Hey guys
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:16:24 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald Hay there! How's it going?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:16:45 UTC from web -
@knoxemerald Hey there. How're you doing?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:17:16 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark @abighuman @pinhooves Doing good Hope you're all doing well.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:19:34 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald Eerup, I'm doing alright. Pretty busy day too.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:20:08 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Oh? Today was another day off for me. It was pretty good. What did you get into today?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:23:04 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald Went out to a meeting where someone would help me in finding jobs. Had to do a lot of walking to and from. After that, I had to walk the dog because she never go one today.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:24:07 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Oh? what kinda job are you looking in to? I've been working almost five years in grocery. It feels like it's time for a change.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:25:33 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald Pretty much, I'd like to work in a grocery store too. Presumably Safeway (Or Vons I believe it's called). Either a Grocery Clerk or Service Clerk.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:27:16 UTC from web-
@pinhooves But if that doesn't work, retail would be nice in somewhere like Best Buy.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:27:40 UTC from web -
@pinhooves Good place to start. You can weasel in hours if need be. I'd like to work somewhere quiet if I could. Like a flower shop. Flower shops are quiet right?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:28:53 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald Yeah, they're pretty calm. I want to work at the Safeway that's pretty a 10 minute walk away. I've been shopping there since I moved to where I am. (14 years) The people there are so nice, and the store itself has a friendly feel to it.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:30:22 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Yeah, I just transferred stores. It sucked because we were the friendliest store. This new one is ok, but definitely not the same.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:32:59 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald If the one I'd like to work at doesn't go well, there's another one I can get to easily by transit.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:35:01 UTC from web-
@pinhooves Win win baby!

@knoxemerald They're depressing too. People mostly by flowers for funerals and apologies.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:32:02 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark But they're also for some birthdays and anniversaries, and other good things. D:
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:32:49 UTC from web-
@pinhooves @knoxemerald Y'know where I always imagine is a nice place to work? A bakery. Everyone is nice to bakers. You've got the smell of warm bread, you get to make cakes for people, and they're never super busy.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:36:14 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Oooh yes! That would be lovely. :3
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:36:41 UTC from web-
@pinhooves (I secretly want to quit my job and become an baker.)
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:37:14 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark ...Let's not go there just yet. :p
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:38:43 UTC from web-
@pinhooves @knoxemerald If either of you end up having to work in the food industry, my girlfriend used to work at a starbucks, and she says it's basically the top-tier of fast food jobs. Unlike Mcdonalds or whatever, the management actually treats you nice and isn't out to replace you with the cheapest possible immigrants.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:40:48 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark My sister's last job was Starbucks before she left to Europe. Funny thing is, she worked at a Starbucks there as her first job. :p
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:42:20 UTC from web-
@pinhooves left for Europe*
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:42:32 UTC from web-
@pinhooves @knoxemerald I'm reliably informed that unless you're a big fan of animal abuse, chain pet stores are absolutely horrible to work at.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:43:55 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark I love animals, especially dogs. A pet store wouldn't be somewhere I'd work at.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:44:41 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark I'd believe that. They have pets locked up specifically for breeding. It's not pretty. Where do you work? or do you work?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:44:58 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald I work in IT. I'm the network manager for a british insurance company. (I'm actually their sole IT guy, so I change titles whenever I feel like it. Since I played Deus Ex I quite like "Head of Security")
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:46:17 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Nice. Do you like it?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:48:29 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald Me and Rarity have a lot in common. When it's going well, I love it. When it isn't, I flip out. Think "Suited for Success" with computers instead of dresses and you'll basically have it.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:54:41 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Oh the whining...You don't whine like Rarity do you?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:55:27 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark Do you cry and make claims of living in exile?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:56:11 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald Not since I got on these pills.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:57:29 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark That's good. It probably wouldn't be as rarity's scene anyway.

@ceruleanspark My cousin confirms Starbucks is good; I confirm McD's sucks. :p
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:42:22 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark I have kind of wanted to work at a coffee shop as well. Weird because I absolutely hate coffee. Maybe a small cafe' would be better though.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:42:44 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald We have a really good local cafe here downtown called Java Jungle. They have great smoothies and italian sodas.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:43:58 UTC from web-
@ladestitute I think we have a few cafe's here. I'll have to go to the city one day and see what all they have to offer.

@ceruleanspark Well scratch that one.

@knoxemerald I also have a vendetta against interflora for ripping me off on a valentines gift, not delivering it, getting me into a fight with my girlfriend, then failing to acknowledge my complaints. So you might wanna take my advice with a pinch of salt.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:35:20 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Maybe I'll make my own flower shop. With blackjack and hookers. I'll make sure to get your flowers and stuff to you on time...only you though. Maybe someone else...if I like their face.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:37:15 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald They didn't rip me off a small amount either! It was like $150 worth of goddamn roses! cherriesers.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:38:00 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Your roses will be a mere fraction of that price as I grow them with my own god damn hands!

@knoxemerald I knew I had something on the topic! My mom's friend used to own a flower shop, it was usually pretty relaxed workwise, but the personal drama was soap opera grade. But, that was probably just the friends there. And hours were usually pretty easy and flexible, but when an order for a wedding came in it was overtime time.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:39:34 UTC from web-
@scribusvoorhees Pfft drama. I work at a grocery drama. It's an ocean of drama.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:40:31 UTC from web-
@knoxemerald I work at a grocery drama hahaha. That's a better name for it

@abighuman You better not!
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:33:19 UTC from web -
@abighuman I don't know what I would do without my big...human?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:35:46 UTC from web -
@abighuman Could you die knowing I never hated you? Wasn't that your goal?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:39:23 UTC from web -
@abighuman You an allicorn or somethin'?
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:42:03 UTC from web -
@abighuman "You forget my role in this little drama. I'm the leading man, you know what they say about the leading man? He never dies."
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:42:10 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Unless your Hamlet or Romeo.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:42:29 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark Unless he's Sean Bean. That man dies in everything. He's giving us a bad name.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:44:12 UTC from web-
@seanthesheep I am a huge fan of him, but yeah. He kind of does.
Thursday, 06-Oct-11 06:44:50 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Absolutely, he's a great actor, he just seems to be really great at acting death scenes. He would have _killed_ the role of Capt. Jack Harkness
