Who said US doesn't export?? Their nailguns sell like hot cakes!!
He looks like the neighbor next door that never acknowledges you when you greet him and makes the dogs disappear when they take a shit on his lawn!...
Wonder if he's got all those other psychopathic tendencies along with the way he stole people and Nation(s) money?!!!
he looks like a guy in a home video knock off of a Star Trek episode, Bones and Spock in one character, Jim my telemetry reveals this planet has an advanced civilization, but get this, they have no fiat currency....
The Nailenator.
Is it nail-bitin’ time yet ?
Just so folks don't think I'm too negative but the cotton crop looks good. That probably still means twenty bucks for your underwear but at least someone will have the cotton.
Nothing better than 100% cotton underwear.
I'll plus you for that. I had job interview on Friday for a Agronomist position even though my degree is in horticulture which is a more refined version of agronomist. I was a bit confused even though both interviewers wher alma mater from where I matriculated. The interview went well enough, I guess, but the job was for agronomy. Not what once was I asked in a one hour interview ANYTHING about plants.
This is forth time through shit like this were they use STAR script. One of the questions was, "Name a job that you think would to be perfect and that would you love to go everyday and love doing it." I almost just wanted to punch the guy in the face but I did not. I simply stated that "I give no such thought to anything like that because you can't get something for nothing. There is no perfect job."
Think about how stupid that question is. Maybe I should have said that I would like to be a central banker?
As he flipped the page on his script, he asked what meant by that as though it where not clear enough.
"There is no such thing is perfect and there are always repercussions.", and the he jotted something down. These people blow my mind. If there was such a thing as a perfect we would have figured it out by now.
I really have a hard time dealing with shit like that. All I want is to help people grow crops and food or whatever plants they want. Good Lord already.
NEWS FLASH for everyone with limited experience in a professional work environment. You will be hard pressed to find an organization that doesn't have a large number of losers in positions of authority. It's painful to kiss ass and set your pride on the back burner, but learn to feign interest and acquiesce to the bullshit because it's how you ultimately advance your career opportunities/size of your paycheck. You'll be doing it for you...not for them and it's not like you have to hang out with lame co-workers outside of work. So congrats to anyone who has found a "perfect" work place and passionately waits for the weekend to end so they can get back to the job, but to the vast majority....find amusument observing the nonsense, learn to laugh in your head while keeping a straight face and play the game.
Plus WTF...didn't you guys see the latest Lego move? Everything is awesome...everything is cool when you're part of a team!
How about: A perfect job would be one where I didn't have to answer a million insipid questions just to get it!...and then walk out.
I had to go through a punch of stupid questions like that when I applied for a teaching job 15 years ago, and I am soooo glad I didn't get/take the job. I actually found one run by normal people who weren't too clever-by-half, as the English say.
Do you even want to work at a place where they have people ask you stupid questions like the ones above?
I did a stint at AMD, and after getting notified I would be laid off that afternoon, I went out and had a liquid lunch. My manager and an HR person (yes they do still hire the young and pretty female eye candy.) gave me the exit interview. For starters, I told them to hurry it up, I had more drinking to do. Then I told the HR representative that I didn't mind getting laid off, because as soon as you are done here, you are getting the axe yourself. They did cut a wide swath through HR shortly after laying off the 40% of the engineers...( a few years back, Lone Star Campus, Austin)
BTW, anyone want to take any bets how long AMD is going to stay in business, now that they've had even more layoffs?
I'd bet that Lenovo buys them and eventually kicks Intel's ass.
Thanks for your work, I've had many good AMD products in the past.
Why don´t you just go into business for yourself ? Good knows that the quality of foodstuffs in the U.S. is pisspoor. I would go so far as to even say they are toxic. We are seeing alarming rise in gastrointestinal cancer in young age. I´m saying that increasing amounts of thirty-somethings are catching colon cancer and such.
Produce something that is guarantee free of GMO and pesticides and that sort of crap. If everything else fails you can sell it to the rich and the super-rich. They are not about to start dining at Chick-A-File and McD any time soon. You could even refrain from any kind of marketing and just sell your products on recommendations as a "secret" service to the wealthy.Put a hefty price tag on your produce so that the peons can´t afford it. That´s very good inthe eyes of the elite.
As for that company...just say No. They are obviously in the hand of some insane marketing consultant hired by a totally crazy CEO.
Hey Manipuflaton, since it is your field, are you famliar with humates, fulmic and humic acids, ect???
Just askng, I have found a small mine in Colorado that really has some good stuff doe growing veggies, crops or pot!
Grandson grew a carrot as large as a sweet potato!
You got down arrowed by one of those anti-hortoagroculturalists
As a former Exec Recruiter, with 20 yrs of experience in hiring, if you ever want a job, you need to learn quite a bit about how to get a job.
Your ambition is somewhere in the bottom of the tank and your emotions completely out of control (punch the guy in the face??) running wild.
Those types of questions are designed to get some insight into who you are, not just what you can do. Testing your imagination gives the interviewer some idea of your creativity, and ability to think on your feet. Few companies want robots that can answer specific questions.
If you really want to help people grow plants, take some interview training b4 U go out on any more interviews.
You will thank me later.
Oh Comte, you dissapoint me.
I fear your head may be too far down the rabbit hole to comprehend the full meaning and weight of what we are saying.
As a former "Exec Recruiter", blah, blah, blah... pretty much sums up everything I need to know about you, and why corporate management is so effed up in this country. Most of the execs need someone to wipe their arses because they don't have an ounce of skill in their bones other than perhaps the ability to answer completely vapid questions. (Which means lie.)
The last phone interview I was on that I was asked me where I expected to be in 5 years, I told him retired. I got flown out for the interview and got the job. But then you've never seen my resume.
Using humor in good taste is a good tactic. I would applaud that somewhat whimisical response, in a serious setting. It lowers the tension level.
That "Vapid" question provided you a platform to perform on and you did. It's the essential Abbott to your Costello.
CEOs are a lot more talented than you are giving them credit for. That said, NO CEO is worth more than 30 times the average employees' compensation, instead of the 200-400 X it is today. That's criminal.
^5 from a fellow Horticulture major.
Can't stand those bullshit interview questions: "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" "How would you deal with a co-worker who wasn't doing their share of the work on your team?" or "Tell us about a time you made a mistake?" Uh...let's see...mistake...dicking around with wankers like you for a job you won't offer me because I'm not a mindless toadie?
Jeebus! Should have been an Econ or Law major - but I'm not a good liar.
I hear you EB. I didn't know that you were into growing plants but you summed that Star thing up nicely. I'm not suprised. I am starting to think that I can't win.
What job would be my dream job?
Oh...Let me think...I have got it. THIS JOB is my dream job.. That is all that I want to do for the rest of my life. It is PURRRRRFECT for me.
I see myself in five years employed by you and happy at...you guessed it...THIS JOB. It is all that I have ever wanted to do.
Mistakes? Yeah. Sure. I have made a mistake. The mistake which I made was working at another job rather than THIS JOB.
If a Team Member was not doing his share I'd stay overtime and work his share for him because I just love THIS JOB.
HR is worse.
Did you really want that job? No?
Then why bother going through the motions?
is that where all the groundwater in california went?
these guys have the best anti-D's, the only problem is when you stop taking them.
Wait, aren't those high-capacity magazines?

One of the mandated pleasures on the good ship Lodge ZH has always been the daily visiting to the let it loose house of a rising Son. Huuum..yup! Blessings and Grace to you youngster and the people of the world who SEE moar and moar the reality in the big unreality. Here is what everybody knows below and as the players continue to act out their roles, it gets funnier and funnier as to just how stupid they are to continue the blame games, and idiotic false flagology drills to control the masses. Like, Jeepers Creepers, anything absolutely nutty can happen in this lunatic bin full of out of control banksters and warmongers deluxe.
This is a historic and powerful broadcast that should have gone on moar with the good Dr.

I recommend the Pasload propane nail gun for its go anywhere convenience....
Nail gun is so over done. Old school is back in style a Walther ppk in a bunker when you realize they are not worthy of your greatness
If only.
"No one owes you anything. I think...you need a shotgun blast, a kick in the ass, so paranoid...
Watch your back!!!" ;-)

SORRY TO JUMP IN HERE >>>>>BUT
Zerohedge has malware infections, so beware.
In two days I have had 6 malware attempts to infect my computer ( two caught by Security Essentials and four caught by Malwarebytes). If you don't have top malware/virus protection you will get infected.
A pal got it in his smart phone and computer, and seems to have also infected his BIOS system...now he must crash both. The last attempt to enter my system came on "REPLY" to comment with no links visable.
BEWARE of links posted in comments, this is how most get the transfere.
For info Google: "zerohedge infected malware virus" and you will see this is no joke.
I have written to Zerohedge about this.
Still clicking on links? Did the girl in the picture have a nice looking rack?
sir...you are a tacty jackass who can not read what is plainly stated infront of you.
So much fun to believe you are the clever boy at the party.
BEWARE of links posted in comments...
Using firefox and rightclicking to "open in new tab" when chasing links posted by other dweebs usually keeps potential infectous diseases at bay. Chasing links in already open tabs can be lethal. But you're right, sometimes the only way to rid yourself of an Ebola is 3 finger saluting and a call to the NSA.
jmo.
These bankster types are all wimps. Ben has a 23 guage micro pin gun and Jamie goes for roofing nails? Don't forget to hook up the air to those girlie-man guns!
No shit. A finish nailer and a roofing coil nailer. Need to hook them boyz up with a real nailer. http://www.sears.com/hitachi-power-tools-pneu-frame-strip-nailer-3/p-SPM...
3-1/4" X .131" ring shank nails get the job done.
Make sure he hooks it up to the compressor - about 110 psi should work. I can make sure it's on good.
pNaw, 90 psi is fine for flesh and bone - went thru a glove and finger on me once. 110 is for hardie plank, and not even Jamie's head is that hard.
OTOH, maybe 110 just to be really sure, and press hard enough to make it at least a double.
(Folks who have spent time with nail guns know what I'm talkin' about.)
how about 150 psi so jamie can have a double penetration?
His cancer should claim him first.

He and his buddies are the cancer.
