RANT ! ! !  >:(  [bang]  >:(  [bang]  >:(  [bang]  >:(  [bang]  >:(  [bang]

Why do people make commitments and don't follow? [thumbsdown]

Why do you ask, beg me, better said to please do a job on a Sunday, we set up a time for appointment, don't show up, don't call and when I call, you tell me that due to late night partying, you overslept,  [bang] [bang] [bang]

I can't go to the air show and sit at home, pissed off[for a while] trying to think what to do since wife took car ... remember, bike has no battery ...

End rant ...

Now time for a  [drink]

Charge them for your time, Carlos.  Plenty of places charge a cancellation fee. 

I used to charge my students by the class.  I always had a waiting list. If someone didn't call and I couldn't fill their spot, I charged them because I was holding their spot for them.  I wasn't about to lose money because they couldn't get their shit together...

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Yes, it is.

Scary afternoon...B slipped on the ice in the driveway and fell on Otto.  I was at work, he called and told me to come home.  Trip to the ER vet followed.  Thankfully nothing broken.  B's okay too.

If this is anything like having kids, I would be a basket case.  Mucho props to all out there with little ones.   [bow_down]

Or, if a job comes up, get 50% down pmt when they schedule the Sunday appt.  Just a thought.


Good 'ning to all.   Just got done mopping.  Happy with this mop - being the mop critic that I am.

Love me some Murphy's Oil Soap smell.....  And the smell of magic markers and glue paste and puppy breath and fresh mowed grass...
oh sorry.    ;D
