auto mechanics lie when working on your car. its more about the money after they finish the job and look for more problems. they get paid flat rate so the more work more money

yeah, and looking back on my post let me insert this caveat: he's reasonably successful now, and I do like his concept on the cashflow quadrant, but his beginnings are decidedly murky, his whole 'rich dad, poor dad' story is garbage and has never been proven and has lots of holes in it if you care to look. my point of naming him is that his beginnings were definitely murky, but as someone is sure to point out, he's richer than anyone on this board and he's hobnobbing with donald trump, so good for him.

While this is true, isn't it dependent on the sale timeline of the individual chain? IE a Food Lion which runs advertisements with a Tuesday-Monday night, final markdowns on overstock and out of date goods will be made by Monday before the new ads goods are put to the shelves that night?

Also, there are tremendous downsides to shopping on Saturday mornings, especially if you live in a community with Seniors. These old bags will swarm, snailing their way about the store, getting in the self checkout lines to prove they still have it, and all the ancient and dying employees of the store are wheeled out to pity you into stopping for free samples. Lines are filled with coupon clippers, etc.

Upside of one of these experiences is that it really feels like Bullet-time from Max Payne or the Matrix.

Never worked there, but numerous experiences at different locales has convinced me that if you and your friends are low on cash and bored at night, the modern day carny show is Wal-Mart Supercenter in a Suburban/semi-rural area.
Just remember, as you gaze into the abyss, it gazes also into you.

I read all 27 pages and every post. I'm tired, but this was a great thread and fuck sleep anyway.

The only scam that used to work when I delivered pizzas was as follows: We used company cars, so we filled up with gas when the tank was below 1/2. No one kept track of this. So what we did was go into the gas station and pay $20 worth of gas and get the receipt. I'd go and pump $10 and go back and get the second receipt and my $10, put that in my pocket and give them the first receipt when I cashed out at the end of the night. Not a big scam, but useful when I needed money for weed or something.

Also, if you want free shit almost ANYWHERE just complain. You'll get it.

And come time for a rave, holy shit thats the jackpot right there. If you have the right dealer, you can get each pill for around 3 or 4 dollars. Come to the rave when people are getting desperate for ecstacy, and you can jack up the prices to 15, and if theyre desperate enough 20 dollars. My friend went to Monster Massive with around 100 pills and came home with around 1200 that night.

Good money for a teenager if you ask me, but gets shitty when you have to actually support yourself unless you start slangin by the pound

true. should have said "pot" dealers.

Professor: I can write a book on this. For one thing we rarely read your final paper or even grade your finals, unless you are a very close case, which means you are between grades. It's not that we don't care but that they do NOT give us enough time to turn the grades in. You might have even noticed that if you were doing great in a class, but bombed the final, your grade seems unaffected.

Here's another tip for college, and it's linked to the first one. You are much better off getting an A in the midterm or the first paper, and then slowly declining, than doing crappy at the beginning and working your way up. They say first impressions are key, and this is true in a class. If a student writes a kickass first paper Im likely to give them the benefit of the doubt all quarter because I see how well they can do. If a student does a crappy first paper, I might even be suspicious if the next one or last one is amazing, and will pay careful attention to the writing.

Also, we do talk to each other about mutual students, especially outstanding students or weird ones.

Also, you know annoying people in your classes? they annoy us too.

bartender: if you're drunk, you're getting watered down drinks. If you're really drunk, you are getting ones with almost no alcohol, and you will not know the difference.

there are a million things we can do to your drink if you piss us off. NEVER piss off or become belligerent with a bartender. Believe me, I'll stir your martini with my dick and watch you drink it if you mess with me.

About the professor one, I can agree with this. I did really well in my philo class for the first half (all A's on tests and papers) and then just totally dismissed the second half of the class. I handed in my final paper (25% of our final grade), which wasn't even checked for grammar, and I got an A on it. The class was huge, and I doubt the teacher even knew if I attended or not (I didn't usually). Still, thanks, Prof.

I also scored an A in my 2d design class for ONE project. All of my projects were legit, but he didn't even bother grading them. Then I had the same prof for life drawing and he gave me an A without out even reviewing my portfolio for that class. He was cool as shit, too.
