Just gonna note that I don't know that user, so if the one I invited comes, you'll have to deal with two new people :D

Oh. That explains things. I thought he was with you... :D.

Still, gonna keep an open mind and see what he comes up with after the feedback I gave him.

I have just posted.

The new char sheet does not seem very ST related at all.

Noted, I'll feedback to him after he replies to my latest PM.
 
I use a school laptop for a lot of stuff and I've been constantly taking care of the cord, keeping it laid flat when using it, loosely coiling and hanging it when not in use, and now that charging cord doesn't work. You get in trouble at my school for not having a usable laptop during some classes, but I think since the cord's broken I can just go down to the tech support and they'll get me a new cord no biggie. I go in, cord in hand, saying that it isn't charging properly, the guy at the line audibly scoffs at me, and says "did you plug it in"

I'm unsure whether to be pissed or amused at this point, so I just say yes. He then proceeds to do the process to write me up for not properly charging my laptop, to which I interrupt with "but I did plug it in, it's just not charging"

"I can't take that, you're probably lying. if it's broken, come back with the cord tomorrow" he says, not looking at the clearly visible cord I'm holding directly in front of his face.

"I have the cord here." this middle-aged community college student sighs and rips the cord out of my hand, proceeding to mutter to himself while he's looking for a place to plug it in.

The laptop cords have a little white light that goes on when it's plugged in, so when it turns on he rips it out of the wall by the cord and then says "it works"

"Well I think it's the part that goes into the laptop itself that's not working, because it doesn't charge."

This man sighs and begins muttering again because I'm clearly ruining his day of watching Star Trek and playing Counterstrike (not an exaggeration), plugs it into the wall again and then into the laptop. Nothing happens. He starts fucking slamming on the power button, and then throws the thing on the counter. "It's broken. You need to hand in 200 dollars to book rental by the end of the year."

"Excuse me, what?"

"200 dollars. You broke it, you buy it."

"But it's just the cord"

I came back ninety minutes later when that guy was gone and one of the students was running it and the guy just says "Cord broken? One sec." He reaches down, grabs a brand new cord, hands it to me, and then asks "do you need me to charge your laptop for you? come pick it up before next class."

I overheard from some of the teachers complaining that the guy in the shop from earlier gets paid 30,000$ a semester, or roughly 60,000 a year, more than any teacher in the building

why do indiana not school good?
 
Man, that guy gets paid more than me and I'm supposed to be the businessman (professional tutor heh) here...

He needs to be committed to an insane asylum.
 
Since I live in the Czech Republic, I don't know what a decent income looks like. Minimal wage here is abour 400 dollars a month :DDD

We don't even have a minimum wage here. Government doesn't think one is needed, not that anyone here knows where the line is between the poor and lower middle class is - the government doesn't define one either.

Anyway, Epiphany Epiphany , how's the post coming along?
 
Yeah, that's why I'll always post here whenever a post is expected to let you guys know that a post is coming despite...
 
Expect a post in 24 hours. I must say though, I expected things to escalate but not that quickly. I must have underestimated how crazy the crew is :)
 
I did want to wait but what better cause for action would I ever get than an attack on Sisko...
 
Another 9 hours and my post should be up... Due to work. It's half done and sitting in my writing box.
