I remember watching videos of Bushs gubernatorial debates vs his president debates as proof of his mental decline and I thought w Bush was the closest we'd ever get to an authoritarian furher

They funded the government for three weeks, not for a year. It was a delaying action coupled with CHIP renewal. And my guess is that Schumer released the presidential aspirants to vote with their consciences.

That said, it's important to pressure the Dems to shut down the government if after McConnell breaks his promise on DACA. You should call Feinstein and Harris to thank them for their votes.

They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!
Problem is now when they shut it down again in a few weeks the narrative will completely blame it in the Dems and they will fold like a house of cards.

The first job I had in high school was a laborer for a framing crew. It was brutal lol. I made it through Summer, but when I worked over xmas break, it was a cold snap of like -20 degrees every day for 2 weeks. On my last day, I was humping 5gal buckets of cement to dump into the holes in a cement block foundation, and it was so cold that I didn't know it had seeped through my Carhartt bibs, so when I got home and got in the shower to warm up, it activated the lye that had soaked through my clothes, and gave me 3rd degree chemical burns on my calves.

I had a paper route when I was in 6th grade. It was miserable because I had to get up at like 5 AM to fold newspapers and then ride around delivering them so that one or two people could call and complain they didn't get their papers or something (usually meant it was under their car or I'd got the address wrong but ffs I was a kid). And then do it again in the evening.

But probably my worst job was working preload at UPS. I had to get up at two or three in the morning to go work from 4 or 4:30 till 8:30 or so, earning $10 an hour. Honestly we also got health benefits and it was a union job and that made it better, and also it was a workout, but needing to go to bed at like 6pm blows. People do not accommodate you by being quiet in the evening, and at the time I lived in a super lovely roommate situation and right outside my bedroom window was the basketball area of an elementary school, where kids would come play in the evening. Getting across town on public transit at 3 AM is also super lovely (I didn't have a car), and I was working a second part-time job and going to college at the time so my schedule was always hosed and then I tried to switch to a normal daytime schedule on the weekends so I could spend time with my girlfriend and that usually meant not sleeping properly sunday night.

I did that poo poo for a year and a half, and then I was on the UPS strike which lost me enough money I had to skip a semester of school, and all us part-timers got out of the strike was a 50c an hour raise, which I figured out would take me years to pay back what I'd lost in wages during the strike, so I finally quit.

I did get a lot of stories out of that job. The poo poo your packages go through at an aging, massively overcapacity UPS facility. :gibs:

I worked one summer doing maintenance at a hotel at my home town. Things I did:
-Tamp down the dumpster when it got full by climbing in it. Yeah, rotting food in the hot summer day is not how I want to spend my time.
-Had to clean up the property after a Phish concert was held nearby. Apparently these hippies don't give a poo poo about the environment.
-Cleaned the air conditioning units with this solvent that smelled like rotting lobster & literally caused me to stop breathing if I accidentally inhaled it. All this was done without any protective breathing masks.

Then there was the time post-college where I got a job being a news monitor doing 3rd shift from 10pm-6am. My job consisted of watching news broadcasts then writing a synopsis, mentioning any instances of a person, place, and/or company. This was then kept in a database where any person/company can cross-reference it to pull tape on any mention for their own use. Watching news is not a good thing for one's mental health, and combined with a poo poo sleep schedule I was near suicidal. One evening when doing a synopsis for Charlie Rose(?) they mentioned Who Wants to Marry a Multi-Millionaire? I described Darva Conger as a "stupid gold-digging whore." Got fired the next day.

I worked at a reclaimed food warehouse one summer. Name is as youd expect, we'd get returned food both perishable and non, and had to sort it out of trucks and into new packaging to be shipped to discount resellers/wholesalers. Sometimes you opened a box and it was just candy, sometimes it was broken soda cans, sometimes it was maggots ya just never knew. Oh, and you had a quota of 4000 items a day huzzah

I was a photo tech for drugstores through high school and college. Not only was it a bitch of a job that carried all the poo poo parts of being a cashier, but the only reason a customer would talk to you is if they hosed up their photos.

At least four arguments a shift. At least. It was always the god damned shutter speed too.

I'd constantly get written up for doing homework when the store was 100% empty, or the loving rear end in a top hat shift supervisor scheduling me during class (despite having a printout of my schedule before the terms ever started). I quit after they started harassing my then nightmare of a girlfriend after taking her number from my phone.

I'm very happy a cop buddy was around for that one.
