So what exactly does "good" mean? Lets flesh out your bizarre neckbearding, I think everyone could use some amusement. Being able to run 600y in what time?
04-05-2018 , 04:11 AM
What is this, some kind of relay race? Da **** outta here 600 yards.
04-05-2018 , 04:27 AM
You were the one who said 600 yards. But you say a lot of things without any real coherent line of thought.

Anyway, seems like its obvious you were just derping along saying random stuff. You do you.

Yes, I said she can't run more than 600 yards. Thayer brought up 5 and 10ks. What does any of that have to do with the price of tea in China? Derp.

M,

After all those bans, your log surely did improve....

In summary, existing literature supports the use of cigarettes to enhance endurance performance through weight loss and increased serum hemoglobin levels and lung volumes. However, athletes continue to neglect smoking and pursue illegal and dangerous methods that have only minor and transient effects on the same physiologic variables. More research is needed to clearly delineate when and how cigarette smoking should be integrated into high-performance training programs. Despite substantial federal financial support for endurance athlete development, we are aware of no such research programs at present.

Greg,

Not sure if serious....

A 60-70 year old grandma running a 5k in 25 minutes easily qualifies as a good runner. I basically define a good runner as someone in the top 10% in his/her age gender group.

Holy ****, I might lose it today!!!!!
My partner forwarded me an email from 3/27 for a bunch of things that were due on 3/26 that need to be done and that I knew nothing about and said he just noticed I wasn't copied.
I responded asking my boss if we could please have a meeting to discuss this stuff and go over everything that needs to be done and said "I feel out of the loop on this". Her ***** ass responded to me "Me too". Wtf??? She was in all the goddamn meetings and copied on all of the emails, how in the **** is she out of the loop.
I'm calling Boss^2 today, just OMG.
04-05-2018 , 09:38 AM
oh so the guy who's top 10 in the world in a legit track discipline doesn't count?

my buddy who competed in half-marathons used to say "nothing like a cigarette after a 17 mile run". would a person who routinely placed in top 0.5-1% in long distance running qualify as a good runner?

LOL doing some serious goalpost shifting.

Mikhel05 and Land O Lakes were made for each other. Perhaps a mod could extract all the nonsense regarding smoking distance runners to another thread and contain them there.

OMG...it never ends

The Plant Manager came to me this morning asking for a report today.
I emailed my boss saying I would get it done and I need her to approve it ASAP.
She responded, "Oh, this was another email I forgot to forward. Sorry I'm failing you."

Every goddamn thing has to be rushed and done at the last minute without any planning just because she can't ****ing communicate what's being discussed in the managment meetings. She litteraly just has to forward emails when she gets them and 100% of things would get done on time.

Oh, and we just had the meeting for what's due at the end of the month and what we are supposed to be working late for yesterday. Turns out it's due the 19th.
Now we have a pile of **** that past due, needs to be done now, and 2months worth of work that has to be done in 2 weeks.
Just ****ing rediculous. Litteraly the only effort she has to make is checking her email and forwarding emails...that's it! Goddamn!

What pisses me off the worst is no one is making the assumption that the needed task aren't being passed along(because this is just insane) and just seeing our group as not getting things done on time.

it litteraly never ends
04-05-2018 , 11:22 AM
Every second
04-05-2018 , 11:32 AM
LOL also keeps saying "pack-a-day" and "carton-a-week" or whatever as if it's a binary thing where everyone either has never seen a cigarette in their life or chain smokes. A lot of people smoke like 4-5 cigs a day, and it wouldn't surprise me if the anecdotal smoking runners (and MLY) are among them.

Idk, ive never done a weight loss bet before. Im flexible

MLYLT,
Your consistent urge to go over your boss's head is something you should actively try to ignore.

Okay. I'm having to really control my impulses today.
She knows I'm pissed today and came to my office and was saying, "I didn't forward the information because I don't want to overwhelm you guys." What a crock of ****. Oh yeah, giving us needed information and dedlines is so overwhelming and letting people ask us for things we had no clue about that are past the deadlines is so much better than letting us schedule and organize our work.

I kept my mouth shut and just nodded my head....aaaah

25 min ain't getting you in the top 10% anywhere outside of Podunk Nebraska.

Depends where.

Don't conflate addressing a qualifier put forth by someone else as goalpost shifting.

Right. In terms of running and smoking, a pack a week person is next to meaningless. Pack+ per day is what I'd call a typical smoker - not dudes wearing tight pastel green capris casually puffing on a Virginia Slims Ultra Light at a club.
