    so, I finally finished my job today, so I'm back to sweet non-employment...

    In the 11 months I've been there we've managed to turn from being arguably the worst clinic in the district to definitely being in the last spot. I can't really take credit for that, because not being good is a team effort, and I'm glad I won't have to deal with this crap anymore*. But, it would be nice to, once in my life, make a difference and be good at my job.



    *real crap. crap, as in calling people and reminding them to send me shit-samples.

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    @DBZ: Shit samples? What kind of clinic were you working in?

Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood."

    It's called a "Stool" sample you scholarly folks and is a pretty standard request.

    Good luck on your next job.

    stool samples and fecal occult blood are the correct medical terms, but...
    taking crap from asshole patient is what I'm no longer doing.

    next job... I should really get working on that one.

    Remind me, this was your side job while you studied, right? Or am I confusing you with someone else?

    My best friend died in a car accident last night.

    Needless to say, I'm pretty upset.

    I'm sorry to hear that...I can only hope the best for those close to him, yourself included.

    I hate reading/hearing the news, especially local news. The reporters trump up the stories to be so sensational and make you feel as shitty as possible about people and the world. Local news is worse, since you find out your neighbors are scum and evil shit is happening all around you. I guess it's my fault for wanting to bury my head in the sand and not know about all the evil shit going on in the world.

    Also, reading Alas, Babylon is depressing.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Charlie Brooker did a bit on this on his Newswipe show:

    I particularly liked his matrix part. His way of talking demonstrated perfectly that you can talk about shit and still make it sound like a news report. (wait, or does talking about shit make it a news report? )

    I find Australian news in general to be better than this though. They mostly report facts/happenings without colouring it like the example here. You'll more likely find this in things like Today Tonight or A Current Affair - where they're expected to add commentary.

    Watch the entire series. It's called Newswipe. He does a really good segment about American media as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aEk864YrKw

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Games like tonight's Rangers vs Cardinals are why putting too much faith in the actions of others will always lead to disappointment, particularly sports teams. That's why I always shake my head when I see people get so fired up for sports events or fantasy leagues. Basing your happiness on the accomplishments of others is no way to live your life.

    Tonight, Cards have 1 on and are down by 2 in the 10th inning and the Rangers choose to walk 0-5 Pujols, the tying run, and pitch to 79-80 Berkman, the only guy who has consistently hit for the Cardinals. Bravo coaching performance by the Rangers. They'll go another 50 years without a world series win.

    The more excited you get, the more you will enjoy it (or be disappointed). That's the nature of it. If it weren't for the hooligans, I'd actually respect the ardent sports fans, for they know how to take everything out of life.

    I hate people who demand freebies.

    There are the nice guys who ask "Do you have any freebies to give away today?", and then you have people who ask any of:

    1) Do I get a freebie with that? (in a manner that suggests he should)
    2) I should get a free stubbie holder with that.
    3) Do I get a free XYZ with that? Why not? I come here every bla bla, I should get ten free XYZs.

    And then you have those people who ask for free promotional items (eg, free backpack if you get 4 bottles of this product) but clearly don't want to make that qualifying purchase (and add in any of the above questions/statements). They harass you about how much they deserve it or how you can write it off as broken, or how I could have taken one home.

    These freebies (whether you like it or not), are pieces of advertisement that companies paid for to promote their product. They cost you nothing under certain conditions, but they certainly do not cost nothing, and are the property of my employer. Your taking it is theft. My giving it to you when I shouldn't (yet knowingly do so) is theft.

    Just wait till the promotion date expires, and I can give the leftovers out to whoever I want. On occasion I've transferred stuff from other stores just so I can do this for some good people.

    Don't give me shit because I'm nice and won't spit in your face.
