So I cracked open the 900 box of RAW cones ... and WTF?

Left - OCB packing stick. Right - RAW packing stick. The RAW stick is about the same stiffness as an undercooked egg noodle. So exactly HOW does one pack a cone with an undercooked egg noodle?

So glad that I saved a bunch of those OCB sticks.

Before I bought the OCB 900 box last April, I used to get a bunch of the 6 packs of RAW 1 1/4's which came with slightly narrower packing tubes. It was rather surprising to see those strips this morning. And I bet that in a little over 1 year when I go back to the OCB's, they will probably have switched to the strips too.

B & D Option poll - When your junior developer & lead coordinator - who have both known the server side requirements for configuring a new software product since early April but did not pass all of these requirements to those who configure the server side - start giving you grief and making "half-assed effort" comments because their testing is now failing ... do you think it's time to call it a career?
  1. YES
  2. HELL YES
  3. FUCKING RIGHT
  4. ALL OF THE ABOVE

Your call, I chose option (5) and blew up any bridges to my IT career as if they were necessary for the Russian logistics in Ukraine. The day I quit I hot boxed my work van like I was in a Cheech and Chong movie. Called my boss in front of the customer to make sure that everyone on the contract would know just what a shiatty company they were working with.

It looked somewhere between these two resignation methods.

Took the day off to stop by a couple dealerships and put in some applications so I met up with my brother this morning to play some disc golf. Hole 10, 830am and 55°f and I hit a tree and my disc carromed off almost to the other side of the creek. Shoes and socks off and I went in after it. Got it back. Hole 11, my brother parked his disc. There was only one option. Let it rip and I got my first ace!!! It was right about 200 feet. Perfect, pure throw hit dead center in the chains. It. Was. Fucking. Awesome!!!!!

The comments will always make me think of the Haribo Gummy Bear comments on Amazon from years back. Fucking legendary if you have the time. These are some of the gems:

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to expose the folks who believe they can run over you w/o recourse.

Had a job on a golf course for about 8 years. My egotistical cowboy wannabee boss had been there 35 years and felt it was his Kingdom/felt entitled/and felt he was above the rules. A real "My way or the highway" kinda person.

One day he exposed the crew to toxic chems and made jokes about everyone running outside ("like little girls"). Fuming inside...I simply walked away/went home. The next day he asked where I went/why I left and I told him that I went home to wash the chemicals off and was too pissed to return. He was not happy with that answer.

The next AM when I came in he motioned me into his office and told me to give him all of my keys....and that I was fired. I just looked at him and said "Do you think that's a smart decision on your part?" He laughed and boasted how he'd been there 35 years and I was simply no longer employed there.

The next day I called 3 other guys who were there/were also exposed. I asked each of them if they'd sign a letter I was going to write...TO THE EPA. 3 pages of speel and 4 sigs later...and in about 3 weeks I had 2 EPA ladies in my living room. LOFL. They were not happy.

Evidently a month or so later things got fun for him....and >>>he<<< ended up getting fired. In the interim he figured out that the Mechanic was one of the other folks who reported him and he fired him as well before he himself was canned.

When they gave him his going away party the Mechanic and I got a cowboy boot box from a local store and ONE worn out cowboy boot and wrapped it all up real nice. Inside we put a card with the sentiment "We heard you GOT THE BOOT. HERE's another from (our names) to complete your pair! PAYBACKS ARE HELL!" Nyuk. Nyuk. From all reports...he turned bright red...threw the box....and almost blew a gasket :clap::fire::finger::P

Long story short, sugar free werthers are exactly the same. Boss bought a big bag of em. Next day he said he thought they had made him have some explosive movements. I called him a dipshit and told him candy won't do that. He gave me the giant bag of them. Score!!!! Before lunch, I ate 7 of them. We went to Jimmy John's for lunch and luckily I drove separate that day. I grabbed the second half of my sandwich, wrapped it up and hauled ass outta there. It was a photo finish when I got back to the shop. It was violent. I definitely apologized to him afterwards. Hahaha
