Hope we don't need any incompetent  IT Idiots the next two days they both said too cold tomorrow and Friday they will not be here.  ???  No chit I just heard it first hand.
Good lord, they're either related to the owner or has a picture of the boss with a goat. How else does one stay employed with that attitude.
They don't come to work if it is raining or below freezing, I am not kidding either.  Go frikken figger.   ::)
Do they then work from home, or does the boss pay them for not working?  If so, I can not work for him, under those circumstances either - hook a brother up!
Our supervisors were always pretty nice, and if it snowed real bad they would let us call in and take a vacation day off.  That was in the good old days.  Before I retired, I got a real hard ass boss.  I called in due to about having about 10 inches of snow, and she docked me a days pay, and wrote me up for not showing up to work.  After that, when we'd get a bad snow, I'd call in sick for 4 days.  On the 5th day, you had to have a doctors excuse.  But I was always lucky to get well on the 4th day. :)  And lucky for me, I got paid sick days.
We can all work from home if roads are a problem from snow or ice, etc.... that is not an issue at all.
That always sounded nice, working at home.  That wasn't available in my time.
you have to be a knowledge worker, if you can take over your desktop, it shouldn't matter, that you aren't really there.  Now if you drive a truck or move lumber in a sawmill, well then, still not so much.

Chit we may be part of CA if this keeps up!   :)  Bean is north of me so he will go first I guess, you guys enjoy our cigars!

Should make it easier to mix the martinis.
But those thin martini glasses are rather fragile, might be an issue there.
Drink 'em straight from the shaker.  Colder that way.
I make mine in the shade of the vermouth bottle. or rinse the glass with vermouth, then use Bombay Sapphire.
Here, have a margarita.  It's a dry margarita.  It was made in the vicinity of a bottle of triple sec.
never liked the taste of the shot by itself.  will add the floater shot to a margarita, though!
Sip some Don Julio Anejo, you might change your mind.

You got yourself any travellin orders yet there Jersey Dave
Nope, and in no hurry, so I'm layin' low.
Definitely a good deal and reason to stay low!

I have a dream... that my four little children will one day... live in a nation where assembly line workers will have the ability to work from home too.

I think I will drink heavily this evening.  I'm just in that kind of a mood.  Definitely no smoke for me today but planning on two tomorrow.  I'll have to check the RP drawer to see what kind of shape those cigars are in before I give them all away on the 15th.   :D
