Thanks for clearing that up. I had no idea what you were talking about and just chalked it up to you being crazy.

When a pickle tub at a bbq bar that has always had dill pickles inexplicably has sweet bread pickles instead without warning or notice

I've received three calls AND emails from three different people from the SAME RECRUITING COMPANY in the last two days during business hours. You'd think someone would put a little note on the file that says "This guy has a job he likes, leave him alone."

The kicker is that the first guy I talked to mentioned that it was with [amazing company] for [amazing pay] so I basically said, you know what, that's *just* enough to get me to consider jumping ship, just send me the info so I don't have to DISCUSS ANOTHER JOB OFFER WHILE I'm IN THE OFFICE and I'll look over it and PASS IT ALONG TO MY OTHER, MORE AVAILABLE AND INTERESTED FRIENDS. Which he never did.

So my current theory is that the unemployment rate is so high because nobody even knows how the fuck to hire a person.

I read an article where companies are in a tizzy because they can't find enough people to hire.

Just because there's a lot of people out of work doesn't mean that enough of them are qualified for the positions that are open, the more technical of which can be extremely rarefied. But it seems businesses have lost a lot of their willingness or ability to train new hires. Witness R^2's earlier comment about how weird it was that they were actually telling him his responsibilities.

I bet I got hired based solely on the fact that I had a difficult-to-obtain certification from my old job, which was about to lapse, but was able to be renewed when I got hired on. No expense to my new company to get the certification.

Out of curiosity, what was the cert? Something to do with aircraft maintenance?

<TedBelmont> What the
<TedBelmont> My roommate is...
<TedBelmont> Howling at her dog.
<TedBelmont> Or maybe whining?
<TedBelmont> I'm not sure
<TedBelmont> I think she's making fun of him
<TedBelmont> Either way, it's incredibly obnoxious and it makes me want to punch her in the goddamn face

Considering that she routinely calls him a "dickturd"(whatever the hell that is), and prefers to lock him in her room and ignore him rather than train or discipline him, and when he whines and scratches at the door, she yells at him, I'd say no.

Lottel · « **Reply #1794 on:** September 12, 2011, 10:44:57 AM »

Beat her up, take the dog, fight crime.

Imma say you should go with Lottel's answer then.

Cover her in strips of raw venison.
