i'm still lmao. At work, a religous type has been floating the 20 dollar bill look alike around. On one side it looks like a 20 dollar bill , on the other is long winded diatribe about finding Jesus. The idea is to drop the bill face up and then who ever finds it gets a religous surprise or lesson or something. Anyway, some jokesters place one of these foney bills in the path of the janitor girl and rather than see the down on her luck gal being laffed at, i snatched it up... had a better idea. I saw it on the Man Show. Yes , i rolled it up and dropped it in the toilet .....Honest to god i came back over an hour later,,and the wet bill was on the floor...I wish i could of got a video of that.

HAHAHAHAHA! This just made my day. Russian guy, mid fifties, waiting in my office for his BMW and his cell phone rings and his ring tone is thrash metal. Priceless.

I don't normally post how I feel in this thread, but my day included a (dumb) cell phone incident, so I submit this (from the Hangar) for your vast amusement (or boredom):
The most interesting thing I did today was throw up at 1:00 in the morning. It was due to some bad food - I'm sure it was the chicken dinner from the deli. I think all the episodes of food poisoning I've had involved chicken.
Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep. So I was pretty tired when I showed up at work, but I had to set up for our staff Christmas luncheon (100+ people). Luckily my fellow colleagues took pity on me (heh) and a bunch of them came and did most of the grunt work for me. This year they ordered Chinese; the food was good and I was relieved that chicken wasn't on the menu.
Later, towards the end of my workday, one of the lunch attendees informed me that she had lost her cellphone but was convinced it had to have been in or around the conference room where we had the lunch, because she said she had not gone anywhere else upon arriving. So, after considering every other plausible location where her cell might have ended up, I and my boss agreed to open up all the dozen or so bags of trash from the luncheon to see if the cell had somehow been accidentally thrown in with the garbage. Half an hour later, no cell phone. I thought that was the end of it...but then the woman mentioned that she had in fact visited an office after the lunch. Woulda been nice if she had remembered to tell us that bit of helpful information earlier. So my boss brought her to that office - and bingo, there was her cell phone, lying on the floor where she had dropped it!
So all that effort of sifting through the trash had been a wasted exercise.
That was my kind of day - the good (yummy lunch), the bad (food poisoning) and the ugly (a pointless search through garbage).
I hate bad chicken. And cell phones.

I'm feeling very good today. I was offered the job at the library I applied and interviewed for, and accepted it! The woman said I slammed the interview and had great references, so I start after the holidays!
WOO HOO!
WOO HOO!

Congrats, balon!
Yes, drew, it's bloody cold here, too. Windchill warnings are in effect all through the weekend. It could hit -48 tonight.

Congratulations, balon!!
A first step towards your career goal, I hope.
Is there a tuition reimbursement program from them if you pursue the degree in library sciences?

Thanks guys!
I believe so, but it'll be after the six month trial period. If not, at least it'll be about 40 hours a week when mixed with the theater. So I'll be putting back money for college in either case.Menolly wrote:Is there a tuition reimbursement program from them if you pursue the degree in library sciences?
