OMG not a brazilian!

Donald Rumsfeld gave his usual daily briefing to President Bush this morning, and told him that 3 Brazilian soldiers had died in Iraq last night.

The President was surprisingly visibly shaken. Oh my God!, he said. All the color drained from his face. He slumped back down in his chair and put his head in his hands.

And, after a minute or so, when he was finally able to regain his composure, he looked up at Rumsfeld and asked,

"Exactly how many is a Brazilian?"

LoL

Dear Friend,
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me,
because, I believe everyone will die someday. My name is
Hafis Ali a merchant in Saudi Arabia I have been
diagnosed with Esophageal cancer . It has defiled all
forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a
few months to live, according to medical experts. I have not
particularly lived my life so well, as I never really
cared for anyone(not even myself)but my business. Though I am
very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to
people and only focused on my business as that was the
only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know
that there is more to life than just wanting to have or
make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives
me a second chance to come to this world I would live my
life a different way from how I have lived it.Now that God
has called me,
I have willed and given most of my property and assets to
my immediate and extended family members as well as a few
close friends. I want God to be merciful to me and accept
my soul so, I have decided to give also to
charity organizations, as I want this to be one of the
last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money
to some charity organizations in the U.A.E, Algeria and
Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly,
I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of
my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the
money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and
Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be
contended with what I have left for them. The last of my
money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of
eighteen million dollars,$18,000,000,00 that I have with a
finance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help
me collect this deposit and dispatched it to charity
organizations,
I have set aside 10% for you and for your time.
God be with you.
Hafis Ali.

Too damn hot.

i need to buy me a new toy :P

Hoya R72 58mm lens for my camera is what i want. or the equiv. you get badass photos like these: (before and afters)





i'm outta there!

well - i got my check for the last 2 weeks. my last week check and this weekend will be deposited 2 fridays from now, as well as my vacation better too. when i asked "so, i guess since i didn't take my vacation you're going to make me lose it?" and he replied "i dont know what i'm prepared to do about that yet..".

i better get paid, bitch.

this morning he walks by and asks what i was working on.
"my mileage" i replied.
"how far back are you going?"
"well, i'm starting in july '07 and working my way back."
"gee, how far back should i pay? when was the last check i wrote you? i guess i'll have to look it up and see..."
"i last got paid may of '06"
"i'm not paying all 14 months. everyone else can do it in a timely fashion so could you."
"so how far back should i go then?"
"i don't know. let me think about it, i'll let you know..."

at this point i got infuriated. i told everyone in the back if he stiffs me out of all but july, i'm telling him to shove july up his ass and to give my my damn check, cause my ass is out of here. fuck this.

he did come back and say "i'll pay back to january. i've already paid 40% taxes on the income from last year."

i replied that i guess that would work. god i let myself get pushed around so easily. but damnit, i'm getting paid for my vacation time that i didn't take. i should get my first AIM paycheck the 20th, and my last PCAD paycheck the 17th - that should be a nice weekend :)

anyways. i gotta finish my mileage now. i'm 2/3's done. but i'm hungry. and i think i'm going to go visit Rica. peace.

long time no post

so. hmm. the boss is not pleading with me. "tell me what it'll take to stay".

let's break it down this way, straight out.

i make $30k a year. actually, he's been paying me $32.6k for the past few months. i was offered $42k to leave, with $55k to be expected within a year. i was offered $38k to stay. i gave him my notice.

the only guy worth a shit that i interviewed said "$50k plus full benefits" (btw i get no benefits). joe just laughed at the notion. now he sees how screwed he currently is.

how. i'm sure i can ask for my $42k to stay. but i'm thinking i don't want to... even if he offered $50-55k - that'd be hella hard to turn down, but, yeah - i dont see how pcad can support me. plus, at that point, i'll be making nearly DOUBLE the next highest person (well, minus joe). and that's wrong. Jr needs to be at like $38k anyways, and i should be at $45k. but me and him are both at $30k. yeah, i dont see much changing...
