TSCLT 12.0: The pantheon hates a pussy 2.0

Spiritual life is not a search for meaning but a release from it.

Wat just wrote another grumblegram to the contractor who is buggering our job by understaffing it. There were cc's to all parties with a remote interest in it. The boss was quite complimentary and admires Wat's way with words and how verbally to crush the guy's nuts to paste and make him ask for whipped cream.

The decision to move on from him has been made for the next phase. Thanks be to Allah!!!

Home. Grazing in.


Gonna get stuck Out West. Becoming not-a-fan of that county's gummint. They've been helpful, but one thing which could be done by common sense can't be because no record of what's there. Looks like a chunk of change will be a'wanderin' out the door to replace something which, in my way of thinking, doesn't need to be replaced.


So it goes.

It was a good day. I'm going to grab a cup of tea, a book and turn off the electronics so I don't screw it up.
Good night everyone

 

[VinnyVeritas]

You, sir, are very cruel and heartless man. Or, if you prefer, a mean and nasty bastard. Yet we remain friendly, so we can correctly wonder what that says about me . . . .

...

We have our moments.

It's still pretty much fall here. Whatever man hath wrought in his industrious endeavors, we are reaping the benefit(s) here.

 

[VinnyVeritas]

Electronics are the bane of mankind.

Never mind that that is how I'm communicating with you.

Pay no attention to me, I'm just a man behind the (shower) curtain...

You were a touch cross with me. Once. Maybe 6-7 years ago. About what, I cannot recall. But that's just my saintly nature. You're subject to get cranky again sometime in the next 10-15 years.

Happy Thursday. Some sleep last night, two cats, one squawking when I got up - feed me, damn you - so I made coffee first because human. May have to work this weekend. May have mentioned that. Last day of heat like this. Sever (Lit Jeenyus edit) weather may be headed this way.

 

[VinnyVeritas]

I try to rub everybody wrong.

Especially here.

Gadfly out.

 

[VinnyVeritas]

Coffee always comes first.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

It truly is the will of Allah . . . .

 

[VinnyVeritas]

Somebody, or something, is willing me to a second cup.

I might sort canned goods today. to make sure that I've been keeping things properly rotated.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Gotta get ready to head off to work . . . .

I see the Kansas City Native American Tribal Leaders have a cake walk for an opener.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

The Crows don't look too tough, either.


On site. I had two deliveries today. Different companies. They arrived all but simultaneously. There are two drywall crews working. One has 5 guys and the other has 2. I'm adding to yesterday's grumblegram about getting the entire floor completely staffed. I always put "time is of the essence" in for good measure. I also like to describe a lack of production as "deleterious."


I wish that I could say, "you cunts need to get your girliebits into fucking overdrive, like yesterfuckingday!!!"

 

[Inflation999]

Made a spaghetti lunch for the whole crew today and toasted some garlic bread to go with it. It was a hit and should have been mandatory back in 2020 when we needed to social distance, I had fresh garlic and went a bit heavy.

[Wat_Tyler]

Just got off the phone with the PM of the drywall contractors. They have assured me yet again that my work will be complete by the end of the day, Monday, 11 September. I didn't call her a liar, but I did reiterate that they are up against the wall and that they have no one but themselves to blame.


This is kind of reminding me of my old job.


:/

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Home. Got a piece of salmon cooking.


I wrote another email with the "suggested" schedule of events on it. It's "suggested" just like it's suggested that you pull the ripcord on your parachute sometime after leaping out of the plane. I went over the same schedule with the foreman. He told me that he has two more guys coming tomorrow. This young fellow I want to believe. His jefe? Not so much. But I have to ride this one out, and I'm not afraid to go to the whip.

 

[thør]

I'm laughing because the bastards who want everything done right now are the biggest holdups on the project.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Generally. This one bitched about our being slow to get our last inspection.


Of his work.


Which he was slow to complete.


Go figure.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Friday!!! Slept kinda poorly. The cats slept fine. It's quiet here. Cats are fed and coffee is up. Today is the first cooler day, albeit obly slightly. Low 90s is cooler than high 90s. And I'm sure that it'll be an exciting day of seeing how much completed work the wallboard gang(s) get(s) done.


After coffee, of course.

 

[VinnyVeritas]

I see the Kansas City Native American Tribal Leaders have a cake walk for an opener.

"Catch the damned ball!"

 

[VinnyVeritas]

Does this mean that we're never going to see any syndicated reruns of that 70s Show?


All of the raped persons who would be traumatized having to watch a convicted rapist?
