Yeah, I think that's a joke on another board. Oops. Here the muffin joke is about whitey eating one.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Okay, someone help me out here: is there any downside to an Employee Stock Purchase Plan? You get company stock at a 15% discount of the lower of the closing market price of the first and last day of the six-month period. So if the stock has gone down and you sell on that last day, you make 15% regardless, right? And if it's gone up, you're going to make a lot more. It seems like a win-win. What am I not considering? Taxes? Taxes are screwy and confusing with stocks.

ESPPs are generally a great deal, but you do have to be careful to make sure you're on top of selling the stock. And you will have taxes to deal with, so you'll be paying your accountant more.

Generally there are some restrictions on how long you have to hold the stock before you can sell. And of course things can go down a lot more than 15%. Otherwise they're generally a pretty big deal, so long as you don't have too much of your comp tied up in them.

Still coughing. Still can't breathe through my nose.
We have an ESPP. If you do payroll deduction, you get a discount on the purchase price each 6 months. If I could afford it, I would buy much more than I have.

My nerd neighbors are Firefly fans. One just sang the chorus from "The Man They Call Jayne" and said, "I need to find someone who can do that on the guitar." Neighbor: "I'll so do that!" And then they laughed in shared geek joy.
I love connie's geeky coworkers!
