Beck Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 being underemployed right now, i woke up at 330AM and cracked a PBR for all the fallen comrades and partners we all have out there- packed the pipes, quaffed a brew, and really ruminated about all the friends I have lost. *I cry into my beer, the lost friends we never see again* Beck's two cents on love and loss Quote
Sphinx Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 You got fired again?! Did your boss find you crying into beer instead of working? Quote
Beck Posted September 24, 2003 Author Posted September 24, 2003 actually, my boss at the newspaper supplies all the labatt's I can drink to go along with a million dollar view down at the Market, sphinx. I've invited you down there before, but I 1) don't think you're very nice 2) don't think you're mature enough to drink 3) would rather hang out with icegirl or kitten BURP! Quote
Alex Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 I think most people would rather hang out with icegirl and/or kitten Quote

Beck Posted September 24, 2003 Author Posted September 24, 2003 its now 12 hours past first post, 3:30PM or thereabouts, and I'm drinking complimentary Labatt's down at the office, scheming up world domination and trying to figure how to go public on NASDAQ with the crime syndicate...any current crime syndicate leaders that have gone public in the last year or so, PM me.... we can go do lunch...or a beer at the office...maybe a start on NYSE would be better positioning...

Dru Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 beck is my inspiration i just poured some of the company whiskey into my cup of coffee god bless the scots! Quote
Beck Posted September 24, 2003 Author Posted September 24, 2003 looking for help with the crime syndicate, Dru... we could be an INTERNATIONAL crime syndicate, with your help... party on, Dru. Drink 'er up, company time is Miller time as far as this shop steward is concerned, screw OSHA! Quote
Dru Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 the only crime syndicate you are gonna get into is the International Greivous Bodily Harm Club, "Chair-Throwin" chapter Quote
marylou Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 Okay I can only feel pity for this poor sot now. Quote
Beck Posted September 24, 2003 Author Posted September 24, 2003 I'm actually sipping a canadian brewski at my bosses' desk, surfing CC.com on his computer (we haven't yet ordered the new G5) he keeps the fridge stocked full of beer. If it weren't for the beer, the sixteen foot picture window with a view of: Puget Sound, Olympic Mountains, Pike Place Market Sign and clock, and plenty of gurl watching, I wouldn't be down here as much... yes, I do drink beer at work that my employer pays for, if that was the question. And I offer an open invite to any boozers who like beer and atmosphere to converge at the workplace... Quote
Sphinx Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 I hate to agree with Marylou, but Beck leaves me no choice.... Quote
Beck Posted September 24, 2003 Author Posted September 24, 2003 ...free beer...million dollar view... BURP Mary lou, even you're invited, if you can bring sphinx NOT. you kids can't even climb into the clubhouse, but i WILL lob free brewskis out the window if you are thirsty, it has nice dormers above the view...

kitten Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 Beck said: 3) would rather hang out with icegirl or kitten BURP! Hope you make it home safely! I'll drink one for you tonight when I am dancing up the city of Seattle! Quote
Beck Posted September 24, 2003 Author Posted September 24, 2003 I walked to work today, Kitten thanks. I'm going to go home in a little bit and make some potato and ramps soup, maybe with some great organic spinach I got today from my friend Shannon the organic farmer... so I'm doing fine. I don't necessarily like having employer supplied beer, it kinda makes me feel obligated though I can't see many jobs like this one in the 'help wanted section' so I'm taking advantage of the company 'perks' so to speak... not to mention that dammed yacht trip with Sound Tourism and the Summit at Snoqualamie...

Beck Posted September 25, 2003 Author Posted September 25, 2003 its actually only 5,000 annually, for three days worth a month of work, plus all the free beer i can drink on the other 27 days Quote

Naturally you're paying taxes, right? so it's probably closer to $100 per day plus beer. Seeing as you're becoming drunker and drunker daily , I figure you'll be fired from this gig before Christmas.
