Today's mildly amusing work story
 

We had a new hire today and I was outside teaching her the art of cardboard baling.

While I was showing her how to load the baler correctly and whatnot, this older guy was out from another store with its cardboard and I chatted to him some. When he got done loading his cardboard in the baler, there was one last piece left. He tossed it frisbee style and it landed perfectly in line with the rest of his boxes. I bowed and said, "Truly you are one of the Cardboard Jedi."

He grinned, mock sneered and said, "You do not recognize the powers of the Dark Side of the Baler, Jedi."

The new girl looked at us like we were nuts. :D

And Izulde eliminates any chance with yet another chick. :D

:D

Noooo, she was looking at you like you were the biggest dorks in the world, and unfortunately, at that moment, she was right.

lol

This thread delivers what it promises.

IT LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!

You work at Target on the price team?

Does your bailer have that scary picture of the hand with the bloody cut off fingers showing you not to put your hands inside the bailer?

what do you mean, "at that moment" :confused:

That modifier is accurate, and does not preclude them being the biggest dorks in the world at any or all other times.

good enuff for me

Replace "mildly amusing" with "highly nerdy", and I think that would be more accurate.

Cue up that youtube clip of the two thirty something guys playing live dungeons and dragons in their basement.

Although I did work at Target one holiday season, for the last two years I've worked at Victoria's Secret. Each section of the mall shares a baler that sits outside.

Do tell. I don't believe I've ever heard of a guy working at Victoria's Secret before.

so the new chick was probably hot as well. Way to go champ, way to go.

What would Fritz had done in that situation?

lol

You can't be serious

I respect the search skills.

This man amazes me all I have to do is search for Dreams and enjoy the show

How did I miss that post the first time around? Classic.

Where have you been hiding at?

Found this in one of those old threads. Mini-golfing is still one of the most underrated things to do on a first date.

Edit: And I challenge Desnudo to list 10 better things to do on a first date.

It takes an Izulde thread to bring ThunderingHERD out of the woodwork...

Word. That's how I snagged my woman...

1. Jager shots contest
2. Long walk on the beach
3. Poetry recital
4. Helping the needy
5. Breakfast in bed
6. Marilyn Manson concert
7. Mailbox baseball
8. Singing in the rain
9. Weekend in Paris
10. Clothing the homeless

I knew you wouldn't be able to pull it off.

Dola - Helping the needy is a good idea though. Or any charitable work you can find in your area for that matter. I imagine it would be easier to find daily stuff in a larger city though.

Getting a girl to go on a date with me is charity enough.

Take a girl ice skating on a first date, money.

It's an opinion based list, so you're allowed to have bad taste and disagree. I've always gone straight down the middle with dinner and drinks anyway.

Sometimes I wonder if the same person who is jbmagic is also Izulde. If so, that's range.

jb no like it when you think he fake

why you poor imitation of me?

Not particularly, no. Though I'm going to a party Saturday night where there'll be a bunch of girls from work and quite a few other people besides, cuz S's parties are usually quite the bashes.

If there were a girl in a room at a party, and the only other two people in the room were Izulde, and that make-up heir that drugged women and had sex with them on-camera, I think the girl would take her chances with the rapist.
