In Response To An Allegation

That would be the pot calling the kettle black. Long time left wing liberal rag (not a real media source) terminating an employee over work ethics??!!

New NASA Data Blow Gaping Hole In Global Warming Alarmism

Is anyone even remotely surprised?

 

NASA satellite data from the years 2000 through 2011 show the Earth’s atmosphere is allowing far more heat to be released into space than alarmist computer models have predicted, reports a new study in the peer-reviewed science journal Remote Sensing. The study indicates far less future global warming will occur than United Nations computer models have predicted, and supports prior studies indicating increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide trap far less heat than alarmists have claimed.

Post’s from the past

 

This is a repost of two post from my prior website. The first post went like this…

I have had the dumbass’s out in force for the last couple of days.

Caller1: I have a electric truck that I need replacement bus bars for. Do you carry them.

Me: Sorry sir the bus bars are no longer available for your vehicle, but I can still get the contact bars.

Caller1: No we make our own contact bars in house. I need to place an order for a set of bus bars.

Me: I’m sorry sir the bus bars are no longer available.

Caller1: Oh ok. Well then I guess I’ll just get the bus bars on this order.

Me: Sir can you please hold. I will transfer you to someone better suited to handle your request.

That’s when I transferred him to an extension that doesn’t have a phone connected to it. Off to voice mail hell for him.

The next caller was a real winner.

Caller2: Do you sell used tires?

PartsGuy: Yes sir, when we have them in stock they are 15$ each.

Caller2: Ok, thank you. (click)

The next day

WalkInCustomer: I need one used tire.

Me: I’m sorry sir we don’t currently have any used tires in stock.

WalkInCustomer: I called last night and you told me you had used tires in stock and they were 15$ each. I drove over a hundred miles to get here.

Customer starts to walk out.

Me: Let me send a guy out to see if he can find you one.

After a little time goes by I look out the window to see a big dually diesel truck running in the parking lot.

Me: Where did you drive from again?

WalkInCustomer: 30 miles west of [Redacted].

Me: Wow that’s a long drive.

The parts runner comes back with a crappy weather rotted tire which he was totally happy with. However if the dumbass had stopped in [Redacted] to Wal-Mart he could have got the tire for less than 30$ and wouldn’t have spent near the gas, time, and saved himself the public display of stupidity. Matter of fact he could have stopped at 3 different Wal-marts along the way.

The sad thing is these are the tame calls.

And this was the second post.

The calls I get through out the day are just completely retarded. I’m all for getting calls and making my company money, but damn most are down right stupid. I can’t say where I work, but I can say I’m in the parts department for vehicular transport business. We also have service and have new vehicle sales. Here’s what some of the calls are like.

Caller Seven

Me: Parts department.

Caller7: You probably don’t remember, but I bought some parts from you yesterday, and you said to put some jack stands until the car when I worked on it.

Me: Yes sir. I do remember

Caller7: Well I didn’t and the car took off and pinned my buddy against the wall.

Me: OMG!

Caller7: I need to know what your company is going to do about it.

Me: OMG! Do you need me to dial 911 for you?

Caller7: No he’s just bruised, but he’s fine. I want to know what your company is going to do as compensation.

Me: Let me get this straight. You were recommended to use jack stands to keep yourself safe from the vehicle running away and chose not to use them. Your friend got hurt because you opted out of you and your friends safety and now you wish for (my company name) to pay you for your incompetence?

Caller7: That’s exactly what I’m saying.

Me: I just had it to be clear on the recording I present to the district attorney.

Me: Oh! I did get your order out sir, and sent it to (big time mgt company name) with your name and PO# and exactly what you told me. Unfortunately they said that they have over 300 locations in the U.S. alone and would have to ship it back as they can not use at their corporate location. They did however say they would track down the PO# and notify that person on proper purchase requisitions.

(call continues without hiccup)

No means no!

I had to go to Harbor Freight today to get a new AC manifold set. It seems some time in the last 25 years I let someone barrow my old setup and they didn’t return it. So I had to go to the place I hate the most. I rather go shopping for clothes with my wife or drop my nuts into an industrial meat grinder than to go to this place. That said I started my quest and did my best to make it as quick as humanly possible.

I got to the store and besides the crowd from the new age church around the corner the store was quite empty. Maybe 15 people at most. I saw the sign that said diagnostic tools and made beeline there. It took me about 10 seconds to find it and then I made my way to the front. This is where the trouble started. There was one customer ahead of me and he had a hammer and a punch. No big deal it should be quick. WRONG! The cashier gives the man his total and then tries to up sell him a warranty and the fool says yes. However I thought this was kewl and he’d be done. NOT! She made the up sell and couldn’t shut up trying to sell him another year and why it would be so good for him to buy. During this time she had to call for more cashiers to which I responded “If you had just shut the fuck up and made the initial sale you wouldn’t have to call for help.” I said it loud enough for her and the person behind me to hear it and giggle. After 10 minutes the guy in front of me paid 35$ for a 5$ fucking hammer. Then it was my turn.

Cashier: How are you today sir?

Me: Just rainbows and lollipops.

Customer behind me: (Concealed laugh)

Cashier: Is that all sir?

Me: Yeah, unless you want to count the 60gal air compressor I crammed up my ass to shoplift out of here. No? Then yes this is all.

Customer behind me: (Had to turn and laugh a little harder as well as the customer behind him.)

Cashier: Would you like our extended warranty sir?

Me: No.

Cashier: With our extended warranty you get blah, blah, blah, blah,blah, blah,blah, blah.

Me: No.

Cashier: But sir with our warranty.

Me: No.

Cashier: Yes sir, however with our….

Me: Look lady this has four moving fucking parts. Two dials and two knobs. I’m going to evacuate my system when I get home. So chances are if it doesn’t work I’m going to bring it back until I get a good one. It should last for fucking ever if I take care of it. So ring me up so I can get the hell out of here.

Cashier: Yes sir, but have you considered 2 or 3 years later if the product were to break?

Me: Lady I could give a shit if it breaks 2 or 3 years down the road. For a professional to do it would cost me 150$. So it’s money well spent irreguardless. Now shut the fuck and push the god damn debit button so I can leave.

Cashier: Yes sir I understand, but have you….

Me: What the fuck is it with you? Are you demented or something? Are you trying to see how fucking far you can push a person before they go on a 4 state killing spree? Enough is enough push the damn debit button so I can give you the 43 fucking dollar and leave. Then you can continue to piss off the guy behind me.

Cashier: (After that she pressed some keys and said slide you card sir.) Have a nice day, and come back to Harbor Freight.

Me: Not for love nor money.

What the hell is wrong with these people?
