my mom gave me a dollar and dropped me off at the "park and ride".

Waste-water is 99.9% water and when put threw filters,reverse osmosis, and UV is cleaner than bottled water. Waste-Water that is only filtered and chlorinated is used for irrigation of crops and golf coarses etc...

I don't work there anymore (thank god) but Chili's is home to the most unhealthy salad in America (for chain restaurants). If I remember correctly, it weighs in at just under 1100 calories.

Oh, and the Awesome Blossom got taken off the menu because it was too unhealthy...close to 3000 calories.

I don't buy gas at any of those listed either, except occasionally Valero because the one in my town up north is one of the least expensive when filling up the truck.

All of the freight in the bay area ends up passing through the hands of only a few company's... who are just phone banks that take a commission off the top.
By the time you get to the actual guy delivering a package, you are at the 4th or 5th level of contractors

Strippers don't really like you, they just want your money.

The more money you make the less you have to pay out of pocket for your own stuff.

Cal Cards, free food, dry cleaning, car stipends, cell phone stipends and extra money put into an account just to pay taxes for your salary that is completely separate from your monthly checks and doesn't count towards your salary schedule.

I work behind a door where we cant even have our cell phones...needless to say I cant give any details about my job either lol. And if we insert anything into the USB drives, it automatically gets reported to the network security managers. Guess working with nuc's is kind of a big deal...whatevs.
