THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN - The Houston Thread - Texas Showdown May 5-7, 2017

Sorry to hear that, man. What was their reason for firing you?

failed the drug test after hitting up that crack at smileys and dennys?

too soon. =(

T&T Taste and tact.

All Magneto players should look at the last stream footage from Monsters. I have something special for you…

FYI: I manage(d) the cafe inside the Ashley Furniture on 610 and San Felipe.

I got fired for being sick, basically. I had come down with a case of bronchitis and couldn’t come into work. Informed one of my ASMs of such and he wished me well. On Super Bowl Sunday, I got a text from my SM if I was coming back to work. I told him yeah, I’ve been dealing with bronchitis, but I’ll be there tomorrow (Monday). So, I head out there…hacking and coughing up a damned lung. Get there, he’s in a meeting and one of the manager’s there see’s me and tells me to go home.

So, I go home and the next day go to the hospital. As I figured, I had bronchitis. They give me some anti-biotics and a few other things. All the while I can hardly talk to anyone for more than a few seconds before I start to cough and wheeze. (Its so bad at this point that I’m dealing with nausea and the inability to keep food down while also having such horrid fits of coughing that it induces vomiting.) So from that moment on, no one calls me or texts me to see what’s up. I check my area’s e-mail account to see if anyone had sent anything to it and nothing. I wind up missing another week of work due to all of this and finally was able to go back today as I had started feeling better this past Tuesday.

So today, I go in and my SM see’s me and doesn’t ask how I am, or anything to that accord just a “Hey.” So I start working and setting things up. Later on in the day, he comes over and tells me that I need to send off the tab totals for the employees that had one. Alright, no problem… tell him I’ll finish up all the paperwork / inventory on Monday since it’ll be a short day and I can also place in an order for food and such before doing February’s inventory at the end of the month. Finally, around 6pm he asks to talk to me and basically says that I no call / no showed and that I was fired for doing so. In all of this, he tells me that the DM of our area had called my house all day on Suday (this past one, not Super Bowl) of which I told him that’s a lie, he didn’t call jack shit. He just looks at me and tells me that if I have any issues, I can go talk to HR about 'em.

So yeah… that’s that. Monday, I’m going down to the TWC office and filing a few complaints against him / company for all of this as at no point was I given any paperwork stating why I was fired or for me to sign off on…along with the fact that I felt as if my job was threatened as the first talk he and I ever had, was him telling me the cafe doesn’t do enough business to cover my salary and would frequently come by and condescendingly ask me if I was selling anything or had made any money that day. Not my fault that the store is in a horrible area and they put a cafe in an area of which there’s a Jack in the Box, a Starbucks and Antoine’s right outside.

Ugh, sorry for the rant guys…

interesting. ^

in other news… I suck at MvC3… bad =(
I really need to ~SEE~ other people play… TO ME the timing in this game is very wonky. Its like you have to buffer (is that the right term??) nearly ALL the moves whereas in MVC2 when you hit, you hit the button (about 99% of the time) , unless you were doing some kind of infinite like Iron Mans for example.
I’ve had this game for 4 days…and I still cannot OTG anything from a air combo to S.

;_;

practice, IMO the best OTG assist is deadpools assist, it’s easy, it’s fast, it doesn’t juggle all to high hell like Vipers. OTG assists like Wesker/X-23/Dante are a bit slower. Dante’s more useful though since it hits longer and for more hits, so you can call the assist, jump in the air and do a jump-in etc etc. Helps to be in the corner too. Doom also has st B/C that OTG as well, B is easier to time than C, i think.

Just time your air magic series a little slower liquid. Generally done that way, you will land earlier and have an easier time OTG’ing after air S.

**I can’t do the Magneto loop.

I suck so much :sad:**

Practice makes perfect, young mutant.

Oh where can I find the stream for Monster. I need every hint to use Magneto effectively.

It should have been put up already. Brian and Dre are goofing up.

Edit: X factor cold wars are gonna be awesome.

Man I’m loving Marn’s assessment & Mike Ross on Cross Counter TV (check it out sometime) kind of connected with what I said on Scrub MvsSentential3…X factor is a big factor lol… learned a couple of things on changing my mindset within MarvelvsC3…yeah I have fun playing this game despite the game can be extremely scrubby at times esp. the Chip damage in this game is out of sight—spamming lvl 1 supers/projectile and some of the characters in this game have something like 3 hits of super armor on some moves lol…though time I thought blocking or defense is rewarded but It isn’t … enough of the bs with this game i think I’m picking Sent. now so if my opponent picks Sent. I will do like wise… ftw:…

I’m I the only one or the few that views this game like this??..the title of the game should be “Marvel vs Capcom 3 the fate of being hit once you die”

I love how Will’s posts are supposed to be so rare…

there we go…

They r bc… I never post anything regarding SRK in till very recently just like other’s I’m sure… bc n all honestly I think its counter productive or I see u guys that do alot of random small talk or mad meddling w/each other form time to time…or the hate on ABK for example to putting ppl on blast on this site is childish – … I had my fun posting on SRK

Come on man, u feel better about yourself, it excites u bagels waiting for someone to respond to ur comment of what u said …I was repeating what marn & gootecks & mike ross were saying about the game…that was their exact words & its tru…Bagels just respond to the post in a way to give you opinion instead of focus on the comment joke i said at the end

Mike Ross uses my team, and hes just not very good, fuckin marn was salty cause he got beat. These guys aren’t experts on MvC3. They’ve played just as long as we have.

But seriously, you don’t block at all…
