I guess thats what you get when you basically never talk about your job and then suddenly start talking about it when they promote you.
Nobody even noticed when it happened to me because I was posting about my job daily along with meth posts so it was seamless.
It isn't even anything to brag about. I just worked hard, did a good job, and moved up the ladder into a position actually worth buying ties and making a resume for. This is why they chose to train me for something only a few hundred people in the country are currently certified for.
If you think people are bragging when they say they worked their ass off and got promoted, you're probably a loser. -
2018-06-24 at 12:40 PM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Sploo Needs AttentionIt isn't high turnover where I'm at now. I work in an office/factory/warehouse thing. This guy was here longer than I've been, he just didn't want the new responsibility I guess. I know he didn't owe notice, but its still a dick move when you are currently indespensible and being relied upon. Why would you accept this position and train for it if you were wanting to quit?

Originally posted by A College Professor Power in SWIM's area has been in and out, mostly out, for the last ~12hrs. SWIM uses his cellphone tether for internet connection ( his piece of smegmacock-covered-in-dogshit samsung hunk of garbage (( never buy this shit! and fuck them for making it )) )
Anyway a while after the power went out the connection speed started declining, at some point the indicator at the top of the screen stopped reading the usual FULL bars of "LTE+" and started showing "H" H+" or 1 or 2 out of 4 bars of "LTE" The experience -even on highly advanced modern websites such as NIS- was reminiscent of using dial-up
Earlier in the evening I figured lots of people that would ordinarily be watching cable/satellite television and/or using their cable/DSL internet were now bored and resorting to using their cellphone's data connection. But it's late as fuck and still sucking ass now.
Since I don't know where cell sites near me are located I can't know if my nearest tower(s) were victim of the power outage but since it is still slow I am assuming it was and hasn't normalized itself yet. Just started thinking about how cellular and other infrastructure behaves when operating overloaded and/or on backup/standby power. I figure the wireless provider's equipment is ran through battery backup/UPS power with a standby generator to take over if the power doesn't come back in a few minutes. I would be quite surprised if there is heavy demand for data access at this hour but I'm still seeing unusually slow speeds - perhaps a real person has to intervene and "switch things back to normal".
Got me thinking about emergency situations and the towers becoming saturated with calls to where you couldn't get a line in or out.
That is not how you use the em dash -
