Dude, I really hope you get that other job. Your current boss sounds like a real asshole.

Easy, knock 5% off the quote for 16 units and tell them that's the single unit price.

I bet they go for the volume discount.

GM van. Much robust, very crash test.

So this fucken fucktard decided that he was going to copycat some other fucktard in Cali who was :rage: because of his forced celibacy. Essentially no girl would sleep with him so it was time to run over old ladies, baby strollers, and anyone of the other 25 people who were walking outside at that time.

Why isn't mental wellness isn't covered is beyond me.

They email the slide show out anyway so who cares
Doing good on safety, had a few leaks, missing our lofty targets here and there, yada yada. They won't release financial information to us and they won't discuss anything about company direction or bonuses or anything so why waste the hour?

Only you never get to see the torpedoes shoot or know if you blew up the death star or get a warning that Darth Vader is behind you and surprise your company is actually bankrupt. Just endless stay on target messages.

Dog has a staph infection and lots of inflammation. They're not entirely sure the cause of the inflammation yet or if the staph is even the primary issue, and the bacterial and inflammation pathology reports will take roughly a week to get back. But they're going to start her on antibiotics and a steroid, some pain meds and anti-nausea today so she starts eating and fight the staph until they figure out the underlying cause of this.

Many of the larger lumps were in fact lymph nodes, some secondary bumps weren't but were likely overflow from filled lymph nodes.

May need to send out a sample for fungal analysis but we're going to hold on that as they said it's rather uncommon.

Sounds like pup should end up being ok, likely going to be a 6 week treatment for her that we will do at home, with a more targeted and stronger approach once they get the lab results back.

Sucks to go through, but at least it's easily treatable.

Someone from a non-profit reached out to Michelle after getting a copy of her resume. Imagine the pay will be low since it's a non-profit, but if she's able to get licensed while working there, she'd be willing to take a bit of a pay cut to do that. Wonder when she'll hear back from them again. He (HR rep) asked her to let him know what kind of position and experience she's looking for so he can see what would be the best match for her in the organization.

Some non-profit work can actually pay really well.

True, and working for the county, she's already underpaid, so maybe it'd be a wash. It's up in North County (San Marcos), which if I get the NG gig, could actually work well, cause we could move to like Escondito or something and split our commutes pretty easily.
