This is some video of how they deal with the boredom sometimes.

Oh boy, look what I found.

People ask me...

why I'm so angry all the time? Hmmmmm. Could it be that I don't pay attention to details that some rich fuck wants me to so his ass can get richer and I end up getting fired for not paying attention to some stupid, shit-job that I didn't want in the first place?
