OT: Who gets the last word?

[bRaTpRiNcEsS]

WTF?!?! April 3rd!!!!! ARRRGGGHHH!! I hate cable shows and how they do their scheduling. They air 10 episodes and then disappear for a year. How are we supposed to remember what the hell is going on?

Boo!

I'm more upset about next year being the final season.

 

[Riehlthing]

I hate the way seasons are now. like lost. they only did a few episodes last fall before stopping for awhile. it sucked.

 

[nafnikufesin]

At least they figured it out with 24. Show'em all straight through without reruns or breaks.

These days, most of the TV I watch is on DVD.

 

[Riehlthing]

Lost, Survivor and Amazing Race are the current shows I watch. and Mythbusters if I catch it on tv.

 

[remington69]

The shows that have Season Pass on my Tivo are: NCIS, House, Family Guy, Mythbusters, Lost, Office, Scrubs, South Park, Earl, CSI, and The Shield (when it's on).

 

[nafnikufesin]

This year maybe I'll figure out when The Shield is on live in Canada

Hmm...journal club is in 40 minutes. Perhaps I should actually print out the paper we're discussing and actually look at it. It's a fun read "Ethanol-induced dopamine elevation in the rat - Modulatory effects by subchronic treatment with nicotinic drugz". Basically, it's about booze and smokes. Unfortunately, I'm a molecular biologist and know nothing about what they are talking about. It should be a good time.

Hey rem, the question of the day is: Is Eli's really Chicago's Finest Cheesecake?

I wouldn't know...I hate cheesecake. But, from what people say, it's pretty good. And expensive.

 

[nafnikufesin]

Fuck. The Oilers dealt Ryan Smyth, the heart and soul of the team, for a bunch of nobodies. In other words, they are officially throwing in the towel for any chance of making the playoffs this year.

 

[MyHatred]

Hate to really ruin your day, NFF, but Tony Stark just told me and you to go fuck ourselves

 

[nafnikufesin]

Thanks, but I'd rather fuck my wife

Or you could just take lunch at the end of the day and leave early

I did that once and when I said I was going to lunch my boss said see you tomorrow.

 

[DarbysDad]

I used to work 8-5 also. Take lunch at 1pm. Then take my first break at 4:25, get back at 4:40, work for 5 mins, then take my last break from 4:45 to go home time. That was at a call center. I was leading the account in call time and calls taken, making my boss look good, so he didn't care. Someone complained and they made a rule you couldn't take your last break in the last hour of your shift.

When I was in a department that enforced taking breaks I would take my am break at 10:30 and pm break at 3:30

 

[nafnikufesin]

DD, are you GM for the Oilers in addition to managing the Grim Rookies?

Well, then something happens to it on the way to Arizona, because it's terrible. I carry the plain and strawberry swirl by the slice in my department, and while it does sell pretty well, I don't care for it at all. There's a store brand in the bakery that is pretty damn good, in all flavors available. But the Eli's says "Chicago's Finest Cheesecake" all over the packaging, so I was wondering if it was one of those things where they want the rest of us to think that because we don't know any better.

I also just started carrying Papa Charlie's Italian Roast Beef in my freezer section. Customers were bugging the shit out of us, so I got it in. It's $4.28 and I haven't checked the sales on it yet.

 

[bRaTpRiNcEsS]

I had to close last night, barely walked in the door at 12:30, didn't fall asleep til 1:30 and still had to get up at 6 to get the boy to school on time. Then I spent the morning sewing on 15 karate patches and sadly I still have 10 left, but I have to work 12-9 today so I have to get ready for work instead. And I have to get those 10 done before Saturday morning because it's picture day again.

 

[nafnikufesin]

Ah, the joys of children

I bet it's the way they manufacture and ship it. I know people who have had Lou Malnati's or Portillo's shipped to them have said it's not the same.
