someone sent flowers here...on the card is has the right address but the person they sent them to doesn't live here...I wonder if I should keep them or if I should call the florist and tell them about the mix up

I think I'll keep them and throw away the card...just pretend that someone loves me enough to send me flowers.

thats very noble of you

2/12/2010 6:05:38 PM

what does the card say?

what if they were from some dude to some girl that he NEVER thought he'd get but then if she saw the flowers she'd have the confidence to tell him that she has always liked him too

WHY DO YOU HATE LOVE!!

2/12/2010 6:07:01 PM

The card says get well soon. And ftr I did call the florist but they had already closed so there isn't much more I can do.

^^^^ sound pretty!

i'm not really a huge rose fan - i mean i think they are pretty but not my flower of choice. HOWEVER i do enjoy a yellow rose. and while i do think fresh flowers are pretty i just can't really get on board with them. i mean i wouldn't cry if someone sent them to me but they just seem wasteful. i'd rather have a plant i think.

My favorite flowers are daisies...I just think they look so summery and happy. I mean I get the gesture of roses, but I prefer daisies...and you can dye them to be really bright colors which I also really like...

2/12/2010 6:37:00 PM

i like that too.
i also like orchids but i can never keep those shits alive. sigh.

and snapdragons! of course i've never heard of these being sent to someone before. but i want a garden full of snap dragons:



and i prefer tulips to roses!

2/12/2010 6:40:29 PM

When I was younger my parents would keep a garden with snap dragons in them...I always thought they were so cool.



If we get enough snow for a snowman I'm going to go out on the beach and make a snowman.

This thread is blowing up.

On the penny arcade forums, they delete threads after 100 pages and make you recreate them.

Last but not least, yo, Eazy's no sell-out

And if you can't hang in the streets, then get the hell out

I'm not tryin to tell ya what to do

You have your own freedom of choice who to listen to

You knew good from bad, fair from foul, right from wrong

Now your mother's singing that sad song

(My baby ain't never hurt nobody!)

But he still got smoked at B?b?'s party

But you're not the first or the last

You're nothin but a short story from the past

You're dead now, not number one but a zero

Take notes from Eazy-E, the violent hero

A man had the week off for the first time since he can remember. He had been working hard so he decided to really relax and go fishing.
He takes the old beat up car and tosses his fishing gear in the car and takes off wearing his worst clothes. He has a great day and catches a whopper of a fish and tosses it in the floorboard of the car because he didn't bring a cooler.
Well, he races home hoping to get there before the fish spoils.
When he crosses the last bridge before he gets to his house he sees a cop car parked on the other side. The cop is holding a radar gun.
Knowing he is caught, and comes to a stop a few feet down the road.
The cop comes to the window and writes the man a ticket. He can tell the man is in a hurry so he takes his time. When he leans in to hand him the ticket he notices a terrible odor coming from inside the car.
He says to the man, "I have seen your type before. Look at you. You should be at work at a time like this. Why don't you get a job and buy yourself some new clothes and take a bath for goodness sakes".
The man says, "I already have a job officer".
"Really? What does someone like you do?"
"I'm an asshole stretcher"
"An asshole stretcher?" Says the cop, "No wonder you stink so bad. How do you do it?"
"Well" Says the man, "I start slow with one finger. Then two and so on. Finally I get so I can get my hand in and then both hands. I then pull and stretch until the asshole is as big as six feet sometimes."
The cop, looking confused, scratches his head and says, "What in the world would someone do with a six foot asshole?"

The man smiles and says. "Put him on the end of a bridge with a radar gun."

I'm considering changing jobs.

My boss's boss completely disregarded all the emails I sent back to him where I needed help and information to move some projects along for HIS boss, misplaced a letter I placed in his inbox (he blames me, but trust me, it's very difficult to put a piece of paper into an inbox incorrectly), and informed me that this letter is actually being admitted into court as evidence against a private company. God... If he finds that letter I submitted with just my signature on it and submits it... He needs to sign his own name on whatever I crank out (at least cosign), because I am not paid enough to enter evidence into court against a company. Personally I think the company and the government have equally justifiable claims and should just walk away from this, but whatever.

God I'm so mad at him for this. I've been working on hot button issues for his boss and getting his projects done for him while cycling out all the other work and responsibilities I've already taken on (which is a hell of a lot considering, the other new guys don't get hit with nearly this level of shit, and they sure as hell don't deal directly with the guy who is their boss's boss's boss). Being talked to like you're a dumbass, being told you're a liar (I do NOT like about my work, I am a fucking professional with anything I take on and greatly resent being told that I am a liar to my goddamn face), and being blindsided with shit when YOU are told not to blindside HIM with shit. Fucking outrageous. People in and outside of my division tell me that I'm doing fantastic work, and this guy has been treating me like shit.

Also, I don't have a boss right now, and I don't have a supervisor just below my boss to help me out any more either. I have nobody to back me up in meetings and all that can happen now is I get shit thrown at me by my boss's boss who spends more time doing work than managing and delegating (the inverse of what a chum of his level should be doing). At least my boss's boss's boss respects my work. Such a great bloody boondoggle, I need to make a lateral shift somewhere else.

For the tl;dr crowd: My boss's boss called me a liar, treated me like an idiot (and has done so since I started work here), and wants me to use my name on something being admitted into court as evidence against a company's actions. The reason he gets away with this is because I don't have a boss because my boss's boss is letting my group dissolve as all the experienced people transfer out to another group, and my supervisor just below who used to be my boss also just transferred so now I have zero support for my work and zero protection for when he just feels like being an asshat.
