What the hell? What is the point of this thread? Really, this happened to you and you were all thinking to yourself "Oh man! I got to post this on Apolyton! It's like a string bet in poker but in real life! I can't wait to see what these chumps at Apolyton have to say about it. It'll probably go over some of their dimwitted heads though."

Oh, I just remembered. I walked into my boss' office yesterday and accidentally discovered she was asleep. She woke up and apologized, and I told her not to worry about it. I could totally use this to climb the corporate ladder, couldn't I?Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.

I guess the thing to be proud about is the subtlety of the manuever. I negotiated a nice raise last year after matter of factly stating I was looking at other, higher paying jobs."I hope I get to punch you in the face one day" - MRT144, Imran Siddiqui

I got a huge raise in my first year at my first job, because I didn't like it too much and I was open about how I was being treated, etc. The client really liked me and didn't want to train someone new, so they threw money at me to get me to stay."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate.

This is especially true in KH's world."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
