This is How a Pissed Off Designer Quits His Job (There's an App For That!)(Vulgarity Warning)
Posted by admin / Under Application Server
It might not be the smartest way of giving a zero-weeks notice at work, but you've gotta give this guy some credit for doing extra work and making a custom Mac OS X app just for the purpose of quitting. Supposedly the pop up prompt (which apparently doesn't do anything) was seen by the fellow's coworker who explained the situation: He believed he was in a temp-to-hire position, and after three months of extra hours and butt-kissing, turns out it's just a temp position. He was a good worker too. I'd have recommended him. Too bad he burned his...

Gun Purchase Question (Vanity)
Posted by admin / Under Application Server
I purchased two rifles last week. In Maine one must be checked in a database while at the gun store to make sure one is eligible to purchase. Supposedly this information is destroyed by the state in 24 or 48 hours. I gave my address, which was a PO Box I had to give a physical address and prove it. Why would they want my physical address, if the information would be destroyed in 48 hours. Doesnt make sense.

Obama Administration Application for Employment
Posted by admin / Under Application Server
What a dilemma . . . in order to weather the economic storm, there seem to be only two options: one, go into investment banking and qualify for bailout funds; two, apply for a post in the new Presidential administration. But the banks aren't hiring, so I downloaded an application form to be a part of the new regime . . . say, what kind of questions are these, anyway? Such as: Question 2: Have you ever paid back taxes, penalties, and interest based on non-payment of taxes you obviously owed? / / yes / / no. If your answer...

Robot U
Posted by admin / Under Application Server
Robot U by: Deborah Lambert, January 07, 2009 Those who say we’re turning into mind-numbed robots may find ample support for this view in the current crop of college applications. It seems that students’ submissions are so highly polished that they’ve strayed from the real person into “slick misguided attempts at perfection,” says the Wall Street Journal’s Sue Shellenberger. Pity the folks who have to wade through this stuff. A heavy dose of students’ overseas service work starts to read like a travelogue. And school personnel soon detect parental influence after an overload of heretofores and semicolons are sprinkled throughout...
