Work is currently attempting to force me to "have fun."
... Just because you guys enjoy your job and have decided to have a "fun day" does not mean I want to or have to... please just let me brood in peace so that I don't crack on you...
...
Goddamnit I'm a Debbie Downer today. Halp. >.<
Mandatory Fun™ is the worst.

Goddamnit I'm a Debbie Downer today. Halp. >.< Sometimes, at lunch, we go to a casino and they know I don't find casinos fun.
They all think it's fun. If I go, it's for a chance to make money. I've actually sat in the truck while they'd go waste money.

Goddamnit I'm a Debbie Downer today. Halp. >.< I never find "fun" events fun if they are done:
1) At work
2) During working hours (thus work is still expected)
This also partially stems from the fact that I simply cannot stand some of my co-workers and would rather not be forced to interact with them.
I have also been told that I hate fun.

Sounds like some of you are about to get a visit from the snooty corporate culture department. They like letting the people who don't fit in or partake in the group fun, go :(

"I'm not here to have fun, I can have fun on my own time. I'm here to make the company money and do my job." isn't the type of thing I'd fire over.

You bring the rest of the department down with your anti-fun attitude. This is creating an unpleasant work atmosphere for your colleagues. Why don't you wanna be a teamplayer? *shows the door while talking*

That's also interpreted as I don't like any of you and I'm not happy here in the corporate culture translator.

I argue with my boss on a daily basis, but that's because he's my dad and he's had a stroke or two and you have to argue with him to get him to understand.
I spent 45 minutes one day arguing with him in a hardware store as to why a 3/8" female fitting wouldn't work with a 1/4" male fitting for our propane heater. After about 45 minutes I just opened the components and pushed them together and stated "It. Will. Not. Work."

I need to fix our old one, that thing is badass when it's working.

Why did you spend 45 minutes arguing about something you could have demonstrated in about 30 seconds at most?

Why did you spend 45 minutes arguing about something you could have demonstrated in about 30 seconds at most? I figured if I explained it differently, I wouldn't have to open merchandise which was close to the cashier. I was worried they'd make me buy it or something. At 45 mins I didn't give a ***. It was about $35 for both, in hindsight had they told me I had to buy them, I would've asked for a discount "because they've been opened."

At my work we have a "feel free to speak your mind" culture. Some people receive it better than others... You can imagine, I'm not one to hold back!

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Continuation from: http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/2873/ffxiah-linkshell/732/#150486
Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
