Posted: Fri Jul 15, 2005 8:04 am Post subject: last day on crappy job |
|
|
Today is the last day at my job, which happened to be a horrible and crappy job with back-stabbing colleagues, a completely incompetent boss and an atmosphere of distrust that was killing all good ideas.
The funny thing is that yesterday I had to go with them on a teambuilding day which ended in everybody telling each other “the truth”. It was all very ugly and nasty. That's really Surreal. Going teambuilding the day before you leave.
But luckily, today is my last day here. Now I’m going to enjoy sun and holidays for the next 6 weeks, after which I will start my new job.
You can’t imagine how happy I am. _________________ The Justified Ancient of Mu Mu |

That's great man, about the time off work..
I personnally am going on vacation for 2-3 weeks, and am very lucky to be working with the nicest and coolest people. Other floors in the building have backstabbing people, and I hear stories all the time.
My boss is like one of my best friends. Course I don't see him outside of work, but we do spend time together almost 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
I see him more often than I see any member of my family and friends. And he is 35 and pretty young at heart, likes movies and music, and is really chilled and understanding if I can't come in one day or want to leave early etc. If my boss would have an accident and die, I'd really feel like I lost one of my best friends, and would probably quit my job because sitting in front of my computer is not my idea of a lifetime job.
And all the girls too, they are a bunch of secretaries and they aren't like bitchy women, they are super nice and caring.
I hope you find people like that at your new job man, it relaly sucks to work with people you can't get along with.
And have good vacation  |

Actually, I can! In about a week, I'll be done with my boring summer research assistant job and I'll spend about four weeks as a camp counselor: one of the most fun jobs in the world! _________________ The official MILF-masta of the AlP forums.

The thing is, I will earn a considerable amount of money less at my new job. But at least I have the job that I always wanted. Sometimes it's expensive to follow your heart, but it still is worth it.

Working in the porno industry is not a great job. It's naive and silly to think it is. _________________ The Justified Ancient of Mu Mu |

Fallout is not a game. Fallout is the future... Fallout will happen... the world will end on the 23th of October 2077!!! _________________

The minions of The Master would probably say that October 23rd, 2077 marks the beginning of the new era... or something like that.
...besides, it's not as if the world as we knew it ended on that day, the Enclave would continue to exist for quite a while. _________________ The official MILF-masta of the AlP forums.

The Master didn't exist until after the 23th of October 2077. He was with Harold's party, who went to the abandoned military base, northwest of the Brotherhood of Steel bunker. There he fell into the vats I believe, or it was just the radiation and FEV shit hanging in the air that turned him into the cyborg like, gooy, ichy, multipersonalitized, "look I'm attached to my own computer with some brown organic goo" Master. _________________

I actually never revealed that plot point when I played through Fallout.
I made the mistake of playing the original Fallout after playing Fallout 2.
After playing through Fallout 2 a few times, the original just doesn't feel as in-depth, just cause Fallout 2 is a lot bigger. I didn't have enough interest to play through Fallout a bunch of times to get every little thing I missed, like I did with the sequel. _________________ The official MILF-masta of the AlP forums.

I first played the demo, then luckily I found Fallout... a while later I found Fallout 2 somewhere, and even after that I found Fallout: Tactics.
But yeah, Fallout 2 is way bigger and stuff. I'm not saying it's better, but it's way cooler.
When I first played Fallout I don't even think I ever stumbled upon the Master. I just armed the nuke and got the duck out of fodge. I read all about the Master in the Fallout Bibles. So that's why I know all that useluss background information about a whole post-nuclear universe that doesn't exist... but I'm happy... caus I know where Iguana Bob in the Hub really makes his Iguana-on-a-stick with!!! _________________

The Fallout games were so great.
I don't think that I every played any other games where the dialogue made me laugh every single time I played through.

Yeah, the dialogues are great. Also all the floating texts, special encounters, and tongue-in-cheek referenced to other movies. I mean, why aren't there more games like Fallout. Seriously. Maybe I'm just a Fallout whore (Maybe... you'll think of me... when you are alone... maybe, the one who, is waiting for you... will prove untrue... then what, will you do... maybe... you'll sit and sigh... wishing that I was near... (Ok, actually I was gonna say "Maybe... I'm definitely a Fallout whore..." but then that song just got in my head and I had to type it... while singing it... thank ducktape I'm home alone)) but really, Fallout has gameplay... a rare commodity these days (when you compare the games to Fallout that is) _________________
