Sucks to be lumped into a group because of a few bad apples. Now you know how I feel being white...

I already am...I've just accepted that I'll just have to live a life of cruising around in my busted box Caprice that I paid 32x book for, that I can't work and demand to live off government funds, that when I get pulled over that the proper first thing to say is "I ain't do 'nutin" and that I must proclaim my heitage by claiming my city as the mecca for all people like me.

That's life...and I'm OK with this.

In my quest to have worked in every field in existence, I quit my job today after a lot of thinking over the last few weeks. My next endeavor is OTR trucking. You would think at a high end luxury dealership, a tech could make decent pay... not the case apparently. Let see if I can make this last a year. I'm a rambler baby! Gotta keep on ramblin'.

Hey, a fellow Leeds dweller. Yeah, I just started my last job at Tom Williams Lexus in June, and already I quit and am on to hopefully greener pastures.

Yeah, it's a risk on my part. From what I have read on forums (always the truth!) this school is pretty good about getting students in a job before they leave. May not be the best job, but it's a foot in the door and a start in the industry. I'm willing to take the risk though, if there is a chance I can find a job I finally can live with and not be miserable every day, and make enough money to finally get out of my dad's house. If it doesn't work out, it's a another life lesson learned.

True true. Sucks working a shitty job. As a former Audi tech I know how shitty dealer life can be. I'm taking a big risk getting out of the military. But I never wanted it to be a career, just experience.

I hope someone punts this **** off the front bumper of their car.

A soccer player kicked the opposing teams mascot off the field after it was struck with the ball and sustained minor injuries. It died from the injuries of the kick.


Animal cruelty makes me sick. It takes a real ******* classy human being to harm a defenseless animal.

I came to the shop today expecting to get into a fistfight, or at the very least a screaming match. Neither happened.
