Dear LiveJournal,

Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

I guess it'd be more like a front/greeting clerk or something. I was wondering about that too when I recently bought my car, and there was a chick at the front desk who wasn't doing shit, I asked myself what her actual job description is. She was hot though.

:lol: no they have hot chicks for greeting people. i have been down there plenty of times where the cashiers are, i guess it's for people paying for their car that's getting serviced in the service center or fixed in the collision center. come to think of it, i have seen cashiers at the local Subaru dealership when i brought my car in for service

Wait, so it's a she. That changes it then. She wants you. She wants you to give her a different position that's 'service' oriented and wants you to ring her cash register repeatedly.

On the one Car Lot Rescue episode the dealership had like eight woman who were "hostesses/greeters" and only like two dudes who actually were salespeople or knew anything about cars.

Gee, I don't know why my account got banned when I used my friend's mobile broadband while at office later this day. I'm not a returning banned member. :crazyeyes:

The IP would've been banned, not your account, as the result of the actions of another poster that we did indeed intend to ban. Unfortunately that does happen from time to time with some ISPs.

Got some of the results from my 2nd state exam in law. It seriously seems as if I won't pass it. Called my father to tell him that I'm pretty much frustrated. His answer was: 'Sorry, I have no time as I have to prepare salad for tomorrows BBQ.'

Of course you're not invited. Just imagine the humiliation he would feel about his failure of a son when his guests ask about you, then imagine how you would feel when his guest ask about you, the failure, if you were there.

Welp, finished yet another semester of school, this time to add on a certification so I can actually have the job I was offered next year.

The older I get, the more of a pain in the ass school is. I got everything done early for once but man, I just couldn't have given less of a fuck by the end.

Didnt have much choice. I couldnt find any job, even a shitty one, so I had to find a way to get paid. My best skill that isnt sports is having patience with kids so I had to go in to teaching. Don't get me wrong, I love the job and I have no doubt I did the right thing, but I could've done this job without the three years of classes.

I can't wait. The last time I went, it was when Blake Griffin was out the entire season and every sports store glowed purple and yellow. I have a month in the states before I start my semester, so hopefully I'll be able to spend a bit of time in Orange County again.
