Title: What do you call your job?
Post by: Nash on July 08, 2006, 09:30:45 PM: Okay..... I'm going waaaaaaaay out on a limb with this one...

I just finished listening to 'Levon' by Elton John, where the dude calls his job "Jesus" (because he likes the name).

I'm an art director who does advertising and blah blah blah.... and it usually winds up in piktures.

So I'll call my job: "Crayon."

What's your real job description?

Levon wears his war wound like a crown
He calls his child jesus
`cause he likes the name
And he sends him to the finest school in town

Post by: Phaser11 on July 10, 2006, 06:14:52 AM: Pergatory (spelling)

There are two lines in my office.

Line one; Those who want to yell at me (Many people in the line)
Line two; Those who want to be nice to me (never been anyone in this line)

Remember.
Everyday is Monday
If someone is being nice to you they want something
It's my fault all your icons vanished off your desktop
I have been married for 25 years now, there is no deth penalty in my state, so if I would have shot her I would have been on parols 5 years now.
and last be not least,

"In Detroit, no one can here you screem"

I HATE my job.

Post by: awrabbit on July 10, 2006, 08:44:28 PM: I call my job day care for mentally disterbed mechanics with the minds of

14 year old little girls who like to b*tch about stoopid stuff all day.
its too hot , its raining, so and so took my tools, i cant find the parts that i need <----- 99% of the time i walk out and show them the part in about a second

I have one mechanic that asks me why whenever i ask him to do something ( just like a 3 year old ) kinda wanna strangle him after the third why uhhg !

another one that does the complete opposit of something that i need him to do. and screws that up. been in this biz for 20 years. ( he knows it all )

and another one that gets lost in a place tha the has worked in for 2 years. then comes in my office and says ( i cant find any equipment to work on !!! ( we have 2500 units in our yard as of this morning. )

my afternoon guy brought in a TV lol !!!! ( getting bunches of work done on that shift !)

so now the rest of the crew spend extra time in the break room watching their favorite shows durring the day sheesh ! i walked in there today and had to turn it off .... dr phil was very interesting to them .

so, hope ya get the picture because i could desribe the rest but it is more of the same

it is like a weird kind of day care where the kids get paid ( very well i might add )

but, for the most part it is a pretty cool job. and the best part is i do not have to work in the heat anymore and i am really liking the thought that i will not have to work in the Michigan winter . i will be the one in the office telling the rest of the crew to get their butts back out there all the while i am sipping hot coffee and soaking up the heat.

while they freeze their butts off.

simple, straight to the point, and when I leave in the morning my beloved and wonderful wife can tell me to go there with a smile on her face and be literal at the same time.

Speaking of I think I'll go engage in a little combat maneuvering with her right now :D
