So I'm convinced I can pretty much do anything I want at this job without getting fired. If this guy's plans work, I'll have made him a lot of money. If I leave before I'm done, he's quite screwed.

Shawn's business tip of the day for Saturday August 6th.
"They'll [black people] try to get something for nothing. Sometimes you have to act like they've won. That way they'll feel better because they think that they ripped you off."

I fucking hate this guy.

Interesting moment of Sunday August 7th. As I'm doing work and concentrating on entering many UPC numbers into a computer Shawn shouts from the other room something about being surprised and even a bit outraged that sellers on half.com are lisitng items 'used only once' as "brand new". This is fucking stupid for two reasons:
1.) At the time, all I could think of was numbers, which is good and allowed me to be very efficient at my job. his interruption broke that ocncentration and made me work slower for a while.
2.) Just about 99% of the merchandise that I list online for him as "brand new" is used. So not only is a crooked, but he's a fucking hypocrit as well. Nice, huh?
