So anyway, I was just reminded about Gizoogle.net. You know how there’s an International Talk Like a Pirate Day? Well, Gizoogle.net translates a website into (oh, what’s the best way to put this?) street speak. I just used Gizoogle.net to re-read the last two posts on my site here and it was hilarious. Two posts…

Merry Tuesday
Seriously. Christmas is on a Tuesday this year. This isn’t a holiday, it’s playing hooky from work. Maybe I’d Understand Better if I Were A Christian, but I call shenanigans on Christmas on a Tuesday. So this week I get to work Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday? I had to work yesterday. I have to…
The case against having your vacation bank displayed on your paycheck stub
(or as we say in the business, your voucher) So, it’s 4 or 5 days from December. The good news is that I get paid on Thursday. This is the time of year when phrases like “black out dates”, “year end”, “working on Saturdays” and “Fuck you Christmas on Tuesday*” get bandied about the office….
Random Grumble: September ’12
You know what really annoys the eff out of me? When people comment on news articles, blog posts, message boards, etc something like “I’m reading this at work and laughed so hard I spit coffee on my keyboard!” How do these people have time to read the internet at work? And drink coffee at the…
Work bitch
As opposed to work, bitch! (Ha ha. I kill me) So the new girl @ work…I think I will call her…Lacey. I…just don’t know about this girl. She’s in her late 20s but has the maturity of a 19 year old. Seriously. It’ll be (gloriously) dead quiet in our work area and all of a…
Job please?
So, I had my lunch job interview on Friday. I think it went well. This was my first lunch interview and even though it was fast casual Japanese food it was still pretty awkward. She ordered hers with no rice and with water to drink; I ordered mine with fried rice and diet soda. So…
25 lbs of owie
So, I picked up Scooby briefly the other day. Gene thinks that’s how I hurt my back but I disagree. However, what the hell, he’s probably right. I still love picking up my Scooby-Doo, even if he currently smells like a petting zoo. (Rhymes totally unintended)
Bad Gnus…
No dice on the new job. Dammit, dammit, dammmmmmmmmit. I’m doomed to Big Payroll forever, aren’t I? 🙁
Worklife…
(Alternate Title: Is it February yet?) So, I had a first interview for the out of the blue job I got the call about two weeks ago… And a second interview yesterday. And now I’m sort of patiently waiting for a call or an email or a carrier pigeon or a fax or a smoke…
The Isle of Big Payroll…
OMG, I have a job interview tomorrow @ 2 PM. I am SO SO SO excited. I keep thinking of that “I hope I get it” song from (I think) “A Chorus Line”. OMG OMG OMG I want this job so bad. Honestly, it’s not even that I want this particular job, it’s that I…
