^I don't like being around people that smoke either. I've never had anyone in my family with lung cancer, but I've experienced just about every other kind so lets just say I dislike just about everything that can even remotely increase your chances of getting cancer. And to some extent, I find...

That's what I've been saying for a long time. Make some money off of it and let law enforcement spend more time on people that are actually a threat. Not to mention, eliminate some of the "under-ground" ish that comes with selling illegal substances. Louky- I agree completely. And I wasn't...

ha, I actually thought that one was funny just because the frist time I sat there in shock that I was actually seeing it. And then the second time, once it had soaked in a I knew the "point" I still thought it was funny just because it's so stupid and overdone. Some of the first ones did a...

While this is a good point, and I do agree that the ads do go overboard in some areas, I think it would be interesting to get some actual percentage statistics on this. The same amount of people may die in auto accidents each day, but I'm willing to bet that there are a lot more people driving...

I also agree with ND. And Boost, I think that's an xcellent idea!! Unfortunately I have no car stuff here, but just let me know and I'd be more than willing to put in some money. I'm sorry to hear about your job and school, but you're right that starting late really shouldn't be too big of an...

Ha- like the guy at my office that yelled at me because apparently I was suppose to know that he had been sitting at his desk waiting for me to stop using the copier. Which, for the record, I was using to make copies of portions of his report that he hadn’t finished up early enough to send out...

haha, thanks! D34DC311- I know exactly what you're talking about! That's the type of thing most of the drawings were addressing- not having enough room for mechanical systems. I work at a similar firm- electrical, civil, plumbing, and mechanical engineers, but then we also have an architectural...

^hahaha... I'd actually have to agree. Ever since this one guy at my office straight up yelled at me for making copies I've decided to hate them all. Except for the nice ones of course.

ha, that's pretty funny!

Yes! But the actual border template was fine and everything, the printer just let it go a little too far before the automatic cut off feature came on... whatever it's called. And I understand that 3/16" can be a big error for some things. Even for a lot of the things we design having an error...

But there was nothing wrong with the drawing (scale was fine, it just had 3/32" of extra white on the top and bottom). And they're getting a completely new set next Wednesday I believe (they get new drawings once a week from us anyway). So it's just annoying. Not to mention the guy accidentally...

So I had an amusing experience at work today and figured I’d share (that and I’m bored). I’d say it’s on of the more pointless things I’ve been asked to do, and wanted to know what some things are that you’ve all had to do that are really just a waste of your time. Now I can be extremely anal...

Actually, it's N'SYNC, no insync... I'm sure that threw a couple people off. Anyhow, I just find it funny that he thought he was "keeping in a secret." I did have a friend that was COMPLETELY obsessed with him though, I wonder if she's at all disappointed.

That's what I do too. Like someone else said, I also use the most annoying ring on my phone. My family hates it. And then I usually put my phone on the other side of the room so in case I hit the snooze I actually have to get up and turn my phone off- much harder then just hitting snooze. But...

You sound like my roommate freshman year. She would sleep through anything... especially her alarm clock. And I would feel bad waking her up all the time, but I didn't just want to turn it off and have her sleep through it. I've heard that having something vibrate by your head can help wake you...

Glad to hear that things seem to be going as well as possible. And I'm with suprahero- I love mashed potatos. I hope they're making good ones for you there.

heh, I wasn't serious when I said it would make me a man...

I'm not saying that, the initial poster said that...

Luckily I've never owned one. Other wise I guess that would make me a man, which I definitely an not. Although... being a boy doesn't seem like it's all that much beter. I have worked on one before... as much as I was allowed to. Some people are just over protective of their cars...

Well I’ve been waiting to post in here trying to think of the right thing to say, but really, there is no “right” thing to say for something like this. Thankfully I’ve never had cancer, but I’ve seen many family members (all much older) go through it all. And it’s tough stuff, so I kind of...
