Brilliant! Take it the whole way. Just have the weekend as Saturday through Sunday, but reverse the order of the days of the week.

I want to complain about the manufacturer of one of the twenty-six CDs I bought last week at ear-X-tacy. I finally got around yesterday to opening them all up to rip them into iTunes when this particular CD came up as a blank disc. I pulled it out of the CD drive and sure enough, it clearly was never imprinted with any data. What the hell? Now I am nine hours away from where I bought it and have no way to return it. I am hoping when I call ear-X-tacy today they will help me out. Has anyone else had this happen?

Yeah, same problem with some of the CD's you buy at Wal-Mart. At least three of the twenty CDs I bought from them were either blank or transparent.

I never buy music from Wal-Mart, because they edit the content.

I worked for Wal-Mart and never heard they edit any content. I don't buy from them, and I recommend no one else does either. They banned me and cut me off from my other job on the grounds of saying something I didn't say and they banned another coworker they didn't like because someone had given her a card that she thought was hers and when she went to leave they accused her of stealing. They pay no attention to your hours of availability, only manager's pets get to work full time, and they pay their "valued" employees dog sh*t. Also "thank you for shopping at H*ll-Mart" literally translates "thank you for funding China."

Holy cow! I do believe I'd actually get younger every day. We must implement this at once!

I wish to complain about the people who went behind my back to get me fired from job today. Not once did anybody say I was doing anything wrong or that I was not meeting anyone's expectations. Essentially I get canned for personality conflicts. Oh…tomorrow will be interesting, seeing as I have to still attend a few meetings with you before the new person takes over. What a bunch of lying sacks of <bleep>.

Similar to my previous Wal-Mart termination and banning. Sorry it happened to you. Hope you find a better job soon.


Complaint, I hate it when people attack my beliefs openly and wont let me defend it openly.

You could always play The Vaughans Krap Rap for them (although it would be just your luck if they like songs like "Who Farted" and "Curry In A Hurry" and "Gravy Boat").

I would like to complain about the hurried pace of modern life.

Hear hear!

And... I would like to complain that my team at work just moved into a new building, and my office has not one, but TWO smoke-dome cameras outside of it. WTF? I know they're not there to watch me specifically (at least I think not 8O ), but I find them annoying. WHO is at the other end of these cameras? And the 32 cameras that I pass en route from my office to my car....? And the 143 cameras on lamposts (I'm serious) I pass driving from work home...? Nobody seems to know. There's far FAR too much of that going on these days.

I DON'T WANT/NEED A BIG BROTHER, THANKS.

Good fortune,

- Icarus the Surveyed

Cameras are there to spy on people and be used as evidence in a court of flaw. We don't need them anymore than we need sickos peeking in a bathroom stall.
