And, I dont understand how he could, now, be having a public nervous breakdown, if he wasn't before. He always made personal attacks.

It's called The Tornado. They have them at a bunch of water parks in the states. So far, nobody's been crazy enough to try that yet.

Whole new meaning to Ghost Kitchen

Its probably an unpopular opinion considering the comments here, but I think it should be said that maybe it comes easy for alot of people, but being a cook at a fast food joint like Dairy Queen or Culver's absolutely takes a certain amount of skill. Skill not every person has, or can learn.

When a place is busy, takes a certain process of thought patterns and organization to keep track of all the different ingredients on the griddle, what stage they're at while cooking, while ensuring everything is cooked in a timely manner.

Sure, many people can succeed at learning these skills, not everyone can. It is a skill, and honestly, it's slightly upsetting to see people think it's as easy as breathing, when it's just not for some people. If it were actually that simple, you'd never have to check the bag to make sure they got the order right before you drive off and there wouldn't be videos of fast food workers being mistreated for giving some jerk fries instead of onion rings. Ever.

Imo, although there is overlap, both jobs require some skills that different than the other. Typically, surgeons perform, at most, a handful of types of surgery (per surgery), on 1 or 2 people at a time. They know what surgery will be preformed ahead of time, so they can prepare, and there's a typically a set procedure for the deviations or complications that may arise. Successfully improvising is what sets a great surgeon apart. And, if all is going well, they have teams that can stabilize the patient for an extended amount of time. Fast food workers are assembling multiple orders with multiple foods in minutes. It may take a surgeon years to learn proper surgery, but it doesn't mean they have the skill or mindset that is required to flip burgers.

Yeah...I took the bait, then remembered what day it was.

Both. My family lives out in the county. There's no rules as to what is supposed to done with the land.

So...They clear cut it. They'll leave a few small scraggly oak trees which will mostly all die in a year or two. It's horrible. They turn a beautiful forest into a dry desert in a week.

They'll misquote a local rancher, spout misinformation about certain species of trees to justify their horrible land management practices.

And then wonder why the area has less water and is getting hotter.

It's funny how, in my area at least, the HOAs are always stopping people from wanting to plant, and the people who can plant want to make it look like an HOAs wet dream.

My rotty and my lhasa used to do this. The lhasa would get really mad and yell, if the rotty didn't feel like making out.

It probably wouldn't hurt for you to start carrying an emergency bag around in your trunk on outings like this. It doesn't take up much room and could safe your life. Some food and water and something warm (clothes, sleeping bag, or both) could really go along way, esp if rescue can't come immediately and it's really cold out there, or you need to hoof it out.
