  17. 13333 No, I'm placing the count where it's supposed to be going.
  18. I am going to try to put this in perspective for you, with an anecdote of my own. The only serious career choices I ever had (that is, choices where I would get a job because of my qualifications) were a) Crime (no, I am not joking. I was offered to shank people for a living.) and b) a chain of drugstore/pharmacy/convenience store hybrids. I took the latter, obviously, and it conflicted with my studies. They were kind enough to move around my schedule according to my classes, but I still had to pull 48 hours a week. For a meagre salary that was not enough to sustain me. I did this for a whole month, taking 5 classes at the same time. Some days, I had to work 12 and even 14 hours straight. My only free days were Sundays, which I spent frantically catching up with coursework. Oh, and did I mention that I was not allowed to sit, at all, during my shifts? Yes, this means standing up for 14 hours straight. People were starting to get concerned by the amount of painkillers I was taking (which, of course, did absolutely nothing to ease the pain). My days were wholly consumed. I was falling asleep in class. Needless to say, I was not having any fun. I endured of this because I was promised that at the end of the gruelling month of training, I would get the shift I was promised, which would be one night a week on the graveyard shift, and then 14 hours straight on Sundays. Then the rest of the week would be for me to devote to my studies. When that month ended, I was told "oh, no, we were expecting you to pick up skills faster. At the rate you're going, you'll need 2-3 more months of training." My response? I laughed. Maniacally. Because it was so funny, you see? These people wanted to torture me for three more months! And they thought I'd let that happen, after the way they had just outright lied to me! So I quit. And you know why I did this? Because I needed the experience. I needed to put something on my resumé. Otherwise you don't get hired, period. Now, I have to start mandatory internship from college somewhere around August. It's exactly like working but you don't get paid. And you get to be treated like shit, too, since nobody likes interns. I look forward to this with a bright, caustic smile on my face. So, I'm telling you all this to show you that what you have is annoying, yes, but truly nothing to get angry about. That is common and happens to many, many people. You'll find a good job eventually, just keep on looking.
  19. 13331 Geez, you people are ADHD with the counting! Heh, thank you again, IL, and likewise.
  20. 13327 Thank you!
  21. 13325 And we're back to spamming...
  22. This is... disappointing.
  23. I have scoured it clean! Clean!

  24. Back in my days, people used to have thicker skin! We didn't get offended by no dayum song on the radio! :rant:
  25. Use it in a sentence... go! "Persoanally, I prefer the larger one for such rough activities." A synonym of wenchfulness?
