When I was on the train last night, resigned to miss the AJ Fernandez event at The Cigar Shack, my daughter called.  Her movie night at school was over, where should she pick me up? Got to the event a half hour after it had begun. Buy five cigars, get two free. left with various sizes of original New Worlds, and two Enclave toros. was about to light a New world, and Brad/Denali, said put that away, got something special for you.  It was a well aged Mayimbe figurado.  Seems these were from a special batch that A J made for him. Had over a year in the humidor. Glad the B&M had an event / Christmas party last night. One of my best smokes ever.  Oh and they had food & drink too!  Good morning boys.

Sounds pretty good for someone that was seemingly resigned to just having a smoke at the legion... quite the upgrades.

Does your vacation day expire at the end of the year or roll over? No brainer if it just goes unused.

I used to hold a couple extra days as a "just in case" scenario and the company would reimburse for all unused days at the end of the year. Now, they no longer offer that buy back so it's use it or lose it. Needless to say, I make sure I use them all now.

These Cains are another line that used to be in the rotation, but have been purged out of inventory. I think I have a couple Daytona's left.

Morning everyone!  Another long day of doing a whole lot of nothing in the office lined up!  Too bad we cant smoke in here.
Who'll give you a ticket?
Internal tickets are usually pink and come with a free, unpaid, vacation day...not so much into get those kinds of vacation, if ya know what I mean.
I understand. I guess then you'll have to suffer without a smoke like the rest of us who are working.
Good morning to you and Steve, by the way.
I will say that is one thing I miss about patrol.  Slow night shifts full of cigars and shenanigans.
Ya got a better chance of not getting shot sitting at your desk though.
This is the truth.  It isn't a 100% desk job, there is quite a bit of serving warrants and stuff.  However, I am not driving around in a target all day anymore, which is nice.
And a hot, glamorous detective babe as a partner, with sexy, young criminal biatches to cuff, just like on TV, right?
...and guns that never run out of bullets, and tailored suits, and databases that will instantly locate any bad guy anywhere complete with pictures...

When cops talk about shenanigans, I get nervous.  ;-)

Morning, muchachos.

Morning, Bret

So here is the real debate of the day....To burn a vacation day tomorrow or come to work and talk to you SOB's for 8 hours again tomorrow?
You realize that if you don't work and the rest of us have to, we arrange to have your desk booby-trapped.

My vacation renews on my anniversary date each year (Nov 1).  I just got 4 weeks and anything unused will roll over when my new vacation comes in next year.
