TL pushed the meeting back bout to head to it in 5. wonder what the agenda is... in other new forgot my headphones... charging earbuds now.. so meeting is kinda handy in that regard them chits should be charged when we're done.
13338561, im horrible at remembering to charge stuff
Posted by mista k5, Mon Jun-17-19 11:15 AM
i could charge my headphones when i get home but i leave it until i go to sleep. i always forget to leave the mouse charging at work when i go to lunch.

horrible start to the week. made my coffee, forgot it in the house lol

boss is back, supposedly he has some work coming my way.
13338656, charging stuff
Posted by PG, Mon Jun-17-19 02:42 PM
there's a lot of stuff we charge these days.. I remember when the electric razor was bout it.. maybe the cordless drill... seriously though... I have at least 3 or four things to plug in every night now.
13338683, nightly is only the phone and headphones
Posted by mista k5, Mon Jun-17-19 03:51 PM

controllers for the switch and shield tv will go a few weeks between charges so thats good.
13338566, I don't like having to pretend that "normal" people aren't crazy-as-fuck

Started off with my wife at a medical appointment that she had.

Grabbed some Capn' Crunch coated French toast and a cup of coffee before dropping her off at home and heading to the office. Came into the office today to show my face since I was on jury duty this past Friday. I'm leaving in a few though for my own appointment. Time for that good dentist office cleaning again.

Father's Day was a blast. Unknowingly, my wife took her independent arse out to for a couple hours without telling me where she was going. Called when she was close to home and was said, "I need you to help direct me onto the parking pad."

So, I rush outside to do that. She'd gone to our storage unit and cleaned it out by herself. Now, she's home and ready for me to unload the truck and bring it all into the basement. I said, "WTH?" Her response, "Well, I didn't want us to pay for the storage anymore." Again, Father's Day was a blast. LOL

Woke up today in a zone that got me sounding like Marvin Sapp on this song.

Some of y'all may not do gospel music or believe in God. Nevertheless, I do believe that you can still shout at the thought of being victorious in your life and that you have a testimony that someone else, believer or not, can benefit from.

I'M SO GLAD I MADE IT!

Edit:
Also, had to spend $450 on Saturday just to have a plumber replace a cartridge in the shower apparatus. Water was just flowing everywhere even when the handle was in the OFF position.

I'M SO GLAD I HAD IT! LOL
13338663, that's a bit of a beat down after your car ish too eh?
Posted by PG, Mon Jun-17-19 02:46 PM
damn rotten luck.... lol @ the father's day storage surprise.
13338718, Body still sore from all them damned boxes...
Posted by Creole, Mon Jun-17-19 06:53 PM
Yeah! One of my guys is nifty with his hands as far as car repairs are concerned. I’m debating having him do it for me. So, I’m watching videos to see how easy it can be and also looking for information about people who’ve screwed up in similar instances.

Pissed that I paid that $450 to the plumber because I could have done it myself. Unfortunately, I was afraid to misdiagnose and go into the wall. Saved myself a headache and a pissed off wife.
13338568, This week is primarily phone checks and planning
Posted by legsdiamond, Mon Jun-17-19 11:41 AM
Shit is a necessary evil but kind of boring.

I miss my kids.
13338664, you have two more weekends without them or
Posted by PG, Mon Jun-17-19 02:47 PM
are they back for the 29th? lol missing them.. of course you are... still... soak it up holmes cause they are coming back and these days will be a ghost.
13338687, We are going to pick them up on the last weekend
Posted by legsdiamond, Mon Jun-17-19 03:54 PM
I know as soon as I get them they will get on my nerves crying and whining for something

Fathers Day without them and hearing them ask when we are coming

I’m good tho.

They are loved.
13338582, last day off of a four day weekend
Posted by shygurl, Mon Jun-17-19 12:11 PM
Next extended time off isn't until August :-(.
13338666, I have 2 weeks coming up starting the 29th
Posted by PG, Mon Jun-17-19 02:51 PM
and let me tell you coming into/being at work today makes me wish they were here already.
13338586, In the office alone again today...friggin' lovin it!
Posted by tully_blanchard, Mon Jun-17-19 12:17 PM
Got the okay from my manager to do a "wfh test run" the next two days....I'm JACKED! Lol..

Fathers Day was fucked up. Basically got profiled in the record store, then, well...when things aint right with the wife....ehh..

Picked up Prince book I didnt have (A Private View) at Half Price Books over the weekend while I was out driving the Uber.

Looking forward to next weekend like crazy. THe Kid and the wife will be gone...rejoice!

13338670, really? shitty.
Posted by PG, Mon Jun-17-19 02:56 PM
profiled in the record store.. I mean anywhere obviously.. but in the record store.

13338697, He was gonna fold up a few records and pocket them
Posted by flipnile, Mon Jun-17-19 04:12 PM
Obviously, lol.

I got a weird vibe at a hipster record store a few times, and haven't been back to that spot since. Well, that and they got rid of the $1 and $2 bins.
13338709, I was at a chevron the other day
Posted by PG, Mon Jun-17-19 05:43 PM
picked up a bunch of junk food and was gonna get some gas... the woman behind the counter asked me if I wanted gas and said yeah but I'd like a total on the snacks first... she then say they don't do that and that I have to order my gas before she starts ringing up my order... I call bullshit she tries to tell me it's the system not her fault and that it's corporate policy etc.. I scoff tell her that is not true that her customer service was fucking terrible and to forget the gas... I then went two blocks further and hit the next chevron bought another snack just to prove the point and voila.. no issues... "what's the total on the snack? great can I get the change is gass please?" "sure no problem that xyz amount of gas"... thanks for letting me vent... I can't imagine if I was profiled for my race that would make me homicidal.. I've been profiled for looking sketchy but that's not the same thing by any stretch..
13338969, Right? Thats why I wear cargo shorts...lol
Posted by tully_blanchard, Wed Jun-19-19 12:05 AM
I'm in the store looking dad danna muh fugga..

The store is jam packed...muh fukkas got their dogs in the store and shit..it was crazy. I'm in the r&b section looking for the "Prince 4ever" box that I never got. The only section that was empty was the section that I was in, and the racks were fucking immaculate. I just get finished flipping through the P section and I see a dude on my left shoulder. I look over and he's feverishly straightening out the immaculate hip hop section and trying not to look up. I says:

"You need something?"

Oh..oh uh...you need help finding anything?

"What were you doing just now?"

Oh uh..straightening the shelves

"Theyre already straight dude...come on.."

Can I help you find something?

"Do you guys have the Prince 4ever 4LP box? I didn't see it in your rack"

Oh oh..uhh...did you look in the Prince sec

"Yes I looked...thats why I'm asking if you have it somewhere else, since it's a box set"

Oh oh...uhh...well...I'm gonna go look around the store and I'll find you and let you know

Of course dude never came back. Instead of blasting them on social, I called the store. The manager called me back and we had a long convo about it. This store ALWAYS does that shit. Even The Kid knows how they are. I'm done shopping there, but I did want to givr the manager a heads up to fix the problem.

And yeah...Fathers Day was awful.

you can get the cross-reference check going to verify.
13339088, true
Posted by mista k5, Wed Jun-19-19 03:38 PM
i found out pretty quick it was a board issue. for one, okayplayer.com was still working. switching to my phone hotspot or directly on my phone would not load either.

i still was a little worried that they somehow were able to block it even on my personal phone.

13339091, paranoia is a drag... this is what's working mine today.

thats no good, what kind of nut?

today is the funeral of the ceo. they sent us a schedule. didnt go. theyre having a service for him at work tomorrow, i thought it was today. it says everyone is encourage to attend. thats basically required right? i do think i will go to that.

bought some items yesterday. plates, drinking glasses, cutlery. some clothes as well. kind of been needing to do so but kept forgetting. need to get some jeans next.
13339132, I have a lot of catching up to do...
Posted by Trinity444, Wed Jun-19-19 05:44 PM
with you, friend...

so much “stuff” I don’t know where to begin lol

family?
the business?
love?

lots going on ...

overall, I’m good tho :-)



13339151, I grieve! But I have missed all the family funerals the past ten years.
Posted by SuiteLady, Wed Jun-19-19 07:51 PM
Since I have a big family there has been more than one. And I am about to miss another one.

I am not hardhearted. I am not trying to be disrespectful. I just would prefer not to go to funerals.

Hopefully, I can get in touch with my uncle tomorrow. Tried today but his son said he was incoherent.

Yeah, I will probably get cussed out by more than one cousin next time I see them, but I am ready for it.
13339199, Found out that I can get that axle replaced for $1100 instead of $2600...
Posted by Creole, Thu Jun-20-19 09:50 AM
I'm NEVER... NEVER EVER EVER EVER going back to the BMW dealership again.
13339274, You mean the Stealership
Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Jun-20-19 01:31 PM
Yeah. Only time I used them is if it’s under warranty.

Last time they got me. I called the other shop I use and the quote was even higher so I used the dealership. I hate em.

I don’t even want to get my oil changed there because I think they will fuck up the car on purpose.
13339281, Hell yeah! Not even going back to buy another. That’s how much I’m...
Posted by Creole, Thu Jun-20-19 01:43 PM
over dealing with them.

At least for a few years after I pay this one off next year. A 7-Series shole would be nice but that’s a helluva lot of car. LOL

But yeah... I wanna get three to five years of no car payment once this one is paid for.



13339233, THURSDAY
Posted by PG, Thu Jun-20-19 11:47 AM
Onsite working again... prolly won't be chatting... will catch up tho... I see you all... have a good one.. we're almost there.
13339266, weird day
Posted by mista k5, Thu Jun-20-19 01:18 PM
had the celebration of life for the ceo

also have a rush job that our customer is coming in for today. we received printing plates and they werent mirrored. i checked and i did request them to be mirrored. we are going to try to make it work but already got the correct set on the way for tomorrow.

no real lunch break due to the ceremony so not feeling that but it is what it is. not a bad ceremony and free food.
13339270, how do you make a non-mirrored printer plate work?
Posted by PG, Thu Jun-20-19 01:27 PM
unless it's just a design with no text... I'm probably missing details about the actual printing process or what the "plate" actually is. but having done T-shirt pressing before my mind came to the question I ask you.
13339275, its a clear substrate laminated to another clear substrate
Posted by mista k5, Thu Jun-20-19 01:32 PM
so we will surface print on the intended laminated substrate and laminate the other onto it. in theory. i dont know what can go wrong besides the substrate not taking on the ink well. we will know that right quick.

but either way the ink is sandwich between both films just printing on one film instead of the other. in theory.
13339278, k.. think I get it... good luck.
Posted by PG, Thu Jun-20-19 01:37 PM
save you having to revisit it tomorrow if it works.
13339290, i appreciate it
Posted by mista k5, Thu Jun-20-19 01:53 PM
13339316, well first test was a go
Posted by mista k5, Thu Jun-20-19 03:15 PM
it prints pretty okay. not as dark as were used to BUT the customer signed off. now we just have to hope the lamination doesnt ruin it but that doesnt seem likely.

im glad this customer is so relaxed about sign offs.
13339276, Wife and I went out like it was a Friday last night.
Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Jun-20-19 01:33 PM
Whew. It’s been a minute.

We had fun tho.
13339277, lol.. nice.. good time... how's today feel?
Posted by PG, Thu Jun-20-19 01:36 PM
13339287, Woke up a bit groggy
Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Jun-20-19 01:51 PM
We are doing it again tonight.

We have a live band, free pizza and free beer (good beer) at a neighborhood party so it’s on.

Plus we can walk there.

13339282, ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN!
Posted by Creole, Thu Jun-20-19 01:44 PM

13339285, live it up
Posted by mista k5, Thu Jun-20-19 01:47 PM
13339328, Word. Did you take today off?
Posted by flipnile, Thu Jun-20-19 04:00 PM
Even when we have off on Friday and Saturday, the after effects of the 9-5 workweek has us too sleepy to go out most days.
13339280, Wondering if I can punch through this cubicle wall, through their monitor...
Posted by flipnile, Thu Jun-20-19 01:42 PM
...right through their face and have my fist pop out the back of their head.

All because they've been whistling ALL FUCKING DAY.

I'm abusing the system today and bouncing early-as-fuck before I find out whether I have iron fists or not.
13339284, this is hilarious
Posted by mista k5, Thu Jun-20-19 01:47 PM
good luck
