strategy 4 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I don't think people want to hear it's because of money. Then they think you'll leave them for more money elsewhere. But I don't think that matters if he likes you. Networking, right Dawson?What happened to Dawson? Wasn't he starting a new job or something?I didn't get into it in the email, but it's not completely about the money. the position is shit on by everyone in the organization, you know I hate it, you have another position you need to create, and you still don't commit to moving me.as far as it being about money, why do we lie about these things? it's one big market, why wouldn't I go with the highest bidder (within reason)?my second sentence reminded me of something. the girl that has near-violent hatred for me started yelling at me for no reason during a shift a few saturdays ago. there was another teller in the room, and she has a huge mouth, so now it's common knowledge that this other girl is a crazy whore. no doubt that it reached our supervisor. I guess we'll call that a moral victory? Link to post Share on other sites
DJ Vu 176 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Huzzah!I don't know why we lie about money. Evolution probably.Oh, that reminds me...hey speedz, the corgi, somebody messed up there, right?Come on!Edit:Aww. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
strategy 4 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I could see being concerned about whether someone's a team player. which I mean, at least at my current job, you have to be there for a year to get profit sharing, and it's then tiered based on years of service or something. there's at least a little hypocrisy in using the 'team player' argument when squeezing my salary means more money for you.sorry, I know no one really cares, but it seems like it might be useful to have thought about this before going into a salary negotiation for pretty much anyone.

Napa_Don 688 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Corgi's are the overwhelmingly favorite dog of over-bearing horse show moms who are almost always obese and make you wonder if they personally have ever been able to actually ride a horse and are now living vicariously through their daughters because they were never able physically able to ride a horse. They are: the worst. Link to post Share on other sites

speedz99 145 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Oh, that reminds me...hey speedz, the corgi, somebody messed up there, right?Actually, no. I hate breeds that have been completely screwed up, but corgis are exactly the way they were envisioned. They're badass herding dogs that are so low to the ground that they can easily avoid getting kicked. They're also pretty smart, good family dogs when trained properly, and generally healthy unless their idiot owners allow them to get fat and acquire back problems. Dogs like english bulldogs and pugs, on the other hand...sorry, I know no one really caresAre you kidding me?

I'm going to high five myself. Hey Ron, congrats on the poop!Quack, you still runnin'?I have 2 races coming up that would piss off Dawson if he is/was still living in Chicago in March and May.

Does your bank sell annuities, etc? Move to platform, get licensed, get going. I just have been doing it coming up on 14 years and I'm over it. Hate where it's gone to, just hardcore sales and the raping of poor idiots. We now do western union, are a check cashing store and do payday loans. Effing ghetto bankit's clever.

Effing ghetto bankmy bank doesn't do all of that except through one investments guy, who straight up told me his annual pay, and it's a fucking joke (sub-50) for the time commitment (4 years to train under him, when he retires). I don't mind talking to random people and could probably function as a loan officer. I don't know if you've noticed this about me, but I am articulate enough to make common folk think I'm a smart person. suckersnone of this is an optimal fit for me, of course. I'm a problem-solver, not a back-slapper. sales is for the birds. Link to post Share on other sites
The Ocho 970 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 You guys need to go to Sam's Club and buy a bulk box of baby wipes. Those things are incredible. Two wipes with the TP, and finishing work with the wet wipes. It's awesome.Did you just figure this out? Link to post Share on other sites
