I worked at Target when I was a junior in high school. Good times.
People wanted to murder me when I had to offer them a target credit card. The looks they gave me still haunt me. People would give me 100 coupons and say pick out the ones that work. The store opened early when one of the twilight books came out, that was a bad day.
Alas, it all came to an end when they tried forcing me to work black Friday. Yea, it’s retail and black Friday is pretty much a must work day. But I made it clear when I got hired that I had basketball practice that day and couldn’t work. It was either skip practice, which was unacceptable, or skip work, which society judges as unacceptable. I skipped work and never returned.
I have to imagine it differs from profession to profession. I’ve seen my accounting friends that work big4 parlay a happy hour into a company wide blackout.
I just don’t get the hate for jerseys at sporting events. Where whatever the hell you want. You’re already there paying a day’s salary for food and drink, you’ve earned the right to wear a god damn jersey.
However, I’ll consider you a tool if you’re at a baseball game wearing khakis and a dress shirt. We get it, you’re trying hard.
Astoria and Bayside both have their perks, but generally transportation blows in Queens. I have some buddies that live in Astoria and there’s some brunch spots and beer gardens that are great but I’m not making a habit of going out there.
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times. Brooklyn sucks. Queens blows. The Bronx scares me. Staten Island isn’t a real place. Every borough that isn’t Manhattan is brutal.
I’m not at my 10 year yet but a colleague of mine just had his 10 year. He was class President and organized a bar crawl throughout Manhattan. And when I say organize I mean he just called up a handful of bars and told them the situation. Each bar had a drink special (think $2-3 off the original price of an overpriced beer, and some discount food). A facebook group was made and all you had to do was buy a wristband at any of the bars for a small fee and you were golden. Minimal legwork and no commitment by anyone.

I think most people need to learn proper English before venturing out and learning a new language. But hey, that’s just me.
I feel like Paulina won’t age as bad as you make it seem, but at this moment, Paulina drips sex.

Yea, right after work is one thing. A weekend game is an entirely different thing.
I live and work in Manhattan, unless it’s a spur of the moment thing I’m bringing a change of clothes so I’m comfortable at the game.

Yea, that. Brutal typo.
Sounds like blackout city once madness does roll around though. I like your brother’s style.
Always knew Bill Nye was a fraud, tomatoes are vegetables!
It’s a tough pill to swallow realizing that you’ll probably be working until the year 2080. Not ideal heading into LDW.
To be perfectly honest, I’ll never understand why someone would choose Pork over Beef. It just doesn’t make sense.
What is “Interstellar”?
I like my mediocre life way too much to risk it on a regular basis.
Why does a “sin” tax exist? Jesus already paid for our sins…
I’d like to invite that girl into my twosome.

The school I went to is perennially top 5 in the Country, and they have by far the hottest athletes in the school.
Saying “nothing but a G thang” is on par with saying “rezzie” and “perf”. It’s just something you don’t say.
