February 2008 TacomaWorld Giveaway

should have finished the tread before my last post i guess. thats exactlyl what i got. The hitch Dring works great. definately a good choice and essential if you are gonna spend time off road

 

yeah but didnt you "co-win" with someone that was in the Alliance?

i have a job. actually my job is the only reason i spend so much time on TW. i never use the internet when i'm not at work, so if i were at home i wouldnt be online right now.

out of curiosity, what did you say

you sound like me. people have been telling me to smile more my whole life. i dont get it, i smile and laugh when something is funny but if i'm not being amused i just have a normal face. i could be compeltely content and happy but look like i'm pissed (at least thats what i'm told). i'm very light hearted and happy usually but i look mean. I've been told by multiple girls that i look very un-approachable and angry/scary. When my head is shaved i look like a very angry skin head. Looks matter alot when job looking though. you need to be clean cut, shaved and not peirced, then after you get a job you can get your look back. i try not to go in with a shaved head to an interview, i let my hair grow back a little. i look less threatening when you can see my receding hairline I look like a felon otherwise

Anyway, good luck Tiger, i hope things work out for you soon. if not, move down south, its better down here anyway

 

Maybe.... but winning is winning.

She claimed I said "you know you want me" or some such thing... I have no recollection of saying anything like that. And there were apparently 2 other women around at the time (that I didn't notice) that didn't hear me say anything like that either.

Thanks. And yeah, I'm not one of those naturally happy/bubbly/perky (read: ANNOYING) people so normally I have a straight face unless I'm laughing over a joke. Or just got a new toy.

A few people may have mentioned I look unapproachable as well in the past. No one has mentioned that recently, but it still sticks in my mind. People seem afraid to say much to me until they get to know me.

Regardless, the client I was at had multiple family members working there so it was like one big family. As such, people acted accordingly. Off-color jokes, lots of sarcasm, etc. Towards me as well (which I don't mind. I love a good joke, and appreciate sarcasm), but apparently I can not reciprocate. That's the part that pisses me off. We go back n forth for a year, then BAM! HR gets called in, I'm fired, and a family of 5 struggles to survive. (I was denied unemployment at first for nearly 2 months.) Al over 1 woman's word.

Guess the moral of the story is be VERY careful about who you trust at work.

 

or better yet, keep women out of the workplace

or even better than that, lets go back to the good ole days when you could tell a woman she did a good job by slapping her butt or cupping a boob

 

Hell, I'd settle being able to talk to one without stopping and thinking about what to say for 5 minutes to make sure it can't be misinterpreted as "sexual" and filed with HR.

 

Got my stuff yesterday. The hitch d-ring is rated to 10,000lbs and the strap is a 3" by 30' rated at 17,000lbs with a break strength of 30,000lbs.

 

Looks like that'll get the job done. Gratz!

 

So, what happened to the March prize? are we done with the monthy prizes?

 

Steaks?

 

Tacoark?!?!

 

come on Bob! you gotta tell us what you got cookin!

 

yeah........im wondering too!!!! and im hoping bob gets some tw stickers in the near future......my 04 seems kinda naked without one!!

 

What kinda stickers are they? Only place I could put one is on the vinyl/plastic back window of my cap, tailgate or bumper. Think it would work there? I want to be able to take it off when it fades, cracks, etc. Not sure how it would stick to the vinyl on my cap either since it gets rolled up when I open it.
