The final Snarkdown!

[iwouldhurtafly]

Haven't heard a thing about all the applications I've put in. Got 2 calls today, and have an interview tomorrow, and one Friday. Yee haw. That is all.

Well good luck to you! Job hunting is absolutely no fun whatsoever, but here are some good interview tips...

1. Get good and drunk before the interview... it is key to be both hung over and drunk at the same time. Top off during the interview too screaming "HAIR OF THE DOG!"
2. Refrain from showering at least 1 week before the interview.
3. Smoke the cheapest menthol cigs you can find during the interview, when they tell you to stop say, "Its ok, they are menthol!"
4. Bring your lunch to the interview, make sure to add extra onions and mushrooms on whatever you bring and make sure you brought enough to share!
5. Randomly burst out into fits of nervous laughter while the interviewer is talking, you know, so they think you are a nice guy.
6. It is customary to hug the interviewer before, during, and after the interview. Some light neck kissing is also acceptable.
7. Ask for a bathroom break within 3 minutes of the meeting and then make sure you ask how long the interview will take a few times at least, their time is important!
8. Dress for success, people say dress for the job you want, so dressing as an astronaut, fireman, policeman, or a super secret spy is completely acceptable.
9. If the interviewer is a woman, make sure you tell her how good/bad she looks in graphic detail, it may also be necessary to do this if the interviewer is a man.
10. Be honest! I know no one likes to brag but make sure you tell them about all the children and kittens you have saved that day from multiple burning buildings. Also explaining how it was actually you who found and killed Bin Laden and how its all a crazy cover up because you discovered a device that will end our dependence on foreign oil but you just need a couple of dollars to get the project started.

GOOD LUCK!

Use UPS and all you have to do is slap an ORM-D sticker on it. Easy as can be.

22lr is scarce around here, too. I lucked out and got 4 boxes of Federal Automatch (325-pack) a couple of months ago. My son shoots 22lr like it's going out of style, but I've had to ration him this year. So far, we're still ok, but it's getting hard to find again. 22lr doesn't net the companies a lot of profit, so it's low on the production priority. Unfortunately, that means dads/kids, Boy Scout troops, Appleseed, and people who love plinking in the woods are finding it harder and harder to do.

Good tip, thanks.

I'm afraid to see the landscape of all this 10 years from now.

Damn UPS, ever time I have a package coming that goes through them before USPS, it gets handed off to the wrong city and given a grand tour of Louisiana..

My parcel has been in Baton Rouge since Friday, today it is "out for delivery" in Slidell, La.

I do not live in Slidell.. I live just outside Baton Rouge. Last time I was waiting on a package that was life or death it went to Slaughter.

Also my mail lady never comes when it rains or comes. I was waiting for medicine via USPS over the holidays and that broad didnt show up Wednesday cause it was 20°F out, Thursday was Thanksgiving, and the she didn't deliver till after 8pm Friday, I know this cause there was nothing in the mail when I checked then woke up to medicine in the morning before that days mail came again.

Cold days are not holidays.. I hate this place.

Thanks! I'll give it a go.

I figured it out on my own after seeing Derek do it, no Google or nothin..

I figured it out while I was snarkin' ya! (of course, I did do it in advanced mode so I could preview it beforehand...)

the carrier must have been pulled over for speeding 1 mph over the limit and is now in jail for 3 weeks... I HATE driving through Slidell..

well just back from the doctor. I have a badly pulled hamstring got me on muscle relaxors anti-inflamtory meds and Percocet for the pain!! no work till Thursday yay me!!! now for a nap!!

 

[GSO1962]

Damn UPS ...

I hear ya!! I've got a box full of Beckers that entered and left Oklahoma City twice. USPS isn't doing much better though....so much for that whole "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds" motto. Apparently snow in DFW does affect completion of their rounds.

There is nothing fun about hamstring injuries; even pro football players have said that it is one of the hardest injuries to recover from. I tore my hamstring (2 out of 3 of the insertions) in August 2011, was out of work for 6 weeks and haven't been able to run since (damaged my sciatic nerve as well, which might be a part of the problem). Do what the doc says; you don't want to make it worse. Ah, well. Enjoy the, er, medications...and be careful handling that new 10 for a little while. No sense adding insult to injury.

You should also ask to borrow money from the interviewer. If he has pictures of his daughter on his desk, be sure to comment on how hot she is.

Thanks man, will do.

On a side note, I just went to the store with my son. He's not gonna have too many probs getting over it. He said he seen it coming a long time ago, that he wasn't even really thinking about it that much.

Christmas is here. Not for me unfortunately, this was the load of T.M.Hunt knives that went to the PO today. More knives than boxes. 8 boxes 13 knives. Seems like folks are buying matching pairs. (Good thing) So, these 13, JerryD picked his up yesterday, and 2 others picked up late last week puts me at 16. About half the pieces I'm devoted to have out before Christmas, think I'm gonna make it, everything else is in the final stages. I'm a little concerned about one fancy hunter, one specific M-18, and a couple of snakeskin sheaths, but me and the elves are workin hard........................Damn I remember when making knives was fun! but seriously, for all you Beckerhead that has been supportive of me the last couple of years. Can't thank you enough!

Hopefully when things slow down after the old Jolly St. Nick hangs up his hat, I'm gonna try to another Beckerhead specific givaway.

Well good luck to you! Job hunting is absolutely no fun whatsoever, but here are some good interview tips...

I've been looking for a shop-monkey for some time now. You, sir, are HIRED. :thumbup: You're qualified to operate a broom and a Shop-Vac, yes? Never mind, I'll train you. Next week, the drill press... (don't grab the spinny-roundy part).

You will be paid in steel scraps and G10 dust, and expected to bring not only your, but my daily ration of beer and bourbon.... but I assure you, the experience and stories to tell will all be worth it! Think of it as an unpaid internship, with brain-mangling hangovers and moderate-to-severe bodily injury provided absolutely free.

Large calibers however are a different story, and if you can find then you cant afford them. At least I cant.

I can't really afford them either, trying to save up for another blade

Learn that big boy..

I think you might big bigger than me

Here's how that works: Starting with the first post you want to quote, click the "+ button on the bottom right of the post. A check mark will appear. Do the same with every post you want to multi-quote except for the last post, which you will click the "Reply With Quote" button, and all of the posts you have selected should appear. You can also highlight and copy text you want to show as a quote and use the last button on the top toolbar, "wrap

tags around selected text" which will show whatever is in it with the "quote balloon". You can also just type in the tags, with you text in between the two. Good luck! Try it on your reply....

That was actually one of Tradewaters many Spare bodies. An intellect that great cant just occupy one brain. When confronted with losing one of his sub processors, or going into... one... more... store, Trade said screw it and jumped.
