02/14 - The Lovely Tuesday!

My laptop hasn't been updated since last night when it was like 30 miles from me and I'm antsy. I tried to run work on one monitor and do a c-sat at the same time in the other and the computer shut itself off so quickly I thought the power might have went out. Poor Phillip is just not meant to be worked so hard woops. @ChrisTurk Don't tell me it's going to take another day for my laptop to go from Spartanburg to Simpsonville!

 

Valentine's day..
UGH

 

Those are lazy drivers sending out the confirmations after they do an entire truck instead after they do several deliveries on nearby streets. That's what UPS told me before after a missed shipment notice that hadn't registered in their system for another 2 hours.

 

This made me feel better about Valentine's Day...
"Somewhere out there, there's a fourth grader who got 29 more Valentines than you."

 

"The pictures show Chinese characters."

Why is this the latest 'in' thing for survey makers?

 

Why ugh?

It always depends who is delivering at my house, 2 of the delivery guys always pet the dogs and carry everything to the back door and say hi cause they know I'm usually home and we chat. One guy speeds past my mailbox, backs up, delivers earlier than USPS says, and waves at me when I look out the office window. The 4th guy though, what an ash hole! He has broken things, won't acknowledge I'm even there when I walk out the back door to get whatever package he has to the point he dropped a package at my feet once and just kept going. I see you motherforker, if you drop my laptop you might end up in the creek bro.

Question on this. I have Unanimous A.I. running in OW by requesterID but didn't get a notification. Any thoughts? Here's what OW looks like.

 

Caught the $10 AND $15 HITs, though they were dangerously close to expiring. Little bits of batchy stuff and I'm up to $37.

 

You didn't get a notification because the HIT has been up for a while. OW scans for things that have just posted.

 

Who is your favorite player/team.....
The man.. with the legs and he has two eyes (I think)... he's on the team with the blue shirts...
