Cool deal. I remember you setting displays in the past, when did you stop that?

Also, the side biz sounds FUN. Me love fast bikes and aftermarket parts.:cool:

it's actually my first day BACK at work this week.

I effed my shoulder/back so badly over hte weekend that it hurt to breath Monday morning. I honestly couldn't have made it to work, or sat there without crying out in pain...

Then I got a fever that night and stayed home yesterday, downing Tylenol cold & sinus and fighting cold sweats. It was a blast.

I basically HAD to come in today to avoid losing my job. I get sick time, but I also work on (partial) commission, and it's my ass if shit doesn't get done. Clients only give a shit for so long when you tell them you're sick and can't make it into the office.

Thankfully SCHOOL is closed today, so I can stay late at work to catch up without missing class.

as a kick in the junk though, our boss sent out a "policy revision" basically taking away 5 vacation days a year from everyone who has been with the company more than 5 years (that would be me). Thanks for that.

Most of the time working from home has it's perks. But the sucky part is no matter the weather outside I have work to do. Unless there's not power or something special.

+1. I was sorta hoping to wake up with no power and the Crackberry battery to die but no such luck.

Dude, that is sooo wrong. I'm sorry to hear that man. I could never do that to people.

..glad i got up at 3am and drove 15 miles for two whole hours of work

:lol: That would suck.

Called in sick yesterday and today. What a coincidence the weather is sucky. :rolleyes:

Yeah, because you are sick, but now they probably think you're lying because of the weather. I hate how things work out like that sometimes.

musta caught da aids from the weekend

:lol::lol:

yeah it's about perception, a bunch of fedex trucks drove around empty, mostly doing pickups. We got a lot of phone calls about UPS not showing up and Fedex being there on time.
