Stuff

Forgive me for not having the new iTom song up yet. It actually was written Friday, but between doing stuff at Oasis and my family coming down to the con I haven't been able to record a decent vocal yet. It may not happen tonight, either, although I'll try.

However, here's something I hope will make up for it: "Tech Support For Dad", performed at the concert last night, and guest-starring... my dad. :)

McJobs

British business wants to redefine "McJob". So does McDonald's. What a coincidence.

I especially love the words of lawmaker Clive Betts: "I think the description is really derogatory of the employees themselves. It's sort of indicating that the jobs they do are worthless, that anyone could just walk in off the street and do them, that all workers are untrained."

Yeah, let's see how you feel about it ten minutes into the lunch rush, asshat.

So, what's the worst job you ever had? Mine was the single overnight shift I had at a grocery, cleaning the back room at the butcher shop with no training. By comparison, my times at Wendy's and McD's, and even my very brief stint as a dishwasher at Big Boy, were bliss.
