    Understood.

    I'm a manager on one for a large bank. No script we have is something that you can't deviate from nor is it something you could get terminated for it as long as it isn't a regulation that needs to be stated but that wasn't the gear grinder.

          When there are crumbs or other food pieces in condiment containers/jars..

          Examples:
          Bread crumbs in the butter container
          Peanut butter in the jelly jar

                Unfortunately my job also involves plenty of detective work.

                  I have a pair of Sony MD-whatever that still work after 5+ years. I bought them at Circuit City...

                  The set I use for my HTPC watching, I treat the things like gold. I'd be too paranoid to buy a really nice pair(200$+).

                    The make love not war axe body wash commercial that is being playing seemingly every commercial break on MLB Network.

                    Probably means I'm watching entirely too many spring training games this week. (Is that possible?)

                        I've said it before (probably even in this thread):

                        "Spring Ahead" can die in a fire.

                            I look forward to having sunlight again. Getting home at 6:30 I see the sun for maybe 5 minutes.

                              When you lose a fantasy matchup one week even though you had better stats(or more points) than every team in the league that week except the team you faced.

                                Had a Fantasy Football loss of 120-115 or so last season. No one else scored above 100 in the other games . The only thing worse is when you think you've won/tied a game, only to have a stat revision mid week.
