierce. I walked down the line of cars, spotted the car that did the dumping, and in it are two super fat late teens/early 20 something pie wagons. I eye the passenger the entire way as I walk towards them and they are both staring at me. I pick up the cup that is still right next to their car, walk to the trash can that is 15 feet away, throw it out, and walk back down the line and inside without looking at them again. I make my order and it's slow inside but I eventually see the two of them at the window. They've got a bag of food coming to themandthey ordered mocha iced coffee drinks. They were the personification of everything people hate about fat people and everything the world hates about Americans.

Confused. I thought the general RR opinion was 'would fap again'.
