Flintstones/Jetsons Musou. Fred, Wilma, Barney, Betty, Baby Pebbles & Bam Bam, George, Jane, Rosie, Dino, Astro, vs. Slate, Spacely, Cogswell, and The Great Gazoo. Chaff are the Water Buffalos, Definitely Not Copies of the Joe & Mac cavemen, and a bunch of robitts.

Special thanks to @firefallvaruna.bsky.social and the historic discovery of the baking soda volcano for saving my morning!

I accept my mission.

"I made an overnight withdrawal request for a thousandillion dollars in the beginning of Dectovember why did you lie and say it would arrive yestermorrow I'll never use you again!"

I am LEFT to PONDER the EVERYTHING.

"Quick question?" 'Yeah?' "Can you screen-share and demonstrate every type of call we're expected to get?" 'Not every one, we don't have time for all that. Can you provide an example?' "*the thing we demonstrated not even 50 minutes ago*"

10 minutes until we go on phones. No mock calls, nor review. Half the class isn't set up for the live environment. But it's "our fault" for needing so much troubleshooting. Totes worth cutting two weeks off the schedule to rush fresh meat to at-risk clients. This is fine. Customer Service banzai.

I leave an impression. Especially on clams.

This motherfucker has officially asked THE SAME QUESTION, 7 TIMES, OVER A FRIDAY AND THE FOLLOWING MONDAY.

I would do the most tasteful of lewd mouth things if it'd get me a call center system interface with UX worth a damn.

Today in training, as converted to MMO speak. "So class, we'll get ready to queue up, and then we'll start doing our first dungeon pulls---Chad, you had a question?" 'Yeah, so, I'm trying to create my character, and the name Cloud Strife is taken. How do I...how do I fix that?'

The feel when you miss a perfect score because evaluators are actually illiterate and don't remember "the Golden Rule" right.

Cool. 3/3 for call center jobs that expect you to come in early but not clock in early. The first two got hit with class-action lawsuits for penny-pinching on overtime. I'm sure this will go entirely different.

30 minutes in. "All tests are open note." 3 hours in. "Quick question, can I use my notes on tests?"

Minute 15 of day 1 of Zoom meeting training. Obvious dudebro with a dudebro slogan shirt he just rolled out of bed with. Minute 25. We just learned together how unmuting works.

Alternative title: "Tell me your customer service boss shoved a script in your hand and a gun to your head without telling me they shoved a script in your hand and a gun to your head."

"Sniff you should spread out and try more games. Here's this mobile on---"

Conan O'Brien's interview on Hot Ones is a glimmer of hope.. It is proof that the Spark of Madness, the holy primordial flame from which spirits of comedic genius like Robin Williams sprung forth, still lives. His answer to Sean's last question hit me on a profound level, like a lightning strike.

Watch as the crab Rangoon gather at the watering hole. One tests the sweet and sour sauce before allowing the others to drink

I was inspired.

Now and forever.

"I can't see people happening!" - Driving with @omgfloofy.bsky.social, 2023

Inspired by and dedicated to one of my eternal muses, @omgfloofy.bsky.social.

Trimming down my can-always-boot-this-up list, little by little.

Watching a TAS playlist channel on Twitch, the following thought train occurred in my head:

When did Netflix start doing the "You idled on the preview of this for 5 seconds, therefore you must want suggestions based off of this in your algorithms. Starting right now," thing? Because that is a heinous amount of off they can now fuck.

Using a fly swatter as a hacksaw provides a primal satisfaction.

CHIKARA WAAAAA~, DRIIIVE HOOOOOME. Dream: I made an anime movie where Zechs was a server on a cruise ship trying to get Hiro and Relena alone together.

No, UberEats. You've missed me paying $40+ for $15 of food. You've missed the stranglehold your ilk had with the pandemic in turbo-full swing. You've missed using sales and coupons to shift the percentage of fees going to you instead of the restaurant or deliverer. Get a clue and/or fuck very off.
