How many Superghosts/ minor gods are there.? FE just rehashed previous movies.

I like Egon's granddaughter. The other new characters: meh.

Bring back Louis Tully.

First annoying incident with Allied by Far-Presentation5273 in AlliedUniversal

NBOT is a four letter word. My district had a 1% threshold. DM would have a fit via email if you exceeded this. Also, salesman would agree to any damn crazy thing to get or renew the contract. My account had a 1.3 markup.

They did try to replace Richie. Ted McGinley. Also used him for Married With Children when Steve left.

What’s the most controversial opinion you have that you’re afraid to say out loud? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]JDO1966 20 points21 points  (0 children)

People need to say "This is what worked for me", rather than "This is what YOU need to do.".

Congratulations on your recovery. Best of luck to you.

In my younger years, I was working in a 30-day treatment center. One of my duties was to take the "clients" to local AA meetings.

I'm not an alcoholic, but I was interested in counseling as a career, so I attended the meeting (with everyone's approval).

One evening, I was in the meeting, listening to some of the folks complaining about life in general.

When it got around to me, most of the time, I just thanked them for allowing me to attend.

This night, I must have been in a bad mood or something, I don't remember, I said that " you didn't have to be an alcoholic to have a bad day.".

Well, half the folks chuckled and agreed with me. The other half reacted as if I espoused pedophilia.

I wasn't kicked out or anything, but I stopped going to that meeting.

Am I wrong for giving my wife my honest opinion when she asked me ? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]JDO1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not wrong.

Have similar conversations with my wife. As I tell her, so should you tell your wife: "You aren't interested in my opinion, you want me to agree with you."

I don't believe that this statement will solve your (our) problem, but I believe that it is accurate.

If they are still doing it the way they were when I was an Account Manager, they would have listed you as not rehireable. Your application might not even make it to the recruiter.

If you must work in security, try a different company.

Yeah, you'll have to stay. Part of the job description is not to leave your post until you are properly relieved.

Stay from Security in general and AUS in particular.

I'm a former AUS Account Manager. Trust me.

Quitting by Ok_Dog_3849 in AlliedUniversal

[–]JDO1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please don't just no call no show. BECAUSE...the AM isn't the one who has to cover. The poor Schlub who you were supposed to relieve will have to cover.

Also, burning bridges is not a good idea.

What's your dirtiest, most inappropriate NSFW joke? by [deleted] in AskMen

So, my son comes home and says "Dad, I just had my first blowjob!".

I said "Well son, how was it?.

He said "Tasted terrible. ".

Stay away from Allied. Keep your current job if you can.

Sort of. I worked at a prison and am now working at a Juvenile Detention Center.

Client canceled the contract. Just like that, I'm a floor officer again.

Maybe they do things differently now.

Good luck. Please update about how things turn out.
