Was just about to come in here and give a big f yeah to our lord and savior Beavis Christ!

 

Poll questions: what are your least favorite and most favorite Thanksgiving dish items?

I'll go first.

Least favorite, ambrosia salad. I really want to know who eats this crap and actually likes it?

Most favorite, Giblet gravy. Because without the gravy, nothing else comes together.

Close second to most favorite, Cranberry sauce. But only the jellied kind, like I used to eat growing up in the trailer park.

 

Most favorite: Roasted turkey, stuffing, mashed potato's and gravy. Don't really have these dishes often.

Least favorite: Don't really have one. My spread for Thanksgiving is usually pretty basic as it's just me and what I am in the mood for/have the energy to cook for myself.

 

I despise cranberry anything.

Not a turkey fan either. Much prefer ham.

Love the canned yams, but hate candied yams.

 

Not sure what ambrosia salad is but I probably wouldn't like it.

Least: dry turkey breast, all the jello dishes.

Favorite: homemade stuffing and real cranberry sauce cooked with booze. My dad's spiral ham covered in his brown sugar/mustard glaze with cloves and cherries on it.

 

My great aunt would always bring ambrosia salad, I’d just pick off all the cherries and eat those! She was also the aunt who would give my mom a fruit cake every year at Xmas

this year we’re doing ribs and a breast

edit: I guess it was Waldorf salad actually but still a weird old lady dish

 

Least Fav: Sweet yams and anything with a crap-ton of onions. Phuk onions
Most Fav: Everything else.

 

Never seen that one...I could actually like that

 

Todays flavor

 

That's the one I usually get at my local grocery store. Haven't seen the grape flavored one in any of the places I shop.

 

fav - honey baked ham...pieces with the crust on it.

least - green bean casserole.

 

You must suffer like the rest of us.
It was rough being a child of the 60s and 70s..



It's a terrible creamy SWEET fruit salad.

 

It's amazing how much time and effort people spend trying to avoid their job. Completely normal for someone to waste 60 minutes instead of doing a 10 minute job.

I'll share a story...We have a guy at work that cannot do his job to save his life. My group will help him create a work package (cuz we know most of the info, but not all of it) and then it's his responsibility to fill in the details (from other experts) and adjust as necessary as the package gets reused for different customers. It really is that easy. About six months ago I got irritated at him b/c he kept asking my team to review his very minor changes. This was after about four months of hand-holding...cuz I try to be a team player as much as possible. He didn't like me telling him to own it and a bunch of other ego fluff stuff like "You've got this; you know this work now".

A day later the most senior person in his group (not a lead, but basically a lead) called me into a conf room and tried to con me into always editing this asshat's work. Now, this lead guy is very smart and he and I had been on good terms for over a decade. I looked him straight in the eyes and said "No, this is your team. You teach dummy to do his job, you edit dummy's work and you keep him from wasting my group's time b/c we're not staffed or trained to edit the overall package." The lead guy got all flustered and then I said "am I wrong?"...he agreed I wasn't...but basically didn't say anything to me until he retired a few weeks ago.

Hilarious crap...

 

^ This guy gets it..

 

Gawd...I can still taste that chit. So sweet and pointless that even kids didn't like it.

 

That looks amazing

 

I should add

fav. Sweet potato casserole with pecans. And thick to the point it could pass for pecan pie

pie…. Most any kind. Key lime 1st choice

 

A little off-topic, but it's still business.
My place of employment used to be professional drivers and management that were proud to be there..
Employees that took some pride in the company name and reputation.

There are few and far between with that attitude these days.
It has turned into doing as little as possible just to keep your name off management and upper management shit lists.

I do what is expected of me and go above and beyond at times, but no one knows it.
I'm fine with that.
But it is a shame to see what this company is now compared to what it was even 10 years ago, not to mention 30 years ago.
Jim Casey would not be proud of what is has become, but I guess it's like that in any business these days..



Oops...
UPS will pay $45 million in fines with SEC settlement

They never should have bought Overnight Freight.
They only did it to keep up with FedEx Freight.
UPS freight was never a money making investment..

I guess they'll be ok...



I'm gonna get back to posting fun stuff...
