Would King Diamond take time off for Grandma?

9/28/11: Would King Diamond take time off for Grandma?

It turns out that Jamaicans do not understand English as well as Filipinos do. I don't like picking on those who do not speak our language, but when you are getting paid to speak it, comprehend it.

Now if I want to walk that stereotype line, the language barrier isn't the issue, it's the relaxed culture. You would hope the Yanks who are reinventing the training program for my lame-duck position would be partaking, but they know that would prevent them from bitching at us because we cannot repair their fuck ups.

They got to go out of their way to treat us better. It is damn near intolerable. We are so understaffed, if I was management, I would have demanded better proof that I need to get out of work to see my dying grandma than a text message. Even the dumbest cell phones have camera phones. If a boss demanded visual evidence, and you provided it to them, they should probably feel so shitty that they will give you a couple of extra bereavement days off.

Overtime, Super Bowl Champions, and Crappy Web Sites: If I needed a reason to drink or hire an attorney

I'd like to save the final third of a handle of Stoli in my freezer, but today was one of those days. Actually, it's been couple of weeks, but I digress. If I wasn't a stubborn prick, I'd probably be drinking till I cleaned out my sinuses.

Never have I missed an hour of work because of my drinking. For my coworker who brings up, what about that Sunday a year ago, I swear that was a sinus attack, or it was something I ate (giggidy). It was more likely God being that funny asshole to make sure I couldn't keep that glow after my first one night stand. No good lay goes unpunished. If that isn't the gospel truth, what is?

And I guess it goes for good deeds to. I feel I was bullied into a 1:00 pm to 1:30 am shift tomorrow because someone does not have the friends or family to drive them to work. Actually, that should be an ego boost. I at least have enough family so this would not happen. Still, if I don't do this, the job will only get worse. It's just corporate bullshit.

My job is getting phased out (my employment is not at risk), so no one will be hired to handle the insane work load. But no exceptions will be made to terminating employees. Because of this, someone who doesn't have eight hours of earned time, despite they do have five, the company (HGS) feels it's grounds for being shit canned.

Because someone on a third shift cannot come in for an entire shift on a weekend morning (saving the company at least $30 in wages), the powers that be think it would be better to hurt their employees who they abuse enough by firing someone who cannot come in for one night.

And they would do it. They released someone who they hired, and knew suffered from MS because he could not overcome it in a timely manner. Some say there are too many lawyers, but if you have one, no one will fuck with you. That is the only possible way some brainless bitch (I just don't want to accuse her of being a sociopath) who cannot even be 30 years old can claim carpal tunnel and back issues, and collect workers comp for over a year.

Law, a profession that must be regulated by the government. If you put a reasonable cap on what they can make, everyone will have the same chance to become the next Casey Anthony, and there is noway that we would have to deal with the next generations of Kardashians.

Awakening of the Web Auteur: The effects of Trent Reznor and David Lynch

I should probably also give credit to Patricia Arquette's attempt to be a pin up girl for messing with my head. "Lost Highway" was a mess of a flick. It leaves me wondering if Patricia's performance lead to the mess that is her brother Alexis had become.

Not trying to dis on the trans-gendered. There are just so few of them with a filmography. Chaz Bono was once just placed in Mom and Dad's stuff. Alexis makes you wonder if she realized her true self, or just needed attention because she was a lesser actor than her brother David.

I guess the point of this blog is that I have ideas I'd like to express, and I want to see what an audience thinks. That sums up the style of "film making" that is David Lynch. A lot of sweet (in the freaking context) concepts along with a lot of shitty ones. Throw them up to the wall, and they should all stick (candy and feces joke, clever right?). If he only knew that a certain degree of cohesion is needed, and he would have a lot more classics dependent upon actors (or Trent Reznor) delivering overly indulgent performances.
