The life and times

I've exhausted a fair amount of characters this morning (the morning Iran and Israel shoot missles at each other), so this is going to be whatever.

I've made about $17,000 in six months working at a warehouse. I operate a Taylor-Dunn; I pretty much do real life Mario Kart:

as in, I drive around in laps, at high speeds, collecting items, while aiming to finish as fast as possible. I'm able to fit 75 items (various auto parts such as: plate discs, fenders, bumpers, rims, arm assemblies, springs, coils, rods, columns, lamp combs, clusters, etc,--a bunch of heavy shit basically) on my rig--and I do it fast. I work harder than three people and more accurately, as well. When they pick up two disc plates, I pick up fifteen; I work hard.

I also operate a Crown and Raymond Order Picker

picking doors, hoods, crossbars, mounts, trunk lids, bonnets, windshields, bigger plate discs, bigger rims, etc,--thirty feet or more.

I even do reach truck

for when fuckers order a 485 Kg pallet of disc plates (you fuckers), pallets of arm assemblies, transmissions--shit Hulk could actually use as a weapon.

I do my job well; my productivity is at 107%. I work 10 hour days, Monday through Friday.
I even assist new employees, old employees, the cleaning ladies, the top brass, the middle brass, security guards, the dudes who actually load the truck after I stock the cages--I help everyone do everything to get shit out the door on time.

I've gone from a 34'' waist to 29'' and built muscle like a motherfucker (and I fuck mothers, if you can read that back to yourself, because you know what I mean)

Recently (Monday), I got sick, but had to keep working. I'm a man and can't bitch out because I don't feel well and that led to me crushing my thumb under a bumper from about five feet on a concrete floor--I can't feel 20% of my thumb.

I don't have time to fill a workmans comp out and wait for benefits--I only have time to work and keep things afloat, so I'm starting another job (another warehouse) in-between me starting an apprenticeship for an iron worker. After I become skilled (above journeyman, I guess) I can make about $23.00 an hour.

Now for the ice cream and cake:

I bought a lot of shit, did a lot of shit, made a lot of bets, lost a lot of things, ordered a bunch of stuff, paid for numerous services, took care of business, lived good, suffered, had animals die (old age and maybe heartbroken that I wasn't around) got into a lot of fights, got a couple scars, paid bills, made nightmares and dreams come true.

I almost had a kid, turned down a marriage proposal, started writing a script, got a part in a play, had fuckers squelch on debts, and during that time, I tried to stay "active" on the temp, to keep my sanity from stress at every turn--what the fuck was I thinking to call the temp "an attempt to keep my sanity"?

I swear, I thought some terrible thoughts, but I'm taking it in stride.

This is why I'm following a lot of you--those I follow, I respect: for what you say, for what you do, things you've done, work you've put in, and just generally being you. For years, I was like, "follow me and I'll follow you", but that's a bitch mentality. Straight-up, some of you don't get credit for the things you do--you get whiny asslicks complaining about bullshit. So for now, following you is the bet I can do. Some of you (who I don't follow, with the exception of one) are just kind of oblivious......while others, better hope I don't setup a blood cult. Kidding!

So pretty much, yeah, I am all fucked up on level three adulting. I'm probably going to die an early death from overworking, but I just wanted you to know: I fuckin' cared.

P.S. some bitches are going to be bitches and I'm going to haunt the fuck out of you.

"Jesus loves you. Let him show you the light."
If he loves me suffering, sure, I'll believe it.

Shit, I might as well be Jesus with all the miracles I've performed for people.

Though, I guess drinking 18 cups of coffee everyday and not having a heart attack by now is something to be "grateful" for?:unsure:

"Why does this sound like a 4chan greentext story?"

Hahahahaha that's why I started writing a script--my life is crazy, but hilarious.

"I saw the "real-life mario kart" and that got my attention"
I also do real-life Tetris to fit all the parts into cages.
The joys of working in a warehouse and being a video game aficionado.
 
Your work ethic is more than admirable. I hope I've never bothered you because it seems like you could beat me to a pulp. Keep up the hard work and I know bigger and better opportunities will present themselves to you. Also, make sure you're taking care of yourself. Life's short and I'd have for you to cut it shorter just because you're working yourself to the grave

@Nerdtendo
Thank you much. Actually, my plan is to die. I'm going to take a life insurance policy out on myself, die early, and hookup the soon-to-be (probably-ish) wife and kids.

@CreeperdivoHomebrewer
Thank you as well, Sir. Good job yourself; most people are content with scraps, but I'm glad to see you push yourself to get what you want.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
