lolololol

I got you beat. Last year I quit on this nasty old bitch, that owned a coffee shop. She told me it was a 7 hour gig, to show up there at 7 am. I got there at 7 am, she was already talking shit that I should be there earlier. There was this girl working there, young mother already, telling me the 7 hour gig was bs and I was gonna be doing 10 hours (backed up by every other employee) everyday and it was custom to hear the owner complain. Asked her what she thought about the job, she said she didn't want to lie to me, if she didn't need it she would've bounced long ago. The old rag was actually disrespectful basically telling everybody they weren't worth shit.

I was done by 11 am. Told her she was crazy, and she could stick her lowly 600 euros for a 10 hour a day job up her asshole.

not critical, but was curious what your living situation was with the quick decision to quit the job.

i lived on my own for about a year but miscalculated costs and was burning money way faster than i had envisioned. cost of living alone are brutal here, probably more so than any place in Europe. CanCrush can attest to that.

moved back with my folks about 6 or 7 months ago, 3 more years earning what i was earning in sales and i can fully pay a T1 condo. that's the plan.

Terrible minimum wage, plenty of taxes, and prices that match those of places with double minimum wage.

Honestly LP, you should just fucking move to London or some shit. Hell that's what I should do too, but this college thing...

Interesting comment from alleged monster welterweight Mr. SP. What do you make of it, friends?

"I don't do much cutting," St-Pierre said on Tuesday's new edition of "The Joe Rogan Experience." "It would be easier for me to go fight at 155 than fighting at 185. I would be more at my weight naturally at 155.

"There's guys at 155 that walk around at 190 like me. They think I'm big because I have a large frame, but I'm not a big guy. I'm not thick."

I'm at the point where Mr. SP admits to losing hours on the clock in the blink of an eye, even while driving, and worries that his PR manager will kill him before promising to one day speak about aliens.

Thank you, Joe Rogan.

I don't know who's worse, slippery georges or serpentine silver.

Oh wait I do, it's slippery georges by far because at least when serpentine enters The Octagon, he goes in there to finish guys most of the time.

God damn slippery georges and his bitchmade tri-star ways. And while I'm at it, fuck Francis Carmont too. How RoryMac can train with those guys without his killer instinct being sucked right out of him blows my mind.

Well, you know how they're all catty and carry bizarre grudges that are entirely unlike innocently wanting to see certain fighters get taken out of the cage on stretchers? Well, one of them said something particularly abhorrent, and I said this to them because it was ethically just to do so.

Then I see this shit weeks later.

I think GSP is becoming damaged goods, Johny Hendricks is a real threat if he can stop the take down and pidder patter of GSP's pillow hands. Anderson would kill him in the 2nd round, cause if a 185 pound luchador cant beat him then a lighter fighter probable wouldn't fair so well either.

"Ya'll" doin it wrong, watching GSP fight when you're drunk and high is like listening to music drunk and high or actually being Nick Diaz......... Preciate it.

GoT is doing something interesting with Theon. Bit different from the books, still good though.

The shortest I've ever worked was one month in outbound sales. My "sales" were shit at the end of the month, and in a meeting with the team leader was basically offered a contract termination which I agreed to immediately. Calling motherfuckers up at 8.30am on a Saturday to offer them "independent" financial advice regarding mortgages and shit wasn't really my cup of tea.

I've endured a lot of shitty jobs in my time, basically because I don't know how to quit. To be honest, I think I'm subconciously trying to get canned from my current job. I literally spend 70% of my time there reading TVTropes and Wikipedia.

They're always looking for dudes to gut fish at the fish factory near where I live in Scotland. The last time I checked it's a Portuguese-Polish enclave there. Decent money, but it's impossible to get rid of the smell.

I once worked 1 day at a factory (Tyco). It was unbelievable. You just sat there for 8 hours watching a machine spit out a piece for a snake light. You didn't have to do anything at all except for once every 2 hours you have to take a piece to a machine (spectrometer?) and make sure its dimensions are within the tolerance levels. Most boring job ever.

I didn't care to even find out. No way I was just gonna sit and do nothing for 8 hours a day. The people working there literally looked like zombies.

i worked for a year and a half at an assembly line, making compressors for Ford. 18 months screwing screws. pay was above average but higher spots in the hierarchy were saved for "cousins" and "nephews". hours flew by since i had dozens of hours worth of MP3s, the saving grace.

honestly, wasn't the worst job i had.
