a club for everything is the title of this post .... here's what got me thinking ....


....while at work minute ago, a coworker (("zhris")) was commenting on how bored he was and a guy near me (("dayson")) said, "hey, join the club"! I felt like asking "dayson" where do i sign up? Is there a fee? or can i find information about this club online?!?
does anyone know of such a club...? maybe there is a support group for people bored at work, or a confernce i could attend ... please let me know where to sign up.

While surfing Yahoo NEWS, i found this story ... it's all about yankee inginuity!!!

Look Who's Talking at the Drive-Through

2 hours, 41 minutes ago Oddly Enough – Reuters News Service

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - McDonald's Corp. wants to outsource your neighborhood drive-through. The world's largest fast-food chain said on Thursday it is looking into using remote call centers to take customer orders in an effort to improve service at its drive-throughs.

"If you're in L.A.... and you hear a person with a North Dakota accent taking your order, you'll know what we're up to," McDonald's Chief Executive Jim Skinner told analysts at the Bear Stearns Retail, Restaurants & Apparel Conference in New York. Call center professionals with "very strong communication skills" could help boost order accuracy and ultimately speed up the time it takes customers to get in and out of the drive-throughs, the company said.

.....here's my pick for musical endurance:



Youssou N'Dour
...
..... he's from Senegal originally, i think he lived in Paris for a bit. He's done songs with Peter Gabriel, Sting and Wyclef Jean. If you get a chance, google him, look in i-Tunes (or other legal/illegal music source) or simply goto your local record shop and find out more. I recommend a track called "How Come?"

thank you, KennyB

man, why are people such babies!!!
....at work, they have an automatic heating/cooling system that has several zones. towards the back of the office, the heat tends to fluctuate often, due to the fact that there are more vents. the thermostat is set constant, and has not changed since i started almost a year ago. people still complain about it being too cold .... or too hot .... depending upon when the system kicks in. if you've ever tried to heat a large area it is not something that takes 5 min. we have fairly high ceilings and it's one huge room w/ cubicles (typical office space). but people keep complaining. whaaaaah it's cold! whaaaaah!!!
IT MAKES ME WANT TO STEAL THEIR RED STAPLER!!!
