GM's thread about nothing (28 Viewers)

[UniAlias]

Got a little bored at the last minute and loaded back up my old Bodog/Bovada account to place a bunch of stupid prop wagers. Not GPJ amount of money on the game but a decent amount for me. Hoping it works out.

Was planning to go out to a party but thinking I'm just going to stay home by myself and get hammered. Slap it high?

I'm about to try to drain the fuel from my flooded engine by repeatedly trying to turn it over and letting the gas flow out of the exhaust pipe. If you hear about somebody that blows himself up in a car in the Chicago area, and I don't post after you hear about that, you know what happened.

Good luck. We're all counting on you.

BTW: Did the guys at O'Reilly's laugh when you told them you let it run for 10 hours?

Interestingly enough, no. Apparently I'm not the first one they've heard of doing that.

Abe, is this the job that's not challenging enough? Sounds like you have plenty of challenges. And I'm not even including math in that assessment.

Spoiler

It's not the challenge of it, its the fact that I'm stuck in the mud so often. I was hired to turbo-charge the sales efforts. I have done that, but the enthusiasm of ownership to increase sales has not been matched by a capacity to handle those sales. For example, I booked a $10k hardware order in October and told the customer they would have the hardware in 4-6 weeks per standard lead time. They are getting the hardware tomorrow because the owner "forgot" to order it for two months despite my repeated requesting (and then begging) for it to get done. When we sign on new contract customers, there is no playbook for how to onboard them so the process is a disaster and usually gets close to costing us the contract. Afterwards I hear, "we'll put together a plan so we do better next time!" but if never changes.

Here's the thing: I'd be 100% cool with these issues as solving problems as they come up is part of working for a small business so long as I was paid for the pain. But my pay is heavily based on commissions and when I spend 5-10 business days a month NOT selling because our guys literally can't do the work, it means that I am missing out on a chance to provide for my family. When our inability to execute costs us customers, it costs me money. I literally work an average of 3-4 hours a day because if I do any more, the weight of new customers and new jobs will cripple our infrastructure. I'm not talking about MOP-level Rainmaking either, just simple B2B sales.

sucks. is there another firm out there with a better rep that sells the same product?

I'm on Denver ML and Denver -2.5. Bet on the OVER 139.5 seconds for the Opera Singer. Bet on Tails. Need 3 more prop bets. Anybody? Wagering thread is too....noisy for me these days.

Malcolm Smith Under tackles is my biggest prop bet of the day. I'm expecting him to barely play with the return of KJ Wright and the fact Seattle should be in nickel just about the entire game.

how many units we talking here?

 

[T Bell]

I am either going to be really happy or really disappointed tonight based on a bunch of other grown men I don't know playing a game in tight pants.

It moved the chains :firstdown:

My dad suddenly decided to set up ten - cent squares for six people. Whaddya gonna do, he's my dad.

well, it's spread out over several bets

maybe 5 or so total.

2u on Trevathan -2.5 vs M.Smith (RB)

2u on M.Smith U5.5 tackles (RB)

1u on M.Smith U4.5 tackles (Bovada)

hope it's right but I have to believe Wright plays over him in the nickel package and he's had 2 full weeks to rest up.

I'm on a lot of tackle unders at SB but they only let me bet $10 each. Their lines all seem to be set too high.

be sure to use a match so you can see up the tail pipe

Pulling for 2 Denver figgies and Seattle to score a try.

Sports.... YEAH!!!

 

[bostonfred]

my pants are tight right now and I'm ready to disappoint you if you don't want to wait.

 

[bentley]

Fred - need a dream analysis. I had three dreams about our pr girl last night and she got naked in each of them. What could this possibly mean?

 

[kevzilla]

I need to have bentley's dreams.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Getting a bad feeling about Denver. It started when I saw Otis say he was heavily on Denver.

Woz on Seattle

####!

I wasn't aware SLB knew Phillip Seymour Hoffman or Terry Bradshaw's father.

Tim getting pounded in the Dylan Farrow thread.

I had to stop reading. tim, whom I generally like, just being horrible along with a few others. T Bell made a couple of great posts, which I thought should be the last I read in there.

On a different topic, I guess I'm getting into Breaking Bad a bit more. Started Season 2 about 8 p.m. last night and just finished it.

Season 1 And 2 are foreplay. Seriously.

The pr girl represents your need to have relations in public. The fact that she got naked and you didn't means that you have a teeny peeny. The fact that you had three separate dreams about this means that you probably fired off three shots in one night, which means your ball bag must be huge below your little peepee. And now I know that my own dream about louis armstrong playing the kazoo was a metaphor for your missized genitals.

Mata just left. I think I'm still alive.

Parting words:

Her: "I'm sorry I couldn't cook for you"

Me: "It's all good"

Her: "Next time, I'll fry up some soft crabs while sucking your ####"

Me: gibberish

While the above conversation is actually, actually true........I think I'm in trouble - I'm falling hard for her (I think she's doing the same for me). I did not see this coming so fast.

 

[krista4]

That's what she said!

 

[UniAlias]

She wasn't wearing gloves.
She didn't miss any words though, right?

 

[Captain Quinoa]

Her: "Next time, I'll fry up some soft crabs while sucking your ####"

I think this is literally the greatest sentence a woman can utter to a man.

I still don't love it by any means, but at least I'm more interested to the point where I'm eager to see what happens in the next episode.

So if I had the square which said that "Mata will give UH crabs" is it still Bingo for me?

Never thought I'd be so happy with so many 5s

Agreed. Both of us being from southern Maryland, this is akin to saying "I will cherish you forever".

She said she knows in advance

Went down to Nashville with FWB and a couple of her friends and stayed with a couple they know that live there. It was one of the most epic nights I have had in a long time. Some highlights include...

- drinking really good bourbon (George T Stagg) before heading to a concert (Jake Bugg)

- getting a hot chick's number right in front of FWB and all her friends... she didn't like that one too much

- getting choked out by a senior citizen

- having extremely dirty, loud drunken sex that everyone else in the house apparently heard in great detail

- one of the girls in the group waking up wearing a shirt as pants

- my ride back to Cincy losing her cell phone, credit card and keys

- finding her cell phone (thanks find my iphone) and realizing it was in the cab we took home last night... which was parked at the cabbie's house in the middle of a Somalian ghetto. and having to go knocking door to door to try to find the cabbie because he wasn't answering calls from the taxi company. he never did come out, just unlocked the car from behind one of the random doors

 

[bentley]

uh. Still not sure I would want to be involved in fellatio with a frying pan around.
