Once upon a time in America there was a band called the Dead Kennedys. “Too Drunk to Fuck” was the first record I ever bought by them. Much more recently, Nouvelle Vague (not from America) did a bossa nova cover. I think technically this is Camille’s a capella cover of the Nouvelle [...]

One of the advantages of living in Buffalo is that we are in sthe reception area for Toronto’s 102.1 radio station. It is/was the Lovely Lettuce’s favie station. And I think it is pretty good in an psuedo-alternative sort of way.
Any old way, I digress. A few days ago, [...]

Last week, I got an email from the RGIS corporate gods that included this tidbit of information:
On June 27, 2009 the Average Per Hour (APH) Standards will be raised in several of our accounts. More than half of our teams are already operating at levels that meet or exceed the “New” APH Standards, so raising [...]

Our district has finally gotten around to distributing the March 2009 Team Member Handbook. In order to continue my employment with RGIS, I have to sign the “RGIS Team Member Handbook: Acknowledgement of Receipt” form. The Cliff Note Version: RGIS can do whatever they want and I can’t do a damn thing about [...]
