The lemurs of good luck are still working hella strong (thank you @JoeUser )
Also found out one of the OT's here got the AISA(A) job I wanted. Oh well, it's an out of class position for 2-3 months, so nothing permanent. I'll keep on studying for my A+ Cert and keep on down that road. Eventual goal is Sacramento.
This is how my power spreads. Soon my doughy frosted agents shall have infiltrated the entire office, and then I shall strike.

Watch me struggle to learn streaming! Point and laugh!
I'm also eating some because you can never get enough fiber at a desk job.
not sure I could handle even being here if it was a revolving-door day, what with getting so little sleep over the last week that my left eye keeps twitching and the best the coffee can do is make me slightly manic
I am prepared to flee from the black helicopters at every moment, I just know they finally found me.
My grad assistant hid post it notes under all of my stuff of different Pokemon attacks and I need to think of a way to get him back when he's in the office on Monday. I picked up my keyboard to see "Pigeot use Quick Attack!" and even found a "Butterfree use Psybeam" under my calendar. I've found four so far.
Help me fellow nerds.
Throw them all away and act like it never happened. Just take all the wind out of his sails.
Today started off well though, so I can't complain too much.
Print out pictures of Nic Cage and squirrel them away in their stuff
Bonus point of you can slip it into a PowerPoint slide package
Unless they stated it would be a good while, I'm not so sure on the "gov't is slow" excuse. I've worked in federal before as well and it was usually fairly quick on job filling, unless they were trying to get a specific person and are only putting the listing out due to requirements. What was the nature of the original call?
I did the orange thing again this morning :whistle:
Don't have an answer for you, but I just opened a bank account with them!
change all of his desktop icons to psyduck and/or snorelax.
IT IS THE ONLY WAY!
Yes yes yes
I like this line of thinking.
Part of the issue is that he shares all his work space with the other student workers. So if I do this I have to be especially sneaky in terms of timing.
From the hiring manager / chief of the site saying "I CHOOSE YOU!". I think it may be this particular entity and their CPAC. It's cool, I ain't even mad just super happy I didn't notify anyone.
Assuming the others can keep a secret, take them aside and get them in on it. Have them help slip pics in when he's not looking and have them act like they don't see anything/
In the last year working at Wells Fargo, I've never seen any of our staff convince a USAA customer to move their business over to us.
So you're probably in good hands, relatively speaking.
Better idea is to change all of his desktop icons to Psyduck, including the wallpaper, then hit Print Screen to copy the image, then paste it into your image saver of choice.
From here you take all those desktop icons and shove them into a single folder, which is also Psyduck, then set the wallpaper to be the Print Screen you just took.
You now have what looks like a normal, albeit strange, desktop with only one actual folder. And you can make that folder invisible too if you want.
Or you could recruit them!
That would technically be even better, because you could feign complete ignorance as yet another Nic Cage appears in random places
No, it's not about the music, we burned down the old channels after your recent upgrade, remember? The ones we had were stuck on a terminal 20 song loop with one new song per hour. Yes, that is your fault. No, I honestly don't mind rebuilding the stations (aside from slapping dubstep into my Johnny Cash channel).
This is about your goddamned ads. Pushing aside the fact that every third pop-up ad is an online dating service with increasingly NSFW selfies, your most recent efforts look like skeevy mail order bride shit.
Asian Only Girlfriends is pretty fucked.
Foreign Girlfriends: Valiant Ukrainian Women is beyond fucked and more than a little exploitative.
Spotify may get downloaded before I even get home to my wifi.
USAA is a great bank. Also insurance company. I feel obligated to talk about how much I
More like Slowsagi.
I think you need to have a family member in the military though. If you do, then yeah they're absolutely fantastic. I have my car loan and insurance through them along with bank accounts. No bullshit fees.
I am very busy bashing my orange into my desk, thankyouverymuch
I'm special enough for two ice creams so that's my plan after work.
Currently active duty if memory serves, which is why I can't get no satisfaction.
Acceptable.
I got out in 2003 and they took me. Think I'm gonna get my renters insurance through them. Don't own a car, so I don't need that kind of insurance. I was worried about not being able to make deposits, but looks like I can make deposits at the UPS store upstairs from where I work.
I keep hearing nothing but good things about them. Shame I can't sign up with them since I don't have any family members as part of the armed services.
Wud yoo laek to lern aboot meatz? Look here!
Checking the website, it looks like the eligibility is:
-You serve/served in the military
-Your spouse serves/served in the military
-Your parent or spouse is a USAA member
It doesn't mention active duty.
A friend of mine has it, but only because his ex-wife did through her family. He gets to keep his coverage even though he's not related to anyone with it. Don't know if it'll extend to any future spouses/kids, but it's something.
