OT, you are correct, I know I wouldn't like it as much as where I am now but there are some really big reasons right now why I needed that job. I'm gonna re-apply with them and another place, however the other place doesn't pay as well and I would have to work on Saturdays!! :frown:
Personally, I think the woman was lazy, I feel like I got a blanket e-mail. There was NO reason for them not to hire me.
or a popular guy
me2 - sorry about getting turned down for a job you wanted.
CM - Sorry about whatever happened with Comcast.
cm - what's comcast?
John Cena sucks for numerous reasons...
he shouldnt have been holding his title for as long as he has been....
he's VERY over-rated, and seems to be able to escape both death and/or losing his title, time after time after time after time after time, etc....
not to mention, that his acting sucks, and his movie was a waste of money.... especially on dollar tuesday, at Roseville 4 - where all of the seats are broken, and the popcorn tastes like stale piss.
I like that place - the seats and popcorn are part of the experience. I love watching newbies trying to find a good seat for the fist time. HaHa
It was more or less a diss towards Cena...
my sister said that the last time they replaced their seats, she was in her sophmore year of highschool....
she graduated back in 1990... so that should tell ya somethin.
blah...
people shouldnt be ordering thin crust anyways...
The other reason is the thick crusts fill you up faster and tend to tone down all the pizza topping goodness.
As bad as that is, I'm happy it wasn't something more serious.
I swear I cant write anything less than 3 pages long.
HAY NICK!!! are you and Carlolyn amd Angala Comeing over tonight to watch some football or what ever the hell it was we where going to watch I got the new Halloween with added footage If you guys do you should grab a PIZZA from Pizza magic I wnat to try it lol and I am shure Carolyn gets a good deal I Want the Doghy thing crust!!! I like it doughy lol!!! I am tired after last night!!! YOU And Monkey ARE FLIPING NUTZZ!!!!
Resumes can be killers.
Out here - everything is 'thin' crust unless you go to pizza hut where they have pan.
and what is considered thin is somewhere between thin and pan... and totally greasy. I eat pizza like 2 times a year - thank to 'california' crust. blech.
The last time they painted or changed the carpeting was back in 1987. However, they melt REAL butter for the popcorn! and they have a great makeout couch up in the projection booth! :wink:
sad to hear about it - I'm sure it really hurts
:frown: how did it happen?
I like his Blair Witch parody and wit
and I can't stand Bear Grylls anymore...
I'm at 1152x864
I bought a new laptop, which came with a free trial of microsoft office for Windows Vista.
I guess the idea is to see if the features meet your needs before converting to the actual product?
But if I'd known how difficult it would be to convert, I'd have just bought the damn program up front.
Every time I try to convert, it offers me options, but no information about what will happen if I choose those options. And it tries to fool me into ordering the $700 program, when what I really need is the $150 program.
Finally, I figure out WHAT I should choose, and get just so far and then it offers me even more options, and again no info. It leaves me thinking that if I don't pay the extra $15, I won't be able to "unlock" the damn thing once I install it. But no way to verify or refute that impression.
And it says I can e-mail them for help.
So, I e-mail them.
And they e-mail back that they cannot give me any product information - I will "have to" call pre-sales.
And I do, and they are closed until today.
So I call today and the girl says that's right, you can't get the info online by e-mailing, even though you are invited to e-mail about your conversion - the reason you can't get info by e-mail is that "they are not pre-sales".
OK, fine, so they want their pre-sales people to SELL me something. Fine. Let's do it, then.
Then she tells me she can't give me any info either, cuz even though she is pre-sales, she is "not trained".
But as I'm trying to get into the conversion screen, to explain what I'm seeing there, a screen pops up (first time) that says, "your trial is expired" and it gives me one clear option to proceed, so with her online, I proceed. And get a screen that says, "sorry, you are unable to purchase this online".
All she can tell me is to go to any store and buy what I want. She can't tell my WHY I can't buy it there - its not a credit issue cuz we haven't even gotten that far! She also gives me some windows online store I can buy from if I want to - now where was THAT option when I was trying to buy this in the first place?
Well, fine then - I have a 10% discount coupon for Target. I'm heading out to buy the damn thing.
food.
I was 'naughty' after the wine awards Sat night - when I went to an after party at this yummy lil restaurant in town. The Chef Jack knows that I love his mac & cheese (with cajun sausage) and surprised me with my own little crock of it.
how could I say no? He went out of his way for it for me. and it was SOOOOOOO good.
But now I can't seem to get it out of my head - that used to be my favorite Monday Night - stop by on my way home from work, and get one during happy hour.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Forget The Police, Justin Timberlake or Bruce Springsteen. The undisputed hottest concert ticket of the year is for 14-year-old pop star Miley Cyrus, star of the Disney Channel's "Hannah Montana" TV show.

Fans are so desperate for seats to her 54-date tour, kicking off later this month, that venues have sold out in as little as four minutes and scalpers are getting four to five times the face value — creating a torrent of complaints from frustrated parents.
"We knew it was hot, but we had no idea it was this crazy," said Debra Rathwell, senior vice president of AEG Live, which is handling her tour. "It's like the Beatles."
About 12,000 seats for the Memphis show were gone in 8 minutes. It took 15 minutes in Columbus, Ohio, and swift sellouts have been reported across the country — Nashville, Miami, Lexington, Ky. The Kansas City Council is investigating the matter.
One ticket for the show in Charlotte, N.C., sold for $2,565.
Miley, daughter of country music singer Billy Ray Cyrus, plays high school student Miley Stewart, who lives a secret double life as a famous pop star, Hannah Montana. Her show reaches 5 million viewers a week.
The sold-out "Best of Both Worlds Tour," which begins Oct. 18, follows the release of her double album, "Hannah Montana 2/Meet Miley Cyrus," which has already sold more than 1 million copies since its release in June. The first album, released late last year, sold more than 2 million copies.
Paige Nace, 35, hoped to take her daughter to see Miley at the Arena at Gwinnett Center outside of Atlanta. Nine-year-old Arianna had been begging to see her live ever since she started watching the show, Nace said.
"I think that's it's pretty cool she is coming here," Arianna said. "I want to get up on stage and sing with her. Most likely every girl I know likes Hannah."
But in 4 minutes, tickets to the November show were gone. Nace said tickets were being resold for inflated prices on Internet sites like Craigslist and eBay Inc.'s ticket-reselling subsidiary StubHub.
"All the ticket brokers and scalpers are trying to sell them for $100-200 a piece," Nace said. "If they would have been face value, I would have gladly gotten them."
The tour promoter capped prices at $65 and put a four-ticket maximum on each transaction. However, the average ticket for the Hannah Montana tour was being resold for $214. That beats the average resale price for Timberlake ($182), Beyonce ($193), or The Police ($209).
The Police tour has been StubHub's best-selling tour in the company's history, but Hannah Montana has sold 35 percent more tickets in the same amount of time, and is outselling The Police by 25 percent based on dollar volume.
Understandably that's riling a lot of fans.
"It's always been a problem and it getting worse and worse," said Rathwell, who says her company is doing all it can to reduce scalping. But with every show selling out immediately, there are few options for parents.
"Hannah Montana has essentially exposed a lot of frustration the average, uninformed ticket buyer has," said Sean Pate, a spokesman for the San Francisco-based StubHub. "There is so much demand that ticket sellers are pricing on the high side. It's almost unreasonable."
As technology changes and more venues start selling tickets online, scalpers are no longer those shady looking guys holding up tickets outside the arena. Most states have no restrictions on reselling tickets, even for a big profit.
Ray Waddell, Billboard's touring writer, says scalpers use automated computer programs that buy tickets quickly or tie up ticket phone lines with repeated calls. "It's really getting out of control," Waddell said. "The industry is kind of fed up."
Pate encourages Hannah Montana fans to sit tight and wait for prices to go down as the tour dates approach.
"The prices that you see now are not the prices that are going to hold," Pate said. "Parents need to set a price that they are comfortable with and watch the market on a daily basis."
Nace is refusing to deal with scalpers at all, but the situation has left both her and her daughter disappointed. "My mom is trying to do everything she can to take me," Arianna said. "I'm still going to listen to the CDs."
"I feel like they are ripping off children," Nace said. "I'm sure there are parents out there would pay that much. But the rest of us shouldn't be penalized for that."
I have a litany of such things going, lately:
BBQ ribs (favorite place doesn't make them anymore, so am on a hunt for an acceptable replacement) :frown:
Walnut shrimp
Chili
Problem is, to get any of them to taste the way I want it, I will probably have to COOK.
