Riding the VFR Interested in SAG

Just to be clear, I know you're doing this as a favor to all of us who need new tires for the year and I think that should be the focus. Didn't mean to volunteer you for extras like setting my SAG. I'll be there for meet and great. If there's down time for other stuff, that's up to you of course! :-)

From the comments "bet it was an off-duty cop." Bazinga. Lol

I'm so glad they didn't say "People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones."

I attended a PMP bootcamp at the suggestion of one of my managers, paid for by the company. My mistake was in not realizing the importance at the time and not taking the certification test. Would have been a lot of work and study, but - well lets just say hind sight is 20/20... If there were a way that your current employment could foot the bill for at least a part of your training I would highly recommend it. Especially if you plan to continue in any kind of project management position. And sometimes asking for training is a good way to demonstrate your willingness to enhance your worth to the organization... It's all about them, remember.

If I weren't in healthcare already, I would look into project management. Health Care is secure and enjoys relatively good growth. Good project managers are almost always needed, especially in IT. If you were interested and could relocate, I would suggest Ohiohealth. But since you're not ready to move check with the healthcare system in your area. Doesn't sound like you have your PMP, but working toward that would be helpful. Good luck!

Well THAT's good to know...

OOOOHHHH... that apple pie. lol! I got my own.

Need a "tag" feature. :-)

If you head out riding early in the year, there's just some stuff you've got to be more cognisant of. I'm personally not in a big hurry to get out there, I'll let the cage take the beating first.

The equivalent of curb stomping for a thread on ORDN...

subscribed... for entertainment value.

I think I need to hear more about this hot apple pie situation...

I like it.

If I wasn't handcuffed by corporate restrictions, I'd leave Verizon for T-mo just on cost savings and the flexibility of the month to month agreement. Verizon definitely has the coverage advantage going for them, tho... My "first" cell phone was a Uniden bag phone. Plenty of junk between that and the Crackberry 8520, which I really loved. Then the dark side called and the sojourn through touch screen devices began. Sammy is going to be the way to go from here...

Yikes... Show off. LOL

Yeah, I think I'm going to rule out the iPhone. I've enjoyed the variety of aps available with a droid and I'm not sure I'd have as many choices with Apple. I've talked to a couple of the other techs in my group that feel the same way, one is a droid geek that tried an iPhone for a year and plans to go back to a droid and the other is an iPhone guy that wants to get a droid. I know that IOS is a kickass system, but I'm afraid of being locked down to what they want to give me and nothing else. Just doesn't really fit my 70's hippy persona... I gotta be free, man. For what I use my phone for (four different e-mail systems, on-line searching, texting, very little calling) I think that the Note 2/3 would be awesome. I just don't know how I'm going to carry the damn thing. Like I said before, I'm not a pocket carry guy and the thing is mighty big to hang on my hip. Lots of good opinion here, lots of good info. Really appreciate it.

Well, I almost pulled the trigger on a Note 3 last night, but the pricing was back up around 3 hundo. Not gonna do that. The Note 2 offerings are all refurbs now and since the camera in the 3 was upgraded to be just as good as the S4, that pretty much rules out the Note 2. I must admit, I'm iPhone curious. I just can't bring myself to go there. Drawback to the Note 3 - If I put it in an otterbox, it makes the thing seem HUGE. I like having my phone on my hip, I'm not a pocket carry guy, and the holster setup for the Note makes it feel like I'm wearing a tablet. Undecided...

Thanks Ryan. I'm going thru more Galaxy reviews on line now. Pretty much decided, its going to be between the S4 and the Note 2. I must say, the big screen is nice but the S4 has a slightly better camera. Hmm. What to do...

What happened to your first one?

Can you say "bling" boys and girls? It's definitely a start. Can't say I like that tail much, looks like a shoe box back there. And either Arlen is a fat boy or that rear spring is underrated. Also, "chrome powder coat" on the magnesium rims? I didn't know there was such a thing. Cool.
