What pissed you off today? v.2

Some of you are missing the point.

 

What I am upset about is the fact that he is being penalized by the prison system for having a job and that it will cost him money to be able to continue to go to work while incarcerated. Almost better off being another leech on taxpayers rather than a productive citizen.

 

And, no. In my area, he cannot get a special license to go to and from work from the prison. He has to make use of the transit system which will entail, in his case, two and a half hours on a bus, twice a day. The prison takes him to and picks him up from the bus stop.

I bet there are lots of other criminals who have jobs, and they don't get to keep those jobs when they go to jail/prison.

 

Bottom line is the guy committed a crime and he is suffering the consequences of that. He's extremely lucky he gets to keep his job at all.

I'm not missing the point. I just disagree with you. (1) The distance from the prison to his work site is irrelevant...it's not like the prison or his work site created that distance.

(2) Paying that fee...well, it could've been much worse: loss of his job, higher fee, car accident involving injury/fatality, etc.

 

The OTHER silver lining is that he'll still have his job after his incarceration, yeah?

Snow and ice everywhere :(

 

I couldn't figure out why my subwoofer was rattling when I played loud music, or when the music had a lot of bass. I have previously checked the cabinet and found nothing suspicious, so I figured I might just take the damn thing apart. Turns out the foam surround of the speaker had completely rotten away.

Repairing it will be fun once I can get the glue residue off! I have rubbing alcohol and terpentine but I can't work for more than 30 minutes before I get a slight headache. If I open my door for too long I start freezing.

 

I need to find a new foam surround and gasket (I think that's what it's called). No need to throw this speaker out, it's very good quality.

 

If it ain't broken don't fix it, but if it's broken don't throw it away - fix it! ;)

Fix it if you can, my motto too. Those Cerwin Vega speakers are great.

You shouldn't,

 

Tell people you cut yourself at work.

 

You should,

 

Tell people you got into a bar fight and messed the other guy up even worse.

 

Why,

 

The f**k am I replying in this,

 

Format.

When someone asks if it hurts just tell them it only hurts a little when you laugh. That way you look like a tough guy with a sense of humor. Rocky Balboa might've said this at one point. I forget. :LOL:

All right,

 

You are freaking me out. There is a guy in the bakery production area who can do a great Balboa and Mick impression. :LOL: It will be fun hearing him tonight when I tell him what happened.

Mick has the best lines...

 

Rocky 1: "You're gonna eat lightning and crap thunder!"

 

Rocky 3...

Mick: This guy is a wreckin' machine. And he's hungry! Hell, you haven't been hungry since you won that belt!

DWI

 

No accident, just got stopped after leaving a bar when he had a few beers. It doesn't take much in my state to get a DWI. If I had one beer and got in my car, I could probably get a DWI too.

 

Can't he get a special driver's license that will allow him to use his vehicle to get to and from his job?

 

The same thing happened to my dad a number of years ago. He went out for a few drinks after work and was pulled over two blocks from home and charged with a DWI. He only had two or three drinks but since it was still fresh in his system he tested over the legal limit.

 

Anyways, he was able to get a special order from the court that allowed him to be able to drive his car to and from work and that was it. Maybe the laws are different here? Did this guy have legal representation? My dad got a lawyer, so that may have helped him in getting a less of a punishment.

This is why I have always been in favor of sliding DUI penalties, based on intoxication levels. Not some umbrella punishment.

 

It isn't right for the .085 driver, who is a much safer driver than anyone on their phone, to get the same stiff penalty as the asshole intentionally driving home on a 0.25 every weekend (old roommate comes to mind...).

I used to drive for a living, and have since moved on. My biggest fear was getting hit by some jackass not paying attention. I'm glad to see your state throwing drunk people in jail. Your neighbour shouldn't be complaining about having to jump through all these hoops to get to work, he should just be lucky he still can get to work, while locked up.

I hear you. One of my bros spends half his work week driving. An old friend of mine is a trucker. I don't worry about their driving one bit. I worry about some nimrod's. Or someone careless enough to drink and drive. 0.09, 0.2, 0.15, whatever. You drink, just don't drive. It's pretty simple. And that's coming from me, a huge supporter of alcoholic beverages.

I wish the local police had been as vigilant in arresting and throwing in prison and throwing away the key, my former neighbors who were drugs dealers, meth manufacturers, and had both a prostitution and stolen car ring going on, along with a little porn industry. And children coming and going.

I have a project due the December 9th. Part of that project is taking a user profiles address and show it on Google Maps, for which I need to establish some sort of connection between the API, and the mySQL database. Should be easy enough to find out, but most often I find myself infuriated of how much crap I have to waste my time on, before I found out the exact sentence I need to do a search with. And when that has happened you need to read through endless of documents that only give you partial answers, because they all assume you know some shit in the first place. Argh!!! Like there's not enough pressure as it is!

 

I swear it's times like these I want to say "f**k it, where's the rope"!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Btw, just kidding about that last part ;)

Yet there are disabled (and poor, and immigrants, and non-white males) who support him. Go figure.

His bubble is beginning to burst- and that's being well documented.

 

I'll be shocked if he actually wins the nomination of his party.

 

He is a despicable circus act, to be sure.
