Never a good sign

One of the guys doing construction work on my building just shouted "#$%#*@" at the top of his lungs.
No kidding! He screamed "pound - dollar - percent - pound again - asterisk - stupid little 'a' with a curly tail enveloping it which I assume from the context of email addresses must mean 'at' but it could just be french for 'a', and what do I know I'm no linguist" at the top of his lungs.
  • UPDATE: Judging from the continued calm nonchalance of his coworkers, I can assume he's okay. In fact, I rather assume he must do this all the time.
  • UPDATE #2: Spelling out the word really didn't help the post. All you needed to know was that he cussed, and loudly. Sometimes I get a little over-zealous in my desire to make my personal life stand out in sharp contrast to my previous retail experience. Truth is, spelling the "F-bomb" here just devalued the power of the word the next time I need it to have an impact. Just cause this is repeatedexpletives doesn't mean I need to use foul language in every post. I think I'll edit it to the same "word" used by John Kovalic and/or New Line cinema. There, that opened the possibility for a really weak joke. Much better.
