OAC News

[LetMeWork]

I "had a few", made a few posts, being baited along by you. The next morning, being horrified at what I had posted, I deleted it. I really do care about other people. I was just using "Mr. Spock" logic, and getting way too personal. I hope that STAP survives, but I see a pattern. They know that we are vulnerable, and are taking full advantage. I have a long memory, and I hope that when the opportunity comes, and the shoe is on the other foot, we stick it to them GOOD.

This is at least the third time I have seen you spewing nonsense on this forum and then deleting your posts, blaming the sauce and apologizing. You should quit drinking or quit posting or quit both!

in vino veritas

Stop blaming the booze Mel, it doesn't change your beliefs, it just makes you more likely to show your true self!

:blah:

Story about the Edge, looks like Ford listened to one of their engineers on quality.

Also says Edge will start at about 25K in the US, that should make it very competitive.

Good Luck Oakville!

Thank You!

Great article.

"Ford asked her to take a hard look at a new crossover it was developing called the Ford Edge. Trained on the vaunted Toyota quality system, Hanley pored over the Edge and found more than 70 significant issues and hundreds of minor concerns."

Only 70 significant issues?

Maybe she should take a look at the Freestar!!! ... or should have.

I am not Mel. You got the wrong guy. It is easy to condemn. We all have issues. I could rub your face in the dirt if I wanted to. What would it prove? That I am smarter than you? I already know that. Just kidding.

 

In vino veritas? I already said that I stand by my posts. I just wish that I didn't post so much. Whatever; and as they say,"alea iacta est", and I have to live with it.

Why don't we not let talk of yesterday's posts and my mediocre guitar playing overshadow some good news, and let's get back to actual OAC news.

Excellent idea from a voice of reason. As for the guitar, love the Strat...just bought an Adamas 12 string myself.

I was making a joke about Mel Gibson.

 

Genius

 

And don't start talking tough. Rubbing my face in the dirt.... What makes you so sure that you could do that "if you wanted to"? A handful have tried but my face is still clean.

I think I have already seen in some of your drunken ramblings about people meeting you at your truck in the parking lot??? Maybe a yellow truck? Maybe I have the wrong guy.

I can't check because all your posts get edited after you sober up.

Reply as you will I am finished talking to you.

I will now stick to the business of this forum and that article does look like great news! :happy feet:

[nphorizon]

absolutely pointless posts: guitars, mel gibson, viagara.

waste my time.

"Aquila non captat muscas." The eagle does not catch flies? Good one!!

My .12 guage can take out an eagle, but for the sake of saving the species, I will not shoot.

Quod incepimo conficiemo.

 

I was speaking figuratively about "rubbing your face in the dirt". I meant in writing. If you accost me at my yellow truck, because you can't beat me on the keyboard, then I will have to deal with that. I hope that it doesn't happen.

Sometimes you have to use your brains. Sometimes you have to use your fists. The former is much less painful.

Mel Gibson & blue pills maybe but guitars ..never. It's human nature to get off topic now and again. It might even be good to get off topic but uppercuts and knee drops .. LOL

Posting threats of screwing the company is probably not the wisest thing to do when our plant is only officially at 1/3 capacity.

 

 

 

 

Publicly, at least.

[gulik]

I just want to keep you people entertained. What do you think about the new round of cuts that is being proposed? I know that we have no choice but to eat all of the shit now. When things turn around, we will show no mercy. They screwed us to the greatest extent. We will do the same to them.

What new rounds of cuts???

[MKX 4 Life]

Since the Union will not return my phone calls (repeated messages), and there never seems to be anyone in the Union office to answer the phone, perhaps someone can help me cyberspace. I am one of the laid off workers. My EI has run out. I am now receiving all my moneyvia the SUB plan. I was just wondering if I was to get a full-time job (above-table), what, if anything would happen to my SUB pay. Thanks.

[Bluecon]

What are you guys thinking?

 

Make the launch a success or die.

If the Edge launch messes up who pays the greatest price?

You're not playing tiddlewinks.

[The last time that I was in a fight, even the bouncers ran and hid. The place got busted up pretty good. The other guy got away, after I knocked him down, jumped on his ribs with my knees, and gave him two uppercuts. That was after he did a good number on me. Since he started the whole thing, no charges were laid. A stripper looked after my swollen eye, and I refused to ID the other guy to the cops. He was my boss, I was laid off from Ford at the time. The next day, I went to work as usual, and my boss was still friends with me. He is from Nova Scotia, too. We are all crazy]

Oh Wow. Thats so COOL.

 

Idiot.

You're right. I deleted it. It is just that it is such a soap opera, and so predictable.

I can't disagree with you there. I hope that I have smartened up since that time in my life, but it was pretty cool.

I get it. MY ancesters have been here since way before Confederation. It is you socialists who do not get it. If you come here, you have lots of opportunity, but you have to look after yourself. We have forgotten that, and are now looking after them. Many are now coming for free handouts. It has to stop.

I keep telling myself not to reply to your posts, that this is not what this forum is for but I just cannot help myself. (Somewhat like you when you combine alcohol and your keyboard).

NO! You don't get it!

My point was that OACville, after reading your juvenile, asinine post about your bar fights (I think you watch too many movies), posted " Oh Wow. That's so COOL. Idiot" Then you replied " I can't disagree with you there. I hope that I have smartened up since that time in my life, but it was pretty cool". The point is that he meant it is NOT COOL. So you are disagreeing with him. You try to appear as a learned person yet you miss the simple sarcasm in a six word reply to one of your numerous posts. The power of your intellect is staggering to us mere mortals. Please tell us more about the evils of Immigration you alluded to in your post.

(When you are using a search engine to learn the meaning of the words with more than two syllables in my post you can find yourself some more Latin phrases).

Word is 10 hours next week. I was told they want another two thousand Edge, MKX FEUs. I really don't think anyone gives a rats ass about your fighting (or lack there of ) skills. Keep the forum to OAC information please!

[OAC_Sparky]

In my experience in managing a large internet forum (although not as large as this one), the problem with removing the "off-topic, non-core-discussion" section is that these posts tend to migrate to the "on-topic, core-discussion" sections.

 

The people that tend to monopolize these Off-Topic and Spam sections do so because they crave attention, and will go to great lengths to get it, even if it means spamming other parts of the forum.

 

Looks like I nailed that one. Don't know if I should be happy or not.

This post may contain violence. Viewer discression advised.

 

We are at a bar after work. My boss is not drinking, but giving me lots of drinks. I figure thay I had about 18 beers. He keeps making cracks. He is after revenge for me beating up his brother. Finally I tell him to FO. I am watching the show, and he suckers me in the left eye. I turn to face him, and he flips the table. I go down, grab the table and pull it away, and he boots me in the face. I get on my feet, and two people grab my arms. He gives me another shot. I break away and grab him by the throat, and pound him mercilessly. I am afraid that I am going to kill him, so I release his throat. He puts up a good fight, getting me in a clutch, and pounding the back of my head. I break free, and knock him down with a right. I get on him, and give it to him good, until someone pulls me off.

 

As far as I can tell, the only thing your posts have to do with OAC, is to make us (union labor) look like idiots. WTF are you talking about this crap for? Actually never mind just shut up!
