jokemaster Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 You know you're living in 2004 when... 1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave. 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3. 4. You e-mail your friend who works at the desk next to you. 5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends is that they do not have e-mail addresses. 6. When you go home after a long day at work you still answer the phone in a business manner. 7. When you make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line. 8. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies. 10. You learn about your lay-off on the 10 o'clock news. 11. Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job. 12. Contractors outnumber permanent staff and are more likely to get long-service awards.... and the real clinchers are... 13. You read this entire list, and kept nodding and smiling. 14. As you read this list, you think about forwarding it to your "friends". 15. You got this via e-mail from a friend that never talks to you anymore, except to send you jokes from the net, or in a forum. 16. You are too busy to notice there was no No. 9 17. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a No.9. Betchall did the last one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 XD Originally posted by jokemaster You know you're living in 2004 when... 1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave. Yup. Well, almost. 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. Yup. 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3. Not quite 15, but still, that's the idea. XD 4. You e-mail your friend who works at the desk next to you. Not had the chance yet, but... 5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends is that they do not have e-mail addresses. Not true, but it was in the past. XD (You could add now "or cell phones...") 6. When you go home after a long day at work you still answer the phone in a business manner. Don't have a job yet, so no. 7. When you make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line. Nope. 8. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies. 10. You learn about your lay-off on the 10 o'clock news. 11. Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job. 12. Contractors outnumber permanent staff and are more likely to get long-service awards.... and the real clinchers are... See #6. 13. You read this entire list, and kept nodding and smiling. XD 14. As you read this list, you think about forwarding it to your "friends". 15. You got this via e-mail from a friend that never talks to you anymore, except to send you jokes from the net, or in a forum. Hee. 16. You are too busy to notice there was no No. 9 17. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a No.9. Betchall did the last one. Bwhahahaha. Yup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pisces Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 The only ones, ironically, that relate to me are 16/17. Welcome to the wonders of living in the country. When summer comes around, you trampoline with friends, drink with friends, swim with friends, see movies with friends, go see live bands with friends, you keep in touch with'em. The solitaire thing, eh, months really. As for the job ones, I work in a grocery store. And yes, my boss can do the job as good as me. Far better in fact...smug bastard.
