Church bells because everyone want to hear some tool with no rhythm smashing a fucking bell at 730 am.

Fuck you

Well fuck you for not being awake and at the church by then, God bless, and hail Christ!
 
Somehow I got the tiniest sliver of fiberglass on top of my middle finger and it hurts like hell to touch. I don't even know how I got it.

I'm not even sure why a business would be upset for something like their employees relating with customers, how are you suppose to act then? All I can imagine is being super scripted and dull to the point where customers are almost offended by your dullness.

I'm sure you said this before but where you work?

My parents said I should find myself work out west cause my mom works with a kid who's working at Alta this winter.

im trying to get some of my coworkers to file grievances with HR, enough of those from employees regarding management will make them take some notice. If just one employee files a grievance, i just know for a fucking fact they'll do some passive aggressive bullshit and just let you go or something lame.

Other fucked up part is that she also reports you to HR if you try to stand up for yourself, challenge what she says, dispute things, etc. So basically you stand up for yourself, get fired/transferred departments, or file a grievance against her and still lose your job one way or another. I dont really give a shit though, like hell am i going to lose my fucking job over a god damned $5 bill. no fucking way, man.

its incredible the amount of authority people take so seriously. She must have had a real tough time growing up getting the shit kicked out of her, now its her turn to return the favor. my mom said it best when i talked to her about it. People like this always get whats coming to them, and will always have their downfalls.

its just a shame, everyones jumping ship and applying to other positions like myself and its fucked up awful people like this ruin experiences for people. Shouldnt have to be looking over your shoulder in fear every time you clock in.
 
holy fucking shit, I'm trying to sell a pretty nice guitar and amplifier on craigslist, and of the 6 inquiries I've gotten so far this morning, all of them have been scam attempts. Are people really that dumb? Is craigslist just a giant shithole now? You'd have to be an absolute retard to accept anything but cash for a craigslist transaction

But you just need to understand. My friend will come by and pick up the guitar but because I'm out of the country I just need a little favor. You will come out ahead because my money order is for $10000 instead of $1000 lol you can keep an extra $100 and give the rest to my friend.

Pretty much. Buddy listed skis on there and had the same thing happen.

I didn't even realize I got stung anywhere else at first. I felt the lip and yelled "WHAT THE FUCK!!!!" and threw the lawnmower. Well more pushed the mower angrily away while cursing the world.

Damn bees got me good. Fuck them. Fuck them all.

So much respect for bears. just plunging into a hive for honeycomb. They literally swallow distressed live bees for honey.

But yea bees and wasps eh. Wasps are menaces. I worked forestry for a while, and my dog used to dick around with hornet nests and then run between my legs for refuge when they attacked. It hurt like crazy every time, but there was one time in particular when i thought my dog and I would perish.

Every single wasp in the colony dies in the winter, except for the queen. I heard that and was just like time to cut the cord. What a fickle existence on a species level. They barely even pollinate. fuck wasps......seems like a job for trump. eliminate wasps. 2020

well shit friends, if i wanted to see what it looks like to watch someone struggle with math i would do my homework in front of the mirror and not go to class to watch my professor fumble his way through a pointless derivation and get confused at his own examples. FUCK

fuck math join health science
 
13841419:Poindexter. said:
you kno honestly, i have no clue where that even came from. i have not met a single jock

yeah i havent seen any in geology either....most ive met are actually kinesiology....lol health science for the win.

i only know the saying because my dad used to use it about my high school classes, apperently at western Illinois university in the 80s the jocks just loved geology ahhahaha
 
13841424:Poindexter. said:
it refers to the basic general geology that isnt geared towards majors. cuz almost all programs include one science course, all the athletes take the ultra basic geology

ahhhhhhhhh i see. that makes a lot of sense actually.

finally figured out my food allergies and now I have to severely cut my diet. This friggen sucks.

this happened to me when I was living in Norway. ended up being allergic to a lot of the stuff they put in regular dishes and having to figure out how to eat around that stuff was hard but you'll feel soooo much better. good luck, girl!

I had to do the same a couple of years back- it super sucked at first, but it gets better! You get rather creative with cooking too, which is actually kinda fun haha

Dude, that would be so rough to deal with in a foreign country.

Glad to know it gets better. Turns out I've got a wicked sulfite allergy, epipen and all. I guess it happens in 5% of asthmatics. oh well!!

So apparently you can't hide posts any more in the facebook newsfeed. Sorry friends but I don't think I can handle scrolling through the bullshit to see the 2 things interesting facebook shows me.

Ugh

Instagram was like the one social media outlet that I sorta liked but now it's just the same as the fb news feed. I hate social media...why did I go into marketing???

"Pro" skiers fishing for followers on Instagram is so cringey and obvious. It's honestly almost insulting.

“Devenfagan liked your post”

”random Italian skier liked your post”
 
I get random follows for the same reason as well. Idk though. I accept pretty much everyone on facebook I think I actually know. On insta, I just want to see some snowboard/ski shit and a few good friends.

Facebook keeps going to shit anyway. I can barely scroll down a few posts on their anymore. I want my insta to stay nice and peaceful. I'll see most of the shit people post on insta when it shows up on facebook anyway.

That or the constant whoring of their brands they ride for. I get y'all gotta eat but are fucking annoying with it and don't really follow many pros on the social.medka.

"Stoked to be on vacation and I'm so glad I didn't forget my brand new GoPro camera and I'm so happy that I have Monster Energy Drinks to give me energy!"

Skiings kinda turning into this weak-ass "look at me" brand whore crowd and it's gross tbh

yep, sponsorship is a fucking joke unless you're killing x games or something. My local shop used to want me to be on their "rider team", and I just told them that I don't want to whore their shit out for something absurd like 20-30% off their already overpriced bs. They don't like me anymore.

Lol I can think of one kid on insta who will post that cause he has both those sponsors, not pro but is sponsored and is annoyingly active on SM. Also when they insta story “check out my new post!” And it’s a pic of the post just scribbled out, fuck that. The one sorta legit “sponsor” I had that was only 50% from small company called Allic ski co, they died out but they seem to be coming out with new stuff this year. They told me to advertise the brand so I just tagged them in a few insta posts, also was told the team was already stacked, it has like one or two known euro skiers lol.
 
Holy fuck....the university may have thrown out 50 grand of ski gear that the club had without a fucking word to us. I'm fucking speechless.

trying to figure out right now. fucking insane.

we have a storage container on campus full of ski gear, lumber and stuff for putting on a ski swap yada. Went into it yesterday to put some gear that was donated to the club into it, and it was all gone....replaced with fucking bobble heads of our shithole football coach that got fired and some random ass LB. Only thing left was some of the trophies and a cart.

I have to say, though sad of course, that sounds fucking hilarious.

Pictures of the storage unit full of bobble heads?

Also how much are you selling them for?

holy fucking shit, I have no words for that. 50k in gear, that must have been an assload of stuff. I'd imagine they just moved it somewhere else without telling you guys, but who knows

I love this school and the opportunity it’s given me to go ski 100 day seasons, but ever since I’ve got involved with profa and the rest of the freeride team it’s been a constant struggle with ASUN (org that runs clubs) and this schools lack of acknowledgement to our club/team. It’s actually pretty sad to think that we have the opportunity to be one of the best schools for skiing on the west coast and UNR almost entirely ignores us and continues to pull moves like this on us.
 
Facebook is really pushing the "people you may know" . Fucking aggressively.

I don't add people I don't fucking know. I have plenty of friend requests that I haven't added because I don't really know these people.

Also this one "Girl" fake profile. It's been at the top of that. It's the only one in my right margin, it actually gave me a notification just not about "her" request"

I guess I'll have to go through and sweep them all out. I hate all the fake profiles though. Actually added one a few years ago because I had like 8 mutual friends. Turns out my friends are just desperate fucks and will add anyone with a profile picture in a bikini.

Stop using Facebook. That's what I did five years ago, feels good man.

Yeah, not really an option for me. I travel a shit ton. It's my only way to get in contact with people. I'm actually using it today trying to secure housing in Tahoe.

Peoples phones, addresses, etc are always changing. Finding places to crash, people to carpool with, tickets to shows, I really can't get around it.

That said I won't sit on it all day though. Fuck facebook.
