Basicly started off saying that street racers are encuraged to legally race at sac raceway but the racers were complaining about being targeted when they leave.

The cops said they catch people racing (also mention bikes doing wheelies) when they leave.

At the end of the segment the reporter said that they saw many cars doing burnouts on the way out.


So are 'we' just getting what we deserve....again?

Are you obligated to maintain the current ever-changing standard or are you fine as long as it met the standards when it was built?

Yes. People are getting busted for street racing and exhibition of speed. This isn't the usual tint/plate/exhaust harassment.

If you do anything that requires a building permit- anything at all- you must bring your entire site up to current ADA specs.

I didn't see the segment, last night was actually the first time I was in bed before 11pm in as long as I can remember.

Anyway, Sac raceway is always warning people that you should NOT drive like a jack *** on Excelsior when leaving the raceway because you're going to bring unwanted attention from the police. Citizens will inevitably complain and the 5-0 will come own your ***.

Well, the anticipated push back on my attempt to advance is beginning. Upper management is voicing concerns about the impact that my current department would suffer if I were to move to another department. It's nice that they like me and acknowledge the extreme amount of *** that I kick, but it sucks that my bad-assness is potentially going to prevent my ability to be promoted.

We'll see - the hiring manager is fighting for me and I've got more interviews tomorrow.

Apply Zero Sum theory. Explain that the reduced Sonic-ness of your current department is balanced out by the increased Sonic-ness of your new one. also, you will improve upon your Sonic-ness by being a happier and more productive Sonic in your new position. In other words, explain to them that This Is Good For The Sonic. err, Company.

It sounds like what may happen is after they interview external applicants and I am picked as the best fit for the position, that they will say "well, that job done got took, but we have another one!" and try to back fill my position with someone. Then I'll spend a couple weeks transitioning (at which point I'll sub that person in for me on the oncall rotation) and then be golden.

Is this wrong?

My daughter's birthday is today & my wife placed a cake order at a grocery store.
My sister said she could pick it up.
Sister called me in a panic earlier, telling me that the cake wasn't made, as the order had been lost.

"No problem. See if there are any other unicorn cakes there." I replied.
"Yes, there's two."

"OK. Get the names/phone #/ whatever else is written on the tag & leave."

She complied & I went to the store.

Lady at the cake counter: "May I help you?"
"Hi, I'm Mr Smith, ph# 555-1212. I'm here to pick up my Unicorn cake."

"Here's you cake Mr Smith."


I'm so going to hell.
