icebreaker 0 #127 May 25, 2003 QuoteQuoteI wanna join, the weather suc.. overhere!! How do I do this & what do I have to sacrifice? My first canopy? Dude, in a few weeks I'll be getting my NEW rig...Will I be able to jump it? WHO KNOWS!!, I hope so, because I'm broke right now, and these Ramen soups are getting on my nerves. Okay, Okay, Okay I'll burn my first canopy in a ritual and dance around the fire as soon as it is full moon.. I'll ask for some jumpable weather for us both! Maybe a good idea that you burn your old rig on the same night ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites CrazyIvan 0 #128 May 25, 2003 Quote I'll burn my first canopy in a ritual and dance around the fire as soon as it is full moon.. My 'Sacrifice' is eating Cup O' Noodles, RAMEN and Crackers, since I've spend some $$$ on my new rig. __________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites CrazyIvan 0 #134 May 28, 2003 Ok, this is the deal, my job was getting ridiculous, no one cared about the 'skills' or quality of work, just numbers and budget, what I mean by that is, they just looked at the number of tickets you resolved, NOT what was the ticket about, in other words, if a tech closed 10 tickets in a day and another tech closed only 2 in a day AUTOMATICALLY the one who closed 10 IS THE BEST tech, of course, if you read the detail of the tickets, this guy just delivered 10 monitors and the other dealt with a blue screen a bad hard drive and data recovery, but, that din't count, just the number of tickets closed. I was the LEAD of the IT lab, having lots of responsabilities and stress, and they had the BALLS to question my 'performance' and what really kills me is that they started spreading rumors behind my back, so, I turned around and left, and today at 8pm EST I was notified BY A THIRD PARTY that today was my last day...so that proves that this company is full of fagots, backstabbing assholes, I'm glad I'm not there anymore, but what really bothers me is that they didn't have the DECENCY to tell me that to my face. Oh well....here I go again looking for another job, the bright side to that is that I'll have a few days to skydive instead of waiting for the weekend. I really needed this thread today. __________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you.
