  9. Up to my shoulder. on The Absolute Worst Working Environment? · · Score: 3, Funny

    I work for a small town maintance dept. One of the task was to monitor a sewage lift station. Once a month or so the trash pump would get bound up with rubbers and tampon strings. The only way to free the pump was to reach in up to the shoulder and pull it free. I told my supervisor where he could purchase shoulder length gloves.

  10. My only phone on FCC Still Pushing for Number Portability on Nov. 24 · · Score: 1

    My cell phone is my only phone because I was tired of the local bell charging me for every time I moved. With a cell phone I just move no calling the company to move the line, no getting billed extra for the move, no having to take off work to be at the house between 12:00 and 5:00 and I can keep the same number just about any where. With this if the coverage is bad when I move again I can find a provider that has better coverage for a fee though but I can live with that.
