Whoops, that one slipped by me. As you can probably tell I'm not that big of a sports fan.Jmustang1968 wrote:Not every job screens and performance enhancing was a joke... cmon man

Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
As for the people doing weed during a job interview, probably had a lot to do with nerves. In school, people seem to think I am on some sort of recreational drug during tests, because I am very laid back about my situation. Never trying drugs before, I always have to explain to people that I am laid-back because I prepare for the test ahead of time so that I have no stress when it comes time to take it.

First, Congrats!
Secondly, always?
Thirdly, my hand is too big for the "Clap Clap Face-Slap" greeting.
Fourthly, I think I might beat 140 video games this year. I'm don't have a goal, nor do I want to rack up the number, but plowing thru games is a lot of fun.

Secondly, not really, but at least one test per class taken. There is always that one person who is shaking uncontrollably and ready to pass out that asks why I am so calm.
Also, man, 140 games, that is insane. I am jealous! I look back at the stuff I have to beat and I tend to think it is big, but when I spend the time to play through it, it tends to go by so fast! Is there any one of those games that you are really looking forward to?

Beating Bayou Billy was nuts. The difficulty is insane, every villain is a chore to beat, and there is little payoff.BogusMeatFactory wrote:Is there any one of those games that you are really looking forward to?
Bioshock Infinite's last level is giving me some trouble but I hope to beat it before the end of the week.
Out Run and Wonder Boy III are also on my list.

Ticked - Had to go to the big mall in town to go to a Mens Warehouse for measurements for a friends wedding suit. Which that came out odd, instead of a tux we are all buying the same suit. He is not a super formal guy, he is a zoologist, so it makes sense for him.
Smiled - Decided what the heck, lets go into Radio Shack and see what they have. The guy at the counter was selling a cellphone and a rep greeted me and asked what I needed. I simply asked "Do yall have components still?" and the back of the store had two full rows, now granted they were only about 8feet deep, of nothing but components and AV gear. I was shocked. Kits for LED light setups, EL strips, capacitors, fuses, arduino, I mean this was stocked - especially since the one I use to go to in Atlanta stopped carrying solder. This one had ten (10) types of solder TEN! I was kinda expecting them to have a battery club flyer.

I was the same way. I have only been nervous for one test in my life - the bar exam - and it was pass/fail.BogusMeatFactory wrote:In school, people seem to think I am on some sort of recreational drug during tests, because I am very laid back about my situation.

Smile: All packed except my PC!
Super-Smile: Getting up bright and early and hope to be moved in by early afternoon!
Frown: The tint place hasn't called, they screwed up on the tint the first time so I had to take it back. Should have been done 2 1/2 hours ago.

So wait, Luke was interviewing someone who smoked the ganja and was likely on something "performance enhancing" as well...? Usain Bolt?
I have 11 days off from school (university) coming up - a little break between the summer and fall semester. I'm going to get some serious cleaning done and maybe do a little retro gaming.
Still have a programming final to take tomorrow.
