Because I’m bored here is a little chat I had with the assistant general manager of the hotel. I like to point out there is not a actual general manager. So this makes her the assistant manager of nothing.

Turk: hey!
Turk: you going to give me the 25th off?
Turk: hello?
Turk: don’t ignore me
Manager of Nothing: Yes I am giving you the 25th off
Turk: thank you Boss
Manager of Nothing: no problem
Turk: how a copy of the daily sheet so I’m not so bored off my ass
Turk: how about
Manager of Nothing: I am working on it
Turk: is what I meant
Turk: ok
Turk: I have a copy of it at home Boss
Turk: I’ll sell it to you
Manager of Nothing: bring it in and make a copy on the fax machine
Turk: bah
Manager of Nothing: come on do me a favor
Turk: the fax machine is not a copy machine
Turk: ok since you got me the 25th off
Turk: I’ll see if I can find it
Manager of Nothing: thank you
Turk: anytime
Manager of Nothing: gotta go, have a meeting to go to
Turk: well I got to get back to work
Turk: bye Boss
Manager of Nothing: have a great day, I will probably see your mom today
Turk: ok
Turk: tell hi
Turk: tell her hi
Manager of Nothing: ok
Manager of Nothing: see ya later
Turk: yeah

Welcome to the internet, your famous now.

Since the X2 movie just came out and I mentioned the original comic it was based on a few posts ago. So if you dig the X-Men movies and want to read the source material I have a few picks for you.

Four books (shown below) called Essential X-Men Volumes 1-4. These hefty books collect issues 94-179 of the original X-Men comics. These comics are the good stuff. And they are more or less the inspiration for these X-Men movies.

You can nab these suckers at you local comic shop or if you have to you can get them at Amazon.com. Essential X-Men Volume 1, Essential X-Men Volume 2, Essential X-Men Volume 3, and Essential X-Men Volume 4.

Working at the hotel has become a lot funner since the new owners bought the place. What do I mean? I just found out about some new company perks and I wanted to tell the internet all about them. Of course there are some restrictions on who can use these perks, but that is a minor detail.

The first perk is calling the hotel when your shitfaced repeatedly. I know this doesn’t sound like much of a perk. Which is cool because I’ve always wanted to call my place of work after I’m pissed drunk just to fuck with whoever is working. Of course I’ve always been afraid that this kind of thing would get me fired, but I don’t have to worry about that any more. And you can call more than once, preferably you would call repeatedly.

The second perk is use of the company van to cart around you and all of your drunk co-workers or buddies. This is a nice one. I guess the issues of insurance and just the fact of driving drunk have been worked out. Which is cool because this is a perk I will use. I don’t know how they got by the insurance and driving drunk thing, but what the hell you only live once. And you don’t even have to be on the clock to take advantage of this one.

Now you may ask how I know that these perks are in effect? Well I’m glad you asked. I have it from a source close to the owner that this kind of thing is allowed. And here I was thinking that they didn’t have any clue on how bad morale was at the hotel. Well you proved me wrong with these moral boosting new company perks.

I really don’t like Diaryland sites. It just something about the service they offer I don’t like. Maybe its because all of the sites look the same.

But I have found one Diaryland site that I do like. Gawain The Blind is a website that deserves to be in your bookmarks/favorites. This guy writes in a way that I envy. Here is a sample from his current entry:

My happy place is a place where virgins prance about naked, it rains Pete’s Wicked Ale, and not only does PMS not exist, but it has been replaced with MPF, which stands for “pre-menstrual fun” and which involves sexy undergarments being worn on one’s head. In my happy place, Carrot top was never born, Phil Hartman never married, and Belushi never overdosed.

I would like to think that me and Gawain are like minded. I just can’t say enough good things about the guy.

If you get the chance and you have money to burn also stop by his store for all kinds of cool merchandise.

On the 8th of this month I wrote about the new Company Perks at the hotel. I wanted to make a clarification on the subject of that post.

I wasn’t criticizing anyone in particular for going out and having some fun. I was just pointing out the fact how some people can break or bend these supposed rules that are in place at the hotel.

I’m all for having fun and as it was pointed out I have been known to get extremely shitfaced. I personally just won’t be involved with three of the people from that night. As I’ve explained elsewhere on this site when I’m off the clock I’m on my time. Now on the clock that’s different, I’m on their time. But I will not hang out with these people on my free time.

I don’t like these three individuals in question. I’ll be nice and fake a certain level of respect when I’m on the clock. But I will not, and can not tolerate these people if it’s on my time. Respect with me has to be earned.

In the real world (as opposed to the fantasy world one is in when they are punched in) I don’t give a fuck who you are. I don’t give a fuck what your job title is. I don’t give a fuck who it is you know.

And that’s all I got to say about that. I hope this cleared up any questions one may have.

A few things to cover this post. But first let me say hello to all the managers that are viewing my site. Raise your hands so I can get a count. Wow that’s a lot of you guys. Welcome and enjoy your visit. Moving along to the issues at hand.

First, last post when I said “I don’t like these three individuals in question” perhaps that was me being to harsh. It is less a case of I don’t like these people as it is more of a case of I don’t know these people. The rest of what I said still applies.

Second, I heard via the grapevine that some of the people mentioned in the Company Perks story got a yelling out courtesy of the owner. All I can say is sorry to hear that. Of course if your going to disregard what rules the hotel has in effect then it’s your own fault. Again this is another reason why I won’t be associating with certain people on my time off.

Third, again the grapevine passed along that someone was asking what I do. Of course this is a question that could have been asked about a lots of things. But I wanted to take the time to answer it. I don’t do anything and I do everything.

If it’s job related I’m a little irritated. Job wise I do what I can. Of course when I run out of daily sheets there isn’t much I can do. If anyone has a problem with me I would hope they would ask me. Or get whomever it is that is my boss to have a talk with me. Or just fire me. But don’t ask this kind of shit to someone other than me.

Fourth, I also heard someone was asking about this website. Check out this post for info on how I go about deciding how and what I write about. This post here covers some things like Constitutional Rights and the First Amendment. It also explains the ideas of Slander and Libel. I’ve done my research, so make sure you do yours.

Boy I hope that clears up some of these questions about me and this website.

I saw this over at Gawain’s. It’s a quiz and it finds out what level of hell you belong on. My results are below.

The Dante’s Inferno Test has banished you to the Fifth Level of Hell!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:

Level	Score
Purgatory (Repenting Believers)	Very Low
Level 1 – Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers)	Low
Level 2 (Lustful)	High
Level 3 (Gluttonous)	Very High
Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious)	Moderate
Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy)	Very High
Level 6 – The City of Dis (Heretics)	Very High
Level 7 (Violent)	Moderate
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers)	High
Level 9 – Cocytus (Treacherous)	Low

Take the Dante’s Inferno Hell Test

The fifth level of hell isn’t so bad. Is it?
