The whore lived like a german

Holy shit folks! The Germans are invading my inbox at work these days... I can't read German... so I'm not sure if these are for Viagra or Britany Spears photos or what.

Hey, I can't find Xu Lu in the database. That's because it's listed by last name then First name. So why don't you look for Lu Xu in the list and then tell me if you find it!
I swear some people's children. I got this from not one, but two peole today! People think!, the rest of the list is by last name... don't you think that even though Mr Lu has a short name that he would be listed the same way?!!!?

Oh an Mr. No why don't you actually find out what people want to do before you go and piss on everyone?!! I mean come on. "Hey Mr. No, I want to...", "NO!... um... wait, what did you want?" "I wanted to move stuff into the new systems racks" "Oh, NO! I don't care what other people said, I said 'NO!' it's not ready"

Since when did people who are not bosses become bosses? I mean it seems that the longer you are here you the more you get to say about things that are not even related to your job description.

Change? I fear change, change is of the devil.

Oh and our senior(in rank) person is leaving our little group... this means that I have to take over half of what she did because even though there are three of us left... two of us have to split up her responsiblities because Mr. No can't have any more work to do. So now on top of all the website shit I've been trying to get done... I have to learn how an IDS works and how to get information from it using perl which is not a computer language I'm really familar with... I mean come on... I'm barely getting the hang of PHP. Oh an I have to have it done by next Friday when she leaves... oh and I'm installing an IDS tomorrow on the IP phone routers... yeah don't get me started on this again... The Storm Tooper that is in charge of Telcom is being a total ass... why make things work like they do now? Who said the way it works now is the best way? You afraid of change? Oh yeah, I forgot! You are!

That will be theater 20 Enjoy your show

First day on the new job sucked ass. I was fine for the first two hours. In fact I was kinda enjoying it. Brings back some memories of when I did it before. After the first hours they decided to give other people breaks. So they walked me down to the podium and parked my feet there.

For those that don’t know… the movie theater I am now a part time employee at is a large theater… well okay large by Tucson standards… it has 20 Theaters. The entrance to the theater is in the mall in which you have to walk down this corridor to the ticket booth. Once you get your tickets we have two different setups. The first one is the podium at the bottom of the stairs where the tickets are torn and people go up the stairs and to the right to empty into the large snack bar area. You then have a choice of left or right for your theater. 1-12 on the left and 13-20 on the right. They are not evenly distributed by theater size either. The smaller one has more seats, go figure. The second setup is that we rip tickets on the wings so you are limited in your theater hopping to 1-12 or 13-20. Don’t lie to me and tell me that you’ve never done it. I know I have. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. Did you at least get popcorn?

Anyway… last night was the first setup so I was tearing all of the tickets. I started around 2:30 and shift was to go to 5:00. How long do you think I stood there till I got a break? If you guessed 5:15 then you would be correct. Yep. I never got a break. Then they asked if I would stay and help out in main snack bar because two people decided that today was not the day to work. I had to ask for a break before I went and did that. Mind you it’s after my shift is to end. I’m tired of standing…

So now I’m slinging popcorn. Now those memories of why I didn’t like the job came flooding back. People are stupid… they ask a ton of retarded questions… and they want butter, lots and lots of butter. We should just have a bin that has buttered popcorn. I mean just slather that crap ALL over it and soak it down. Then those people who want that much can have it.

You bastards in xXx 2 need to learn how to put the popcorn in your mouth. You folks in Kicking and Screaming need to figure out how to put the soda in your mouth. Did everyone in your theater drop your soda?!!? Six spills is quite a lot. You folks in Monster in Law need to pick up after yourselves as well... all 210 of you... I mean come on... most of you were women in that show...

Here’s something you may or may not know. The money at the box office goes to renting the prints. Little to none goes to the theater (or so the Germans would have us believe). However 100% of the over inflated popcorn and soda prices goes to pay for people like me to be there. To clean up after your sorry asses. Could I ask that you take out whatever you take into the theater? Is that too much to ask? I’m going to go to your house and drop a bag of popcorn on your living room floor if you don’t. If you leave me a real mess to clean up then I’m going to get a refill on the popcorn and dump that too along with some soda… for good measure.

I saw you….

You who logged onto your computer and decided to Fandango your xXx 2 movie. I know you think you are clever cheating the system by getting 3 children’s tickets. Don’t think I didn’t notice that you are one of the three and you are not a child. Come to think of it, your “kids” would pass for children at Luby’s either. I know you went through… I only get paid $5.15 an hour and therefore they don’t pay me to care enough. However the joke is on you since you had to pay $1 per ticket to Fandango. You better have bought popcorn…. But considering your cheapness with the Fandango tickets… I doubt it.

Oh, and the line for Starwars starts on Tuesday when the mall opens… be there or be in a bad seat. Speaking of Starwars… I can’t see it for two weeks… bastards…

I’ve got two tickets to see Unleashed tonight if you want to go… IM me if you’re interested. I think we’ll see the 7:45 show if I get done at Drama practice in time… otherwise tomorrow night same time.

Speaking of Drama practice....
I saw you...
Going to a movie. Getting Nachos and soda. I even "talked" to you for a little bit. I can't afford to go to movies... why do you think I got a job there? It wasn't for the cleaning up part or slinging popcorn, I can assure you. How can you not pay for a DVD of a show that our drama group did? Did you not think we wouldn't see you at the next drama practice? Did you think that I would forget? You claim to have no money to pay for dues for the troupe... yet you just spent in excess of $50 in movie tickets and junk food... glad to see your priorites are in order.
