    Fair enough.

    But he's not gonna do shit other than line the pockets of his Wall Street buddies. The same damn thing Hillary would have done. It doesn't matter who wins, it's always the same.

    He's already doing that. Some of the people in his transition team have long careers on Wall Street and places like Bear Sterns and others that got fucked by their own doing in market collapse. Trump's gonna be the best friend of Wall Street, bankers and traders.

    Because Hillary would not be doing the same thing? I give Steeler credit for at least realizing that both are puppets to big finance.

    When did I ever say she wouldn't have been? Please show which comment I posted that said "Hillary will never be friends with Wall Street". Now you're just trying to create and spin shit that was never said. I was just making a comment in reply to what was previously stated.

    That was one thing that Bernie was right about, attacking her for her and Bill's Wall Street ties and her speeches and whatever else.

    However, for as much as Trump claimed to be the outsider candidate, so far all I'm seeing is him getting cozy with lobbyists, Wall Street and Washington insiders based on names being considered for various jobs and those who are helping behind the scenes in the transition.

    Maybe that'll change and he'll stand by his campaign claims. Or maybe Trump played his base for fools. I guess we'll find out over the coming months.

    And now after spending the entire campaign railing on same sex marriage and saying he'd name Supreme Court justices to overturn it, now he says he's fine with it as the law of the land and it's a settled issue by the Supreme Court.

    While these are just simple sit down interviews, a lot of the comments he's giving are a complete 180 from what he said and proposed on the campaign trail.

    Man, I don't fucking understand this job I'm working at. You bring me in to be your phone jockey. Then, you have like 20 calls a day, max, to be handled and then expect me to just fucking sit here like a bump on a log when the phone isn't ringing instead of me doing something to entertain myself while I wait for the phone to ring. Like, I get there is other shit to do, but then, you also don't give me the ability to do any of that shit. So, I literally have nothing to do but fucking sit here. Guess it's time to find another job. This one can go fuck itself.

    Will they let you watch IT skills training videos? If so, there are some you can join, download the videos at home (to not use company bandwidth) and then watch them in between calls. Benefit for you and them ultimately.

    They will, just never been much for that stuff. Most of them are super boring. I have some from CBT Nuggets and they're okay, but at this point, I really think I'm just done with learning anything more in the IT field. I've decided I'm going to go back to college for video production and hopefully do something I actually like doing. Heh.

    Who can give me the Coles Notes version on the Ram banning? I think I was absent that week. I know it happened but what was the catalyst? (other than the number dumb crap he did).

    I think this comment to Bill was the final straw.

    You are proof college is a waste of money.
    Bill is a smart guy, I doubt he gave two shits and it rolled right off his back but it was like RAM had completely run out of stupid shit to say and just went to the bottom of the barrel. With the invention of Steelers "This is the Only thread" he was becoming more trouble than he was worth.

    LMFAO!

    I had become so immune to his idiocy that I didn't even realize he said that.

    Never in my life have a worked for a more dysfunctional company. I just went from having to work on Thanksgiving (sucked, but I was willing to do it), to not having to work on Thanksgiving but not having a day to make up the hours, to now waiting to see what they can figure out.

    Like, you knew Thanksgiving was coming for fuck's sake! Have you never created a god damn schedule before?! Good lord. If this job wasn't a fucking cake walk and something I'll just deal with until I either find something else or go back to college, I would just quit on the spot. Absolutely terrible. No wonder this place had such a shit rating on Glassdoor.

    [QUOTE“I know my father was very proud to call him a friend and I had the opportunity to meet Fidel when my father passed away. It was also a real honour to meet his three sons and his brother President Raúl Castro during my recent visit to Cuba.

    “On behalf of all Canadians, Sophie and I offer our deepest condolences to the family, friends and many, many supporters of Mr. Castro. We join the people of Cuba today in mourning the loss of this remarkable leader.” Trudeau][/QUOTE]

    In order to understand the comments you need to have better than a surface level understanding of Canada and the 1970's. The Canada-Cuba Cold War relationship was a major policy under Pierre Trudeau. I still remember watching Pierre Trudeau's funeral and all of the major world leaders both past and present who attended. I would encourage people to actually look into the story. It's a very interesting aspect of history unknown to most south (and North) of the 49th.
