so how is everyone?
Pissed off with the manager. He left a big note at the desk today saying how a lot of things aren't getting done, and that we need to do better. And 80% of what's on the list are things that front desk shouldn't be having to do anyways. Like laundry (there should be a laundry person). Or cleaning after the breakfast and prepping for the next day (there should be a breakfast host). Or emptying the outside trash bins (has always been maintenance's job, but the new guy doesn't want to do it). Or vacuuming/mopping the hallways (should be housekeeping). But he's putting all of that on the desk staff, and getting mad because the three desk clerks a day can't do the work of 5 people. Or at least can't do it well. And of course, when he has to work a shift, he doesn't do any of it.

The manager must not be aware that workers are quitting in record numbers. Hiring market is wide open right now. I wonder how well those things will get done when he has noone but him there.

I liked the original, don't think I ever beat it. Loved 2 and 3 (as they were labeled for the SNES, I think the "proper" numbering would be 4 and 6?). I really liked 7, but never finished it because I had it for the PC, and every time I got close to the end, something would happen and I would lose my save (one time the computer wouldn't boot and when we sent it in for warranty repair they erased the hard drive, another time my roommate's friend decided he wanted to play it and overwrote my save file-he didn't even ask me if he could play it, and then something happened-I don't remember what-but most of the data on the hard drive got corrupted and lost). Other than that hour or so of 10, I haven't played the others.
3 was definitely my favorite.

And as I hit "Submit Post" I remembered that I had Final Fantasy Mystic Quest for the SNES too. I thought it was okay, but didn't care for it that much. I had a friend who loved to watch me play 2 and 3, but didn't want to play them himself because he thought they were too difficult, but he loved Mystic Quest, so I sold it to him.

I use to play back in the days of 4th edition, Ice Age, and Mirage. I didn't really like Mirage, and I and the friends I played with were getting kind of tired of Magic, so we pretty much stopped by 5th edition's release. My brother tried to get me into it during Return to Ravnica, and I did buy a few dozen packs, but I never really got back into it fully. I liked playing the game, but didn't always like the other players. Like my brother, for instance, who would brag about how much his cards cost before playing them. Like he would chuckle and go "Oooohhhhh. You're gonna hate this card. It cost me $30.", or "I had to trade $50 worth of rares for this one!". And I'm like "I don't care, just play the damn card. Congratulations on having more money to spend on cards than an unemployed high schooler."
