Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

The late-night diner

MakershotMakershot that one guy you met that one timeSeattleRegistered User regular
Something I've noticed about SE++... it dies at a certain point in the night, yet there are still plenty of people online.

So, here's the place that us late-night/early-morningers post in, so that we're not making a post in each other thread and then just hitting the refesh button for fifteen minutes waiting for another person to post.

So yeah, if you're up this late/just out from the bar/got the late shift, post here!

    driving is the best thing ever. Only plebs take the bus.

    Sit in a smelly bus next to Joan who's out on day release and drooling on you, or sit, emperor like, in your own vehicular mansion, and the ability to chose your destination, and the timing of it.




    in short, fuck busses

    And you can choose the odour of your transportation. Instead of the piss / shit of public transport you can get sickening pine / vanilla..

    So after posting in this thread I sat here for a while hitting refresh until someone else posted.
    This is why I usually avoid posting.

    I have had some of the most interesting times on the bus, during midday.

    From the guy who believed that whitey was out to get him just because the driver asked him to pay the proper fare, to the lady who threw a framed photo of Kurt Cobain into each passenger's face saying " See this? THIS WAS A PROPHET!"

    OK, I love the human experience, for all its disgusting foibles.

    The few times I took the bus I always had to sit next to somebody who smelled like pee soaked sweat socks covered in turds and rotting food. It's like these people couldn't dream of riding a bus without going several months between hygiene rituals.

    I prefer my vehicle, because the only smell is the fart I cut and my little pine tree hanging from the rear view mirror.

    I recommend everyone get ahold of a copy of "The Wacky World of Rapid Transit" by Del the Funkee Homosapien.

    High five!

    Although I already have a new job.. I'm just waiting on my counter-terrorist check to come back before I can hand my notice in here.

    So in the meantime I'm doing just enough to get by, just not little enough to get noticed.

  • SilmarilSilmaril Mr Ha Ha Hapless. Registered User regular
    I don't even know what I want to do.




    Dilemma!



    And no I'm not posting in H&A. I'm not a retard.

    but i like my job

  • SilmarilSilmaril Mr Ha Ha Hapless. Registered User regular
    I used to love my job. But now I am bored. Bored out of my tiny little mind.


    I need a change. Perhaps a total upheaval.

    Is the other job bad? Do you have to test how effective steel tipped shoes are by getting kicked in the balls and describing that versus a regular shoe kicking you in the balls?

    Job enjoyment is just as important as money. They have to balance out.

    the other job is working in an industrial machining shop use giant death machinery and huge columns of fire to coat oil drilling equipment in tungsten

    i know a couple dudes that do it and it seems alright

    but it's like 50 - 60 hour weeks all the time and honest work

    whereas right now i'm working 40 - 50 hours a week and i mostly just listen to music and play on forums and play ds


    but shit, it is a lot of fucking money

    like

    a ridiculous amount

    Holy shiite that's expensive. I think the bus here costs like $2.00cdn, which is like, £1.

    I wouldn't know though, I never take the bus, all driving around in my 4x4 with my parking space downtown and parking garage at home.

    I have my driving test on saturday, so hopefully my 4x4 will also come into play, woo. Here's hoping nobody knifes open the soft-top again.

    Life is not always about money.

    If you can make enough to live comfortably now, and have a plan for the future, then fuck that other job and its sinful lures.

    Hey, if I could find a job playing video games, fishing, and drinking beer for what I'm making now I'd be all over it. Hell, I'd take a 10k cut and work 55 hours a week.

    After I finish my degree and do some other crap I'm going to apply and see if I'm eligible to be Mr. Bond - I'm not sure how many of the positions are filled with regular old civil service, albeit super secret civil service.

    Yeah but taking 55 hours a week wouldn't really count then now would it.
