It's Monday August 8th

[I. Hustle]

and if you are reading this then you are alive. Squash all the beef, forget all the hate because today is another day to wake up and accomplish something with your life.
Recently I just got bumped up (not bopped up) in my job so this week is my last week at my current position. More than likely I am going to be taking on more responsibility so I won't be posting as much. I'm not sure if I will even have time at all really. So this week I will not fight or argue with anyone. Not because I have turned over a new leaf or am trying to make myself a better person but because I don't want them to get the last word if I can't get on for a while lol.
In all honesty, guys like TC and Ignoingnonkokt helped pass the tiem and I don't really hate them or harbor any ill will towards them. They (and not just those two) were a big help in getting me through my otherwise boring day here. I'm not calling a truce because that's gay, I am just saying that I am not going to talk shit.

Aside from any of that how was your weekend guys? Did you do anything kick ass like take a 2 hour napor climb a mountain? Did you hook up with that one chick from accounts receivable or finally beat skate or die? What happened?

That was lame bro. You need to store all that hatred instead of letting it out so that you have a heart attack later on.

Do you ever feel bad that you're getting promoted for sitting your fatass around and posting 2nd grade jokes on spurstalk all day while solid, hardworking Americans are desperate for jobs?

Or are you a quota/AA promotion

Be honest son

Do I feel bad? Not at all. I kick out more work and do more all around than anyone else here. You might not think so because you don't see it but that's how it is. In the eight years that I have been here I have gotten a raise at LEAST once a year and have been promoted 3 times. If it's a quota thing then so be it because for some reason I must be stuck on their rotation then.

Like I said I am not going to fight with you. I don't even know who the Ed Lover troll belongs to to even care.

C'mon son

Your company must be a muhfuckin joke. Do they hand out an award for most posts on a message board during work hours? Are you real proud that you're a worthless statistic they just keep around to add some color to the office?

People like you and your company are what's wrong with america, son

See, nigs like me get up, get out, and get something

Nigs like you get up, groan, and go to the snack machine.

Did you get denied a job or something? Why all the bitterness? If you are able to get in and get a job like mine then go for it. I have multiple times during the day where I have to wait for something on my computer to process and I can either stare at it and wait or get on here and post something.

I get your frustration though. If you need a job you could have just asked me bro. I can get you at least an interview and if you got what it takes you might get an offer. Then you can be like me. I don't complain about my job or hate it and if you saw all the people in here that look like me then you wouldn't be making the quota statements. I'd have to be white to stand out around here.

Nigga please

I understand you feel bad about being a quota, feel bad/self conscious about being world record setting unproductive, stealing money from your shit company, and making an endless stream of bad jokes here on ST. But I don't need your work history...Your post count says it all

Son, you are living the American dream!!! Keep on livin' it!! (just stop posting, for the good of humanity)

Oh, and you're fat

Nah a troll on here isn't going to ruin my day. I think it's funny when he calls me out for my posting when over half his posts are the exact same tired line. If I wasn't a lazy money stealing vending machine food eating non working fatass I would try to figure out who the troll belongs to. Since I am all of the above I'm going to leave it at that.
