  • At an old job when I was still in high school, I requested off for a school event that I was traveling out of town for. The scheduling manager still put me on a shift for the day I was supposed to come back, and I told him about it. His exact words to me were “just don’t come in, and if anyone asks tell them I said not to.” And that’s exactly what happened.

    The day I was scheduled to work when I got back, I didn’t go in. It also happened to be the new FoH manager’s first weekend there, and so that immediately soured her towards me. Literally from that moment until I stopped working there, she tried her best to get me in trouble for anything.





  • Having only watched a couple episodes of Firefly and the movie Serenity, I wouldn’t say “better” but different.

    Serenity/Firefly is slightly softer sci-fi, while I’d say The Expanse is fairly hard sci-fi. Expanse, at least in the books, they actually go weeks and months in space between stops and make it a point to tell you; while from what I remember in Serenity they treat going to another planet as going on a couple days road trip.
