    same here. I can barely finish a tall boy of PBR without gagging, but pour it from a tap, and I like it better than bud, miller, or coors. idn_smilie.gif
  3. I went to a grocery store and saw that they had a bunch of premade nice looking burritos (not the frozen kind, but the fresh kind), so I picked up 2 breakfast burritos to have as dinner last night and lunch today. So as I am putting one in the microwave, I look at the wrapper...

    The chicken fried steak MEAL at Denny's has only 1000ish calories, why don't I just go there instead. freak.gif

  4. Condescending attitudes from a manager is a good indication that they are not a good manager, or so I have gathered from my experiences.

    *Sigh of relief*


    I had a meeting with the manager, someone else is leaving too, which solves a problem. No mojor position changes are forseen, no job cuts are forseen. Work load will increase a little, but thats not a huge deal.


    Safe... for now.

  6. Tomorrow is shaping up to be a BAD day. I am either getting demoted and taking a significant pay decrease, or getting laid off. I love it when management "restructures."


    Last year we went from a 2 tier system (senior and staff) to a 3 tier system (I II and III) in order to reduce turn over. We had 9 total. New CFO steps in and whispers "we are overstaffed." Someone left, so good, that solves that. Well now this is happening:


    1) the 2 people on the same level are most likely getting promoted

    2) they, despite the promotion, they are taking the same pay (which is way below average for the position)

    3) I am either gone or moved down.


    How do I know this? Well my 2 equals have already had meetings with the managers. Last to know, first to go. And plus I talked to the others, one said some things, and that they needed to have a decision by tomorrow.

  7. I swear, every time I say to my wife thats the last show for the year (we is on a budget, and TBH its within my budgeted "happy money," I'd just like to cut back), something else comes up facepalm.gif


    I will be seeing Dethklok, Mastodon, Converge and High On Fire in Nov biggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gifbiggrin.gif


    (don't know what the hell was the deal with the ticket prices, but they went from $74 each to $35... I checked the Pixies still $120 eachfacepalm.gif)

    Two-faced mother{censored}ers telling me one thing, and telling the Regional Manager another...

    I hear ya.


    It was more or less shown to me (by my companies actions) that me and the other people in my position that were not worth more than $1 extra a hour. $.98 raise. Should be happy I have a job, but it sucks when we are way underpaid to begin with.

  9. I received this email a while ago...


    "NIce but I wont be here. Stop doing so much big deal about it, because that is making you to get more attention. Which is the part that you don't like..... and less is the other way."

    Nay it was not alcohol that I am talking about, but my "raise." But I should be thankful I have a job. The 40% in the whiskey shall help in the following months, especially since we overheard the CFO drop the "we are overstaffed" bomb to the managers the other day.thumb.gif
