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

      Peeking at the roster in 2026

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I’m keeping an eye on what the Hawks do with Boye Mafe. There’s a few young talented players that needs to be retained and one of their defensive starters might not fit within the budget. My guess is probably Riq Woolen is voted off the island but Mafe could be potentially too. His stats aren’t eye popping, but in McDonald’s defense, his role is to leverage for the DL to clean up. Mafe’s QB pressure rate is top notch and in a different scheme, he could clean up.    Just something to watch this weekend when SEA is in town.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
