Buffy ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
But my caps look like little lego soldier helmets.
Mine too. I like your cap off/cap on code, Cass, but I suspect I would lose the caps if they weren't on the bottles. Hm.
BTW, Cass, I for some reason have a unicorn corkscrew that I think I am supposed to send to you? But I don't have your address. Or know that you would actually want it, really. I don't remember where this conviction that it wants to be yours came from.
I want a soda stream!
I get 5 weeks paid vacation, but it is because I have worked here for 15 years. I can't use it all, frankly.
That moving ice was freaky. Would not be happy to have ice crawling up my yard.
I think they arrested the guy.
Oo, I should go look that up. Thanks, le n.
I hit 4 weeks at 15 years. They just changed it recently so I can't sit on more than 4 weeks in at a time. So I hit 4 and quit accruing until I burn it off. I can so use up 4 weeks and wish I could plan to use more than 4 weeks in a big trip!
I know I've actually got it pretty good for a corporate employee, but it SUCKS in contrast to the main contract folk who have 5 weeks a year from the get go (after a 6 month probationary period) who have a cap that is something insane like a year.
I have 23 days, which rises to 30 in a few years (except that I'm also at a level where they stop tracking it.
I have 10 days. I could use as much as they would give, because I could take random days off all the time and never stop loving it.
Company policy has changed, we can't carry over accrued vacation time any more. So I have 13 days to burn off from last year, and 16 days for this year. My plan is to take some of it in June, perhaps on the East coast, and some of it in August in southern Colorado coordinated with a trip my Dad and step mother are taking.
Hey, you want to feel like an idiot? Try this game: [link]
My first guess--I said South America, but the answer was Australia. Second game, I said near Fort Stockton, and it was nearer Fort Smith. Only 800km the second time. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO PLAY. Or to navigate street view.
That ice was neat. I say, as someone without property at risk.
Sarameg, it's great that they're looking ahead and seeing you as a good fit for an advancement.
My corporate overlords are reorganizing bigtime. There's major bucking from our local boss to keep our existing reporting structure. I have a not-so-secret hope that the main contract will buy us out. TIAACREF! 5 weeks! But highly unlikely, so far corporate is bending to our local whims.
