OT: Bullshitting at the Barbershop part III

[mattola]

The CNE used to be kids working end of summer jobs. It’s wild to even imagine 35,000 people applying to try to work for two weeks in August.

"I think it's kind of a sad commentary on the lack of availability, particularly of youth employment, although we get applicants from all ages. But it's also a good commentary on how much interest there is in working for the CNE," Brown said.

I think he is missing the point here.... this is not because of interest in working for the CNE.... this shows to me that the job market is not exactly solid out there.... I dont think an attempt to spin working for the CNE is a good look

Does anyone know how long the sleeper hold works? Someone in my Tae Bo class this afternoon was saying it wouldn't work....and long story short shes been out for about 35 minutes now.

Hey @Comeds , can you introduce me to your HR lawyer?


Work has been a bit slow lately, so I had to have a tough talk with one of my assistants.
I called her into my office and said "Jessica, I'm going to need to either lay you or Jack off"

anyway, i have a pretty big meeting on Tuesday.

I'll send you a couple names. If you want a fair effort from them I highly suggest not mentioning who referred them to you. If you mention my name to one of them - I know it may seem impossible - but I would not be surprised if you ended up with jail time.

Is that the one with the nice jugs?

C'mon man, that's inappropriate. She's the one with nice boobs.

Unless that vehicle can fly, you're going to have to get on a ferry to visit me

Honestly, you are about 5 minutes from my house.
Drop by for a beer and some litigation talk.

I just finished a trip to Alaska and spent the day wrangling elderly parents en route to the airport where I currently am for a red eye flight. I’ll be back in the Pacific NW sometime in early next year on business. So I’ll have to give you all a shout once I have dates and we can all watch a hockey game together.

I’ll let you all rub my head for Cup luck.

Awesome city by the way. Reminded me a lot of DC with more natural wonders close at hand. Squamish is dope. Stanley Park is gorgeous. Only had a half day, but enjoyed it.

@dare2be -> are you ok in Jacksonville with all the rain and flooding?

 

[dare2be]

Jacksonville is kind of wedged in between rain bands so not too much rain yet. But this system could hang around for days so we'll see.

Real heros don't wear capes and sometimes they do.

I get so tired of arguing about fitness goals with my smart watch. I get multiple "You have set fitness goals, is today your day to meet them?" messages each day.

Well Mr. Galaxy Watch, seeing that its noon and I have 148 steps, it seems pretty fucking unlikely, doesn't it?
