Hand cranked mp3 player

So you're strolling along in your hike in the woods, when suddenly your MP3 player dies on you! OH NOES! What to do what to do? You didn't pack any extra batteries, and there isn't an outlet around for miles (that you're aware of, cause the Reptoids totally won't let you use theirs) that you can just jack in to.

Well fret no more friends, because there is The Cranking MP3 Player from Thanko. When your 5 kilometer hike is dead in the water because you forgot to charge the great Beegees and Abba collection on your mp3 player, whip this bad boy out and crank it for 1 minute to get an additional 10 minutes of ch00ns.

Just don't get caught cranking your player in public. Children and parents don't want to see that, and it leaves you vulnerable to being robbed on the Metro.

Dear Erin Keane



In your article about the cold and wet and wind, you state that Louisville wouldn't want to see your downtown in that wrap skirt after a strong gust of wind. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing your downtown and wet turf. We could turn you into our own Louisville branded Paris Hilton-esque socialite, replete with pantie and crotch shots in situations where we know you knew better than to wear this or that.

Now, speaking as the caffeine free God that I am, caffeine free diet coke is good. Caffeine is very bad for the human body, and if you go more than a couple days without it, your body will tear you apart. Fight the urge! Once you're caffeine free, you will feel healthier, lose weight, be happier, wake up on time and not feel groggy, etc.. Just Say No!

Finally, Ms. Keane, again I would like to re-iterate that yes please, I would like to see your downtown and wet turf, you can send pictures to wasituna+erin@gmail.com and I promise I won't expose you to the world, until you are as famous as at least Larry Birkhead, pre-Danilyn, and I can make money off it, kthxbaizors!

Ugh

So, from a friend who ran into Amanda so very recently, it is discovered that she is still talking smack about me, saying I did things with a girl who I worked with, who was seeing someone else who we worked with at the same time. I'm not truly fond of threesomes honestly.

  1. Amanda and I had split up by the time this supposedly happened but still lived together, and she was out doing her thing and coming home late at night, coked up on God knows what.
  2. Ashley was dating Chris at the time this all supposedly happened, and he was playing games with me on some instant messaging programs, mocking me, and I still have those chats saved somewhere with date and time stamps.
  3. I never did anything with anyone while with Amanda, even when we broke it off. Unlike her, who was jobless most the time, not home a lot of the time I was, and I even found strange people sleeping on the couch some nights when I'd get home from working two full time jobs, while she was sleeping naked in the bed with the door wide open.
  4. I couldn't afford to do things with other people, as I was paying the rent and all the bills.
  5. If Amanda is so happy with her apparent new Fiancee, then why does she feel the need to still go on about me, The Great and Powerful The James?
  6. Never trust a natural red-head.
  7. Blonds really are much more fun.
  8. FSM commands thee.
  9. Ann Coulter is a freaking alien.
  10. Your mom.

Thanks for your time, now you may go back to reading your Easter Sunday feeds in your underoos.

AHT

I have some concerns that don't appear to be getting addressed when I direct them to my superior.

In response to Mr. Kings email: Maybe we have a high AHT today because of incomplete installs where the tech just left the customer with the modem and told them they were good to go and to call in to us to get everything set up. Not only is this (and it happens way too often) causing distrust and annoyances with our customers, it's also doing the same to that field tech, or contactors, internal customers as well. Is it any wonder many customers all but refuse to upgrade if they have to have a tech out? Maybe also, there are some people working today, who for various reasons, really need to be off but can't afford to because they're either loose their job or they'll be out on much needed cash? Maybe someone has a family member in the hospital dying, but God forbid if they want to spend time with them, selling more products is more important to a company with a stock that reached less 90 cents the past week, and has remained under a dollar for the better part of a year?

We are staffed just fine if everyone works together, but where should our focus be? Amy telling her team to ignore AHT and do anything we can to get an RGU, corporate saying to lower AHT most importantly today, and get some RGU's while we're at it. Constant flip-flopping from one side to the next. Should I ignore who I directly report to and go with corporate and face insubordination and termination as Amy has stated such actions would be, by not following her words exactly?

This is the same supervisor who told me that working 12 hours didn't give me a 3rd break because it'd have to be 4 overtime hours, not a 10 hour shift with 2 hours overtime. Sorry bitch, but the law's the law, 4 hours=1 break, doesn't matter what format it's done in, just so long as it's straight hours.

Fuck this, I'm moving to Utah.

Hello.



We understand there are staffing challenges on weekend. We also understand that customers sometimes wait to call us until the weekend. And in theory, we understand that this is a business with business needs.



Today I am being informed by Workforce that a very high ranking executive wants us to know that they are very unhappy about the high AHT today. I do not have an answer that they will find satisfactory. So please be efficient and give the customer your FULL attention. If I see anyone surfing, shopping or otherwise goofing off while they are on call, then I will have an answer for the Vice President.



“Well, our AHT is high because people cannot seem to stop playing games while talking to our customers.”



“AHT is high on Saturday because EBAY is much cooler than the customers and their problems”



“The WoW forums are just so lively on Saturday that I must participate! The customer still gets helped, but after I post about my Raid Group”



What sort of reaction do you think that will get? We have to start living up to the expectations. I cannot stress how much visibility we have on us RIGHT NOW



While you are here, BE HERE.
