Here’s the problem with this line of thought: it would be stupid easy to figure out that Google is spying on all of your traffic with its router.

To be fair, nobody makes Windows Phone apps.

3D animation, special FX and video editing are 3 things I do. You dont want the extra ram, fine. Gimme all ya got.

Given that the asshole shows up every day, if it were me, I’d word up my manager first in the hopes of getting him to back me up.

This whole thing is a bit too underhanded for my liking.

My Dad lives in Vegas. The last time I visited, we all went to the slots:
-My aunt won $20,000
-My dad went to the buffet
-I put $5 in a slot machine, and the machine broke.

Parking Hack!

Probably because nobody anticipated the need given that the free birthday drink is auto-loaded onto your card when the system sees that the date you entered in as your birthday has arrived. Even if it occurred to anyone on the development team that maybe someone could scam the system, they probably said "What's…

Former Starbucks barista here, its a five dollar minimum but even then that clocks in at a total of $1825. the only way I could imagine this ball of crazy being able to” afford” that is if they were a teacher and therefore received Starbucks cards as gifts for both the holidays and the end of the year, then in their…

Your username is awesome. That is all.

We’re coming home along the Thruway and decide to stop at McD’s. There’s a woman and smallish kid in front of us getting huffy and I can tell this won’t end well. And in due time she starts yelling at the cashier, “Why is everything more expensive here? This is ridiculous! You’re ripping people off!” and so on, as the…

I used to work in a bank, we had another branch less than a quarter of a mile down the road. Pretty much all banks in the UK are only open 0900-1700 (if you are lucky, a lot of them close at 1600) in order to give the most coverage we opened at 0830 and closed at 1630, the other branch was open 0930-1730 so there was…

I don’t know why I wait for Mondays when after reading these my mind is flooded with rage and memories of my food service past...

I was riding my bike the other day, stopped at a red light in the bike lane, and a mother crossing the street right in front of me said to her daughter “Watch out for bikers. They NEVER obey the law” while staring straight at me. As I was very clearly obeying every single traffic law.

Maybe this is where I am too lenient on service workers, but to this day I don’t understand how a single hair can instantly ruin all food within a 3 foot radius. I get that it’s gross at a primal level, but what exactly does a strand of hair do that is so threatening and offensive that it can’t simply be removed and…

Regarding the screaming woman in the pizza place: I did have an occasion once where my then 2.5 year old daughter asked me why some woman was yelling at an employee at my local grocery store. It gave me great pleasure to explain, very loudly, that the yelling woman was mean and nasty and probably very unhappy with her…

My last restaurant was the best because the cook was a redhead. Nobody trying to pull the “hair on my food” trick ever got it right! One manager would even pull him out onto the floor to prove it to jackhat customers. It gave me warm fuzzies seeing those scam artists deflated.

The second story reminds me of one of my wife’s tales of waiting tables at Dead Lobster while in grad school.

Starbucks scammer, street eating scumbags, both drive thru biatches.
