Burgess Meredith. He was in at least two other episodes that I can think of, off the top of my head. He also played the Penguin in the Adam West Batman series and Ammon in the original Clash of the Titans, one of the best fantasy films made.

There were quite a few reoccurring actors in The Twilight Zone. William Shatner was in two. Burgess Meredith was in 4 episodes plus the movie.

honestly you just have to learn how to not take it personally and just let it roll off you, some people are just like this and you have to learn to make peace


i don't agree with this, people should be called out if they're actively attempting to ruin the atmosphere at work and drag people down. bouncing around it just allows the behavior to continue and makes the workplace more miserable for everyone. it's important to not take it personally sure, i don't think the act of being passive aggressive is so much a personal affront to me more so than it is a toxic behavior, bringing it into a professional setting is a mistake.

True but it's not your place to call them out. Their boss should handle it. If they don't then that's on them sadly. If the employee is that openly passive aggressive then everyone in the office already knows how they are. More often than not, you telling them they are being an asshole when they already know they are being one will only look bad on you.

Yeah but I don't put a huge amount of effort into it. State my name, the position I'm applying for, and 3-5 sentences regarding my overall experience, current job title, and experience specifically relating to the job I'm apply. Then a few cordial closing statements.

Most of it is copy and paste with a few tweaks.

TopicI started charging my friends for IT work
BlazinBlue88
03/16/18 9:30:42 AM

When I was in college for IT, I'd fix computers for free.

Once I got an IT job, I started charging because I was already working with them all day at it was. Everyone would get 1 free fix then charging after that. My mom would try and hand off all of her friends computers to me and expect the work to be free. Ridiculous.

Once I hit about 4 years into my career, I stopped fixing them all together. Just not worth my time anymore.

It was all normal business with the two places I used. The delivery guy had a Google doc with product and where you wanted to meet. Super nice guy.

The shop I mentioned was in an office complex above a strip mall. The area was a bit sketchy but their office was about as relaxed as a vape shop. Of course they were good at following the law to a tee so they had no reason to be worried.

I've also heard silly stuff like guys selling plain white t-shirts on the street as a front. Those are the sketchy guys that get caught.

Delivery guy just meets you wherever and gives you 1/2 gift for $125 on the street.

Then another place is like a legit shop where you show your ID and you can buy different variety of stickers and gifts.

Right after my 22nd birthday. I made sure I had lived at home for a year after getting my first career job. That way I had money saved. I moved into a large 2 bed 2 bath farmhouse on the other side of town. No roommates. I loved it. Lived there for nearly 3 years until I got married.


Did you get into shenanigans when you lived alone?

Of course. Had people over quite often on Friday night.

Depends on the field. IT is a very broad term. Helpdesk, Sysadmin, Networking, Database, Development, etc.

I remember you mentioning your arm sleep issue a couple weeks back. It might be some muscle/nerve misalignment causing a pinch. Go to a massage therapist and have them look into it. They can fix that for you.

Make sure they refer to themselves as a massage therapist. This means they are medically licensed and certified.

I've found them in a couple of my hotel rooms. These aren't just crappy hotels either.

Protip: always pull the sheets off the bed and inspect the mattress when you first arrive in your room. Look for bedbugs or small blood spots from them. Tell the front desk if you find evidence. Not only will they move you to another room but generally give you a discount on your stay.

One place gave us full access to the little snack/wine bar area beside the front desk. I left the next morning with 5 bottles of wine in my duffle bag.
