I don't know what bothers me more. That I currently have no life, or that I can prove it mathematically?

I guess I'll have a beer and try not to do math. One never wants to drink and derive.

Or:

Me, the guy who drinks that beer.
Fa, a long way to go for beer.
So, I'll have another beer.
La, I'll have another beer.
Tea, no thanks, I'm drinking beer.
Which brings us back to

Not sure about the intelligence thing, but you definitely get my vote for most arrogant post ever. Sigh.

I'd like to nominate myself for the Most Intelligent poster. Since I'm the only one here really qualified to decide who the winner is, I'll just give this award to myself.

The award for the Least Intelligent Poster is a draw and will be thus awarded to everyone but me.

Now, did the information packet come with a snip from "Focus on Family"? That would be some funny shit if it did. At least you'd know who the trust sides with. Seriously though.

On Air Mikisew and Fort McMurray: Is the cost of living in Fort McMurray high? There is no question that it is. Is 11.50 per hour low? Air Mikisew has to compete with airlines in Edmonton, Calgary, Fort Smith. Taco Time on Franklin pays $13 per hour but only has to compete with the folks in the Pete...

If they can't find somebody they'll offer $12.50. Simple! If somebody takes the job- that's the market rate . Unfortunately Dockjock, you are right.

There is actually a great lack of respect for people who work at Tim Horton's. Some folks here think that they're better than their fellow human. To think that is ignorant to the extreme.
