50 Jobs, 50 States, 50 Weeks
April 18th, 2009Greetings fellow Bizarros:
Everybody knows the economy is in the toilet right now and
unemployment numbers have been creeping up. But if you are
looking to pad your resume with a little bit of variety in
your work history you might want to listen to this young
man who recently got fed up with the job market.
A University of Southern California graduate says he is in
week 30 of his effort to work 50 jobs in 50 states within
the span of 50 weeks.
Daniel Seddiqui, 27, said he conceived of his job-hopping
scheme after becoming frustrated with trying to find em-
ployment in the current job market.
“I was just tired of employers telling me to call in three
weeks,” he said.
Seddiqui said his jobs so far have included caring for race-
horses in Kentucky, coordinating weddings in Las Vegas,
working pit crew for Panther Racing in Indianapolis and as
a border patrol agent in Arizona. This week he is working
at recording studio Sound Kitchen in Nashville.
“This was my dream,” Seddiqui said. “I wanted to go to every
state. As a kid, I stared at maps and I still do. Now, I’m
doing this in real life, even though it’s the hardest time
to find jobs.”
Bizarrely,
Lewis

——– Official says honorary toilet a bit much ———
GNOSJO, Sweden – An official in the Swedish town of Gnosjo
says a municipality tradition of honoring an employee’s
25 years of service went too far with a toilet purchase.
Stefan Nilsson, Gnosjo human resources head, said the town
should change its practice of allowing employees to choose
any item worth as much as the traditional gold watch in
honor of 25 years of faithful service, The Local said
Friday. “I, and many like me, think that the purpose (of
the loose policy) has gotten a little out of hand,” Nilsson
said. The local official was reacting to an unidentified
Gnosjo employee’s decision to purchase a new toilet for
himself on his employment anniversary. For Nilsson, the
concept of a loyal employee thinking of Gnosjo while using
the bathroom item is not a palatable idea. “A memorial
gift should be something you remember,” he told the Local.
“Is someone supposed to sit on a new toilet and think back
on their years with Gnosjo municipality?” For future
honorary gifts, Nilsson suggests necklaces, bracelets or
even a nice crystal vase.
———— Ga. city reverses karaoke ban ————–
LILBURN, Ga. – An Atlanta suburb has brought back karaoke,
allowing restaurants once more to lure customers with
sing-alongs, darts, pool and trivia contests. The Lilburn
council banned “interactive entertainment” at establish-
ments that serve alcohol two years ago. The action came
amidst a controversy over a specific restaurant, which has
since closed. “Lilburn has matured, and we want to keep
it vibrant,” Mayor Diana Preston told The Atlanta Journal
Constitution. “Our focus is keeping our business community
strong and that means a diversity of businesses.” The
council revised its liquor law again Tuesday. Bob Carmen,
owner of the Oyster Barn Grill & Bar said he thought the
ban was “provincial.” But he said he does not plan to
bring back the karaoke machines and other entertainment
paraphernalia that the previous owner removed in 2007.
Instead he says his focus is to lure customers with his
food.

——— Woman, 86, made burglary suspect cry ———-
TREHARRIS, Wales – Police in Wales said an 86-year-old
woman used her metal crutch to beat a 26-year-old burglary
suspect to tears and forced him to sit and wait for
officers. Gwyneth Davies, who is recovering from pneumonia,
broken ribs and a hip fracture, told police she was on her
way to bed when she discovered the man in her kitchen, The
Sun reported. Davies said she struck the man four times
with her metal crutch and ordered him to sit on a stool
in her kitchen while she called the authorities. “I lashed
out. He was bent over the worktop pretending to cry,”
Davies said. “It was better than going to the pictures.
The police arrived and asked if I was all right. I said,
‘You’re asking the wrong one!’” Detective Constable Justin
Noble said police officers were impressed with Davies.
“She’s my new heroine,” he said. The suspect was arrested
and charged with burglary.

Office romances aren’t just for the young. At the last place
I worked at there are a couple of women “in their 40s” (that
I commonly refer to as bar hounds), that do their best to
keep guys morals up “as well as other things”. I worked in
assembly maintenance on nights and we kept the oil for the
ATV transmissions on the north mezzanine. It got to the point
to where I was hesitant to grab another tote of oil for the
temporary blindness I might suffer. No doubt something TZ
would jump at but some of us do have standards…..lol
[Mmmm...when I think of hot, steamy sex the first thing I
think of is transmission oil.]
This is a great question of: Why can’t everyone drive golf
carts? The real question we should be asking is: Why doesn’t
everyone drive golf carts? If we can solve that problem
instead of laying on the guilt trip maybe something will
change. As my coworker just said, “Stop talking about
problems and start talking about solutions.” -John
[If you're not part of the solution you're part of the
problem. How long have you been driving your golf cart?]
Feed the girl meat – explains why my home made but tasty
biscotti failed with the gal at work. -Steve.
[Try slipping her your canoli.]
Lewis, if meat doesn’t work, try spicing up your sex life
with some biting. My husband LOVES when I bite him, a
little pain…..a quick response, he’s ready to play! I
discovered this unusual reaction by accident, I was trying
to be mean, retaliating for a lost wrestling match. SCHWING!
Now it’s a useful tool. -Kris
[Wow! Thanks for that little peak into your bedroom, or
private dungeon, or wherever that stuff takes place. How
does your husband explain the bite marks all over his body?]
