I dont know about you, but i’m getting pretty bloody sick of this. I mean, who do these people think they are? that they could even THINK about doing something so utterly friggin retarded.
And it’s not just them, it’s their whole bloody “way”. you know what i mean, holy christ some times you just want to spit in their eye, give them a wedgie, roll them up in a carped and chuck 'em off a bridge
That’s pretty well it, i just dont think anyone ought to take it anymore. there’s no sense in it, none at all. Just my thoughts anyway
I certainly hope so otherwise I’m going to have to assume that lindsay has gone off on yet another argument against blood donating using a different name.
Maybe I’ll hang out at ATMB and see if Upham posts there complaining that his reply has not shown up in a thread yet.
Meanwhile, what are you doing up this late/early?

I understand about the cornea thing too. I think that sucks.
I work as a PBX operator/alarm monitor/office lackey for a hospital (3rd shift, obviously!)
Say, can you get me free PPV? (Since I know no one ever asks you that question!) Of course, even if you could it wouldn’t do me any good seeing as I am at work the same time as you! Sorry, I can’t get you free catheters or anything cool like that! Do you actually talk to people calling in or do you just set up the PPV movies, sort of like a master control operator?
I have some friends who live somewhere outside Denver, I think (Evergreen?) I’ve been contemplating coming out there for a visit. My friends say it is really beautiful.

Well, some of them. I have to be kind of careful when I chat people up at work because I the PPV I sell is XXX. It’s also available for longer duration, but on this shift PPV is king!
Whn you have my job, and you’re a courteous customer service unit with a female voice - sometimes you get WAY too much info about the customer’s plans for their programming and how it will figure into their evening.
I’ve become pretty good at ending inappropriate chit-chat without being a jerk.
It’s a life skill that I value.
Evergreen is beautiful! If you ever come up, shoot off an e-mail, maybe I can buy you a cuppa joe.
I work (as I said) in a hospital but one of our phone numbers is similar to sex hotline number. You can imagine the calls I get from people thinking this is some kinky nurse-patient role playing hotline. I say, “Johnson City Medical Center, may I help you?” and they say, “Yeah, what are you wearing?” and I say, “Excuse me, sir, this is a hospital,” and he says, “Yeah, I need a real thorough examination…” etc. It’s lovely.
So do you sell PPV for Dish network or DirecTV or something else?

I sell subscriptions to the Extasy Networks fine family of adult channels.
We only broadcast on Large Dish Satelite Systems Those are the big C-band DTH units that people have in rural areas, or just sometimes in their backyard.
If someone actually starts the call off the way you described, I get a real authoratative voice and say “You have the wrong number. We only sell movies. No conversation. Do you have a pencil?” Then I give them a 900# that charges directly to their phone line when they call it. Most of them manage to stammer an apology and write down (or at least pretend to write down) the number.
You should get a real 900# to hand out and try it sometimes. Make sure its the kinkiest 900# you can find.
No, i wasnt replying to another conversation or anything like that, i just wanted to see what people would talk about if anything at all if i was to start something totally meaningless.
Kinda fun eh?

You have just admitted to being a troll.
By the number of your previous posts this may be due to ignorance on your part .
As an explanation to why your original post is not desirable perhaps you should think of the possible consequencies.
Usually at, any given time, several posters will be slagging each other for various reasons but this can degenerate into a board war with people taking sides and hurt feelings all round.Perhaps a sense of proportion has been lost ,who knows.
When you put up your OP several SD’ers ,quite naturally, assumed that you were pissed off and speculated why.
One poster raised the possibility that it might be to do with a particular thread about blood donation which was getting warm but not too hot.
The point is, what you did, was to cause speculation and folk are always inclined to assume the worst.This could easily have ended up with fuel being thrown onto a dying fire with all the negative connotations that entails.
Please do not put up replies or threads in order to merely obtain a reaction unless you have a specific point to make, and if you do have a point to make then make it
I sincerely hope you do not get ripped apart for this- a few words from youself would go a long way.
Anyway, back to our conversation, Commander Fortune, at one time I actually did have the real 900# that these people were trying to reach. I would give it out to them when they called and for a while, we got fewer of these calls. However, the ultra-religious people in my office complained to our boss that we (my and the other third shift worker) were advocating a sex hotline on behalf of the hospital and he made us stop. Of course, my non-third shift working co-workers never get these calls so they don’t understand. Sometimes if the creep calling doesn’t seem to understand that I am not going to talk to him/her, I will connect them with our Ask-a-Nurse program.
