- Also, what we've gotten out of Sheffield this year is far and away more than I expected. -- nm - Tim Jul 16, 17:21 1
  - In Chicago that sentence would read "...what we've gotten out on Sheffield..." ;) -- nm - the liioulu with silver chains Jul 16, 17:26
- singled to second? - Guy Jul 16, 17:17 1
  - or infield hit. (dunno, I don't have television). -- nm - Tim Jul 16, 17:17

Unfortunately the majority of retail shrink is through employee theft. They have access and a degree of trust that customers never get. -- nm - TWuG Jul 16, 17:04 7
- Well, jsut have the employees work on some more plans to stop it. - the liioulu with silver chains Jul 16, 17:12 6
  - The best way to prevent customer theft is through attentive customer service. - TWuG Jul 16, 17:16 5
    - No I meant ..... -- (link) - the liioulu with silver chains Jul 16, 17:22 [Backboard]
    - Which requires staffing someone to potentially do that but of course they can't schedule over the hours they've been budgeted. - Tim Jul 16, 17:20 3
      - It isn't a straight "for $9 we could have prevented $2000 in theft." That would require knowing when the theft would occur and staffing for just that - TWuG Jul 16, 17:27 2
        
        Oh if only it was every three months. - Tim Jul 16, 17:33 1
        
        I've worked both sides - TWuG Jul 16, 17:38
Uh oh. Some work friends are starting to talk seriously about playing in the WSOP next year. -- nm - nubby, Astronauts champion Jul 16, 17:03 3

  - Not the Main Event, one of the smaller 1k ones. -- nm - nubby, Astronauts champion Jul 16, 17:07 1
    - Yeah, I was just looking at what's there. - Reagen Jul 16, 17:08

- Was that the one with the 21cm(?) drop? Did we ever figure that out? -- nm - MojaveMeg Jul 16, 17:09 1

- Ours isn't quite a record-breaking summer, but it's a damn nice one so far. - Dr.Vermin Jul 16, 17:01

    - ha. maybe she's getting eye surgery. -- nm - princes and paupers love mandy lane Jul 16, 17:00
  - ZELLWEGZILLA MUST EAT! - Beryllium Jul 16, 16:52
- It's just Renee on her couch eating bonbons. -- nm - Reagen Jul 16, 16:49

  - Never heard of him. I will have to download some of his material tonight. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 16, 16:59 1
    - I suspect you would like him a lot, actually. -- nm - Reagen Jul 16, 17:01
  - Yeah, I was going to guess him but I thought "nah, strictly cancon". -- nm - Subversive Jul 16, 16:49
- I have never heard of Jeff Dunham. -- nm - Subversive Jul 16, 16:46 15

    - *blank stare* -- nm - Subversive Jul 16, 16:48 9
      - Silence! I KEEEL YOU!\ -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 16, 16:56 1
        
        I like Jeff, but that character rubs me the wrong way. Overtly racist but hiding behind humor to avoid condemnation. -- nm - TWuG Jul 16, 17:05
      - here: Jeff DUN HAAAAAMMMMM dot COMMMMMM -- (link) - TWuG Jul 16, 16:50

        he won the second season of "america's got talent" - i think he's mostly a ventriloquist. -- nm - b. Jul 16, 16:51
  - I think I've heard the name Dunham (although who knows, I could be thinking of Fringe). I don't recognize fator or peters. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 16, 16:47
Rowan Atkinson. -- nm - Subversive Jul 16, 16:45 1
- I could see him being in the top 10 - and it would be absolutely deserved. Even top 5. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 16, 16:46
DL Hughley! Cedric the Entertainer! (nm) - musubi Jul 16, 16:45
Sinbad! - Subversive Jul 16, 16:44 6
- they should do a sequel to that movie where he played that guy and it had that kid -- nm - Beryllium Jul 16, 16:45 5
  - was it the one where he was sassy? -- nm - Reagen Jul 16, 16:46 4
    - There were other ones? -- nm - Subversive Jul 16, 16:48 2
      - I think he also wore flashy clothing. You know which one I mean. -- nm - Reagen Jul 16, 16:50 1
