What first world problem did you have today?

[highland145]

A little dirt...

 

[lxskllr]

It actually isn't that bad. Just something to whine about. I walk out of some jobs looking like a survivor from a battle scene in Vikings. I have too much crap to carry, and there isn't much you can do with stickers except muscle through, and take the pain. I suppose I could put my stuff down, cut a path, then go back to fetch my stuff, but there ain't no time for that :^D

Cutting vines and stickers today. Shredded my left arm...View attachment 4011

If you didn’t bleed, it was a walk not a hike.

Pic is disappointing, expected to see torn muscle and ligaments. Sad.

Well, it’s friday night, and you have alcohol - soon all the troubles of your week will be behind you

Is that a clicky keyboard?

Is that a clicky keyboard?

Yup. 1998 Made in Scotland :^)

I have another one around here somewhere I think was made in 1989.

Lol that's got to suck, using portable heaters I guess?

That reminds me I have this 4800w heater that used to be hard wired that is just removed. I should probably put a stove plug end on it, could come in handy.

Boiler is still working and we have heated floors so it's not awful yet

Orange Vanilla Coke Zero is reaaaallly not tasty.

This news is staggering to me.

Tastes like aspergum, doesn't it?

Dreaded clock change tonight. Yuck. Hate moving the time forward. Messes me up as it makes it that much harder to get up as it's technically an hour earlier. Also back to pitch black mornings.

Does not matter what time I go to bed, it's the time I get up that makes me tired so even if the clock says a certain time my body still thinks it's an hour earlier. Don't really get used to it but once summer comes and it's light out in the morning it does make it a bit easier to get up.

 

[sdifox]

Fuck changing time

 

[lxskllr]

I despise DST. My body's tuned to the sun, and dicking with the clocks messes me up. It also means grass shortening season's on the way, and the weather will be awful for the next six months :^(

Yeah, I hate the change. Takes me 2 weeks to recover. Only takes me 2 days to suck up that hour.

Anyway, have some love.

Hmm... Not sure I want that kind of love :^D

 

[sdifox]

Fucking mess with clock time again

HQ office: We need information on this facility, ASAP!

Me: No problem, it doesn't exist. The project got cancelled back in the late 80s (well before my time) and the facility never got built.

HQ office: We show it on our inventory list ; it has to be there.

Me: Can I have some of that sweet capital asset preservation (maintenance) money, please? With regular funding, the facility will be a jewel in the crown.

Actually you need to replace the roof and the hvac system. And the boiler.

My dentist is super booked and I can't get a cleaning for more than a month.

Is it on Alderaan street by chance?

Actually I wonder how often corruption like that happens within government or companies, where there is a fake building on file that gets funding but it does not even exist... that money has to be going SOMEWHERE. This is the sort of stuff I could see SNC Lavelin do.

Have to call Amex this evening or tomorrow evening and talk with them yet again (for the fifth time I think it is) about unauthorized charges showing up on my bill. It's because someone months ago had gotten ahold of my CC# and so they issued me a new card; fine, good. But they allow old credit card numbers to still make valid charges, so someone that has stolen your old card can still charge shit (well, attempt to) and it shows up just like a valid charge does on your bill; there's no way to tell it's from that old CC#, it looks the same as any other purchase you made. Ridiculous. And they just can't seem to get that fact through their fucking heads. This is the last time I'm dealing with this; if they can't fix this then I'm closing my account, I'm just fucking sick of this idiotic shit.

At least I'm gonna go to the Red Wing store after work and maybe get some new boots (the Sheldons look p1mp).

You should be scheduling your cleaning six months out after you have one. At least, that's how my dentist's office does it.
