'Hell Bound'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I went and cheered myself up by making a belated "welcome" bouquet for our seasonal gardener.
Bossman makes me fume, but he also looks the other way when I'm late, and I'm surprised he doesn't have a kink in his neck by now. Yes, dumb. Even if he was my dad, it'd still be dumb and outside his realm of beeswax.
re: the owning of "too many things", I don't even know how to begin comprehending where he was coming from with that statement.
Maybe he sees me as parent-dependent highschool kid, and not someone furnishing houses and apartments for the past decade.
He actually told me that I should get rid of my camping gear because I hadn't used it in the past year. Um, hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars of gear (accumulated over the past two decades) that you simply don't purge because of the one year rule and say "I'll just buy new stuff".
He's... he's the biggest bullshitter in Bullshit Town, USA. He has to have an authoritative opinion on everything. And if you counter with information from a respected book or college education, he'll simply shake his head and dis book-knowledge. He's got the life experience, yo.
He makes me so mad, but he also has a very laid back work ethic (comp time exists, even if it's a no-no in the employee handbook) and he keeps the upper ranks out of my face and business. But I also have to research everything he tells me to make sure it's true.

I hate people like that.
Um... that's all I have.
I mean, what's wrong with admitting that you are not an expert at everything? Or even admitting that you are not an expert at most things?

That's a good point, we can't all be John Hodgman.
Hodgman. No e.
If I haven't killed or maimed someone before the day ends, I will be shocked.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

Are you dissing book knowledge, and instead basing your assertion on life experience?
The funniest part of all of this (and by funny, I mean bash your head against a wall) is that part of his rhetoric is "I have no problem saying "I don't know". You can't know everything, and if you do, you need to get a life. That's why there's books."
Just accidentally hit a link bashing NJ and New Jersey lovers. Have even half the people who hate on the Garden State ever been here?
