Let's be honest here though, Beth. There's quite a bit to stare at there. I'd stare too. :P Need I say... (pom poms)

{Blush!}

LOL!  I'm hoping you would maybe be a little more subtle than standing at the end of the pool, like maybe swim around a little or something at least - LOL!

OMG!!!  Not only did streaming video work this morning, I'm also able to finally get on Pandora! 

EXCELLENT!

now that is COOL!

slow day at work?

Eh... not especially.  Just some tedious stuff that goes by faster with some back ground music.

that's kind of my day too - I'm documenting a bunch of stuff and it goes faster if I post on Nibbs a lot multi -task

Well, the day just got more interesting.  They apparently had to let somebody go, and they freaked out.  Escorted out and all.  We were all called to a meeting and told to not let her back in the building for anything whatsoever.

wow!  I've had that happen to me actually - not the being escorted out part, the letting someone go part and having them freak out

it's actually kind of a funny story (now - it wasn't then)

I went kayaking and saw a guy with one of those over the shoulder speedos on... It was neon green, and he had this crazy blonde wig on, and another black wig stuffed in his pants. He was standing at the bow of his canoe, drunk, in all his pasty white glory. I was extremely intoxicated... so I started laughing so hard that I tipped the kayak... lol

Yeah...finally got the last question. It's from my adviser and I feel like it's the hardest one. He made up for it by giving me "extra time" and said I could turn it in before the weekend. Except that I have to turn it in by Friday morning so we can leave. I'm frustrated with him.

See you all later. Back to the grind.

Good luck!

I had a VERY intimidating adviser in grad school. In fact, he was kind of a jacka$$ , and his heavy German accent didn't do anything to smooth that fact over. It was also kind of weird that my dad was this guy's GA when he was college. He turned out to be really cool the last few weeks though. Tough no doubt, but respectful of the effort and quite congrulatory when it was all said in done. So, with the work you're putting in, I'm expecting much the same. You'll do fantastic!

Thanks.  That is good to know.  My adviser sounds a lot the same.  Just have to get through this right now and then I get a break.

Try not to get too excited when I tell you...

Asset quality review at a bank.  We look for all the bad loans and keep an eye on the diversification and concentration of the banks portfolio.

Basically, if we call you, it's not good news.

I have actually had lots of situations where I've had to let someone go, but this one was particularly eventful

the part that made it sort of funny was that I had gone out with him once - I was working in retail at the time and the HR department did all the hiring, we never interviewed anyone - so imagine my surprise one day when I get introduced to my new 'associate' and it's a guy I went out with

neither of us was too happy about it, lets just say it didn't go well - he felt that buying me one dinner automatically meant he got cheesecake for desert - NOT, he was so not my type - anyway - you get the picture

so now, here he is working for me - LOL!  he was a terrible employee, always late, lots of no shows, rude to customers you name it - so I fired him - he was very angry!

the guy actually came across the table at me and we had to call the cops to escort him out - it was crazy!

I'm ready to do a little swearing. This was our wrap up meeting for the event on Saturday. Committee chairs decide yesterday we would all meet early for pizza. $5 a person. Oh, we are to all bring something else to the meeting to share.

So - She comes in with the Pizza. 4 boxes of medium pizza for 7 of us. Already way too much pizza. She charges each of us $5. I figured that comes to $35. At most the pizza cost about $44 (I looked online). We don't even get through two of the pizzas. At the end of the meeting she takes all the pizza home with her complaining that she did not collect enough from all of us to cover it so no one else can take pizza home with them. She did not contribute anything else. So...what about the money all the rest of us spent on dessert, salad, dressings, forks, plates, etc. I hope I never have to work with her on a committee again. Jeezzz.
