In the United States, a lot of times, there’s only 2 or 4 sets of equipment and crews that can do permanent repairs to roads in an entire state, and you have to wait until the equipment is near you before you can get the permanent repairs done. Otherwise everything is temp patches. They spend the whole summer working across the state, county by county, and when they get to the other end of the state they turn around and go back, fixing roads as they go.

@Derpy Whooves  
That is a ridiculously low number, considering the sheer size of a state.

@Scrabbleman  
Well, if people wanted more infrastructure maintenance, or more money to be spent on crews to maintain the roads, they’d have to be ok with money being spent on that. But that leads us to the Political Zone. On average though, those teams make it across the state often enough that things don’t fall completely apart, which is apparently what the majority of Americans wants.

This goddamn irate customer I had to attend to got under my skin. He wanted to know where the bags were, so I showed him where, but after I had to quickly help someone else, he told me “you didn’t answer my question.” Motherfucker, I told you and motioned you where the goddamn bags were. Old bag of bones even had the gall to tell me that I wasn’t being helpful when I told him where the chocolate was after I told him what aisles they were in. Ugh…

Welcome to retail hell, my friend.

A note to engineers. Just because it looks fine on a autoCAD readout does not mean it is practical, accessible, or hell even functional in the field.
 
Ever heard the old saying “no plan survives contact with the enemy”? Meditate on that saying before approving any design document.

My manager put it best: “Customers think that they’re entitled just because we serve them”. Fucking bullshit

@ILoveMyoozik  
I take it you have a story to share.

I fucking HATE spring!
 
I have a throat that has been itching for weeks straight and no medication seem to relieve it. Fuck my throat!

@Selaphiel  
Allergies, huh? I like spring myself because it’s not hot like summer, cold like winter or windy like autumn.

@CaptainXtra  
I just did on my original post.

I just served a guy who had a Hitler mustache

He’s not getting away with that.

@Derpy Whooves  
Ugh, temp patches. Welcome to Michigan. They cause more trouble than they are supposed to fix. Not only do they leave little bits of tar pebbles everywhere flying up against your car and are a royal pain to get off the frame and body once the tar cools and hardens but the patch lasts for just a few days before its just a pothole again. Tax dollars at work.

I’m 3/4 the way through a bottle of wine and 1/2 my way through some banana bread I made.
 
Pretending the world doesn’t exist.

@Derpy Whooves  
They wouldn’t have to fix the roads so often if they built them right the first time. All the roads by me are poured concrete slabs, which would be fine except that there is no rebar connecting the slabs so they shift and become uneven.
 
A road near me is collapsing because it’s being undercut by running water in a ditch on one side that was never reinforced.

I hate cats in real life.

Good God…
 
This website is advertising bootlegs!

I hate it when I’m in the middle of searching through my internet (Safari) on my phone and it suddenly crashes, All my accounts on Derpibooru, FB, Twitter and Google gets automatically logged out.

Oh joy, there’s a physical release of Dust and Flinthook for the Switch, too bad they’ve been price gouged by greedy prices who care more about their wallets rather than the games.

I will forever be out of place in this world.

@CaptainXtra  
Is it because they’re boring?

@Count Adramélekh Sear ov the Far East  
I feel the same way for my tablet

God put office people here to prove that humanity is utterly fucked.
