I was at Burger King at the UB Commons earlier today when I saw this sign attached to the register. I would have thought about using the singles I had in wallet to pay, but instead I held on to them and gave the girl my twenty, just because I don't like when people use a 'z' to replace an 's'.

Over the summer we had an outdoor concert series on UB South Campus. Every week University Facilities came out and put up snow fence. The first week they sent out a crew with snow fence, fence posts, and a post driver. Apparently they decided this was too easy so for the rest of the series of concerts they sent out a different crew, a crew of 3 people, who came with snow fence, fence posts, and this time, a front loader. It seems that this crew felt the best way to drive the fence posts into the ground was to use the front loader to drive them in. Now this did turn out to be a humorous process to watch, as they bent as many fence posts as they drove in. Of course as I watched these New York State employees do this work it helped to remind me why New York State is in such a budget crisis.

The other day I was walking out of UB Stadium and I saw this in the loading dock so I had to take a picture:
Yes, that is a pallet of hot dogs, which is clearly labeled "Keep Refrigerated" sitting in the sun.

...and the antenna cables only have a few inched of slack.

Here's another two-fer blog today. When I took these pictures I never thought that they would end up in a blog entry. In fact I didn't even have a blog when I took either of them, but I keep running across them in iPhoto and I still think they're funny so maybe you will too.

A Greener Shade of Blue

Many months ago I took a walk out the back door at work into the loading dock and I came across this, It's a generator with 4 par cans hooked up to it, they're not lighting anything, they're just waisting gasoline. I came to find out that the Student Association purchased this generator and wanted to see how long it would last on one tank of gas so they brought it over and ran it in our loading dock all day. Apparently their loading dock was too close to their office and they didn't want to listen to it run.

So as soon as I saw this I ran inside the building to look for anyone with a camera to lend me, it was just too ironic that SA was doing this while the University as a whole was in the process of a semester long initiative they called "A Greener Shade of Blue"

Injunuity

This photo was also taken at a place that I work, the Seneca Niagara Casino. A few of us at UB also work at the casino in our spare time, and when we get back to UB we tell stories of our casino experience. One story that no one ever believes is that their drive around man lift is from Injunuity Equipment Rentals. Everyone always accuses us of being racist, so I had to take this picture to prove them wrong.
