Rant of the day lol

[Janx101]

from another thread ... its better in here!

Yeah the 'e' models are the nakeds but I thought post  2000ish they dropped the e and just did gs500?  give them the year and they should have it on the screen in front of them.

surely you jest!! .. the rego people or insurance people ... ?!! ... actually know what the hell it says on the screen or be able to use a search function with ANY degree of success?? .. 

i had to correct the rego bloke last time .. cos he managed to frag up the vin number!! .. then the system wouldnt accept the rego plate with that vin number because it belonged to a bloody volvo!! .. 'we' flipped the screen sideways ... had a look over the numbers on screen and on paper.... 'there!!! .. the vin is wrong!'  ... says I !! .... 'well sir the system says you cant have that vin, its taken!' says him ... 'mate its been the same numbers for the last 2 regos, i dont know it off by heart but the inspection man verified it less than an hour ago! .. they ARE the right numbers!' says I .. then i looked down on his out tray .. volvo paperwork resting there ... pointed out a 'very similar dont you think?' vin number to the one on screen .. him went 

... theres 2 ladies in that rego office that DO get it right 1st time every time!... but you cant just queue for them only ... the rest are muppets ... and mostly in every other rego office ive been to ... muppets!!! ...  .. if they can find their butt cheeks with both hands at the SAME TIME!! .. then i would be very much surprised !!

Every group has their share of scum bags. We tend to accept the dooshbags that are in our circle. If we didn't how could Harley people ever put up with each other?

Government Shutdown (true, too): Hire guards to close a privately funded, staffed and operated memorial simply because it is on government land. So to shut down the government we spend more money? It is all political. No cuts to foreign aid. No cuts to pork barrel spending.

Still no cut to foreign aid or supplying arms to other countries.

Restaurants in parks shut down even though they turn a profit.

Still no cut to foreign aid or supplying arms to other countries.

More parks closed - ones which charge a $5-$15 vehicle entry fee, closed and staffed with more guards even though the entrance fees paid the staff expenses. Now, no income and more staffing expenses for guards.

Still no cut to foreign aid or supplying arms to other countries.

DC memorials which before had a guard or two for security now have MORE to keep people out.

Still no cut to foreign aid or supplying arms to other countries.

Over 90% cuts to NASA. Who do you think takes care of all the GPS, spy and weather satellites?

Its all political just to piss us off.

Time for massive recalls of our elected idiots.

On that topic, I just tried windows 8 a week ago on my brother's computer. it's so incredibly f***ed i'm seriously considering buying a mac. Always been a PC user and always thought i'd stay that way but goddamn is windows 8 infuriating. Can't do anything without applying updates everytime you use the bloody thing and it couldn't be more counter intuitive. For shame.

[yamahonkawazuki]

regarding windows 8, ill wait until the 7 update comes. to make it 7 like. my main gripe, is in 7 ( any one)  I shut down our shops computers, with 3 keystrokes. taking 2 seconds at most to shut down. ( windows key, right arrow, enter = done. once update for 8 is out, ill upgrade when I can afford a decent pc. until then ill use 7 or build a mac. ( both on same machine aka dual boot. )

There is an add-on I think called "Start8" which puts back the start menu and makes it work again like a computer and not a phone.
I have it on computers at work.

Ah yes - Windows 8.. I have suffered at the hands of the "Desktop build".  Metro is ok on a tablet or touch enabled device but I am glad M$ finally figured out that the rest of us don't want a touch UI on a non touch enabled device.

StarDock must have made a small fortune giving everyone back the start button - but its a pretty dodge fix.  I have rolled back to Windows 7 and life is much better.

Am strongly looking into the latest Linux builds (or at least dual boot) now that Steam is offering a dedicated OS for games - I have more than one PC, so I guess one machine can join the Linux flock to see how it fares compared to Windows.

My rant for the day.. I have to cordinate the move of the lemmings here at work.. like herding cats.. crazy how you have to hold the hands of fully grown adults who get all whiny about emptying their sets of drawers and desks so professional movers can move it.. next time I may not even organise movers

Heres my rant of the day:
I work at a family owned Greek restaurant
just want to give a big f*** you to my boss, seriously the micromanaging needs to stop. I have worked for you for 3 friggin years on the same low paying bs minimum wage with no tips, and i am pretty sure i know what im supposed to f***ing do. There is a reason why ex employees would drink on the job, and now i started doing this as well at least once a week. Its the only way to put up with your repetitive nagging and cheap a$$ greasy business ethics. You call yourself a manager? You sir cant even manage your way out of a cardboard box. I cant wait for the day i finish up my college classes and get a better job so i can tell you to go f*** yourself once and for all.

Who designs plaid? Do you have to go to school for that? Is there a special fabric design course for plaid? If you design a plaid and it is used for boxers, would that make you feel good or embarrassed?
Plaid - where does it come from?
(And I don't mean Scottish plaid so don't even mention it or I will rand again!  )
