Ok, I know I've mentioned before that I'm currently a foreman working for a commercial landscape maintenance company(might have the new job next week :-)).

Well one of our bigger contracts is that we do all the McDonald's in the region, and one of these such McDonald's was my second stop this morning, we had already finished all the work and were just blowing the property off, when I was blowing off a small strip between the order kiosk and the payment window during a break in vehicles which normally takes all about 5 seconds and I'm not exaggerating, I'm there about 2 seconds and the lady that was next in line pulls up on me and nearly hits me I jump out of the way and if I haven't she probably would have, I look to see why she was trying to pull forward like that and there was no where for her to go because someone else was still paying, I signal her that I just need one second to finish and as soon as I look down she near about runs me over!

I don't know wtf is wrong with people I seriously lost a little faith in the human race today

/Rant

You should have weed eatered* her front quarter panel.

* or is it "weed ate" or "weed eated"?

I chow down on a breakfast burrito every once in awhile. Everything else McD's makes me poo water 30 seconds after ingesting it.

Me and a coworker were walking around our business park. It is not in a great part of town...near 49/woodlawn....anyways we were walking, him in the grass and me along side the curb when a car coming towards us, speeds up, and swerves into the curb to make me jump out of the street. (there was plenty of room)

its weedeat.

I thought for a second about kicking her door(steel toe boots) but then I would have intentionally damaged a customer vehicle while working at maybe our second biggest customer contract property, nothing good would have come out of it, so I just settled with cussing her out followed by a phone all to my manager explaining why he may hear of one of his employees cussing someone out at a McDonald's.

ive been nearly hit twice before in the last 8 month, but both of the other cases were because I was in a bad spot and they couldn't see me, especially the second time, I think it scared the crap out of the guy when he realized how close he came to hitting me because he took a turn really fast and I was around the corner.

But this is the exception because she knew I was there and straight up tried to run me over

No offense Doc but when in the bloody fuging hell did landscapers decide it was ok to blow debris on your car with a high powered blower from 5 feet or less?

 

fuging up my paint job because you want to hurry up and blow the last leaf away.  that's bullshit.

i love spitting on peoples cars to get even--

 

they have to look at the wet (or dried) spit sulking there for the entire drive to their destination and then have to clean it off eventually or else be reminded everytime they get in their car of the deed that caused the loogie stain on their windshield or driver-side window

      Serious Thoughts Fellas What numbers would Bryce..

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.

      Mustard BBQ sauce only. Bessingers or Melvin's BBQ sauce.  However Bessingers is the best in the world, Melvin is 2nd.    I found this article    In fact, the New York Times Magazine described the sauce as “terrifically balancing the tangs of mustard and vinegar with a wood fire's charry flavor.” While helping his dad, Joseph “Big Joe” Bessinger, as a teenager in the kitchen of the family's first restaurants, Thomas learned the secret recipe for the gold sauce – ... https://www.bessingersbbq.com › t...
