I'm so freaking bored that I can't think anymore. There is nothing to to here at work. I can't belive that I'm ranting you guys and gals. I need something to do. I want to code the mud, but I really can't get into it anymore because of work. Oh well, I'm off for the last week in Augest like 22,23,24,25,26,27,28.

Our mud just don't need code, it also needs some areas. I just left inspired to map out a new opening area. If anyone wants to help me, senda private message to me. I will welcome all the help I can get.

I have a boring boring job but on the plus side because it's so crap they're bribing us to do it. :D

I'm getting £8 an hour next week. :D
(that's about $12)

Here's a list of all the things I've been banned from doing since I arrived:

- Eating
- Drinking
- Chewing gum
- Swivelling on my chair
- Joking with clients
- Saying anything other than the surveys to the clients
- Wearing shorts
- Wearing trainers
- Wearing my hair down
- Speaking in the canteen
- Reading anything other than the survey
- Writing
- Drawing
- Wearing sleeveless clothing
- Wearing flip-flops
- Working before 3pm
- Talking to people around me

I think there's some more but I can't remember off hand. :p
I'm beginning to think my supervisor doesn't like me very much. ^^;
Mainly because she refuses to acknowledge my existance. :cry:
Then again, so does everyone I work with. ;)

Didn't you forget to add breath to your list? What kind of job to you have?

I'll give you a clue:

"Hello my name's Tess and I'm calling on behalf of *****, we are currently conducting a survey across the UK to assess your electricity supplier. The survey is purely for market research purposes so we are not trying to sell you anything or encourage you to change suppliers. Could you spare us 20 minutes to answer some questions."

Is my opening speech. :p
Damn long. -_-

You ever call me, and I'll swear at you. :p
I find it perfectly allowable to say whatever I like to someone who I never gave my number to. If I didn't give them it they have no right calling it, especially when it's something so pointless. :)

What a job!! If you ever called me (which would be an imposible mission) I would talk your ear off. I'm so bored, but then again I pick up calls from telemarters with pharse "Hello, city mourge?" :biglaugh:

:wonder: Apparently, to combat boredom, your coworkers are slowly undressing you. If they should eventually succeed, we will expect pictures, of course. :lick:

Heh, I used to do a lot of that so it's funny to hear people's excuses so they don't have to answer:

oh I was just leaving
oh I have friends at home
oh "The Young and the Restless" is on

People are too polite.

Whenever I am asked to participate in some survey or whatever, I just say bluntly "No, I'm not interested". No need for excuses. Jehovas haven't been on our door since I was the one to open it :) :D

"Would you by any chance have couple of minutes to..."
"No, not interested!" *SLAM (door closing)*

:bouncy:

I've only ever had to deal with Jehova's once. I was kinda bored so I let them preach for about a minute before telling them I was a Wiccan. Then they made their excuses and left. Lol.

:bouncy:my dad's kinda the same way... 'cept when he does it, it goes a little like this: "go fuck yourself you son of a bitch!"
...and don't assume that little phrase is limited to the privacy of our home...

Heh. My appearance is so menacing that I don't need strong words to back em up :evilgrin:

Zedie, they banned cameras, I knew I forgot something. :angel:

Do people ever hang up?!
DO I LIKE LUCOZADE?!?! :realmad:

I often get people hang up, swear, shout, threaten and abuse and then some who just talk your ears off about things you don't give a damn about and those who take so long insulting you you end up hanging up before they do. :)

EXAMPLE!!!!

"Annoying horrible icky lady: How DARE you! I am in the middle of my Sunday lunch, I think it is most disrespectful and-"

"Me: Oh for goodness sake... -_- *beep*"

Or...

"Another annoying horrible icky lady: I do not wish to speak to you! I do not wish to know how you got my number! I do not wish to receive any calls from anyone!!!!!"

"Me: Then may I suggest you destroy you telephone madam? :angel:"

*beep*

*beep*how: dialing ever number and add 1 to it, repeat

i think that would be an excent idea, destroy the thing that gets you angery
also tell them that your based in New Zeland or someplace far and see how they like running up the phone bill....

:D I dislike unsolicited calls from strangers almost as much as I dislike unsolicited visitors. :finger:

Even if I called you Zedie? :D

We're doing surveys about cruises at the moment. It's surprisingly dull. How can anyone talk about cruises with different companies they haven't even used for 20 minutes? O.o

"Me: So how would you rate them for their range of catering options?"

"Person: I've never even seen their ship!! :bawl:"

We pay for the calls but some people still ask us. :p

:p I have no doubt that if you called me, I would somehow manage to make some pervy comment (unintentionally, of course :angel: ), and you would somehow manage to kick/punch/maim me through the phone lines. :D Feel free to post pics of that padding you mentioned in the Green Temple Thread though. :lick: ;)

With the wonders of modern technology and maybe some of that stuff celebrities pump into their lips. :p

What most photoshoppers fail to get is the blur (or the absence of it)... You can often see the retouched parts because there's a sharpness shift with the rest of the pic ! Tss, amateurs. :)

Yuffie that picture cant be right. Those women must be digitly altered or something. They almost look like those ancient fertility statues they use to worship thousands of years ago.

Actually those fertility statues were big all around, not just ass :) :D

I do beleive the big butt part is real.. but they just took skinny girls upper body to make the illusion =)

Yuffie
08-21-2004, 05:58 PM
Does anyone seriously think that picture was real...?

You people need an eye test. :p

Giea
08-21-2004, 09:10 PM
I don't, but a skinny girl with a big but like that.. WHOA!! LoL

Zedie9
08-22-2004, 11:45 AM
:D Well, the reason I thought the picture might be real was because I have seen a few women with similar dimensions, although the tailgate wasn't quite so immense. ;)

Yuffie
08-22-2004, 06:25 PM
Wow...well that makes me feel better knowing that compared to that my rear is tiny. :rofl:

08-23-2004, 12:21 PM
:( Yes, but it really is a shame your head is so large. :evilgrin:

Yuffie
08-23-2004, 05:46 PM
Actually my head's kinda small I think, it's something else I don't like about myself. :bawl:

EDIT!!!!

This thread seems to have become my place to whine about work so here I go again! :D
I had an amusing person on the phone today, someone Charon will probably recognize as being similar to Mrs Richards out of Fawlty Towers. :p

Sorry about the weird font. Pasted it from msn.
We had got to about question 45 with me repeating things slowly and stuff for the deaf old bat. Then she suddenly said:

Her: "Do you know. I'm bored! I shan't continue I don't think. Goodbye!"

Me: "I'm sorry?"

Her: "I said I SHAN'T CONTINUE, are you deaf? I do not wish to hear any more of this."

Me: "That's ok you couldn't hear it anyway."

Her: "I beg your parden? Did you speak?"

Me: "I said perhaps we could finish it another day."

Her: "No no I'd rather not. I'm leaving now!"

Me: "Goodbye you silly old bat."

Her: "What was that? I didn't hear yo-*beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep*
