dammit...missed a coyote by about 1 inch over his back. Bastard was watching my chickens again. Shouldve taken 5 seconds to get rested instead of shooting from a half walk. He'll be back...

I'm a good shot, next time you see it, text me.

all I could do was shake my head. he was only 100 yds away, for some reason I held high and aimed like he was 400 yards away. dumbass

Perhaps you forgot to compensate for the curvature of the earth?

I thought randy said the earth was flat. dammit. Thats probably my error.

Center mass..1/4” per 100yards…with a range appropriate round

yea, theoretically I know that, I mean, I've hunted...for some reason i held two hashmarks high as if the damn thing was way out there. I just blew it, plain and simple. Embarrassing moment in time.

the good news, they're here often,

Travis Kelce dropped two balls and fumbled on the eight yard line last week. Even the greats make mistakes.

To anyone reading this that has had a bad start to their day, at least your day started better than this.....
Car somehow drove/made it in to "the lake" (Lake Michigan right off of Chicago Avenue).

PLEASE make sense of this for me......
Co-worker was clearly sick last week. Came in to work saying she felt like shit. She felt like she had a fever. She was coughing like crazy with phlegm. Etc.
Today she said she's still sick and NOT coming in to work.
She knew she was sick last week and still came in to work. No consideration and no problem exposing all of us who work with her - and were going to spend time with family and loved ones over the long Thanksgiving holiday break.
Today she says she's still sick so she isn't going to come in to work.
Why the fuck didn't she stay home last week - and why is she staying home today?

[DeletedUser]

Because she is tired after a long weekend of hanging with family and friends?

There's a stigma in our society that anyone who calls into work "sick", is malingering, i.e., exaggerating or feigning illness in order to escape duty or work, until proven otherwise.

To wit: One Saturday morning while on call for myself and the other 9 physicians in my practice, I could tell I had yet another kidney stone coming on. The last thing I would ever want anyone to think was that I was lazy, unreliable, or unwilling to pull my weight. So, with ~ 40 patients to see in the hospital that day, I kept rounding and seeing our patients as fast as I could. Eventually tho, it was becoming obvious that I wasn't going to be able to finish seeing them before the end of the day, so I called one of my partners who was my "backup". (Something I had never done before or would ever do afterwards, because when any of us weren't on call for the group, we deserved to be "off".) My partner showed up and we divided the patients and kept going while my kidney stone became worse and worse. At one point, by chance, I happened to run into my partner in a hallway, which was not a given because the hospital was 11 stories tall. We were standing there talking and another physician we knew walked up to join the conversation, when I suddenly passed out due to the pain. Fortunately, they caught me before I hit the floor. They put me in a wheelchair and took me to the ER. I worked 16 hours the next day seeing our patients after passing the stone overnight.

True story.

Crazy story!
A. You are dedicated.
B. You have a much more important job than my co-worker.
C. I couldn't pass a kidney stone for a week. Not too sure why they waited an entire week (being that the majority of the time I was in excruciating pain) but they finally gave me a "Ureteroscopy".

Maybe your dick is so small, they couldn't find your urethra to thread the catheter into?





just spitballing, I could be wrong...

Yes, my dick is so small but they never made the effort until after I suffered for a week.


Back to my original post this morning......
Yep, go figure. Someone else I directly work with is out today with Covid.
Someone in the office today is obviously sick. She claims she is "fine". Nope. Not fine. Sick.
That's life in the big city.
I suppose I can lie and say I feel sick and go home to avoid the people in the office who are truly sick.
It's a no win situation for me.

i praise people that come to work when they are not feeling well. means they're rugged. and almost certainly boomers or gen x. we will power through anything.

they are most certainly not millenials or gen z. they are the opposite of rugged.

You really should write a book of your clever quips.

It would read a lot like Naked Lunch, but without the sentence structure.
