I am a short end of the stick...

Dude, check out what my sister saw in downtown earlier this week...

It ran right into a Rite Aid. She and her coworker had to run to avoid it and the debris that got thrown out.

And there she is, validating that she was there, he he he. Man, she encounters the craziest stuff sometimes...

I was here first!!!
You know, seniority has it's ups and definitely has it's downs as well. The grandfather rule at a blackjack table...bitchin. Seniors getting special priveleges(like off-campus lunch, or free period) in high school...dope. There are a bunch of other things, which do not presently come to mind, but I know there are. However, seniority DOES suck sometimes. Like with promotions and stuff like that. I just don't think it's fair that in certain situations, one individual gets a promotion over another based on seniority(longevity) rather than merit. It does not serve as very good motivation for the more ambitious and eager people to move up, because they know that the likelihood of moving up is slim to none if there are other people ahead in line, that have been there longer. I just do not and can not agree that seniority wins over merit. That means that a more deserving individual can get the proverbial shaft just because they haven't been there long enough. Even if it was me that was up for a step up and someone that hasn't been here that long got it because they deserved it, then that should send me a message that I need to work my arse of a little harder. Anyway, yeah, seniority sucks.

And lastly...
as ifdriving w/ your cell phone wasn't bad enough
