How's Your Day? Archives

I hope so. The issue is the training. I'm having to figure stuff out on my own, and some people get mad if I ask lots of questions. Who knows what will happen now though....my boss's boss just got a promotion. Now my 2 role models for the job are gone...one fired a year ago...and the other is moving on...who knows, maybe this is for the better...

Man, I'm so stressed! I need a shave...(lol)

 

Try not to stress out. If people are having issues with you asking questions because you're trying to do your job and do it well, assuming that you're being respectful and courteous, then that's their problem not yours.

 

Went to the Royal Norfolk Show today. Nice weather.

 

I hear you! I hope you get the opportunity.

+1000. Hang in there. We're all rooting for you!

 

I hope so too...just got a G Bar in the mail!

 

Great razor. Enjoy it.

 

Just checked my Uni results and passed all the modules.

 

What's the sweetest words a soldier can hear at 10am on a Friday before the long weekend?
Squadron to a great long weekend,
As detailed, DIS-MISSED

Beer time!

 

Congratulations!

But Unis? Modules? Sometimes I wonder if we really do speak English here in the States...

Awesome. Enjoy your Canada Day weekend!

 

It can get confusing because we end highschool at age 16, college from 16-18 and University from then onwards.

 

Don't be confused, we speak American. It's a perfectly legitimate language and is derived from English, but until some Yankee chap is peddling bangers and mash that taste like they've been stored in boot and cooked on a bonnet, we're speaking American.

 

or, if you live south of the Mason-Dixon, you speak Southern, which is far superior.

 

uggh...

I was about to watch some Netflix...oh well. All ya'll in the area affected by the weather, stay safe - and send some of that rain over here please!

 

'Scuse me, sir, but are ya'll trying to instigate another War of Northern Aggression?

I'll just settle for cooler temperatures here. This high heat and high humidity is horrid.

 

Except for those who say "Miz-riz Thompson"

 

love it. bless her heart, she sounds like she's from Tennessee or thereabouts. where I grew up, folks suspected that New Orleans and all places north were secretly Yankees.

 

Two informally dressed ladies happened to start up a conversation during an endless wait in the LAX airport.
The first lady was an arrogant California woman married to a wealthy man.
The second was a well mannered elderly woman from the South.
When the conversation centered on whether they had any children, the California woman started by saying, "When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me."
The lady from the South commented, "Well, bless your heart."
The first woman continued, "When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz..
Again, the lady from the South commented, "Well, bless your heart."
The first woman continued boasting, "Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet.
Yet again, the Southern lady commented, "Well, bless your heart."
The first woman then asked her companion, "What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?"
"My husband sent me to charm school," declared the Southern lady.
"Charm school?" the first woman cried, "Oh, my God! What on earth for?"
The Southern lady responded, "Well for example, instead of saying, "Who gives a sh*t?" I learned to say, "Well, bless your heart."

 

I love that joke. *That's not what I had in mind when I posted above. I was thinking along the lines of "that's awesome." Southern is very malleable.
