    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Never a dull moment at work

Well, i gotta say, i never thought i would be at work when and if a fire broke out, but today, a fire broke out in our receiving area, and i was literally 5 feet away from it when it broke out. It happened when one of the backroom team members was trying to get a pallet of merchandise down from the upper shelves, and apparently he hit our heating system unit (at least i think that's what it was) with the power equipment used to lift heavy merchandise, and all of a sudden i smelled gas, i turn around and five feet away, there are flames spewing from the unit towards the ceiling:ack2::ack2::ack2: I managed to call the code used for fires over the walkie before shouting at everyone in the backroom to leave the store. I swear, i have never moved that fast in my life. Thank god no one got hurt, and the damage, though bad, could have been a heck of a lot worse. So that was my day at work today!

I've actually been living with the fact that pretty soon, the company is going to eliminate a Hard Line team lead from each store, so it's getting dicey. The way my luck has run, it'll be me, cause last year i switched positions 4 times, because each time i took a new position, it was eliminated:angry::angry:
 
If you dont want dull in your day to day work... come work with me... promise it wont be dull.

Hey, now that you're pregnant...if they fire you, sue them :dgrin:. Have some attorney argue that, that was the reason behind your termination :dgrin:

When things were going bad at work...what I did was started wearing a leg brace. Then they'd feel too guilty to fire me :dgrin:. Since you now have a disability, you're good to go :thumbsup:

(disclaimer...I am just joking about pregnancy being a disability :eek:)

It would be nice to have a job that gave me satisfaction, and makes me feel like the work i do is important and is appreciated by others. Sometimes i feel really underappreciated:(
