YOU KNOW WHAT'S BULLSHIT?!

Temperature. Think about how much it controls your life!

I hate temperature and I think they should do away with it. Along with distance, what a pain in the ass. Two things we really don't need and should be eliminated. Whoever invented this shit should be fired!

You know what really grinds my gears!


I as a project coordinator for a field service company, make less than an employee at In-n-out.

Kinda really pissed at the moment.

I think it's time to ask for a raise.

Here's my morning story... Commute to downtown Houston, traffic backs up from a wreck, and Waze suggests another route. So, all is going well, until I make a right turn on a street that I never go down and bam! Fucking damaged curb. I got this on my dash cam along with a string of cursing. When I get to work and inspect the damage to the wheel, it is evident that I will need another repair to my RPF1. The road conditions in Houston suck ass and this isn't the first time concrete chunks have damaged my wheels. When I check on Bing Street View and my dash cam, there is a man hole cover with concrete surround that is exposed and protruding into the street and sticks up about a height of a curb. Or what used to be a curb and sidewalk surround. In the street view it is so clearly visible in the day time. But, when it was dark, you can't see a damn thing. Also on the street view, you can see multiple tire marks and scrapes. So, I sent the pictures to the local news along with a rant for the city. We'll see if they post it and if I get any response from the city. I'm not counting on anything...
