>Working with jehovas' witlessness
>Having conversation about his religion and the bible
>He tells me that he believes the sky is actually holding up a massive body of water, and it opened up when god wanted to flood the world, and that's how noas' ark happened

>Just got framing job on monday
>Talking about the canadian prime minister today
>I mention that I'm not a fan of him because he censored scientists publishing something about the oil sands, mentioned the words 'global warming'
>This fifty year old fuck starts ranting about how it's all bullshit and the carbon tax they want to impose is all a conspiracy and all this other stupid shit

He's right about the carbon tax and cap and trade schemes, bullshit meant to enrich politicians and their financers, not to save the earth.

Apart from embezzling scandals, aren't taxes that are collected documented?

I'm pretty fucking jealous, not gonna lie.
I've only ever worked with idiots.

If everyplace you work only has idiots working there, doesn't that make it likely that you yourself are an idiot?

In a physics 101 class. Proff showing how a car that is pushed in space will keep going forever (just getting to Newton's first law...I know). Guy raises his hand interrupts proff "so we're assuming the car is in a total vacuum?" Proff looks at him with a, are you totally fucking with me? look, realizes this kid is indeed serious and goes "yeah, we're in deep outer space, c'mon" and continues speedily along. Maybe you had to hear my proff's tone of voice, but I trying to stifle a laugh for a good 2 minutes.

I'm an idiot when it comes to life choices.
But not when it comes to knowledge, let alone basic knowledge.
I also always impress the foremans I work for because I learn the jobs I do really fast (Nothing impressive, it's all easy as fuck if you have common sense and a work ethic).
