Oh, and since apparently you were actually asking me a legitimate question, and I still can't edit old posts...
No, I stopped delivering back in 2008. I was a waiter for about 2~ years. Now I work third shift for a newspaper delivery company. Half my shift is warehouse, half is delivering. It sucks. Paycheck's shrinking. It's a midnight shift. Coworkers are grouchy baby boomers. Gotta drive in whatever shit weather.
I like to go down to the playground and watch the kids run and jump and scream, because they don't know I'm only using blanks.

Modern anime is a stagnant cesspool of regurgitated ideas.

It was a less a legitimate question and more to the fact I was hungry when I posted.  Are you actually delivering newspapers to individual people or do you deliver them to businesses where they are then sold?

My employers mandated that all of us at our facility would have to become certified in our field. Luckily I've kept pace with things over the years and didn't have to study too much, but I absolutely hate having to do anything for my job over and above my weekdaily 8 hours.

Same here.  Ugh.  If it's so important to the business, then schedule time for it within my 40 work hours somewhere.  Sheesh.

You people with your not having to work weekends. I gotta advance two more levels before I get out of working at least some Sats a month. I went from every Sat....to one Sat a Month....back to every Sat....then to two Sats a month. But of course they have me traveling from Branch to Branch covering for people when no one else will do it, then I haven't had two Sat off in a row in a while. So much so that I have been jokingly been given the nickname "The A-Team" (If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire The A-Team).which I gained on a day when I came in on my day off and did the job of two other workers. So when I show up they just go "Don't worry guys, The A-Team is here." And I'm also the only person outside of the big bosses and the maintenance crew, that has keys to more then one of the branches. I'm currently at 3 of 6.

/end humble brag.

Oh and I got fucked out of another house. I got the worse house hunting luck.

If it makes you feel any better, I had to work Saturday :P I'll probably have to work a bunch of them in July just to get shit done, not to mention a lot of non-compensated time just to avoid catching hell for being understaffed.

At the job I had for about 5+ years, I used to work Saturdays and Sundays and liked it until my shitbag neighbors made it harder for me to fall asleep the nights before my shifts and a misery to come home afterwards.

Luckily we are closed on Sun, or else I'd be working those as well. 

So like last Sat they needed me to fill in and I said I would do it. This would have been my 5th Sat in a row working. (and actually I'm suppose to work next sat and sat after that. So in the end it would have been 7 sat in a row.) So when I was off the two younger girls at my work came up with this plan that they were gonna work for me. One would cover at one branch while the other took on the shift I was gonna fill in for. Now both of these girls are pretty young...not go to jail if you touch them young, but young enough to make me feel old before my time, and thus tend to be a little naive, and neither has worked her very long. A year and 6 months respectively. I however am closing in on 4 years, and not only that but the branch they were sending me to, to work I had worked at for almost 3 years before moving over to where I am now. Neither of them had worked there and this was the main branch. Twice as big, three times as busy. I objected to this plan when I found out about it, but they got my boss on their side and she wanted me to have at least one weekend off so I didn't get burned out.

Fast forward to Sat. So I had to go in and talk to the IT guy about some 3D prints I was having him do for me and he works at the main branch and was gonna be there sat. So I figure I'll just chell on her and make sure everything is going ok. It wasn't...and I ended up working 4 hours off the clock in my Transformer t-shirt and shorts because she was so overwhelmed.

She just didn't want me working that many Sat. in a row and it was a warm body in the seat and one of the other workers was there too, but he kept disappearing. Plus she kept asking me to stay.

No, but it was cheap. Ring myself up as if I had a coupon, then senior discount, then employee discount. They changed that shortly before I left but, whatever, right?

No, I never worked at any fried chicken place.  I miss the old Popeye's biscuits from the 90's though.  I swear everyone had better biscuits in the 90's.  Now Church's is a hard, honeyed mess and KFC tastes like a warm handful of flour: powdery and dry.

SUPER dry. I prefer Church's tho. They are almost double the price over here (than Popeye's). Does KFC has biscuits too? I cant remember.

I just want Taco Bell to come  ::) ::)

Taco Bell was the only restaurant to survive the Franchise Wars. Now all restaurants are Taco Bell.

Lost my job in September, didn't work all of October, got a better job at the end of that month. Finally caught up on my shit again.

I guess I've been back here since getting married in January but it feels like 4 fucking years already.

Internet time is like a cat's life span.  You're gone for a bit and next thing you know, all three of the babies are gonna be forty years old in May. :(  Speaking of which, one of my cats died, by the way.  We had to put her down on Dec 30th.  My cat Sparkles.  The one joerammstein made a pirate once. She must've been in her eighties in terms of cat years so she had a long life.

And good on you for bouncing back so fast and with a better job.

Sorry about Sparkles. That she passed, I mean, not the pirate-ization. Pirate-fication. For that I will never apologize!

That was 5 years ago? Jesus.

Sparkles never regretted her life of piracy. Not even when Capitol filed a $1.5M lawsuit because she was sharing shit on Kazaa.

I read that as sharing shit on Kwanzaa. I was trying to wrap my mind around that until I re-read it.

Sorry to hear about your kitty. That always sucks. One of my childhood friends' grandmother had a cat that was almost 24 years old when it died, which would be the feline equivalent of Methuselah. Most of mine met their fate via car radiator fans, so we gave up for a number of years.

You should always share shit on Kwanzaa. It's what Sparkles would have wanted.
