But everyone has a stick up their ass, and I get the feeling that if I don't leave the department soon, I'm going to end up killing somebody. I like my boss, but he doesn't have enough of a backbone for dealing with these guys -- we've got one guy who should have been terminated five times over by now, but he's still there for some gawdawful reason.

    That change sounds pretty good, though. I know the grocery guys who do that for my store can get pretty slammed sometimes, but as long as you keep shit organized and don't let it fall behind, and actually do a consistent job with your ordering, it's not a difficult task.
    I have been jumping back and forth for a few years now. Also, at my store, I do everything under the sun (fluorescent light), including wrapping, cutting, grinding, etc.
    My town only has a population of 2000 people though, so its really nothing.
    Sadly, the majority of people in my store need to be terminated, but the only replacements available have police records.

    Wow, you live in a small town. I do everything as well (cutting, grinding, wrapping, stocking, ordering, clean up, etc...) but I live in a town of about 90,000, and we have people who come in from the surrounding towns as well. We aren't the busiest store in the region (obviously, the Vancouver stores have a lot higher sales than we do), but we consistently earn $24,000 on a Saturday, and range between $14-$18,000 on a weekday. Sundays are usually up in the air, but around $20,000. Just a bit too much for one person to do.

    Also, it's a union store, so I'm not allowed to jump between departments. Because "seniority hours" and all that gets fucked up, then.

    Fuck I need to quit my job.

    This isn't about to spiral into another one of those "let's post random OST music" sessions, is it?

    Because I totally forgot to bring ammunition.
    Upload has 7 minutes. So we commence then.

    Oh well, none of the games ran, but at least I've got them forever, or so the e-mail said.

    Okay. I think I'm gonna go play a game.
    Just not sure which one yet.

    Expect an LP of whatever I decide in a few days.

    ... that is actually genius.

    'cept I don't think I've ever beaten it.

    I will have to remedy this.

    I might LP the first 3 Mario games for my first LP. Something I noticed my last play-through was, that each game takes exactly 2 warps to get to the final world.

    It's horrendously complicated if you don't have a guide.

    On an unrelated note, it seems that my USB ports have shat themselves. I hope this is just some goofy bug that'll fix itself when I restart.

    Heh. If you're really good, you can do one game per 15 minute video.

    Although I don't specifically remember the warp points for Mario 2. That was one of the games where I actually had to play through the entire freaking thing in order to beat it, which is why it took me forever.
    Easily the hardest of the Mario games for the NES.

    Something tells me I'm not going to do that one, then.
    At least, not without a bunch of playthroughs.

    I think I've decided on my game.

    Just gotta set everything up. And I wanna see if I can run this through my TV, so I don't have to stare at a small screen while playing.

    Bullshit! Thats the easiest of the three, and the only one I actually COULD do in a 15 minute video. Mario 1 was the hardest by far...I still have the blisters on my camera waiting to be uploaded.
