My company does the annual review, ranking thing. It will be interesting to see how that evolves.

Last night's graduation ceremony for the Arapahoe Rescue Patrol was very nice. There were 13 members who graduated out, normally there are around 6. The chief had very nice words to say about CJ when it was his turn. Then after the graduates received their plaques, my co-chair and I were called up and given flowers and a goodie bag as thanks for all our time volunteering.

I didn't get a chance to look at my bag until I got home. I received 2 movie tickets to the theater around the corner, a set of bbq tools (my tools had gone poof after one of the team bbqs, and a small bottle of Jameson.

My Opinion, Let Me Show You It is *brilliant.*

Nice, Suzi!

We don't do the ranking, at least not that I know of, but we do do a formal annual review and honestly it does not fit into our general corporate culture.

Comcast has not yet arrived in the guaranteed 7:30-8am window. I know you're all shocked.

So nice, Suzi!

We're in review season now, which is good times. At least we don't have ranking of any kind, or even any kind of numbers attached.

And now I'm waiting for the Comcast guy to find a parking space. 10 minutes late is better than I expected.

Well, the Comcast appointment is not going smoothly because of a screw in the electrical closet (ha ha!), but at least my truck o'stuff should be arrive by next Wednesday.

Edit: Whining seems to be expediting the process, but it would be nice if the installation would be done in time for me to catch a shuttle to the office.

Doesn't Comcast have a guarantee that you get money from them if they're late? I wonder if it only applies to tech support appointments, though, and not installation.

I'll have to check that out tonight. I have internet now, so I'm waiting on a work shuttle.

Paula Deen webinar about to start. I am watching mostly in case there is a disaster.
