I guess they just changed their retinal scanning software, so I have to go into the Richmond office for a re-scanning, but Nexus is a wonderful thing.

So wait, we need a passport to get in, but you show them a Google Tablet and you can get out?

Hardly seems fair.

we didnt do ours for air travel so no retinal scanning ... i dont think they do kids under 5 anyways :noidea:

we did our interviews at the temporary set up they had at the cruise ship terminal downtown and were greeted by a massive mountain of a us customs dude who was playing angry birds on his phone :ohwell:

they said 4 weeks for the cards to be sent out and we got them in 5 business days ... wha???

I just turned it off for the Hoop as well, but now I keep getting this ad after I visited the St. Louis Rams board:

I don't mind grapes in there, but that classifies as a slightly different salad to me. My typical chix salad is chicken, mayo, spices, celery, and maybe some toasted almonds. Grapes changes things. Gotta be in the right mind set for that. Raisins have no place in any of my food, aaaaaa-thank you.

No fruit works with Ranch dressing in my experience.

None of them. Ever.

Agreed, I put chicken breast, mayo and celery in my chicken salad

My alarm. I had some kind of post apocalyptic dream last night. Katee Sackhoff was in it - I don't know why. I find her attractive but haven't seen her in anything for years and don't know when the last time I thought about her was so I am not sure where she came from. So it got to a point where because it was cold we stripped down and were sharing a sleeping bag then - beep beep beep - my alarm goes off.

I spent the day tracking down someone who made a bomb threat via twitter.

I am in a very negative state of mind about the future at this moment. I mean if you type "tryna" in place of "trying to" on purpose the world is going to fucking roll you and it's nobody's fault but your own.

And when you threaten to blow something up because you can't find someone to watch your two year old so you can graduate HIGH SCHOOL...

Just... fuck you. Play the victim card, you piece of shit.

So, Seattle is raising minimum wage to $15.


In the first interview for a job I've had (and only so far), the offer was about $16.10/hr. I'm not okay with a 16 year old kid at McDonalds making the same as me. Can't we figure this out in a better way? Like if it's someone whose been working for 10 years and has a family, sure. I guess the issue is with the organization then. Still seems just wrong.

it's a 7 year phase in to get to $15 per hour.
you can bet there will be loopholes
