Apparently I am a paid operative of Rahm Emanuel

[Taverner]

Hey guys! Anyone know when I'll get my check?

[Tripper11]

1. Now that's gotta pay well....

Any other openings?

[Taverner]

2. I dunno - I just got the job today

Good thing folks in GD were nice enough to let me know about it - and to think I didn't even apply for the position!

[kimi]

6. Those folks in GD sometimes intimidate me

When I first started at DU, one of the first things I was told was to stay in the Lounge and avoid GD. And oh my goodness, after a few visits over there, I do see why. Now, whenever I skulk over there, I might post a sentence or two, and then run back here really fast.

I get awful a-skeered.:scared:

[Taverner]

8. You a'skeeerd o' them?

Seriously, I've always loved that spelling. Couldn't resist

[kimi]

15. Yessir, they skeer me!

Make me want to run for my mama.

(She comes from Kentucky and I get lots of mannerisms and wordisms from her. Not my political views though. Those are all mine. :))

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

3. Countless.

He's personally funding the entire recovery, apparently.

[MrCoffee]

4. You'll get the check in about 2 weeks

Did you sign up for direct deposit? It's much quicker that way.

Also, when he says one 15 minute break, he means it. We all try to chip in for coffee and stuff, just help yourself. The bathroom on the third floor, you have to jiggle the handle a bit or it'll just run all day.

Let's see...you got the orientation packet, right? It's pretty comprehensive, should answer most of your questions.

Welcome aboard Team Rahm!

[Shining Jack]

7. You seem pretty well informed, MrCoffee...

If that's your real name. :Looking suspiciously at MrCoffee:

[MrCoffee]

9. You're on The List

Oh yes, yes you are.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

5. You have to tithe 10% to St. Dennis first.

:P

[Taverner]

10. But wouldn't that run counter to Rahm's plan to all fall in line?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

12. Yes, but GD would guilt you into it.

[LostInAnomie]

11. I'm just interning at RahmCo.

I'm hoping with my hard work, diligence, and extensive use of "DLC talking points" I can get one of those sweet paid jobs. I must be doing pretty well though, because a lot of people seem to think I've already scored a paying job.

[Iggo]

13. There ain't no check!

You had to know Rahm was gonna stiff you.

[SoxFan]

14. He pays in scrip issued by a Canadian logging company

[Forkboy]

16. That's kind of giving you credit.

[jonnyblitz]

17. please. rahm may be an asshole but he isn't THAT stupid.

no offense.

[Forkboy]

18. LOL...I love the "no offense" tag.

It's like a get out of jail free card. You can say almost anything in front of that and get away with it. I think your mother blows dead cowboys for small change...no offense. Friends always get it! :rofl:

;)

[old mark]

19. At least you have a job.....nt

[NoPasaran]

20. I remember when it was all about love of corporatism and the DLC

You mercenaries are really messing with the scene, man.
