Random Rants

[seawolf]

@Oaktavia Thanks! That was from December when I flew to SC. Luckily, the party is only a 3 hour drive, but I can't have a bloody mary in the car. I mean, I can, but it's ill-advised.

I have nothing to rant about or to contribute... but it's wet here today, and I'm waiting on jeans drying.
That is all...

[Oaktavia]

@seawolf Ah I see well save the bloody for post drive with ya tacos!

[Giles]

@Oaktavia no point stressing. Whatever happened was out of my control…..I had done everything I could, I had to leave the rest to fate…..

[Oaktavia]

@Giles wise words

[Walery Smirnoff]

@Mizmazzle I understand you so well! Something similar is happening here. One idiot owner keeps the entire chicken coop in fear. And everyone is "guilty" except him. Both the chickens and the dogs. And most importantly, this so-called "owner" does not understand human words at all! And I'll tell you, call the police. Such assholes only understand the language of force.

[Mizmazzle]

@Walery-Smirnoff thanks for empathizing. It’s super frustrating. I think my neighbors mindset is he wants a fierce guard dog to protect the property. But in actuality he’s got the equivalent to a car alarm that won’t stop going off. What I don’t understand is how it’s not bothering him in the least that his dog is barking, literally, nonstop. Hell, he keeps his windows open too!! If my dog barks more than 2-3 times I'm out there checking on him.

@Mizmazzle Common sense isn’t so common anymore.

[Mizmazzle]

@Denman-John “uncommon” sense…

So I got a great opportunity starting Monday. But I have to dress... So lame. It's crazy that it even matters to me. Up until about 5 years ago, never paid any attention to my clothes unless I was trying to look silly. Now I've gotten used to looking nice and here's a plain brown uniform for me.... I liked my old job. Average pay, average hours and a dress code that Iron Heart shredded.

[Rococo]

@CosmoSix5 Not a crazy idea at all.... change is always uncomfortable at first but my guess is you'll experience some upside to a uniform soon and appreciate your IH in a new way.

[Go For Chill]

@CosmoSix5 Bummer, but hey, maybe it means you'll be able to afford even more Iron Heart!

My job is business casual and we are encouraged to lean "more conservative". I just randomly started rocking jeans and so far nobody seems to care. I'm still waiting for a "policies and standards" email. I get wanting employees looking clean and put together, but I can't believe people still care if you're wearing nice jeans instead of khakis.

@Mizmazzle call the cops until youre such a pain in the ass they actually do something Fuck this geezer.

[Tago Mago]

@Go-For-Chill IH chinos for the win

[Go For Chill]

@Tago-Mago How am I supposed to be in the cool kids club with rad fades on my denim if I'm wearing chinos all day every day?

[Tago Mago]

@Go-For-Chill it’s all about the journey

[Iron Geezer]

@steelworker Just confirming I am a different Geezer

[Mizmazzle]

@steelworker things have since come to a head. Cops have been called, fuck you’s exchanged. Think we might have reached a level of improvement. Time will tell.

[steelworker]

Some people you can't be a nice guy. They only understand one way and that's to talk to them like the assholes they are.

[Mizmazzle]

@steelworker it’s been a long time since I went off on someone like that.
