Oh my.

The campus "director" who allegedly was fired from his job and got $2000 in severance pay.

He must've been rehired.

Or perhaps he was lying; I dunno.

note from franksolich: wrong primitive.  The "campus director" was the blur256 primitive, not this one

So... We Had To Evacuate The Building Yesterday...

Can't give too much away, but...

We receive mail, and process government forms... and make sure that those that have lost their jobs get money to tide them over.

And some idiot... mad at his bank... uses one of our envelopes to send a multi-page rambling screed complete with a circuit board and other electronic parts... plus business card !!!

A call was made... a total evacuation was called for.

So... we stood outside in the parking lot for an hour or more... we had 5 Fire Trucks, 6 Highway Patrol. 3 Sheriffs, 2 Jet Fighters, and 3 Helicopters...

Ok... we're next to an ex AFB so the fighter jets and helicopters were probably incidental, but still...

After being told to move back FURTHER away from the building, and waiting an hour and 20 minutes... we were told to go back in and finish up the day.

A few of us went to the bar shortly thereafter.

5. My dear WillyT!

I know they have to be cautious, but really!

I hope you were able to decompress in the bar...

10. I miss the days when a bomb threat was a polite phone call warning people to evacuate...

...instead of unknown devices or white powder sent in the mail.

For one thing, it makes it really awkward for people who do mail art. You mean if I mail someone a circuit board, it's a BOMB?

For another, it makes it really ineffective, almost insulting, to send someone a toot or three in appreciation.

I suppose that if someone mailed you a week-old salmon these days they'd consider it an act of biological terrorism.

Sad days indeed. I never though things could get so bad as to make one look nostalgically back on the seventies. How come the right wing gets to monopolize all the crazy, and they have to get so MEAN with it?

So then this------"A few of us went to the bar shortly thereafter"

 

Yupo the first place after all this anyone would go is to a bar.  ---Stripper bar, pole dancers, lap dances  ????

Funny thing is, coach already gave me moat of the information needed to find where this transgression occured.

Yet in the local and regional media, nothing to be found. One would thing a crime such as this would rate SOME mention.

Wrong primitive, the campus director was blur numbers.

He just called an occupooper an idiot.

Yeah, sorry about that.

I stand corrected, and edited the original post.

The WillyT primitive's the gay primitive who's always whining.

When it comes to distinguishing the primitives, it is like trying to tell the difference between identical twins that you are unfamiliar with.
