Chat is fun.

Chat has created the Sphinx Pineapple Company, "When you care to insert the very best."

We've been supplying pineapples to shove up people's bums for a month now, and now it's your chance to get in on whatever floor you want!

Here's our current lineup!

Sphinx, CEO and Head of PR, is the madwoman who dreamt up the concept.
Technical.Angel, one of many titles, VP, CIO, Head of R&D, Courier and Insertion Specialist.
PuckishOne, Head of HR, is the one who must be obeyed.
Ringman is our Operations Manager, and Sphinx's own sex monkey! ;)
The Gatekeeper and Misanthropical are our Courier Security Mavens and Insertion Restraint Specialists
Lionman is our Location Security
ByrontheBanker is our CFO.
CrabbyCabbie is our Head of Transportation.
JuniorMintz is our Vision Plan Coordinator and our Vision Safety Supervisor.
BroomJockey jockeys on in as the Head of Custodial Services.
Crow the Robot is our Coordinator of Pineapple Purchasing.
LostMyMind is our Insertion Quality Control Specialist.
BrassCowboy has intercepted the position of Training Video Creator.
ihatethenba68 speeded off with title of Courier Transportation Expert (aka Get away car driver).
XCashier is our new Corporate Office Manager.
Jaden is my IT intern. Thus, the person who does all my IT work while I play on the internet!
Tanasi is our Secretary of Pineapply War.
DGoddess has joined up as a Courier and Insertion Specialist.
JPurple is our Southeast Asian Fruit Procurement Specialist.
ZumZum is our General Manager of General Pineapply Details.
Knightmare is our Public Relations Executive/Maker of Pineapply Hats.
Protege is an R&D Executive.
Spiffy McMoron is our Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Distribution.
Irving Patrick Freleigh is a Marketing Executive.
IDrinkaRum is a Marketing Executive, and is reponsible for the Pineapply Photoshoots. Expect "Sex Monkeys of SPC, Swimsuit Edition" calendar coming out soon!
NightWolf, who fell off the face of the planet when it came to posting here, is the Admin Asst for HR, and Puck's Sex Monkey.
and, most importantly, Rapscallion is our mascot, and a member of R&D.

We need a Head of Marketing and a Network/Server Admin.

We are located in Mexico, as to staff our warehouses at very low cost.

We are in need of the full gambet of CSers. We need our phone jockeys, and well, Phone Jockey to answer the phones and take orders, but don't worry, there's no such things as SCs here! If someone mouths off to you, mouth off right back!

We need R&D experts to help come up with our special mixes, and Courier and Insertion Specialists to deliver and "deliver" our pineapply revenge to those who, for whatever reason, can not do it themselves! Of course, the more Couriers we have, the more Courier Security and Insertion Restraint Specialists we need. If you can think of any job title we're missing, please let us know.

Join our company. Free Pineapple with application!

But hey any opportunity I can take advantage as far inserting foreign bodies up other people's orifaces.

LostMyMind

09-14-2006, 01:34 AM

Can I be Quality Control Inspector. Someone got to inspect all those freshly inserted pineapples to make sure the correct amount of force was used and the pineapple has been twisted properly. Give me a stack of "Reject" sticker for do overs and I'll be happy.

Any openings for those who are on dialup and tend to find chat impractical? :D

I'm a VERY good secretary/bookkeeper and a good alibi witness. "No, officer, I really don't see HOW my friends could have found time to do that, since they were over here all evening. Yes, we really did have this many people in this small a space, and no, those nice elderly people next door wouldn't have noticed, since they're both hard of hearing." :devil:

Well, I'm sure Puck will need an assistant.

By the by, are we union??

Jenni :angel:

PuckishOne

Some minor business to deal with first:

For those of you who missed the Welcome Kegger for the new hires, fear not! These will be held weekly, Wednesday nights, 7:30pm in the board room. Oh, and trousers are not optional attire at these events...you know who you are. Don't make me get my HR on at the weekly parties.

On to the daily HR grind:

A big SPC welcome to LostMyMind, our Quality Control Inspector. Talk about a dirty job...somebody call Mike Rowe. :D

BrassCowboy and NightWolf, if you'd like to join the HR team, I'm sure I can find places for you. Come into chat when you can so that we can complete the formal sit-down interview.

Seanette, would you be willing to be in our temporary secretarial pool? That way we can call on your special skills as needed, without you having to bother with dial-up connection madness. :)

Crow The Robot: Help in Purchasing is always welcome - come into chat and we'll get everything set up.

And, no, we are not union because we don't need one!! The Sphinx Pineapple Company takes great care of our employees, offers competitive salary and benefits packages, free pineapples, weekly office parties, on-site food and beverage service, casual dress, travel opportunities, as well as a rockin' good time in the chat room (where you can learn more about your career opportunities)! :D

How do you manage the competetive part? I would think this company's pretty unique.:lol:

PuckishOne

09-14-2006, 03:41 PM

How do you manage the competetive part? I would think this company's pretty unique.
Pretty damned easy to be competitive when you're the only shop in town. :lol: I guess what I should have said was "competitive compared to similar positions in industry" or something pompously HR-sounding like that. Ah, well. Chalk it up to the growing pains of a new company. ;)

09-14-2006, 04:55 PM

HEE. This looks pretty cool!

Hmm...my qualifications...I'm a professional wrestler with an anger management problem. Also, I like to play in dumpsters and poison ivy, and I eat enough cayenne pepper to kill an ordinary man...so I've got some heavy resistance to pain built up. And I'm pretty proficient with a samurai sword. AND I once stopped a runaway rolling car with my bare hands (well, hands and locked knees, but still).

Also, I type 60 WPM and I like to do laundry. :D

You got it! Skills include general office/secretarial, bookkeeping, data entry, inventory, shopping, cleaning/organizing, pineapple prep, cooking, kid/pet care, and alibis. :angel:

Do you accept?

Jenni :angel:

Tanasi

09-14-2006, 06:44 PM

Is the position of Secretar of War still open?

My qualifications is two tours in RVN, tour in Kuwait during the first Gulf War. I'm heavily armed (full auto stuff), I'm a good mechanic, good farmer, experienced butcher, can jerk a knot in a kid's tail faster than you can see, and I also have anger management problems, but I'm feeling much better now.
I can also do tech support but I'd rather not.

PuckishOne

09-14-2006, 06:52 PM

Is the position of Secretary of War still open?
You're hired. R&D has been looking into some new stealth pineapple-insertion techniques, so you'll hit the ground running. :D

Tech, please add Tanasi as Secretary of Pineapply War to the SPC roster!

Welcome aboard!

NightWolf

09-14-2006, 07:25 PM

NightWolf, you have been offered a position as Assistant to the Head of HR, AKA Puck's Sex Monkey.

Do you accept?

Jenni :angel:

A sex monkey? Man, I really need to get my picture up on this site, I'm not gonna make much of a sex monkey. Although like Raps, I do have hairy man boobs much like a monkey would. I know, I know, too much info. :lol:

But yeah, of coruse I accept. First thing to bring to the attention of the HRM is the new mission statement.

PuckishOne

09-14-2006, 08:03 PM

First thing to bring to the attention of the HRM is the new mission statement.
Would that be the mission statement that's still being written? :D

This being the sort of organization that it is, suggestions for the mission statement are welcome.

XCashier

09-14-2006, 08:03 PM

Well, I'm sure that will come up, but it's bascially making sure the corporate office is running smoothly...which, of course, it will be once you're on board! :D ;)
Sounds good to me! :D

NightWolf

09-14-2006, 08:14 PM

Exactly!! What better way to have happy employees? Give them a huge voice in where they want to see the company go, sit back, and watch what happens when employee empowerment takes hold. ;)

PuckishOne

09-14-2006, 08:23 PM

Pretty much the only hard-and-fast rule I'm looking at here is that we employees never use our product on each other. After that, it's the "all-for-one, one-for-all" mentality as far as I'm concerned. ;)

DGoddessChardonnay

09-14-2006, 11:42 PM

Do you need someone to check in those pinepapples as they arrive at the warehouse? Or would you prefer a Professional Installer?

I've got the experience if you need the help.:D

ZumZum

09-14-2006, 11:53 PM

I am also looking for a position. Being the wonderful manager that I am, I can assist in supervising the employees. I excel in delegation.

I am also proficient in handling "problem" customers (and employees, too). Not that there would be any problem employees at this wonderful company.

This sounds like a great company to work for! Are you in need of a South-East Asian branch? I can provide pineapples, jackfruit and durian (uber-smelly, spiky fruit) for those customers for whom a regular pineapple is just not enough.

Please?? I'd ask in chat, but I'm generally on at different times from the rest of you.

As a special company perk, we are offering special SPC pineapple keychains!!

For a mere $6 US, you can receive a personalized SPC Pineapple to carry with you (in a less painful place than we usually place our pineapples)!!

You will receive your pineapple keychain personalized with your job title and username (space permitting).

You can view the keychain here http://www.hawaiiankinestuff.com/pike.html.

PM me if you're interested, I figure we can save some money by ordering in bulk, plus, you know, the personalization.

MEMO:

For those employees requesting a pool, we are currently looking into a nice olympic sized pool with a hot tub right off the main diving area. It is our hopes that by doing interviews in the hot tub, we will be able to get the most from our potential hires and keep everyone else in the company happy. Pina Coladas will availabe upon request from the Eqyptian Pineapple health bar which will be located on the west side of the pool.

Plans are still slightly on hold while Puck feverishly looks for good "interview swim suits"

Thank you for your continued dedication and please...have a pineapple.

Gotta like those employees who take initiative, I always say. ;)

As far as the interview attire, I say we use our best individual judgement and leave it at that. The vast majority of us know damned well what we look like in a swimsuit and tend to dress accordingly. Besides, as long as it matches the Official Company Floral Garlands, it's all good. :D

However, Speedos and/or thongs are a terminable offense.

The following are highlights from today's board meeting.

Board meetings are held each weekday from 8am to 4:30pm, Central time.

Jaden is male.
JPurple is female.
BOOBIES!
No matter how much she wants to think it, Puck is NOT the oldest CS member.
Neither is Jaden the youngest CS member.
Puck thinks my scary adventure with a hair dryer in England was funny.
Puck would like to say "stiff" for the records.
Board members will be submitting updated pictures to GBM's photo abulm, so eveyone can admire Puck's pretty long hair.
Puck "Boobies."
Nightwolf related a report of a nurse's aid that wrote up an injury report for a male patient that had an orgasm while she was bathing him.
I poked myself.
Nightwolf, LostMyMind and Puck had a very long discussion on the merits of WoW.. I think.
Ringman "Puck gonna strip on a webcam for us?"
And finally, Boobies.

That is all, don't forget to PM me if you want an offical SPC pineapple keychain.

Lest anyone get the wrong idea - and to save what pathetic tatters of my reputation remain - there was no actual showing of boobies, no webcam striptease, and yes, I am inordinately proud of my newly-grown-long hair.

What error message?

Rapscallion

It says something about my IP address being an "abusive host" or something like that.

Basically, it thinks I am sending out lots of spam, which last time checked I wasn't.

I'll try it again later.

It's not you, is someone else on your ISP thus gotten the entire ISP banned. I don't know if there is a way to get around that or not.

https://www.afternet.org/ - try the instructions there. They run the show and have to deal with people who need banning. There are ways around it I believe.

I would like to apply for a job...since I can't be in chat, due to previously scheduled conflicts (:D ), could I possibly be considered as an outside consultant or something?

I also am skilled in chopping up pineapples for use in salad bars and fruit platters, if those help qualify me for anything. I've been paid to put those skills to use for almost three years now.

OK, it works now. Guess my IP address changed after I restarted this morning.

Hopefully it works tomorrow.

Okay, GateKeeper is threatening a coup of SPC. So now we need bodyguards for Sphinx, Puck and I.

Please apply ASAP.

Well, I am still having problems with the chat room.

I tried to go in again and again I got a message saying my IP is a former abusive host (damn spammers).

I guess I can get around that by registering an account with whoever runs the chat room, but I can't even do that. It says my hotmail address is not allowed (very stupid if you ask me, that eliminates about 99% of everybody on the Internet)

Then why I try to send an e-mail to ask what kind of e-mail I need to be allowed to register, I get another message saying I am not authorized to do that.

I guess somebody doesn't like me. :cry:
