Rant About Whatever

How come this sounds so fucking familiar. Any chance this said room mate comes from Berlin is around 20 and has a twice as old boyfriend? Doesnt even clean her shit? Always "busy" (aka. laying in her bed and watching Netflix or spending dads money) or "tired from work"? Kitchen and living room would looks like a junkyard if you aren t cleaning it regularly?

Well if yes, thats my room mate. Welcome in the "I have lazy ass room mate who has no healthy sense for cleanliness" club.

I began seperating my kitchen stuff, like pans or pots from hers. So I have a clean pan whenever I wanna cook and not have to deal with a half rotten pan. Even worse: She s eating yogurt out of cups and doesnt wash them in the next days or even weeks.. This whole glass turns into a terrarium. More biodiversity in your sink than in the fucking everglades. Fucking disgusting.

I think quiet a few peeps here on NS made similar experience too...

Not the same! Sounds all to familiar though. Which basically just means that there are multitudes of lazy disgusting girls spreading their shitty roommate tactics on others. Awesome.
 
being dumb hurts. Trying to fix my door with a fishing knife probably wasnt the smartest decision. Lucky that i still have my finger.
 
Had an interview today with a help desk. They wanted me to convert an edge pdf so it opened in adobe acrobat dc every single time. Misunderstood the question and it opened in adobe once. I eventually got it to work but hopefully they don't disqualify me.

Maybe he's charging more so he can pay his employees more? I guarantee you there is a legitimate reason why he isn't running certain lifts and opening certain terrain. It could be a safety reason, a guest service issue or maybe the lifts are actually crap so he needs to charge more to afford the maintenance and upkeep costs.

Not trying to rag on you I'm just saying there is way way more that goes on behind the scenes at a resort than alot of people realize. I seriously doubt dude wants to piss people off on purpose especially the first weekend of high season.

13766382:B.Gillis said:
Well considering the minimum wage 10 years ago was at least a dollar less I'd say he's right on par. Liftys are the lowest of the totem pole at any ski resort and no one goes to work at a ski resort expecting to make ass loads of money so I'd say just above minimum wage is pretty damn fair. 95% of liftys and ski resort employees are seasonal employees as well and you don't find many seasonal jobs that pay more than minimum. Do you know if he offers some sort of yearly wage increase for those people that are full time year round?

Like ming said tons of smaller areas lose money during the week due to the insanely expensive costs of running lifts. It definitely also has to do with congestion, weekends see way more skiers so the resort needs to vastly expand it's footprint. As shitty as this may sound, locals are pretty much the worst thing that can happen to any resort especially a smaller resort like GP. Locals suck when it comes to spending money. Locals are smart, they bring lunch, buy season passes, they own their own equipment. They show up for a few hours, ski a bit and then they leave. Weekend warriors buy lunch, buy daily tickets, they rent and they spend money on everything and anything they can which helps out resorts alot.

$80 for a lift ticket is pretty expensive but what other resorts around you have that many trails? West coast resorts are pushing into the $170/$180 mark this season so in all reality you better get used to it.

I mean I don't want to justify charging 180 instead of 120 especially when conditions aren't great. But here is the thing when the same hill is offering 40 dollar midweek tickets on liftopia and through various other deals in late March and they are selling zero day passes like maybe a handful per day that barely covers the cost of paying the ticket seller let alone the rest of mountain ops and insurance and snowmaking how can you blame them for wanting to cash in on Martin Luther King weekend or Christmas break?

If people actually bought those excellent late season midweek deals that are everywhere in the industry it would be better for everyone and hills would stay open longer in good years and you would get more chairlifts open. But noone does so they have to really try and make as much as possible the peak times.
 
My car is fucking me pretty hard right now. It's more a time thing than anything but the head gasket didn't seal right and it's pissing oil. The part that needed to be welded is golden though. But now have to pull the fucking motor again and put a new gasket in.

I need to be on the road yesterday so this is killing me. Hoping to be on the road tomorrow
 
One of my coworkes is the biggest fucking dick. He places things that we need in other spots without telling us, making us look like fools. THEN he yells at us for messing it up,, like my bad, I didn't see you move the thing, and jumped in when you forced me to. finish what you fucking start or don't at all.
 
fucking hate growing/having/maintaining facial hair and I wish I could shut off the part of your brain or whatever that makes you grow facial hair. blonde facial hair looks like absolute ass if it grows in patchy like mine.

Yup.

First shop did my clutch/tranny, clutch lasted a grand total of, wait for it: 1,536mi. It disintegrated on the freeway... I've been driving manual for 3 years and this is my 3rd manual vehicle not counting a dirt bike so I clearly know how to drive it.

They re-did it last December, cus well, it lasted fuck all of 1,536mi, and that one just went out yesterday at 7,508mi on that clutch/flywheel. They had such a disgusting attitude about the whole thing and were almost mad that they had to re-do their crappy work on it. We didn't have a choice but to let them re-do it cus they were doing it for free and it was going to be shelling out more than I had to get it fixed somewhere else. At this point, it's at a different shop cus there was no way I was going to let them fuck me over again. Thankfully I made it back from Incline without it going out entirely cus it could've been really sketchy on 267 if it went out. It's been spiking in RPM's like the clutch was slipping but since it was basically brand new, I didn't think twice about it. I'm at the stage of mad where I'm so livid about it that I can't even be mad. So now my car is at the shop cus it's such a bitch to do engine work on it that I sure as shit wasn't going to do. My old truck wasn't so bad to do at home but not the Scoobie, no fuckin way!

They could've at least bought me a meal if they were gonna fuck me in the ass.

I'd offer to help you if you were around Tahoe cus my dad has literally every tool you could possibly dream of in air-drill form. Makes everything so easy, plus a Snap-On torque bar. Car problems suck big time and at this point, I'm pretty decent at pulling parts and I have small hands. Good luck, man!

That blows. I've been there though. HAd an engine blow up on the road years ago and got dicked around by a shop, had the new motor blow up right away and them bot do shit

Shady mechanics suck.

This was a friend job at least. I have good friends in philly area that work on cars for a living. Speed isn't always there but I can get a good result in the end.

Surprisingly I'm actually on my way to tahoe. Drove down from closer to canada, Not just waiting for the green light to send it.

Hoping tomorrow night I'm outta here. No rush anymore though. Missed the last orientation and I was invited to a big party of gay skiers/snowboarders on the 23rd that there's no way I'll make. Bummer about the party though. Was looking forward to meeting some people to shred with this winter.

I fixed a lot of other stuff in m sub in the past though. hoping shes bulletproof after this. We will see

Ah I'm trying to just see it as not worth it to be upset about, it just sucks... Trying to tell myself don't be a little bitch, be happy it wasn't something more serious but I'm so over this year. It would be decent if I could catch the next stop off the struggle bus.

That coupled with seriously the most annoying and biggest hassle as far as school stuff goes, I'm not a happy camper lately. Now magically credits that counted over the summer are now only going to be accepted as electives per the second academic advisor I spoke to. Yet, the head of admissions and transfer coordinator were 100% positive that "oh yea those will transfer on as our gen ed requirements". So now I'm going back and forth about if I even want to go anymore, but if I don't go that means no ski team this year. Wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to take the time off but I'm just frustrated people were pulling answers out of their asses instead of tracking down the correct information. All their sources online say different things than I was told by all 4 people I talked to so, I didn't know what to believe. Especially since they were academic advisors, people who were supposed to help... Ah well... Just wish they hadn't left it up until last fuckin week to make that apparent to me.

Man, the really sucks! It just blows when you miss things you were looking forward to or really wanted to enjoy. I feel that, I'm still looking for people to shred with, my ski buddies went down to SoCal for school, decided to finish up the year there. Hopefully it'll be solid after a head gasket fix, they're just so sucky to do in the Subarus. Really tho, if you're around Tahoe, I'm all over the place here. I just can't go too hard until I get my brace.

Hopefully it'll all work out! It's hard to remind yourself sometimes that it's small shit and it will pass eventually. Mostly just a disappointment than anything, but tomorrow is another day.

Word. Yeah I'll be out there soon hopefully. I'll probably stick around for a few years if everything goes well. Seems like a good fit for me. Hoping to be on the road in the morning.

I'm just drinking beer and crushing Wawa until then I guess.
 
Tried to 180 to the tranny on the side of the landing of the first jump at northstar with not nearly enough speed, popped hard enough to make it to the knuckle, knuckled and was working on staying upright so wasnt looking behind me. Was just beginning to turn around when I smashed into the snowmaking poll thats right next to the jump at basically full speed. Now Im on a minor concussion and my backs fucked. The powers that be seem to have decided I can only get injured on vacation and never when actually hitting a feature /:
 
Didn't go skiing today because I was too nervous. Who the fuck gets too nervous to go skiing? Sometimes I wish my brain could just chill out for a hot second or two and let me be normal.

They just set up the park at my hill with all these brand new boxes but i didn't bring home my helmet so i chickened out of that.

truuu. I wouldn't hit park without a helmet. I made that mistake this summer. I hit like a small ass box in the baby park but it was stickyyyyyyy as hell. like, I could have 50 50 it and double ejected it was so sticky, and anyways, I slammed my head in the slush doing the least gnarly thing ever without a helmet on. It kind of sucked a lot haha.
 
I drove all the way to ohio just to drive back to philly.

Thats 1/8 of the way to CA

So basically i drove 1/4 of the distance to California today and Im no closer than I was last week.

Fuck yeah!
 
Man i wish i could take 2 days off this week with like 24 hours notice cuz mommy and daddy are in town then have xmas/xmas day off as well

Fuck this racist-ass new kid already

I dunno, I'm pretty nervous to go cus I wrecked myself good at the end of last season, had ACL/meniscus surgery in May and now I just desperately want to keep it in one piece! But yea, same I think I'll try and go for an hour or two and convince myself my leg isn't going to fall apart or anything ridiculous.

I guess I'll feel better when my brace arrives, but for now, I'll just be chicken shit for a little bit longer XD

13768373:Rodigan said:

Talking about UK. When I ask for the bill it means I want to pay and leave to do other things not sit there with a mini invoice for another 15 mins. When you bring the bill bring the fucking card machine with you so I can actually pay instead of thinking about paying.......jeez
 
STOP TAKING ALL THE MASTER SETS OF KEYS WHEN YOURE JUST SITTING AT THE LOBBY DESK OR OFFICE. ITS ANNOYING AS FUCK HAVING TO CARRY DIFFERENT UNIT KEYS INSTEAD OF MASTER SETS HOLY SHIT.

FUCK YOU FOR TAKING THEM TO LUNCH WITH YOU TOO, oh my god.

I get its newbies but man common sense is just hard to comeby sometimes. You always throw your master set on the desk, the fuck you need them at lunch for???

Oh that blows! You'd think it would be common sense for them to just bring it when they have the bill but damn I guess not.
 
Parts loaded with "bangers" that are a couple tricks that are good and don't look like shit mixed with a bunch of horribly mediocre and sketchy looking tricks that your average decent person riding any park could do better.

But oh cool, they have a sick persona or whatever. Lol. Fuck that.
 
Next time somebody fucks up my order at a resteraunt, I'm going to walk right into the kitchen and dump that shit on the floor. I worked in a busy resteraunt kitchen for three years and it was fucking easy... nobody ever screwed up orders. Lazy bitches.

I specifically asked for the center of my steak to be the color of the blood moon. This is the color of Mars. God it makes me so mad I wanna go back in the kitchen and dump this on the floor!!! I don't care if my server as 8 other, just as needy guests, if she wants my shitty 15% tip she better cook my steak right!!!Because servers definitely cook the meal...
 
I'm gonna knock my coworker out soon, don't show up early and ruin my shift then make it worse by scaring me from behind mid checkout at 10am. Dude acts like a fucking 8 year old, everyone else hates him and I've just stopped having any sympathy for him.

Never had that happen in any restaurant in the US. Although that is a good idea since most places have those little squares that allow payment on a tablet or phone making it much more portable. That's why I prefer to leave cash so I can just leave it and go.
 
Pushing back a little at work. I have been helping out another Dept. that has no authority over me. We've been talking about revamping this thing for years with no changes. Now they want me to take on some of the sessions for them and I said nope. I mentioned the need for a revamp in my response though. Nothing they can do even if I pull out all together but I also can't make them do anything to improve. Gotta love flexing in a bureaucracy.

So you get your tab and just e-pay?

Nah I mean like the little card scanners that people have, more often at small businesses and food trucks etc. Like where the POS system is on the tablet or phone then they bring it over to you and it shows your bill then they slide your card on their device.
 
My ex is the most immature person I think I've ever encountered. Always trying to pick fights with everyone. Everyday there's a political fight on Facebook. He used to always try to argue with his dad fully knowing it would end badly. Now he's trying to pick a fight with me/my best friend. God damn. Why do people enjoy fighting so much? The dude claims to be a carefree hippy but gets all bent out of shape if you don't fucking agree with him. Hes now sent me 16 rant texts about an argument from Friday. He has also texted my best friend several times a day since then. Shit is so stupid. I'm so happy I broke up with him.

You should both block him and not give him the time of day.

I used to be that guy, then I grew up. Such a waste of time it's like arguing with someone on here.

Trueee. I mean, I'm all for discussing different opinions and stuff. But it seems like the purpose of conversation(for him) is to win the "argument" even when no argument is occurring hahaha. But you're right. maybe homie will learn a thing or two sometime haha

hilarious to me how people say the service industry is useless when a good number of people in this country are completely incompetent boobs and would be so lost without these types of things because no one knows how to provide for themselves anymore. there is a reason the restaurant biz is huge and its because people are retards and don't know how to cook.

this fucking guest was getting all pissy with us tonight because the cell service is bad where we are located (its a ski in/out condo high rise in the mountains so cell service being bad is almost expected) and was making it almost our job to make sure her son gets to do a phone interview tomorrow. Is this where we are at in America now? Grow a pair you fucking pussy and go into town and make phone calls then, holy shit I hate this country so much. These kids that cant get through life without these fucking lawnmower parents there to pave the way are absolutely doomed.

blows my mind how useless some of these people are, too. Ive sent maintenance up to numerous residences to help people "fix" their showers when they cant figure out youre supposed to pull and turn the shower knobs. HO lee fuck, its amazing. to be fair one shower was busted but a few others were just complete user error. They must hire servants to do this at their super mega huge compounds these fuckin millionaires call their homes. I cant believe it sometimes.
