I think it's 80% of your normal before tax pay

It's 1 year split any way you want it

I don't like kids but it is tempting...

This is true - I will be taking half that time to get good playing time with the baby once all the problem stuff is over.

I am constantly amazed by the crap welfare state & working rights Americans put up with.

Dude, America is number 1!



My roommates toilet flooded his bathroom, which flooded mine, and the hallway... The carpet is hella wet and nasty. BUT only in the hallway. So that is good. But the carpet is fucked up... No lie... However, we are gona shop vac the shit out of it, and get it dry. So it should be good.

Also, *cough cough* to sick to go into work... heheheheheh I just wish it wasn't cuz his toilet flooded.

Also I wish my dumbass hadn't added my bosses on facebook... I'm a fucking moron... (NOT because I would talk shit about them on there. Cuz I don't need/want them to know. So I complain way to much here...) Just so they don't know why I called it... Its a real reason... But the less they know the better...

It's 'cause taxes are bad, m'kay? We don't want to have to actually *pay* for things like government aid and crap like that. It's un-American.


I'm both fascinated and dreadful about what'll happen this year with the hurricane season, which is predicted to be more active than usual. It'll be interesting to see what happens if the Tea-Party budget cuts result in less funding for disaster relief.

Tell me about it.  I had to take my paternity time completely unpaid.  All 3 days of it. 

With the state of things right now, corporate America knows they have people over a barrel and they are lucky to have a job.  All the more reason for them to overwork, abuse, and cut benefit packages down to complete shit.  USA USA USA

As the days go on, I'm feeling more and more claustrophobic in this wretched state. I want out.

Australia only recently introduced compulsory paid parental leave.

My own organisation has better parental leave benefits though.

aaaaarrrghh... It's been quiet for awhile, but my back is acting up something FIERCE today.  Excruciating this morning.

[Stariki]

It is 6.30 a.m. and I have yet to sleep! I tried... but after two hours of wakefulness I got up... I hate this! I'm buggered but my mind and body will not cooperate! hopefully I will crash this evening and get some catch up!

September feels like a lifetime away.

And somebody tell me that I should purchase study materials from Amazon to help me get the fuck out of my job before I end up collapsing someone's windpipe instead of a motherfucking wireless adapter for my Xbox. The latter will offer instant gratification while the former will help me get more monies for more instant gratification... or something.

Wow. Drunk rambling.

My good friend's mom had surgery, which was a minor one. Anyhoo she had a heart attack (I think, my friend said the doctors weren't to sure about that. He said that a nurse was in the room when it happened. She was talking to the RN and everything was cool, then her eyes rolled up and she went unresponsive...) and so they keep her here in town for a little while then moved her to a bigger hospitable. (give or take an hour away) they did a cat scan and it showed her brain had zero activity, and she had a thing that more or less said she didn't want that quality of life... He said she passed away about 3ish hours ago... Fucking god damn...   

Also gona have to let management know so I can go to the funeral...

[rokken like dokken]

Man, that's shit, dude. 

[Aaron]

Ya, I have known him and his family since I was in the 4th grade. We did baseball together. And we have been friends ever since... So I knew his mom pretty well. I guess what gets me thought is that she went from being fine to brain dead so fast... I mean fucking christ... She went into the surgery and was gona be out in a day or 3. To brain dead... Fucking christ. Its a shitty deal no matter how you look at it... Ugh.

[r00]
