Best of luck, sfbb... one day a week at $8.45/hr isn't worth your brain power - go forth, and kick some butt. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Have you talked to your manager about getting more hours now that you are out of school for the summer? Good luck with the bank job.
Squeaky bicycles.

I did earlier this week. If by next week I don't have more days I'm going to be mad. If I get this bank job, and actually like it while getting good days, may quit McDonalds and just work at the bank. At least at the bank you don't have angry customers throwing food at you saying it's wrong.

Obviously, you've never been to my bank.
Oh. Never have. Every time I go to the back their so nice to me and it's always been a great experience. I don't know if I can actually be that nice to people. Like seriously. I'm q nice guy, but not that nice. Haha

Hey SF, I'm a CSR for mortgages at a bank, and I'm not really a people person myself. But what helps me is when I pretend to be someone else. Like an actor playing their role in a movie or play for example.

Haha I'm no actor. But with everyone around me acting so nice I'm sure their positive energy will put me in a positive mood. Always does when I go to the bank.

I have no idea why...but I'm not particularly fond of going to the bank. It feels stuffy like a library only with no books to read....

I can get that. Daughter used to ice skate and dance. Always something going on in either milieu. Now the Vulcan is a PITA.
Step parenting with a joint child across three school districts and two states. Let's talk running around. My wife and I are like two ships passing in the night.

Fake overly friendly people have the opposite effect on me. I get annoyed by their cheerful bs.

For a while, I had three kids in three different schools in two different towns and each of them had either Band or Choir...

I woke up at 5.10 with the noise of a crane that was put on a low loader.

For a moment there I was thinking: I know cranes are big birds, but a low loader

A crane... a Caterpillar... Like Bob the Builder plays with.
A low loader, or maybe called a deep loader?

If you mean putting it on a truck to haul it somewhere, the truck used to be called a drop-bed. At least that's what a trucker called it when I called him a flat-bed on CB. This was about 40 years ago.

What's grinding my gears today? When I had to call in sick from work right after the holiday. Damn allergies made me hoarse.
And in my line of work (call center), my voice is important. I can't do my job if my voice is messed up. *sigh* What next?

Is the television state run?
China Central Television a.k.a. CCTV ....completely.
There's some good advice here if anyone is planning to spend some time in the PRC.
