A facebook chat with an eventual girlfriend.

To give a bit of background, this conversation happened a few days after we met in person when my band played on a TV show and she was in the studio audience. A few days later I sent her a flyer to our next show on myspace and she said something along the lines of "I dare you to send me a flyer again". I went on to flood her page with flyers. And then...

Can I? Oh good. Just send them UPS overnight.

So I hear. The word on facebook is I've been tagged. Which makes me it. Which sucks. Cause tag bags are frowned upon.

Where do you work?

tag bags... ha ha.

i work at PGM Inc. it a phone survey place. it's lame-o but i actually like it a lot there. i have worked there so long that they love me and i would have to try really hard to get fired. i can do anythng there haha. but yeah, i just barely realized i dont even have to work on friday when you guys play so i dont need to worry about the time.

where do you work?

Tag bags. Its like a tag back but instead of tagging someone, you smack em with a bag of fruits or potatoes (depending on the season). That or I cant spell.

What do you do then? What exactly gets surveyed? Why did you lie to me earlier about you working friday?

I start working at Barnes and Noble on Thursday. Ive been usless and unemployed for a bit now. Sad really.

barnes and noble eh? that seems like it would be a cool job. i love books.


right now i'm doing a customer satisfaction survey for a home warranty company. its pretty easy. i didn't lie! i thought i had to.... but i dont, YAY

being unemployed is the best, except for the lack of money. thats terrible.

do you have any messenger of sorts? msn? aim?

Im hoping it will be. I hate retail. But maybe itll be ok selling something I like. And the discount is good. And i hate real jobs in general so its ok I spose.

Do you get people yelling at you for calling them? Whats the meanest thing a person has done?

I had msn long ago. Then i retired it. Turned to the dark side of text messaging. hehe. Which can be done by texting "Knitted Hats" to 801-898-9045.

people do get mad. they think we are selling something or they are busy and just dont want to talk. i had one guy yell an extremely long line of swear words at me for trying to do a survey with his grandma once. its usually not bad. it just sucks they insult you personally haha

I worked for Direct TVs call center before tour but quit before we actually started making calls so i didnt get to deal with mean people.

Guess the moral of your storie is to not talk to peoples grandmoms.




At this point I assume we went on to text messages. In case you are curious, we went on to date for 7 months or so and then she got engaged a month after we broke up. The end.
