The Mind Of OverlordTomala

Looks like we might be moving this Spring

For the last couple years water has been seeping through the windows downstairs whenever it rains. We thought it had to do with how the windows were sealed or maybe the water was just coming through the baseboard upon the wall. But it turns out the entire left side of the house is rotting away.

I’m dreading moving but, what can you do?

Work itself was quiet tonight. However things still got pretty interesting. To give you an idea of how bad the storm was, part of our building got flooded. It wasn’t anything too horrible but we did have to close off the entire area. 3 guys tried to push the water out but it kept coming back in as it was entirely level.

I believe it mostly has something to do with the repaving of the driveway. They did a shitty job of it. Now there’s lots of little pools for water to collect in, that and the trenches don’t work properly either. Oh! Also the roof upstairs is leaking. Fabulous.

This is just ridiculous.

Granted, I work in retail. And I hate seeing people buy shit just to use it for one weekend. But this takes it a little too far, especially for legitimate returns.

“Your personal information is entered into a huge database and like a credit score, they tabulate how many returns you do and if you go over the limit, you are denied returns,” he said. “The worst part is that they won’t just deny returns to Home Depot, but to any retailer that participates in The Retail Equation.”

I don’t have to worry at least. I shop online. I’m fucking afraid of Black Fridays.
