That Thread About Work: "Custom kitchen deliveries...!"

[thee great one]

I deliver furniture.

I've been doing it for 3 years.


I'm a delivery specialist.

 

[Lynx]

That. Is. Awesome.

. . .I dunno. It's like being perpetually stuck in English class.

I'm a delivery specialist.

I've always heard you had problem with the delivery. . .

 

[Jaggyd]

Completely gobsmacked.


I'm a full time student, and I was recently asked by a pro-comic artist to be his full time colorist...

Even though he claims I'm as good as him (and he BSes me that I could be better), as a penciller, this is still my foot in the door.

I'm just overwhelmed by the gravity of this request... I can't think straight.

That's what she said!!



HIYO!!!

That's awesome news, congrats!

What really gets me is when a simple Google Search of a suspicious line from their paper sends me to the paper they copied from, I have all of the proof, and they STILL claim they wrote the paper and their parents try and back them up on it.

Maybe they have an elastic definition of 'write'.

"I saw him type it out, so he must have written it!!!"

Incidentally, how do these situations usually end?

I HATE IT when students turn in papers they claim are theirs but are so OBVIOUSLY not written in their style.

It's like they either insult my intellegence assuming that I can't tell the difference between what they write in class and what they write at home or insult my profesisonalism by assuming that I don't actually read what they've written.

I know that it's a job like mine that can lead to situations like these.

But seriously, if you're going to cut and paste a paper online, or buy one from people like me, have the decency to edit it. Teachers will always see the difference between your style and another's.

It is NOT that hard to rewrite it and paraphrase the whole damn thing into something completely unrecognizable. Get a thesaurus and go over it. If you're REAL lazy, use an automated software thesaurus.

Who knows, maybe you'll learn something while doing the editing because you'll actually be reading the smarty pants stuff you just stole or bought.

Incidentally, ShaggyMarco, have you ever encountered a situation where a person plagiarized a paper that doesn't even have anything to do with what you asked them to write? As in:

"I asked you to write a history of ethanol, not cellulose ethanol vs crude oil."

I can't think straight.

that would be funny as a joke. Congratulations!

EDIT: not for the joke, for the job offer.

 

[ourchair]

Hmmph!

*Angry that this thread is useless to the unemployed*

GEEZ! Get a job!! :roll:

And NO, "Knows what evil lurks within the hearts of men" is not a job skill to put on your resume.

Right now I am content with bar tending part time and Deejaying part time. The music store called the other day and asked if I would consider coming back, but I don't think I will since I'm going back to school in the fall and am making equal money for less time put in.

On a lighter note, I was asked if I had ever considered being a male escort the other night and was presented with a business card.

 

[TwilightEL]

I used to pet- and babysit.



...it didn't go well.

Seriously, they knew the safe word.

Moonmaster was going to get Ourchair Points, but you just won them from him.

[Zombipanda]

and now I don't work delivering pizzas anymore.

 

[Joe Kalicki]

and now I don't work delivering pizzas anymore.

Good call. That job blows.

 

[Zombipanda]

Good call. That job blows.

Yeah. Well, the tips were good and I got to drive around all day just smoking and listening to music.

I guess I should be bugging about this, but I think I can get by without the job.

Getting paid in cash is the only good part. Driving around town all day isn't a particular blast for me.
