They also asked me for the recipes (including precise amounts of each ingredient) for like 10 drinks. Dude, I worked in a dive bar. I have never made a Mai Tai in my life! And Old Fashions? No one drinks those!
3 dashes of bitters 1 orange slice 1 lemon wedge 1 cherry 1 sugar cube 2-1/2 oz Whiskey bam! (my wife bought a mixing book for christmas. i want to use it to get a nice weekend gig at a bar.) but it must be like a fancy bar that you're going to. one that people come in suits and ties. the bars around here ask, "can you visually tell the difference between a whiskey, a vodka, a tequila, etc." and the answer is "yes, it's on the label"
i had to have my hieght, weight, sex, stance, drug test, etc. for my job resume. lololol…
i put 3-5x a week. cause that's what it was 4 years ago.
Yeah, but correct me if I'm wrong- ya have to be kinda in shape for your job, eh?
pffff, i'm in the chair force. i'm lucky they give me an hour let alone anytime during work, to go to the gym.but they still require us to be exceptionally fit, and skinny regardless of race, sex, age, weight, hieght. the only way to max out points during PT test, is to have a 32 inch waist.
also, they did an actual person to person investigation of my background…but granted i'm "in ur guvermints lernin topsekretz"

Stance? Isn't "upright" enough?
When I applied for the UK job, since UK job came with UK health care, I had to put down a bunch of personal details… and not only my weight, but whether I was losing or gaining. >:[ Oh okay, gaining please!
AAAHHHHHHHHJUST HEARD THE NEW FUCKIN MEGADETH SONG,HEADCRUSHER!!!!shit i cant sit still, i really fuckin cant! it'll be comming out on their new cd, ENDGAME in september and baby,it's gonna fuckin be MINE. lay yer eardrums on this:
i guess i shoulda used "foot position and how it affects the way i stand/run/march"
such as pronation and flat footedness (which is where i learned that i was mildly flat footed, and where i also learned you could be disqualified from military service for being flat footed.)
don't get me wrong, the air force does have physical standards, but it's real easy to slip thru the cracks…(even when you're huge, and trust me, there's a ton of those guys out there) there are also certain elements, that have a more strict Physical standards, but most of them are combat jobs, or fighter pilots.
I applied for a job day before yesterday and the (quite extensive) application requested my age, height, and weight.
Uh, hello? That's fairly illegal, last I checked. I mean, I know bars prefer to hire young, skinny, attractive women. Duh. But at least wait until the interview stage to discriminate, for cryin' out loud. :mad:
i know whatcha mean man. applications can be fucking REDICULOUS.
It ain't even like I thought they'd have a problem with my weight- all the other girls that worked there were about my size. But for f*ck's sake- that's just wrong.

well good luck this it man, and if ya dont get the job, screw workin for those douchebags anyways,though i know shit's to tight around here to be saying that, so i hope yer situation pans out well for ya, whichever way it goes.
n hell, i'm a pretty nice size too but like,dont some dudes GET OFF on big chicks? maby the owner's a perv.
and not only my weight, but whether I was losing or gaining. >:[
That form is specifically for Americans! ;)
Turns out I didn't have swine flu, unless it's a two day virus. I can't believe how man rotten colds I get since I became Captain Schoolrun - every 20 schoolruns means 2 days of noseruns. :(

as unfortunate as that is, that actually sounded pretty cute.haha!
The bananas are for tight smooth lines, the NY & Rusto skinnies and fats are for filling and dirty lines and the round fat caps are good for fades and large fill areas that are bigger than the NY caps will do quickly. I'd suggest their combo pack #3 and a few good sized chunks of cardboard for a beginner.

I've been working on sketches since December for this mural I was contacted to do at the farmer's market here. They've been talking to me since February like I'm the only person they're interested in having run the project. And guess what happens today? I look in the arts section of the paper to see a article on another artist that quotes him as saying he's looking to be doing some mural work for the market. Now, it doesn't say if that means I'm competing with him or if he's supposed to be painting some of the other walls there, but it kind of pisses me off that I wasn't informed of who else might have been given the project to work on. Granted, I have no contract with them yet, but it would have been nice to know if there was someone else so we could coordinate our stuff and make it look good if we're working together, or so I knew that this project wasn't guaranteed so I could have made a decision on whether or not I wanted to even bother doing the sketches.
I know it was my screw up to even do sketches without a contract, but it kind of annoys me that I have to find out who else is working on this thing from the local paper. It also annoys me that this means that if my concept work is chosen, someone else will likely get the majority of the credit around town just because the papers ran their name first.

Eh, best to cut the emo shiz and fight for it. Call them up or go over there and find out the exact situation. Contact the other artist too if you can. Get it all straightened out and get that contract. This isn't some girl you're sweet on, this is an art project. Get it sorted ASAP.
I always thought I had accepted the fact that I'm going to die someday, but last night I woke up and actually comprehended it and that scared the shit out of me like it hasn't since I was 6. This ever happen to anybody else?
Went out with an old buddy I hadn't seen since the hurricane, and his new girlfriend. She was really cool- any chick with purple hair, a British accent, and a love of pro wrestling is down with me. If we can teach her to like football, I swear she might be the perfect woman. They bought me food, too! First real food I'd had in 2 days. Scarfed that veggie burger down like there was no tomorrow. Heh. Hyena style, ya might say.
The ol' ball and chain oughta be here later today, which is good for my finances and other, uh, things… >:)
"Hippie Van" Said: Tell your butt to stop staring at me!
Detaching your butt from your body to make room for a burger king crown lends it a measure of grotesque fast food hunting independence. I wouldn't like to meet that butt on a dark night. D:
and other, uh, things…
Ah yes, those romantic walks in the park…
Stuff: I drew a couple of stories for a little fanzine, just for the love of it and now it turns out that fanzine could get national distribution in the major UK high street chain. That's still small potatoes of course and it probably won't happen, but it makes you think: throw a pebble into the stream and you never know where the ripples will end up. You might even kill a fish.:)
Edit: Wait - I drew that stuff for free: This really sucks! :(
Sometimes I'm so lazy about making comics I wonder if it would be better if I worked with a writer, but then I remember I can write better than 90% of the people on this site who ask for an artist. Then I wonder if I should just write since my comic art's only average, but then I remember nobody needs a writer right now.

*Sigh* Back to work.
In a few hours…
Haha. I feel the same way. I'd love to eventually start a comic where I just wrote and let someone else draw the damn thing. But I don't trust anyone to do it as well as I could- well, not for free at least. ;)
Also: I keep forgetting to take my meds, and then wonder why all the sudden I'm flipping out or depressed or inexplicably checking every 30 seconds to see if my wallet is still frickin' chained and locked to my belt. Idiot.
