This is a random post about nothing. Keep it moving 27.

I cant keep up with the beefs. I just feel like Im stepping on toes no matter what I do. I didn't know yall had beef. I still thought everyone was under the same label.

I tried twitter, its very fun and addictive but right now I need to be talking to real human beings or Im going to lose it for real. I think I am going to try and be a pro golfer or an oil painter. Music has brought nothing but stress.

I used to work at a pizza place picking up the phone and making peoples food. Behind the counter there were 4 phones, 2 belonged to the main pizzeria which was advertised on the smallish building itself, the two others were pizza places with different names and different flyers. Every place would sell the exact same size/toppings pizza's at different prices. It was especially great when people came to pick up a pizza from one of the lines that weren't advertised on the building. They always ended up pretty confused.
In the most extreme case pricing would range (for the same pizza/size) between 7 and 12 euro.

Was the main pizzeria generally the cheapest or most expensive?

Most expensive, the others were fixed price. You could get any pizza at the cheaper places for 7 euro's while the more expensive could easily charge 12 euro's for a fully loaded pizza and 8 euro for a margarita or something. If you were running the phone, your line for picking up was 'Good day/afternoon/whatever pizzeria', sometimes you'd use the wrong name but no one really ever cared.

I think the actual price is like 9 bucks, thats why I dont say ****.

To the woman who may or may not beeen attracted to me. I am barely holding on to my mental health. I just lost a tooth to a frozen hershey bar and have no plans on getting it fixed. Im not in mentally in a place to be taking the initiative. I thought in the age of feminism, chicks were going to be asking me out left and right. **** just dont work like that I guess.

I decided I'm quitting my job in a few months to go drive over the road again. I don't know why I never checked before but apparently I'm making about $20k less per year than I should be with my experience. This is exciting news.

According to all the ads I hear when I listen to satellite radio truckers are in demand and you can pretty much write your own ticket. They even let you bring your dog with you in the cab.

Also, I just learned about networking in another thread so I'm going to play around with it and try to find a connection to an ice road trucking job.

So he turns to Tinder, gets a couple matches here and there, sends awkward messages and gets 0 dates. Then he matches with a 5. Slightly overweight, not cute, but not ugly. But she's really ambitious and driven, dabbles in like 3 different fields, well educated. My buddy on the other hand, has done nothing but deliver beer for a local distributor for 8 years. They go on a date, somehow hit it off, and are engaged a year later.

It is seriously the most wtf thing of all time. Nobody who has met my friend can understand it all.

I guess the moral of the story is keep plugging away, you never know when you might outkick your coverage by about 50 yards.
