Bitch about your job here

[slunken]

be sure to remind him that you can only trade knives for drugs once per dealer. maybe twice if you're lucky and trade a half-set or something and he/she really loves the knives.

i'm stuck trying to get a rental company to send a tech out to run sound for a local congregation's high holidays services. everybody who has said they could has since backed out, leaving me in a lurch for trying to help out. now i gotta show up there tomorrow and smooth everything over with a sweet plan to make everything work that i haven't thought of yet. whoop

[yo soy el mejor]

i was bored today at work.

[yo soy el mejor]

[yo soy el mejor]

i just dozed off for a minute with my hands on the keyboard. but i don't get off until 5 and then I volunteer at the Y hotline from 6-9.

i cannot wait to get home tonight. b'fast for dinner, baby!

[slunken]

I had to work for 5 hours this morning. I thought it was going to be brutal but it was actually okay. My asst brought breakfast sandwiches and I brought a soul mix (the numero omnibus). Banged out 1200 6 color shirts and finished an hour early.

i'm thirty right now. timing would be good - i'm single, no kids. i could pretty much do that gig for two years and pay off my mortgage. i decided against it, though. it was actually three weeks on, three weeks off. those three weeks would destroy me. i love my spare time even if i don't do fuck all with it. everyday at the end of work i can't wait to go home and do whatever the fuck i want. also i do have a pretty sweet gig right now, all things considered.

[yo soy el mejor]

so happy for you, moons.

[Trotskilicious]

Sounds good then, rigging is hard and dangerous work

[slunken]

i've seen enough movies to know

I sold cutco knives for a month once. You get paid either way, but you get a lot more if you make a sale because it's all commission. I think if you just go and don't make a sale you get like, $30 or something. If you guys know a lot of people you can make a good amount of money, but I don't know a lot of people who I felt comfortable enough to ask if I could go to their house and sell them knives.

The knives are actually really good quality though. They are sharp as fuck when you first get them.

[Trotskilicious]

Can you not sharpen them later?

[coldestrose]

you can, or you can send them back to the factory so they can sharpen them

[yo soy el mejor]

get a rock. bam! knife sharpener.

[coldestrose]

actually, you might not be able to sharpen some of them yourself. The serrated ones have some sort of special cut to them which is what makes them sharper than a regular serrated knife, so I can't remember if they could be sharpened at home or not.

[yo soy el mejor]

there's the rub.

[coldestrose]

they have to get you somewhere.

The sharpening is supposed to be free though. All you have to pay for is shipping iirc

[Trotskilicious]

Basically all you need is a stainless steel chefs knife that you sharpen on the reg

[coldestrose]

Yeah but this knife has an awesome molded resin handle with a blade that runs all the way through the handle and looks like it came straight out of a Halloween movie

can i use that for bread?

[coldestrose]

no yo, they make bread knives for bread. A chef's knife will squish the loaf

[yo soy el mejor]

this is why i just tear into loaves with my chompers.

[yo soy el mejor]

why don't i have a serrated knife?! < o >

[Trotskilicious]

Not if its properly sharpened

[coldestrose]

Get one chef's knife and one serrated knife and pretty much all your knifing needs will be met
