you SOB

WTF, we only have PBR in PNW

what is selfparody?

Typical untravelled american response Typical response from someone with no sense of humor.

prat = Bricktop's favorite putdown sounds a lot = commensurate

I had a Kea (parrot) unscrew my radio antenna and remove the windshield wipers. It wasn't looking for food, just bored. Why were there windshield wipers in your radio?

Face it, they are the next step in man's evolutionary ascent.

I can't afford a shrink for both me and the goldfish, he goes first. Well, your compassion will save you in the end. He's too small to batter fry and I'm not a big sushi fan I love sushi

Oh yeah, well one time, at band camp...

I think I like you!! Right on. You can use up some of your vacation days and come visit this rainy shithole and bitch about not being able to climb b/c of the weather. On the bright side, PBR is on sale!!!

Ooow, looks like you should take one of your vacation days and go see your shrink.

It reminds me of the bumper sticker If you aren't outraged, you aren't paying attention.

No, I mean that they (the raccoons) didn't eat the chickens because they (the chickens) didn't taste just like chicken. you should not post right after one of my inane posts.

So that is commensurate with corporations here.

Funny, I wonder if they didn't taste just like chicken?

It is not the same thing. Not only that, WF only gives 6 holidays a year; most financial centers give 10.

Don't let my cute looks fool you, I will shoot those fuckers dead.

What is MSP? Your friend may have lumped together vacation with PTO. Or was a very high level executive.

Wells Fargo does not start you at four weeks.

Yes, but all of my employers gave more than 2 weeks vacation. Mine too (and remember these are not "gifts"; these are what workers fought for). But you mentioned 4 weeks. I bargained hard for three when I started my job for the corp I am working for now. It is bullshit that I have to do that each time I change companies when I have "put in my time" and gotten the experience that makes me a valuable employee (although I don't wanna bitch too much b/c I love the fact that I even *get* time off that I get paid for--it is a great benefit). I think, and I may be wrong on this, that teachers get to rack up their service time and carry it with them when they move to a different district. I could be wrong on this though. And I assume that private schools and universities are different. Maybe someone who is not a corporate whore can set me straight on the vacation rules of working for the school system.

What I love about that, is the whole self-sufficency thing doesn't seem to work without bottled water and the guns and ammo that SOMEONE ELSE makes.

oxymoron

I am happy to offer my sure shot raccoon-rid-rifle skills here.

No shit!
