  1. Interesting point about Sysco. I have them as an account. They have roughly 40M sq feet of warehouse space in the Us and to offset mainline (foodservice) losses they are distributing to grocery. There is a lot of spare food out there.
  2. Fucking dead on. I have been annoyed enough over the past two weeks that I actually cut the cord Friday. Fuck these guys.
  3. What kind of schools fit this description? State funded schools aren’t going away. I wager it’s small private schools like Southwestern? Perhaps a large handful of New England schools? What about schools like Baylor or SMU? RD has posted the financial situation of aggy but I’m sure the state will backstop then like a bankrupt airline.
  4. Fucking onboard, of all posters, trying to operate as the thread police has been one of the most entertaining aspects of this thread.
  5. I have had ex-mil work for me. They make good worker bees. However I agree, in general they do have a harder time in ambiguous work situations. In a sales environment I find that if I give them a mechanical process they are very successful. For junior ex-mil I usually have to map out their day by the hour but once that is done they shine. They listen and adjust very well and generally respond to constructive criticism better than the general millennial population.
  6. Wow. Didn’t even think of issues like this. That sucks. How did you know it was CV19 positive? Did they tell dispatch? How Are CV19 positive arrests handled?
  7. The social stigma issue is probably why this is spreading rapidly in more affluent areas. Poors don’t gaf.
  8. Stole this from the aggy thread because aggy.... errrr DFW “SEC” fans. As of yesterday college station has almost 70 cases and 4 deaths. Baton Rouge probably has 100000000 cases.
  9. Jesus Christ. I had to go look it up to make sure it’s real. Yep. It’s real. And yep. It’s still up.
  10. Other than the whole death and putting my family at risk thing, I kind of want to fly to see if I get the upgrade.
  11. Oh it was fun. especially on neverending lines of cocaine. that said, SOME of the people in there were reprehensible. cough miniballer cough
  12. you have known me for 25 years HS. When was I not bug fucking insane?
  13. super secret squirrel. But none of the events between the brothers happened there. Rather a chat application. There were some nasty people that used to frequent that part of tos - present company included when i was much much less sober.
  14. I was present when this happened. Icon outed himself. FB confirmed and added context a few days later. As usual, Icon is lying. But its not like FB helped.
  15. That plus being foreced to go back in time to an era where this site (and tos) was the worst of the internet. I include myself in that sweeping generalization.
  16. Now for a 1% update: ACC was open....until today. A member of the kitchen staff has Covid-19 (and is unfortunately in the hospital) so they closed the club. The most absurd part of the situation is that up until a few days agon they allowed you to use all facilities except the gym and pool if you signed a waiver.
  17. Very few. But Texas pay rates for RNs are atrocious. TBH this was inevitable. Texas is going to lose Nurses in the short term. If they come back is anyone’s guess.
  18. Wife was told today that St. Davids lost 15 nurses just in the past few days - all going to NY because they are paying so much $$ for RNs. Hazard bonus is through the roof.
  19. Some jackasses we know went to Port A with about 4 families. They took plenty of pictures with bottles of Corona. All posted to social media of course. Now those posts are no where to be found and they post updates with hashtags like #quarantinelife Fuck them. I’ll add that one of said jackasses runs the primary construction company for a well known wing restaurant.
  20. My wife has not been able to taste or smell for about a week. It was concerning at first but springtime allergies create similar symptoms. Be vigilant but don’t let it keep you up at night.
  21. Last night my daughter said her generation is going to be called Generation Zoom aka “Zoomers” because they are all using that tool for school etc.
