Even the rice it was sitting on is making my eyes water...

The Mango Cafe in Palo Alto served mild, jerked, or extra jerked. They would put on latex gloves before bringing out an extra jerked plate. I couldn't handle the extra jerked, too much pain.

I am trying to think of a way to convince Mike Rowe that brushing my hair before bed is a dirty job. I would like him to come here and do it shirtless.

Mike Rowe and I are good buddies, and I know for a fact that he is allergic to hair. I'll be glad to do this favor for him. Cause we're good buddies and stuff.

"In a heartier take on eggs on toast, swap bread for heftier taters for a more substantial breakfast -- with the crunch and creamy interior of fresh potato pancakes topped with the protein-packed runny egg yolk, you may never want to return to a bread-and-butter base."

I wonder if it actually costs $530 or if the carriers are agreeing with a early termination fee of $350 for all 'advanced devices'. Following Verizon's new change to their early termination fee.

OH NO!!! Now I will have to the Charlie Brown Christmas head bob. Anytime I watch the dance sequence I do the bob. Hmm, that reminds me I should see if the Scrubs take of Charlie Brown Christmas is still up on Youtube..

I read the uncut edition when it was issued in the early 90s and loved it
- RAPatton
This is my favorite edition - it was lost when I shipped boxes of my books two moves ago. I used to own 3 different versions of this book (which is my favorite tome of all time), and now I have none.

The paper's a little nicer than Moleskine, but the notebooks themselves don't seem quite as durable.
- ha3rvey (Ho)^3
I should clarify: my comment about their durability was about the wire-bound ones. They don't make a casebound one that fits in my pants pockets.

I once worked a temp job at a help desk for a company where we had to wear official blazers with the company logo. Their employees in cubicles could only have a maximum of 3 personal items in view in the cubicles. One of the worst jobs EVAR.

I would rather be required to have 15 pieces of flair than have to work in a sanitized cubbie. (My office has toys.) *whistles toy-r-us theme*

I wonder if I could have brought in my Nerf gatling gun as ONE personal item.

Weirdly, when I worked direct desktop support, I would have killed for a uniform. Most women's business attire is REALLY not suited to crawling under desks, and at least 50% of women's dress pants don't have pockets.

@Jennifer So true! I was always very firm with my mgmt that if I was to be moving servers and the like, I was not going to come in wearing slacks, a nice shirt, and heels. I never got any shit for it.
- EricaJoy
Interesting thought. If they view the other people in the company as customers of IT, then it is no different from Geeks on Call, etc. Also, most IT people will do just about anything for a shirt with a logo on it, so if that's all it is they probably wouldn't complain much. It is a hell of a lot better than having to wear a tie while crawling under people's desks. Disclaimer: I am an IT person and former customer support worker.

Mind you, I have been known to trade Google schwag with coworkers because i love my company. When I worked at Home Depot? No. You couldn't pay me to wear a Home Depot shirt (which is funny since I have a ridiculous amount of THD schwag). Same thing with Scientific Games.

My rule back in the day: If I move servers, I'm wearing Levis...get over it :)
