Ok what is some of your oddities in your job.

Mine is the great mystery of shipping across that dam dotted line between the USA and Canada.

Rules, regulations, phecking codes and fines that would crumble this business.

I have to put an HS code to everything from bits of wire to lithium, here is an interesting product listed in the Harmonization Code list:

2 Meat and edible meat offal. 0102E

Anyone dare to explain that one ahahahahaha

Can't remember the codes though. (not so sad afterall!)

The oddest thin about my current job is that we have to make our own coffee!

(Not literally.. I just mean we have to go to the kitchen, boil the kettle etc..) :-2


Heh Hehe That is a crime Stelz what a pity ... sounds a lot like instant coffee bleck.

No I work for a company that manufacturers battery packs, we handle lithium and electronics in the process so as of Nov. Last year I am key learner for shipping and believe me it is an eyeopener. Fed Ex is who I do some dealing with mind you hehehehe

Well I don't usually do one on ones in my job. I generally leave that for the counselors.

However due to haveing a car wreck the other day I let my second staff run the pod and I did a one on one with a kid who claims to be a "Good Satinist"

I think he is mainly doing this for attention. But it was an intresting conversation.

He claims to be a deamon. I told him that I did not think he was a deamon because I like him and I don't like deamons. Got to be careful not to cross the church state line. I also told the youth that he may be posessed but I don't think he is a deamon.

He claimed to be a regular deamon which acording to him is one of the most powerful deamons.

He says there are all kinds. Sex, car and regular.

LOL! To ship clothes to the channel islands here, we have to wait until it clears customs BEFORE we ship it, so they dont open the box....... :yh_eyerol
