A bag of assholes…

One place had full sized beer and wine fridges. It was hilarious when the tech support people were getting drunk before lunch.

Some of the best corporate holiday parties I’ve been to were at small startups i worked at. Great end of year bonuses as well. Office kitchens filled with free snacks \ drinks and paid lunches on Fridays.

Eventually, they all hire accountants, business analysts, or financial officers. And it’s the same every time - they all start “cost cutting”… First the free food and lunches stop. Then the end of year parties. Then they complain about it being “a lean year” so they have to cut bonuses (about the same time they switch to “unlimited PTO” but guilt you into not taking any nor do they have to pay you out when you quit).

The best is around August or so, they post the financials and thank everyone for helping the company “smash” goals \ previous records, but then have some soulless mid level manager tell everyone at the end of the year they didn’t “meet expectations” so they don’t qualify for a raise.

God, I’m still bitter…

It’s from New York if I recall. At the time of creation (late 1800s), Philly had the reputation of quality \ safe goods, so the inventors wanted to capitalize on that city branding.

Was getting really unhealthy. Lost 22 kgs so far, been going to the gym the last three months.

Starting to see some muscle definition from lifting, stuff is easier to pick up and move around. Wish i did it earlier, but better late than never.

Snitches…

Lol, I’m here sounding it out and it sounds between ruff and woof…

My wife thinks it’s funny that most words with a “t” in the middle, I pronounce as "d"s… Butter is budder, better is bedder, water is wooder, etc…

Also, creeks are “cricks”.

More so, Internet has destroyed the spirit of conversation. When I was younger, people found me charming and intelligent when first meeting me after talking for a bit. Now, they can quickly “google” what I say and quickly learn that I am an ass, bullshitting and exaggerating what I don’t know, but making it up to keep the conversation interesting.

The man is a god damn saint. He delivers food to the elderly on the weekends, my grandma adores him.
