Turned in my letter of resignation today. When they asked me why, I simply reminded them that today is my twelfth consecutive day off.

Please tell me they said "We're going to miss you" at some point.

Or alternatively guilt tripped you about you quitting and having to replace you.

R^2 · « **Reply #2183 on:** June 30, 2012, 08:21:20 PM »

Nah, there's still plenty of time for that over the next two weeks though. Everyone else is going on vacation so I actually have some hours to work there. For now. :V

I had to deliver to the top floor of a tall building and the elevators where broken. So I climbed all the way up and made it through a labyrinth of a office floor to find the lady and then couldn't find the same stairwell. I made it into one and got all the way down and noticed none of the doors had handles. They were all locked doors with no handles. So I climbed back up all the flights of stairs and there's no way out. I was locked in a stuffy, unair-conditioned stairwell for about 40 minutes before someone found me.

My legs hurt, guys.

AND while typing this my boss called and said ghosts attacked the store. A ghost thew a sign down some stairs and another (but maybe the same ghost) toppled over a high chair.

Lottel, there are no ghosts.

Lottel · « **Reply #2186 on:** July 03, 2012, 01:22:08 AM »

We DID have a ghost convention right across the street last week.

Well, whatever you do, just don't cross the streams.

My first training day at work is cushy time-and-a-half holiday pay.

Mongrel · « **Reply #2189 on:** July 04, 2012, 08:49:46 AM »

Oh hey, you got a new job already?

That is... better than previous instances!

I know, right?

Job search in Atlanta: Five months, no success, move to Nashville.

Job search in Nashville: Five months, eventual success.

Job search in Denver: Two weeks.

A place where you can get a job after only two weeks of searching seems like a fossil in this day and age.

I guess Denver really is the last dinosaur.

Total Recall - Two Weeks

Mongrel · « **Reply #2194 on:** July 04, 2012, 06:51:22 PM »

Wait wait... I think I've figured this one out.

Isn't the entire state of Colorado on fire right now?

R^2 · « **Reply #2195 on:** July 05, 2012, 03:24:42 AM »

It's true. I'm no longer absorbing the misfortune of the entire state I live in.

Mongrel · « **Reply #2196 on:** July 05, 2012, 06:14:32 AM »

So, your problems are solved, but only if you agree to live in a hellish wasteland damned by the gods.

Sounds about right.

R^2 · « **Reply #2197 on:** July 05, 2012, 07:06:27 AM »

I actually live in the part of the state not currently on fire. You're thinking of Bongo Bill.

Or Nickasummers, I think.

More like his problems are solved as long as the misery of those in the surrounding area is proportional to the misery he himself would be suffering. If it takes the scorching of thousands of square miles of America's most cherished, pristine parks and lands (plus Colorado Springs) for R^2 to get a job, well then so be it.

Starr's take was that all the smoke is obscuring God's view, so he's having trouble aiming the lightning bolts.
