- He was probably trying to type that while on his break from work and waiting for Samsung girl (aka his girlfriend) to show up, perhaps?

Which is why I find it confusing. I didn't quite get the 'reason for quitting' in there.- Share

- sinimeRetired ModeratorThe story of why I am,quitting.
Back story: My old manager who was running the store" phill " left around the ends of September back to Redding ( he lives in Redding and was commuting every day to work here and left because he would be making more money if he stepped down as manager ) Scott was chosen to be manager here in Chico over Jen ( Scott was lead tech here in Chico before being catapulted to be manager ) so Jennifer moved to Oroville ( she moved to be closer to Brian. Keep in mind she is married to another guy. Brian got fired because he and Jennifer were in a blind stop where the cameras can't see. They were in a room together for about 30 min. You all,can make up your conclusions) to be manger there. I was lead tech for the month of October. Dillon walked out of the job. So in total there was only three workers . Me, mat , and Mary. Mat got a total of 140 hours and I got a total of 120hours for the month of October * keep all of this in mind
Names have been changed

1. The people he liked as Managers have moved away.
2. Someone he would have liked to be Manager didn't happen and someone who as less qualified is now his boss.
3. Even though he is qualified, he is getting fewer work hours versus someone who is not.
4. On top he is getting pushed to sell something in a way that he is not comfortable
Ergo, he wants to quit.
But, I agree with you, he needs to have a game plan of what to do in 2017 or better yet, have it lined up before his last day at the current employer.
Wonder, if Samsung girl can help him land a job....hmmmm.....then if he is in a blind spot with her for 30 minutes, I will let you sort out the rest :-)- Share

- sinimeRetired ModeratorI was assuming that post by Sahib was a part 1 to the story. With a climatic revelation coming in part 2, or maybe part 3???

If he would have said it like that, it would have made more sense.- Share

From what I got from the short, all bitt unclear and incoherent story, is that he doesn't like the moral of people working there, ethics and stuff. Maybe?
I imagine Sahib as a modern poet, like Boris Pasternak, when you read the poem, it makes zero sense, but when you apply impossible analogy to it, all of a sudden things get clear.- Share

- Well, I hate typos, I try to do my best to write in English and then this lousy Lumia starts lagging for no obvious reason. As far as Sahib's concerned, I'd say it's all one big mistery, he studied in US and works there, he should be a bit better in grammar :D.

- Meh, relationships can be very tiring, that's why I've been avoiding them for some time now. And if you can connect steam to nerves, well, I sure can run out of them, easily.

- I don't know if it's just me, but I get these random associations all the time, for example, Rue, you've used the word baffled. That word reminded me of a Tool's verse, "Angels on the sideline, baffled and confused", and now, God knows why, I have to listen to Tool.
I've obviously spent too much time reading Sahib's post, and the effect is more than visible.- Share

I personally try to use an extensive vocabulary. It's sometimes too easy to keep using the same words all the time.
I should get into reading books again though. Some good science ones would be nice.- Share
