Sinergy,

I may be wrong but I have seen you talk about your job. Sure you may stand around all day some days- but those days you don't- are you not working Hard? or are you just standing and pointing. "hey that goes over there"

I say that mostly tongue in cheek.

Today I was driving a 36 ton forklift moving 40' steel pipe from the ship to a stack in the yard. I was quite busy, but I did take time out of my busy schedule to stand around idiotically and express my morpheme.

A person has to maintain standards of proper decorum and protocol. Failing that, what are we left with as a species?

Sinergy

Seeing that you come home dirty after a period of 8 or so hours elapsing, and I have to wash the grease spots out of your clothes, I would hope that you actually did something important to put it there and did not rub it into your work clothes just to appear to have went to work

I have found that the most effective way to get grease stains into work clothes for you to wash is.

a) locate oily mud puddle
b) strip
c) express my morpheme
d) throw dock clothes into oily mud puddle.
e) drive over clothes with 80 ton forklift
f) go for coffee
g) put clothes back on
h) express my morpheme
i) go home and morpheme expressingly indicate to you that my dock clothes need washing.

Is it something that is made up of phonemes?

I hate Circuit City worth a passion and do what I can to avoid this store. When you ask these so-called clerks about the products, they have no clue. These people are mostly interested in selling. How can you sell a product without becoming familiar with its capabilities or limitations?

I find them to be useless and if I want to get a computer, I will either shop at Staples or Office Depot, I find the people working there are very helpful and they know their products.

I took my computer to Circuit City because I was having connection problems....could connect to my ISP, but nothing else. Cost me $152 to have them "fix" it, but when I asked the guy what was wrong, he couldn't tell me. Well, less than two months after paying to get it fixed, I just spent a week trying to figure out why it was doing it again....turns out, it was a firewall issue...had two running, tripped across the solution myself, disabled the second firewall, and viola! I'm ba-a-a-a-ck!!!!! When I called circuit city back, they told me I'd have to pay for it AGAIN to get it looked at and fixed......NOT!!!! Knowing what they did to their employees means I definitely won't be back to their store. Let 'em end up in bankruptcy court.....won't bother me at all.
