Lesson of the day is: stop telling people you’ll see them over the summer!
September 10, 2007 at 3:31 pm | In Uncategorized | 1 CommentAlright, so today was the first day of school for the kinder in my town. So, that means that summer is over in my book, there is homework afoot! There are many things you want to do over the summer, but just too many for me to rant about, so I arbitrarily picked one(I can do that, I’m awesome).
Ok, so you won’t see many people over the summer. Every asshole and their friends will say to every friend that they should see each other over the summer. Most people if they’re lucky will see like half of those people at some sort of large group meeting, like a party or some bull shit summer school thing. Now, I don’t really count that as “seeing” someone because you just happened to be in the same place as the other asshole (yes other, you’re one too). So, at best count you prob see like 5 people that you are really close to, those are your best friends. These people you say very often, maybe once a week or maybe twice a day. Everyone else is just an acquaintance. Now, they are very important, its good to get a lot of people you know so that they can do favors for you. I don’t really like some people I see from week to week, but they could fuck up my shit if I cursed them off at first glance, so I just stick to “hello” for now.
So, you are most likely thinking, does this asshole really want us to believe that he didn’t do this? No, I did do this. I, just like everyone else has a shit load of people that I’m on a first name basis with. First, I have Georgie Bush, you may know him from his random appearances on the Daily Show staying stupid shit. And then there are loads of others who just don’t deserve a roasting on my blog. So, out of lets say 100(prob small, but I piss off a lot of people, so maybe its too big) people are my acquaintances that I would actually say something to if I saw them. I saw maybe like 50 of them over the course of parties, student group meetings, school functions, and random greetings in a store or arcade. Now, I only actually met in a small group(4 people is small in my book) or independently with about 5 people. so, thats like 5% of people I talk to are really my friends, damn thats pretty shitty. Well, some of them are more important than others, but just happened to be away or wouldn’t want to sit around watching scrubs all day.
Well, there you have it, you didn’t see many people over the summer like you said you would, so stop saying it. Oh and by the way, when I tell people I should see them over the summer, I usually warn them by saying, it prob won’t happen.
Thats the lesson mein kinder.
Lesson of the day is: don’t give me bad intertubes!
August 28, 2007 at 8:50 pm | In Uncategorized | Leave a CommentAlright, so I’m in Chicago right now on vacation. I’m in a fancy hotel(it has running water) and I was like, wow this place is cool. Its not as good as a hilton(kinda rubs it in my face that a hilton is right next door), but who cares, its just as good. So, its all good and the hotel is pretty cool. Its a little old and could use a renovation, but its clean and the tv works and all that.
So, I find out that the internet is 3.95 a night. Now, you might be like well, thats resonable, its internet. But, what the fuck I was at a fucking 40 buck a night hotel on the way here that gave free internet. This place is like 110 a night and you got to pay. Fine fine, you gotta pay, but it should be like lightning fast wireless internet. WRONG! The piece of shit is giving me a crappy signal in the room. I asked them what was going on and they gave me somesort of adapter to plug into my laptop. Now, that was nice of them, and I have to say that they were nice about it. He offered to give me the number for customer support for the internet if it didn’t fix it. Well, of course the shit doesn’t work. It prob works but when you are always running wireless and try to put a wired connection in, shit goes wrong. Settings that meant nothing before have to be changed from the crap you set them to, its all a big mess. So, that shit doesn’t work. I end up going down to the lobby to see if it will work, and it does. So, hurray, I pay 3.95 to sit in the lobby and use my computer to bash the place.
One more thing, this lobby is boring. It is in a corner showing both entrances so the place is constantly being flocked with people. Its small so its not like you see them, you smell them. Thats how close you are. There is also no tv or something to look at. Even the cheapos will have some tv in the wall to look at. This place has a fucking flower display. Fuck flowers I want tv.
Fuck, 3.95 jesus christ. And the funny thing is, the hilton has a stronger signal than the hotel I’m in. I have to tell the hilton no so I can try and find this places signal. Jesus, fix this shit. If I can get the intertubes going around my house with a 40 dollar router, you can get the shit going through the buliding at 3.95 a day.
And thats the lesson mein kinder.
The lesson of the day is: don’t poke me in the ribs!
August 24, 2007 at 10:56 pm | In Uncategorized | 1 CommentAlright, so the past two days have been hectic at work. We had the same camp come two days in a row(different groups within the camp, but many were siblings, so its like the same).
The kids were complete assholes. I don’t think it was all their fault, they’re parents and camp group were to blame too. They got the cheapest package which includes 7 dollars worth of games and 3 rides. Most camps that do this stay for like 2 hours or so. They are usually a little bored at the end, but it can take a while to do what you want if its really crowded, so better safe than sorry. The camps that get more expensive packages rarely stay past 3-3 and a half hours(including lunch time). These kids were at the arcade for 5.5 hours both days and they brought their lunch meaning they didn’t have to wait for it to get handed out, so that was like 10 minutes to eat instead of 30. So, they had about 3.5 hours with nothing to do but cause trouble. One of my dumbass subordinates gave them free rides because she thought they had them (girls a fucking moron) so I tell her to stop and when they ask why, she points at me while I’m inside a game fixing it. So they come over to me and are like, please please please let us go. And I told them no, they had more than enough already. I was already pissed at some of them for confusing the poor girl that doesn’t understand concepts that she should have learned two months ago. So, I told them no and walked away.
A few minutes later I’m back at the game to finish the repair and they come up to me again and tell me that they should be able to go on the rides. They said the guy with the weird head told them they could go on one more ride. Now, my friend is a nice guy and didn’t understand how much these kids were fucking us over. I walked over to make sure that it was my friend and not my manager that said they could go on. It was my friend, so I told the kids that they couldn’t go on. They complain but I walk away.
I’m in the middle of fixing another game and a girl walks over to me and sits down (I was sitting because it was a low game) to talk to me. She says that everyone went on 3 rides, but she lost her ticket and only went on 2 rides. Now, I know I hate people, but I don’t like to abuse honest people just because some people are assholes. So, I let her go on the ride. She seemed sincere and I still think she was, or atleast thought she was. I don’t know, but atleast she was nice about it, she didn’t yell or beg or cry, she just sat down and was as straight forward and polite as a 10 year old girl could be.
So, I walk away and have to go help some other guests with mini golf and the like. I get my mind off of the camp kids because we had a lot of mini golf guests who need a bit of help to play and don’t like to wait. So, I’m busy trying to get these guys to their games as quick as possible when some little girl comes up to me. She doesn’t say hi, excuse me sir. Or tap me on the shoulder and stop when I say, yes? She pokes me in the ribs and she doesn’t stop. I know that I can’t yell at people, sometimes I can talk with an angry voice, but I can’t yell. I just said, “what!?” and she kept poking. I was in the middle of talking to mini golf guy, who could have used my help and was being nice. I did my best to finish helping him despite the pokes to the ribs(very, very annoying) and then I went to deal with her. I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t respond well to unwanted contact. I was going to brush her off, but she grabbed my arm and was like, I need to talk to you in private. Now, I gotta listen now just incase she really had a problem. I’d rather not have a situation where her friend was stuck in a garbage can(no clue how) and I ignored her. So, she pulls me to the side and then starts to talk. She yells at me for giving her friend a free ride when I wouldn’t give her one. I was like, you gotta be kidding me. I told her that she went on plenty of rides and told her that hher friend seemed sincere. I’m always worried when kids start to yell, because you never know who will care or listen. The girl told me I wasn’t being fair and that she should be able to get another ride. It seems that I gave her friend two dollars worth of stuff, but she only got 50 cents. Now, that seems fair to me because I and my coworkers could have told her no. Plus, she already got more rides than she paid for. So, I was getting a little steamy, I was pissed to begin with. So, out of no where like 10 of her friends show up and start yelling at me too. I just didn’t like this at all, comon wtf. Little girls being bitches, not on my watch. They even started to yell at the little girl I gave the ride to. Like always, I ended the conversation saying that they would not get anything else, and walked away.
So, incase you are ever at my arcade or dealing with any person in any situation, don’t poke them in the ribs, its fucking annoying and just pisses people off.
And thats the lesson mein kinder.
The lesson of the day is: segregation has changed
August 22, 2007 at 9:59 pm | In Uncategorized | Leave a CommentAlright, so I’m sorry I took so long for another lesson, I’ve just been busy. So, whatever, go fuck yourself if you can’t wait.
So, I was reading this article in one of the newspapers my family gets and I found this strange article. It was just strange because it seems like most people aren’t saying much about the subject, but right on the spot. Basicly, it said that most people segregate their schools because they move their families to the best spot to get educated if they can, or else they stay in a crappy area. That basicly equates to low income families living together and more affluant families living in another town. The thing is though, that those low income families tend to be black or hispanic while those wealthier families tend to not be. Basicly, wealthier families are taking their kids out of black schools to put them into better schools.
Now, that may sound awesome, but thats pretty much a destruction of a public education. We’re supposed to be put together in the public schools so that the lazy ass fuckups get out and the kids that work hard and give a shit can kick some ass. Now, I know that I can kick some major ass, but maybe some of those poor kids might do better in my school. I want to kick their asses too so they won’t bitch about college spots. I don’t give a shit what school they goto, I’m still more awesome. Little fucks taking my college spots. My dad went to college so its harder for me to go? fuck that shit! I’m not black or spanish or some other shit like that(nothing against those people, atleast not more than white people) but that doesn’t mean I have to spend more money for college.
Fuck, I want to kick some ass. Hopefully most of those poor people will join the army or marines or something so that I can get a good college education. Sorry poor people, but the playing field doesn’t seem to level right because that would take too much work for some rich people to fix so they’d rather just fuck up again. Enjoy a crappy job(not for too long, you may die in a year or two)!
And thats the lesson mein kinder.
Lesson of the day is: ask for help!
August 21, 2007 at 6:04 pm | In Uncategorized | Leave a CommentOk, some people are just morons. Just accept that no one can know everything and its sometimes easier to ask for help instead of bitching about fucking up. This isn’t one of those, why don’t guys ask for directions, this is just some really stupid shit.
1. If you go into an arcade and it looks like people aren’t using quarters, ask for help. Don’t come bitching to me after you put 50 bucks in quarters into a game that isn’t starting and demanding your money back. There were nails in there you dumbass and you pulled them out.
2. If you don’t know what kind of gas an engine uses, ask for help. At least check the manual to find out if it needs a mixture or straight up gas. Don’t blow away a 200 dollar machine because you couldn’t spend 5 seconds to find out if the engine was 2 or 4 cycle.
3. If you go for a job interview and aren’t sure who to talk to, ask for help. Sitting down and staring at everyone just makes you look like a dumb ass who should never be hired. Have fun walking out of building a day behind on the job search.
4. If you are trying to use a different operating system on someone elses computer and can’t figure it out, ask for help. Don’t fuck up my computer or tell me its messed up if you can’t remember which icon is safari. Jesus christ that pisses me off. Its most likely even open on the damn screen but because it doesn’t say firefox on it, you have no idea where the intertubes went. Get a brain moron.
5. If you are trying to find a folder in someone elses stuff, ask for help. I hate it when someone opens up my closet or bag and everything is turned upside down because they went to the wrong part. Usually its either on the closest shelf or the nearest pocket, but they search there last. Put my stuff back where it belongs and buy your own stuff.
Grr, you assholes piss me off.
And thats the lesson mein kinder.
Lesson of the day is: don’t be rude!
August 20, 2007 at 6:03 pm | In Uncategorized | Leave a CommentSo, as many of you know I work at a local arcade. Its all fun and games until someone just pisses me off, or one of my coworkers. Now, don’t take me for a hate monger or anything, even though I hate everyone, but some people are just asses.
I love it when I go upto someone and ask them if they need help. They glance at me as if I just questioned their ability to read (they can’t) and tell me no in a stern and denegrating tone. So, I brush it off, whatever they know what they’re doing. Well, low and behold about 30 seconds later they come yelling to me saying that the arcade is too confusing and that no one is here to help. I guess that our little greeting 30 seconds ago never happened and now a person wants help. Sometimes, they just walk out in utter disgust asking me how I sleep at night (quite easily). Being the nice guy that I am, I help them or atleast don’t curse back at them in the event that they start cursing.
Now, that has nothing to do with the title, but thats just plain rude anyway and had to be said. So, back to the main idea here. Whenever I or one of my coworkers deals with a rude kid, its almost always safe to say that the parent will be even worse. Now, to those of you out there(all 3 of you) saying that you’re rude but your parents are nice, you’re just fucked up. Ok, so, lets say that I give a kid a dollar back when he never lost it because he was a little upset but was also bossy. Whatever, its just a dollar maybe he did lose it, who knows. I hope that hes here with friends and not with his own parents or I’m going to get a headful. Lots of times his parents will come up yelling to me about how crappy the place is and demanding more money and how games aren’t working. I’ll tell the parents that what their son/daughter played is working and I gave him/her some money back anway. They don’t know how to listen because they are too busy yelling and demanding their money back. The kid is yelling too saying how mean I was (my smile was halfassed or something I guess) and would not recognize his problems. Hopefully, a friend of the family will come up and call the asshole on their wrongdoing and they will walk away cursing my family. Thank you kind and sane people, go and get yourself nice friends.
Now, I got a really specific example about some people being complete assholes. So, at the arcade I work at, we have mini-golf. We also use these cool little cards and you must use them to pay for golf. Many don’t know so go outside with money and I tell them to go inside. Sometimes they are pissed or sometimes they just feel stupid. On a side note I love it when these are the people I asked if they watned help and said no and walked outside to only come back in 2 minutes later. So, one day about a year ago a dumbass rusian woman gave her 10 year old son a 50 dollar bill to play golf with(who the hell has a grant on them these days anyway?). So, I tell him to go inside and put 5 dollars into the machine to get a card. He comes back a few minutes later with a card that has 50 dollars on it and I’m thinking maybe hes going to play games later, who knows. He plays golf and is having a fun time even though he was a little angry over having to walk back inside. A few minutes later I get called into the arcade and hear that russian woman yelling over how her son was told to put a 50 into the machine and she wants her money back. She starts cursing me off, but not just a few choice words, every word she knew and started to get right up in my face. I could either punch her in the face or walk away. I was nice so I walked away. We ended up having to call the police and have them sort it out. Of course I was in the right and the woman was forced to stfu and learn to be nice and responsible. So, if you are at home reading this you russian bitch, I still hate you.
And thats the lesson mein kinder.
