> [@Quattro Krant](#): > > Was that the place on the 2nd floor with all the hats by the escalators? i think you’re thinking of Against All Odds. Steve & Barry’s is the place that sells everything for under $7.99 or something like that. And sell the Starbury shoes. Basically Footlocker for poor people. ---

I used to work at DHL so did my mom, they have been under the weather for quite some years now. There was always talk about them shittin the bed it was just a matter of time. Funny thing is not too long after I left they moved into a brand new warehouse cause the one they were located in was a shit hole and you froze ur ass off. ---

DHL makes me sad. They were the shit compared to UPS or FedEx. I would fuck up my laptop and call dell to get replacement parts at like 1 or 2 AM, and they would be at my house the next day. ---

I can’t tell you the last time I ate at one… Even the new KFC/Taco Bell combo restaurants are disgusting. These are brand new restaurants that are absolutely terrible. The last time I was in one, the manager was fighting with one of the workers about showing up on time, and made us wait to take our order while she swore at the girl. ---

😢 Praxair. No not really, but we have been told that our 4Q sucked so hard that we have to avoid all unnecessary spending in 1Q09, everything from unnecessary conferences to unnecessary office supplies. Methinks our profit sharing check will be near zero. :tdown: ---
