View Full Version : My ****** job was AMAZING today
Well, I thought today was one of the worst for sure. Working outside in the rain all day, nonetheless hanging off the back of a garbage truck going 35MPH down a major road in town with ripped raingear. BUT my day was enlightened when i was throwing out a ****load of boxes with styrofoam in it, when i noticed one was slightly heavier than the rest. I decided to open it and find a laptop, faily new looking. So i throw it in the cab of the truck to let it dry off just a bit. It wasnt completely wet, just a little bit of water here and there. There was no charger to check to see if it worked tho. So just 15 minutes ago I took it out of my car and looked it up. Its a Toshiba, 2.0GHz, 256MB ram, 40Gig HD, cd burner, dvd rom, zip drive, and a flatscreen! :OMG: I had a spare oval 19V cord laying around to hook it up and it runs! The only flaw... is the O and J keys are missing, and I got a friend that repairs laptops for a living, so Im sending it over to him tomorrow. Figures... O-J's Missing!!! :lol:
This, other than the 2 working Xbox's and working PS2 i found over the course of 2 years, is the best find yet.

I just happened to do the rich section of Roxbury... we call it "Dradleville" cuz the houses are ****ing huge and the poeple dont tip on christmas like the rest of the town does. :lol:
Id say Roxbury is one of only a few places in NJ with a "Bling Bling Mountain", "Snob Hill", "The Ghetto", "The Slums", "The Valley", "The 'Tater Factory" (a street of Half-way houses and nipple-pinching Timmay shelters) and "Beer Bottle Avenue" :-D

believe it or not, the best time to find free stuff in the trash is the night before trash day at big retail stores. quite a few employees steal **** by throwing it out with the trash and picking it up later on. if you beat em to it, its yours. ive found video games, a cordless phone, a freaking toaster and numerous dvds. you dont have to dumpster dive either, they usually put it in another box right on top or around the dumpster.
What was wrong with it?!
*Drum Roll Please*
Bad Battery :kneeslap:
