So, I’ve been applying for jobs, right? I hate Buc-ee’s, but not for any good reason. Probably more because it’s easy for me to pretend to have strong feelings for some convenience store that has somehow managed to accrue such a large cult following, which is absolutely ridik. Anyway, I applied to work there because I figure it wouldn’t be such a bad place, mmmhmmmm? Yeah, well, their application is MORE ridik than their cult following, which, fyi, has spread Buc-ee’s love all over the states. I had to pass a 15 question math test (not too difficult, basic 8th grade math skillz) and another effing ethics test.
Last time I took an ethics test for a job, I failed. Miserably. Meaning I was miserable. I’m just not ethical, except that I am. If a person had been asking the questions, I wouldn’t have had a problem (most likely). I mean, I’m fairly ethical (I think). maybe I’m not and SPOILER ALERT like House END SPOILER I’ve deluded myself. Perhaps, I have, in effect, unethically convinced myself that I am when I am actually not.
Also, the HEB application is remarkably simple in nature. :)

Apparently genetics was not part of Roger Clemens’ education, ever. Like, normally sports and rampart drug use blahblahblah isn’t my thing, but really? I was watching the news, and the austin news people actulaly let him sound stupid, again. If you don’t know (I know I didn’t), this morning he refuted his drug use charges, claiming it would be suicidal because his step-father had heart disease.
wtf.
BUT this is an excellent example to open up my next point. Today I decided that the interactions of my siblings have uncanny resemblances to the interactions of internet fiends and trolls. there are mountains and mountains of posts and articles and forum topics devoted to tearing the clemens fellow apart for his apparent ignorance of basic genetics. my siblings do the same thing. they find one thing, and they use, twist, mangle, beat and thoroughly enjoy taking someone out.
when I’m home, it’s me, which is fine. not a bad job to have. I can take it. Still can’t dish it out, but whatevs.
