<div class="quote_poster">Voodoo Child Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">I just bailed my brother out. He's very thankful and says he'll straighten up his act. The only problem is that they charged him with a class C felony, punishable by 1-10 years in state prison. The charge? Tampering with evidence. The drug charge was only a misdemeanor. Just goes to show you how backwards the law can be. But the point is, my big brother could be doing up to ten years in a state prison, and his trial is tomorrow. Meanwhile, I'm being brought up on lesser charges and was given a court date of my own, because several narcotics were found in my car. They weren't mine, but it's my car, so I may take the fall. I'm calling some friends now looking for a good lawyer. In a perfect scenario, I won't pay any fines or do any time, and my brother will only get a fine and probation. Of course, life never winds up that perfect, or else I wouldn't even be in this situation to start with. It's crazy too, because we are the most nonviolent people on the planet. We just like to throw parties and have fun. That whole "Sex, Drugs, & Rock n' Roll" lifestyle is destructive but only to the self, and an individual should have the choice to be self destructive if they want to be. Instead though, my brother's got a case in between the guy going down for homicide and the guy who just held up a bank. The video for that song is legendary. One of the coolest videos of all-time, hands down.</div> Good luck with the whole situation man. That must be pretty stressing. Iggy, your response was hilarious. Your manager is amazingly forgiving. I miss working at places where you can actually interact with people while doing work lol. I have a lot of "bitchy customer" moments from my days at Tim Hortons and Silvercity. I remember my first week at Tim Hortons, they put me on the drive-through section (it is EXTREMELYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY busy during weekends), which you need to be pretty damn fast for, and I was doing cash, taking orders on the booth, AND handing out the items simultaneously. So, anyway, I'm doing that, but I'm struggling cause it's my first time. This couple pulls up, and the guy on the right hand side is spazzing like crazy. Luckily, our window faced the passenger side cause this dude was going nuts. We could see him just mumbling and talking to him self with random bursts and what not, and I think he banged his head against the steering wheel at one point. And this was all over the fact that the line for the drive-through was long (it's a weekend, what did he expect?), and we took more than a minute to get his order which was pretty damn huge in the first place. It's easy to get frustrated at food places such as Tim Hortons on drive-through, because you have no idea how fuckin hectic it is inside the place with all the orders (some amazingly large) unless you see it through the front part of the store. The most annoying thing would be those customers who took 20 "um's" and "ah's" to pick one thing, then changed thier mind. This would not only slow down my drive-through line, but piss off the other customers and prompt them say "I'm never coming back here, the wait is fuckin ridiculous"...but then they came back the next day.
I'm going on a 24 hour cruise with a bunch of friends in the morning. Tax free booze! Only bad thing about it is that I have to wake up at 5 am tomorrow...
<div class="quote_poster">CLos Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Man I work at Pizza Hut. Some people are retarded there. Like I am a CSR which means I pick up the phones and you know take orders. Typical Questions: "What's the difference between Bone-In and Bone-Out?" Just to let you know, if you don't know what that means, the wings, no bone or with bone. I just hate this question because it's annoying. "Do you have any fries?" Come on, fries?? This isn't a restaurant. We don't even have a sit-in. Anyways, I also hate it when customers call back to complain about their order and they bitch you out. They always insist that you were the one talking to them. I could've just clocked in and answered the phone for the 1st time. "Yes, I talked to earlier when I ordered and you guys sent me the wrong pizza." *Starts complaining* Also, another thing that I hate is when people don't get marinara sauce for their breadsticks and they want a free pizza or free breadsticks. WTF Was this at your job? I've been c-blocked a couple of times. By my own friends. Pisses me off.</div> I feel your Pizza Hut pain. It seems like i always get the stupid people on the phone or the ones that don't speak english. Or the ones that want to give you their life story when all they order is breadsticks. Me: Thanks for calling pizza hut. Will this be for carry-out or delivery? Customer:Carry out Mekay phone number? (puts phone number in).And your name? Customer:Choma. Me: ?what can i get for you? Customer: what? I don't understand what you just said. Me: what....can....I...get...for...you? Customer: well i never ordered from pizza hut before. What do you think your best pizza is? You talk really fast but i trust your judgement. Me: well personally i like a hand tossed with just cheese. Customer: whats a hand tossed? i dont think i want that. whats that one theyre showing on TV right now? Me: the P'zone? Customer: what the hell is a P'zone. (she wasnt being rude. and i didnt know it was a she until she showed up. i assumed she was an old man) Me: its basically a calzone. The toppiings are inside. Customer: So its a stromboli? Me: no its a calzone. Customer: ok. well i dont think i want that either.What else do you have? Me: well we have Pan pizza, hand tossed, thin and crispy, and stuffed crust. We also have breadsticks, cheesesticks, cinnamon sticks, hot wings, mild wings, and boneless wings. Customer: whats the cheapest? Me: breadsticks. Customer: well can i just get a large pan pizza with extra cheese and mushrooms. Me: (sighs) ok. Will that be all? Customer: Yells into the background: DO YOU WANT ANYTHING ELSE? Me:............(rolls eyes) Customer: yea. Me: ok. you can pick it up in 15 to 20 minutes. Customer: I'll be there in 10. Me: ok. Thank you Customer: welcome.Bye. that went on for about 20 mins.
What also kinda annoys me is when when even though you stick your hand out to take the money, the customer still just arrogantly tosses the money on the counter..wth? I don't mind if you just place the money on the counter, but don't toss it on the counter like a prick. I also kinda hate when customers wait till you're about to go on your lunch to start buggin you. One time I had gotten some McDonalds(yes I know, it's the devil) and I had clocked out already and started walkin towards the break room, with my food and drink in my hands..and some lady tries to grab me so they can drop off film..I'm like "Ma'am...im on my lunch. Just notify the person up front and they'll page somebody to help you." Then she just scowls and walks away..smh dont act like u didnt see the food in my hands.
lol looks im going to enter the fast-food business. My sister is going to hook me up with a job at Wendy's. Enough is enough, I was going to try to get a job like Best Buy but nothing came up. I need money now.
I see McDonalds or telemarketing as a backup if I don't get a good job soon... But I really don't want to go back to telemarketing.
<div class="quote_poster">Legacy Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Haha, poor Smitty. </div> I'm sayin. You see a big ol black dude with some McDonalds in his hands, do you really think he's gonna wait to eat his food for you? No no.
I've never tried Mcdonalds, but I probably wouldn't enjoy working there. Tim Hortons wasn't bad at all, I just got annoyed with the coffee smell, but looking back, that was the most fun I've ever had at a job. The people were awesome and I have a lot of memories from that place. Silvercity would have been if I had stayed longer, but it was still fun. The job was ridiculously easy and didn't even really feel like a job. Next year though, I'm going to start applying early for a job. With Uni, I finish way before the high school kids so even if I were to not get a government student job, I could still apply for the "regular" jobs (i.e- Walmart, Tim Hortons, etc) and get it before the high school kids start applying in June or so.
I heard Costco isn't too bad. Like $10-11 an hour serving those samples. I might apply there like next year.
Man, working at that factory opened up my eyes. There's guys in there with University degrees, wrapping skids and flipping around 50 pound boxes of "Two Scoop Raisin Brans" for money. It's a wierd feeling. The other day I was talking to this one guy who's company got shut down and he had to resort to working there (I'm assuming temporarily). In all honesty, I feel especially sorry for the females working there. I think they should go for much easier jobs, but that's just me. Hell, even working at Mcdonalds is better. Yeah, you might get one or two dollars less (it's 10/hour there) but atleast it's not difficult or so demanding. Some of the women have to wrap skids (although they're those much smaller ones) and reptitively do one task for 8 hours...I personally don't like seeing that happen. Edit: I was listening to some old songs that remind me of my younger days and "Californication" and "Scar Tissue" by RCHP were two songs that I really liked. I found I had a song called "Road Trippin'" by them, which is a great song. I should listen to more of their stuff, I like the vocalist's voice (don't know the dude's name, the guy who sang Californication), it's quite unique.
So my sister gets to be on some Afghani talk show here in the Bay Area cause they want talented kids. So my sister is gonna go on the show and show some of the drawings she's made. It's gonna be funny watching her on TV.
I don't think so. Basically I have like 900 songs on my iPod but need to put them on my new laptop. I don't know how to do that.
<div class="quote_poster">MrJ Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Is there any way to put songs on your iPod into a new computer?</div> Nope. Gridiron Gang is a great movie
PWNED. My friend just sent me a message saying she got pulled over by the cops this morning for speeding, but shes on a suspended license already, so she had to go down to the station and get pwnt.
I don't think you can transfer songs from your ipod to a computer. Hell, you can't even transfer songs from one computer onto an ipod different than your own without having all the other songs on the ipod erased. They really need to fix this.
