  • Das Future

    We have a pretty decent class of new recruits. It makes me sad, because I remember when I was in a pretty decent class of new recruits (go back 3 years in time). Now, there are some positives.

    Namely, I can give advice. Solicited or not. Here's what to do, here's what's not to do.

    Smoke cigarettes inside the office? That's a... Not to do. But you might have hesitated.  You'll get a reputation.

    Some people do the whole tobacco dipping thing at the office. They're called hillbillies.

    There's a weird fine line between outlawing things, and keeping the economy going. Vices are some of the best ways to separate the mentally under nourished with their money.

    For the record, internet shopping is NOT a vice. It's a necessity.

    Why are bills all monthly? That's a bit too often. Corporations do quarterly, why can't I?

    Oh well, I think all of my bills are auto-deduct now anyway. If I never write another check, it will be too soon. The only way I'd do it, is if someone asked for a cheque. I'd reward them for their spelling uniqueness by acquiescing. But then I'd spell my and their name with extra q's and u's so they couldn't cash it.

    About Q's and U's, Words With Friends: fun game. Especially when you can fit in dirty words. A tit is a bird! I'll defend that to the grave.
