Darth_Rob Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Well I stopped by my job to get my schedule for the week and they only put me down for 2 days!!! If this keeps up I'm gonna have to move on to greener pastures. The main man wasn't there today so I'll have to emphasise my discontent with his scheduling abilities on Thursday when I go back...

Defender_16 Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 Lately at work we've found out something interesting. In the US A&W has a hotline of sorts for people to call about any complaints they have with their food orders and such. Only through some kind of mistake the number seems to direct calls to our restaurant. It make it somewhat odd since the US and Canadian A&W chains are owned by diffrient companies. On days while I was working so far we've gotten two calls from some place in Pensilvania and another from... Iowa I think. Started with an "I" cant remember for sure which State it was. Caller: Hi I'd like to complain about my order. It was cold as soon as I went to eat it. Us: And you're where sir? Caller: Southern Pensilvania. Us: ....Uh ...That's a six hour drive from here or more...

Darth_Rob Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 My job is making me po'd. I had 2 days last week, and just one day this week. I complained to the manager yesterday, and he's like, "uhhh, the schedule got erased and the other manager tried to re-do it, but messed up". If I dont get my 5 days back next week, they shall feel my wrath!!!!! Your feeble skills are no match for the power of the Dark Side!

Darth_Rob Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 @Tofu- That's old news you have already mentioned. You're boring me by repeating yourself. @Turtle- I feel your pain. I used to work at Walmart in the cash office before I went back to school up here. But the others used to tell me stories that were totally disgusting.

Jahled Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Well, today at work I was asked by a member of marketing to scan some slides of some Slow Loris's. High profile image sale apparently. No problemo! I is Jahled! Another day at work for conservation! Any specifications for the image? I obviously asked. 'In scale, and including a human finger,' was marketing department's reply. Amazingly, that was compatible with what I unearthed in our collection, of a very newly born Slow Loris clinging on to one of our keeper's hands. Like ace! Bit of of very high-res scanning later and an hour or two cleaning up in Photoshop on account of how 'scratchy' the slides were, I forwarded five multi-meg jpg's to marketing for sale. 'who's the client btw?' I threw in with the email. 'National Geographic Magazine.' Was the answer. like woooooooooo! I've got a subscription for the next eleven months as well, so I guess I stand a good chance of seeing my work in print.. /all woo'ed out! http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif

I've got a subscription for the next eleven months as well, so I guess I stand a good chance of seeing my work in print.. /all woo'ed out! Do we get a "sneak peak" of said pic J? Any idea what issue it will be in? That way I know when my NG issue arrives, to tear into it (not literally of course ) Oh, and will you get "credit" for said pic? Congrats!! Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?
Jahled Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 I've got access to my work 'inbox' at home via Outlook Web Access but not apparently my 'sent box' inwhich the said images were forwarded. I saved them all at 'maximum' obviously given the client though, so some pretty hefty file sizes to host in order to show you you. I'll host something on Monday slightly compressed when back in the office.. http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif
Eagle Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 That´s very good news, Jahled. Congrats! Who cares at all?!
DarthTofu Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 I'll have to snag a copy of National Geographic to see your pictures, Jahled! Congradulations- now every nature magazine will be fighting over your work and 1337ness! 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away

Jahled Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 Cute little fella isn't he! We've got thousands of slides taken over the years here at the Zoological Society of London. Time has attacked most, so to generate money from image sales (all plowed back into world conservation, we are a non-profit organization) they generally land on my desk for some shopery with Photoshop since my manager saw the light and got CS2 on my advice. 'It will make us money,' I believe I said. And now an image sale to National Geographic. I'll be running the show next.. http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif
