标 题: 2.11挖车记-感谢热心的邻居和送盐的伙伴
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Tue Feb 11 17:23:00 2014, 美东)
车被冻住了,昨天好心的同事送我回家帮我挖车,结果铲子断了。那个雪,真是
rockyhard啊!
被吓到了,对于一个过去不开车的孩子,哪里经历过这种事儿。
终于清干净了轮子,发动,但是一直原地打滑。
发了贴(参见本版高楼),咨询了各路达人。无奈没有铲子没有盐,中午,好容易盼来
了善良小伙伴的盐,无奈小伙伴急着送盐,从公司的盐罐子拿的,正直的小伙伴只拿了
一点点,撒了周边而不是轮胎底下。。。
于是只能等盐的威力化雪了!
对于一个轻微强迫症的急性子,总觉得不是事儿。下午各路明明不帮忙人士各种虚假的
过来问车出来没有,不堪骚扰的我于是下去看,发现离化开甚远,于是决定借助人力,
拿起邻居铲子继续铲,铲啊铲,铲到胳膊算了,后背出汗,铲到车底下时候,上一次铲
车蹭掉漆的惨案浮现在眼前,姐犹豫了。。。
此时,对面小哥回家了,pull... 阅读全帖 |

发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Thu Jun 5 12:20:51 2014, 美东)
我曾经觉得郁闷的是,我公司的老板有点control freak。
当年,下大雪,大家无法上班了。我只好在家工作。结果,收到他给所有员工的信,说:
"make sure you work the hours, and not count the shovel time"
铲雪的时间不能算在工作时间里。我靠,你说,对于我这种做编程,脑力劳动的,是时
间能衡量的吗?
我知道,他这信主要是针对零售店的员工说的,但,我听着就是不舒服。委屈啊。
不过,anyhow, suck it up吧。我觉得美国人说的这个词很好,suck it up, 生活没有

跟同事一起用餐要注意最基本的餐桌礼仪:
- 口里有食物时不要说话,吞了再说话。(don't talk with your mouth full)
- 嚼食物时要关闭嘴 (chew with your mouth closed)
- 不要大声打嗝
Keep these basic behaviors in mind as you eat:
1. Chew with your mouth closed.
2. Avoid slurping, smacking, and blowing your nose.
3. Don’t use your utensils like a shovel or as if you’ve just stabbed the
food you’re about to eat.

Given avalanche dangers the shovel, of course, is standard gear at this time

out a kitchen has already been mentioned and is highly recommended and
necessary if you are exposed to the wind.
Also if you are using a 3 season tent you should use the snow from digging
your tent platform to build up walls around your tent (minimum 4 feet). The
