Despite how good it was, it was still a full size sedan in a world buying crossovers and pickups. The place I worked for in the early 90's was a freight forwarder - HEC's volume literally was the most valuable account of any business either coming into or out of Australia. And the sales rep that landed that basically got a 1.3 MILLION dollar bonus without a single second's worth of discussion by the finance dept - "Oh they landed the HEC account? The bonus will be that much? Ummm.... sure, and we'll throw in some hookers and as much booze as they want too" True story that last part too. Sales person literally got 20 grand worth of the best alcohol and was balls deep in escorts for the next week. Like the CEO cared. Also true story - sales rep also landed John Holland, Caterpillar and a couple of other major ones off the back off the volume shipping discounts we could negotiate just due to the HEC volume value. Whatever they paid that sales rep was worth every cent many times over

BigPaddy posted:Isn't that the standard measurement in Oz? Yes very much so. And it's a common saying so getting wound up about that is silly. There's much worse to be bothered about frankly. AvE did some other quite clear Libertarian fuckwittery rant a few months ago which is when I drew the line and noped out. Dont remember what it was but it really showed what a complete fuckwit he really is. quote:I've always said that Republicans are evil and Democrats are incompetent. This is a less divisive statement of that view. And that is about the truest statement about US politics ever said

casque posted:"A riot is the language of the unheard." Black People took a knee in a silent PEACEFUL protest and plenty of white people lost their loving minds starting from the Orange racist-in-chief. Gee I wonder why there's a goddamn riot when yet another POC is murdered by a cop? White protest : "We cant get a haircut!!!" Black protest : "We dont want to be loving shot while jogging!"

jonathan posted:AvE is pretty cool. I like him. He's well traveled and intelligent. I dont give one iota of a drat how far he has travelled or how intelligent he appears to be. Start ranting about some of the libertarian stupidity like he does then he can gently caress off. Elviscat posted:There's a Facebook post out there that shows a bunch of Whites rioting and burning poo poo 'cause City Name Sports Team won/lost, I really wouldn't be offended if POC wanted to burn most of this country to the ground based on the offenses they've seen. TBH the conditions are seriously ripe for some unrestrained social breakdown, what with a lot of actual justified fury at how people have been screwed over by the rich and now unemployment exploding (what is it up to now? 44 million?) as frankly how poo poo the economy actually is gets ruthlessly exposed and the virus that triggered the economy vomiting is currently racking up a huge death toll runs rampant esp amongst the poor.

The more you read about the explosion happening in the USA right now, the more jaw dropping it is just how the police just don't loving get it and also the poo poo they are doing to provoke loving riots. Way to go assholes to inflame the situation even more! Stay safe if you are protesting.

I would like to call for a moment of silence for my kettle. A ever faithful appliance over many years from the my first marriage years ago,it has given much cups of tea and the occasionally sinful coffee. Unfortuantly it has boiled it's last and must go over the Appliance Bridge to once again boil and whistle in Valhalla. Now if any one of you m******f******* even so much as BREATHE at me wrong until I get a replacement and make emergency tea I swear I will probably buy another Subaru or some poo poo because I NEED TEA FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK Edit : Congratulations to the Space X astronauts who left the Earth today... good idea...
