Fun with grammar, spelling and.....stuff.

Back when I was a lowly computer tech, one of the departments I worked for was managed by a rather well built and moderately good looking guy who was about 30 years old. He was the only male in the department. He was also the only person under 23 working there. He was also the least comely of the staff.

Sounds like our old cafe manager. He was a chunky guy in his 40s; most of the cafe workers at the time were little high school and college girls.

Maybe a road striper? Painting lines on the road?

There's an old joke about that... involving (TADA!) a blonde, a bucket of paint, and her rapidly diminishing ability to paint long lines. Because she leaves the bucket at one spot, and walks back and forth as the paintbrush runs out, thus increasing her travel time exponentially.

Frighteningly enough, I think I figured this one out: he illegally removed a Denver boot, aka a wheel clamp, from his car.

I think he was trying to write down Unauthorized Use of a Vehicle. Essentially, Auto Theft.

I was actually thinking that myself.

Bwa ha ha.. I remember those filings through app's...

-When asked if this guy had any reasons regarding sex, age, or denomination for not being able to work (such as pregnancy soon, elderly folk not lifting, or things like the following of the Sabbath), he answered: I am a virgin, 23, and Catholic.

-One girl who (very detailed) wrote that her reason for leaving her previous job is suing the admins and staff for rape! Holy cow...

The Old SM from Chesterfield much preferred to hire men... no idea why... Oh, wait, yes I do know why. Most of the teenage girls we had work for us ended up stealing from us. Of course, most of the Assistant Managers he hired did, too, except for Kick-Ass AM, and two AMs prior to him.

SC: Do you have Dumas? D-U-M-A-S.
Me: ... (Type in "dumbass" into the computer). Nope, none of his books in stock!! want me to special order?
SC: No thank you. *leaves*

I would've typed in Yuri Dumas, whispering to myself "you're a dumbass". Then again that's just me and I amuse easily.

The "operations" managers at my local BBY likes to hire cute girls to man the registers.

One of my Geek buddies made the remark that he blatantly ignored any Geek that asked for help. But I never had any trouble getting help from the guy when I had a question. That's when I took a long look at the ladies manning customer service and the check-out lanes. None of those girls were over 25 and they all were very cute. And this guy was an open flirt, despite the fact that he was almost old enough to be their father.

So I gave my buddy my observations: The reason he didn't get any help from this guy was because he wasn't short, cute, and "jiggly." Quite the opposite. My buddy looks like Frankenstein.

Was looking to hire a part timer for my department and one of my bosses had a potential candidate. He had been talking with her for a while (she was a hottie) and suggested I go and talk with her about the position. He's going on and on about how nice she is (uh huh) and she works with computers.
I cut him some slack and go talk to her. She was nice but works at Hooters. Don't know where computers came from. He was a perv.

Back when I was a lowly computer tech, one of the departments I worked for was managed by a rather well built and moderately good looking guy who was about 30 years old. He was the only male in the department. He was also the only person under 23 working there. He was also the least comely of the staff.

He did all the hiring.

It was blatant discrimination, but damn I loved fixing the computers over there.

TADA sounds like something you'd charge a criminal magician with.

What were you arrested for?

<waves magic wand and sweeps aside curtain> TA-DAA!!!

I'm wondering if that first one wasn't actually a striper... like a candy striper at a hospital or something. Of course, if she had been a stripper, then she wouldn't be doing much work with words....

When the work history lists a well-known strip club, putting two and two together is obvious.

Then again, I hear people are into Medical stuff in a sexual context....

I want to know what a "Veihicular wheel-thingy" is, now.

I thought that, too. But if she was a Candy Striper, wouldn't it make sense to write "candy striper"?

sense? what is that? Is that allowed?

Maybe a road striper? Painting lines on the road?
