I refer to my well-off, consumerist friends as yuppies all the time.

Refer them to who? It's nice of you to be looking out for someone else's business.

I pulled out a fairly decently sized clump of earwax out of my left ear this morning along with a spider.

Good times.

I forgot the "to" but apart from that:
Doesn't "refer to" also mean the same as to call somebody something?
Genuinely unsure ATM.

You can refer to someone meaning what you call them, but you can also refer someone to someone else such as a doctor.

Okay, I knew the latter as well, was just unsure about the former for a second there.

Good thing is that all the work is from about 7/8pm, so I can easily fit in another part/full time job during the days, or at least do something more useful with my time.
Well done Goof. Happy for you.

Sounds like a plan.

Today I had a 6am-9am shift at work. When I first saw the schedule I was like wtf why should I even get out of bed for this? But as the day approached I warmed to the idea of an easy day followed by a long bout of day drinking. So 8am comes around, and I can taste the beer, but then my manager walks up and tells me that TWO people have called out, both people who work my position, and so now he needs me to work till 2pm.

I can do an 8-hour shift. But holy **** did I not want to do one on an hour's notice. After a while of hating everything I settled into a groove and it was alright I guess. But **** that, **** this, **** all of those as well. And we were busy. And hella short-handed. But at least I was working with a bantering crew so it wasn't just a mind-numbing slog.

At least I got 5 extra hours that are now over and I don't have to go back till 9am tomorrow. SO MALT LIQUOR ALL DAY ERRY DAY!!!
