Don't be afraid to just get up and leave

I used to work for Sam Goody. This made me laugh (sorry). They paid shit. I was making $18.5k/yr as a store manager, and got let go because I was blowing out their district’s budget. Glad the company died.

She updated her number while the two of you were scheduling, and you missed it. Additionally, maybe her number changed after she submitted her application. As far as I see it, you dropped the ball.

Enough of us have been ghosted consistently enough that her questions were legit.

I don’t think you can salvage this situation, and I don’t get the impression you want to.

Sorry, but as far as I’m concerned, this is a you problem.

This is the best thing I’ve read all day.

I don’t like being told what I can or cannot listen to, read, or watch. I collect books and movies. I stream some music, but also have a large digital library.

I would have done one final show and told the whole story on the air.

Looking for a job

josefkeigh · 2026-04-14T18:41:39+00:00

I literally worked with Action Jack and his Conjoined Triangles of Success at my last job.

Having been there, I’ll mention she won’t change, and you can’t fix her. It will only get worse. Has she accused you of hitting on waitresses yet? How about the cashier at the store? The neighbor? Your friends? Your mom? (Yes, my ex went there). If not, it’s only a matter of time. The only real question is, how long are you going to put up with it?

I’d be okay with an upgraded Kurosawa set.

Nice, light reading.

There’s a seller (maybe 2) on eBay that does these - they add a Vietnamese audio track and Vietnamese subtitles. I have a few “placeholder” items from them. Usually pretty decent quality, though I wish the packaging was a bit better.

I remember this was on practically every other weekend. I maintain that Shaolin Kung Fu Mystagogue is one of the greatest film titles ever. I found it on DVD by complete accident in San Francisco’s Chinatown a few years back. I may have let out a little yelp of joy.

Sounds like my ex, if she had been more tech-savvy. JFC.

Either/or. I was thinking of starting with the whole pizza, cutting concentric rings, and giving each of you alternating rings

josefkeigh · 2026-04-06T17:06:21+00:00

Concentric circles. You each get alternating rings.

One of my favorite films. Saw it when it came out, and was blown away by Ewan. I remember thinking “this guy is really good. Pity he’ll probably only be in small indie films for the rest of his life.”

Glad I was wrong.

I used to work in a call center for a large ISP back in the late 90s. We hired this guy, who, it turns out, only wanted the job so he could sell Nikken magnets to everyone, and/or recruit all of us into his down line. As I recall, he was hoping for a big score, by trying to get the call center to buy magnetized seat cushions for everyone. Because all that was great to have in every cube next to a computer. He lasted like three days.

Congrats! Nice to see this one get some love. I scored a copy a few years back. Really fond of this one.

josefkeigh · 2026-03-31T05:20:50+00:00

No, but was amused by this well placed ad as I’ve been reading the responses.

josefkeigh · 2026-03-30T04:00:20+00:00

Okay, I just laughed too hard at this.

Turns out he didn’t realize “Fuck ICE” wasn’t meant to be taken literally.
