That was funny.

That's bad. *Gigglesnorts*

*Snert*

that is so bad XD

FYI, that barcode also contains your info. Should have put a mosaic over that as well.

Meh. Not like I'm not in the phone book. 'Sides, how can one translate a stream of numbers without the cipher?

Some people do have a barcode scanner, but yeah, you can't decode it unless you have the cipher.

if you rearange some of the letters you can spell MASTERBATION

How do YOU spell relief?

Plop, plop!
Fizz, fizz!

A-L-K-A S-E-L-T-Z-E-R

Oh wotta relief it izzzz!

Hee Hee.

Bleep goes the census.

Oooh, I like it.

I'm not sure why, but the Bureau sent me my packet back in February. Might have been 'cause I applied for a job with them? I d'no.

I do know they sent a -second-, identical packet a week later, after I'd mailed the first back to them. :P US Tax Dollars at Work!

I've been working for the Census, and going to people's houses and giving them the packets... and several of them have either gotten one already or been like "there's a mail box right over there, why are you here?" I'm like... I have no idea. Yay tax dollars! :D

I've been waiting for a call from them so I can go work for them. :P

Hopeful that it will, if it happens, be a clerk job and not enumerator.

I hope so too, for your sake. I've been having a hell of a job lately. x.x; I have to go up to Santa Fe (seven hours away from me) tomorrow and stay in a hotel for like a week, and drive around in the mountains looking for the people who don't live there. My Crew Leader told me I have to bring stuff for my car so that if I get stuck I won't starve to death if nobody finds me for a few days. x.x;;;

Anyway, god I want a clerk job. The pay is great (ESPECIALLY the mileage to be honest) but it kills me. :<

It wouldn't be so bad here -- I live in Huntsville, AL, and the work would be in the Huntsville-Madison-Decatur MSA, so less than 30 miles' drive in the worst case.

Honestly, though, I'd be perfect for clerk. My first job involved banging out hundreds of thousands of keystrokes doing payrolls and county vehicle- and voter-registration data entry. :P

I dunno, I've had to go pretty far out for some of this crap, out in the boonies. This sounds like the boonies from hell tomorrow. Hopefully I don't die. x.x;

I'll bet all the cooshie desk jobs are filled up anyway. Bet everybody wants it. :< But good luck getting it anyway, I sure as hell would have preferred it. xD

Good luck out there in the sticks. I've already turned in my time there in my first job... driving to all sorts of remote places in Alabama and Mississippi to provide computer software and hardware support.

I miss those days. :D

It could be worse. You could have been sent out to 'do' a 2000 passenger cruise ship... every deck, every stateroom... twice.

Oh god, you really had to do that? D:

Not me personally, but I know that it had to be done for at least one ship during the last NZ census in 2006...

That's pretty insane... D:

Yay Census. I filled mine out this morning. I finally got to see what's inside those packets I'm delivering, lawl.

*groans n rolls my eyes* oh lord

*giggles* ya goof

I sent mine out, so I have no census.

holds nose and runs

Oh, for the love of...

*cracks up*

I should not be laughing this hard at such a bad pun. XD

You mean they *post* the US Census forms out? The US Postal service must be groaning under the weight of all that extra mail...

I was involved with the last NZ Census in 2006 (on the IT side), and for getting the forms out Statistics NZ hired a veritable army of "enumerators" who went round *every* house, apartment block, hotel, motel, resort and cruise ship in the country handing out the forms... then went round again collecting them afterwards!

(We had an online Census form for the first time that Census, but the uptake wasn't as great as we thought. The early online results saw one person put in their religion as "Sith Lord", so we knew we could only get /one/ more of those )

Oh, they send census takers out too, if they don't get a form back from an address. I sent mine back already (gave my race as "yetisysni", just to give 'em a headache).
