My first James Taylor show was in utero whilst my mother was tripping on some pretty heavy fudge.

It's a mystery why people pay to talk in a setting that's pretty much the worst for convos.

Apparently talking in normal conversation volume during shows and concerts is commonplace in China. It's incredibly annoying.

Sitting across the hall from a coworker who doesn't have the mental capacity or ingenuity to use more than the same 2 phrases all day, 5 days a week! I hear these same 2 phrases more in a week probably than I did in my entire lifetime leading up to this job.

1) "Well the thing of it is..."
2) "Right, no doubt" (when agreeing with someone)

well since it's not really advice per se i will post here. But ebay (and most business actually) constantly making themselves "better" and inevitably becoming way worse. all these recent changes and now email notifications come through randomly and majorly delayed, if at all. this includes item ending, items sold/unsold and everything in between. Its super annoying. while i am at it what's up with a buyer who purchases multiple items leaving feedback and instead of getting a positive for each its just 1. all items were shipped separately and sold in individual auctions. have you had enough yet, cuz i got one more. why do they make it default to ship all things together with 1 label? e.g. same buyer purchases 5 prints. 3 can ship together, 1 needs to go flat and 1 individually. Add godamn check boxes to the auctions so i can choose what ships together. not that tough and pretty sure it used to be that way. also stop taking credit for usps online pricing and calling it ebay shipping discount.

tldr version: ebay sucks grrrr

Ahhh, just look at how much money you have made because of eBay and for only a 12% vig. Worldwide marketplaces ain’t cheap or easy to run; personally I think they do a fantastic job overall.

when you're coworker sucks and you do your job well.

and then their drymount ups cause rules passed to affect their failings, but have more of an impact on you.

Being acquired by another org who thinks they know what your division does and can do it better and cheaper elsewhere.... not spending double the budget, still struggling because they don't listen...... watching the ship sink waiting and wondering, do I wait to see the package or bounce.... do enjoy that paid time off and severance though....
