That's a long list my friend.

Also, why is it that when they host SC, they're the only ones that aren't wearing a coat and tie?

We both know how simple Skype is, I hope no one was thinking I wanted you to be in awe of my mad Skype skillz.....<rolls_eyes>

Toughest part of my day was getting up at 2:30am in the freezing cold to drive for an hour and a half to the site.

Re: What did you do at work today?
 

Today I read the Warpath, posted on the Warpath. Did some drudgery that is my work, then read the Warpath, posted on the Warpath. Got pizza at lunch, then read the Warpath, and posted on the Warpath. Marked some boxes, moved 'em around, read the Warpath, and posted on the Warpath. Did some scheduling, read the Warpath, and posted on the Warpath.

Not really sure I posted each time I read, but y'all understand what I mean.

Re: What did you do at work today?
 

ive been mia most of this week.

mon - left early for a job interview
tues - drove my lady to hospital in DC to see her dying great grandma
wed- went to hosp in balt to get our 2nd sonogram, its a girl, spent rest of day buying various pink things and registering
today - decided to get in early bc im leaving early again tomorrow for another job interview. admirably spent most of the day doing actual work writing complaints and fielding phonecalls, past 30 mins or so reading and utilizing the warpath . .mooby posted some really funny stuff on super happy fun thread.

currently sitting in my office typing this ready to click over to some word docs if i hear anyone walking down the hall. the "not so good speaking english" secretary is sitting at her desk outside making the occassional "oww" noise like she just deleted something she didnt mean to . . .literally as i was typing that she did a long "ohhhhhhhhh". the longest one of the day. probably deleted everything she has been doing for the past 3 hours.

edit - yall probably think im some kind of ahole. her great grandma isnt dying, she is doing much better and might be released tomorrow.

double edit - now hear my bosses voice, hes on the loose. maria is making more oww sounds

Re: What did you do at work today?
 

Today was a great day. I hit my end of the year numbers almost two months early.

Haha you're not the only one. I deal with a lot of winos, naturally, and most of them say the same thing. "Boy I wish I had your job so I could sit there and drink all day."

Ah, Newcastle Brown, probably the most skunked beer in the world next to Heineken.

When I worked at Marriott we always got one. IT is a nice touch that few companies still do.

Though to be fair my current employer throws a per-Thanksgiving party the Thursday (like this week) before thanksgiving.

Re: What did you do at work today?
 

I had an interview today for an open position as a stock clerk in the parts department at a dealership my friend works for. I'll be starting in a couple weeks after Thanksgiving.

Are these actual exercises where mgmt is concerned for some reason and wants to figure out what reallys IS wrong or are these exercises just meant to help make sure content is constantly being reviewed and freshened?

Like Scud said...M&M is ESPN's worst piece of major content by a long shot. Most everything else seems pretty solid to awesome. But M&M are dreck...

Re: What did you do at work today?
 

Interviewed 3 people, (2 girls/1 guy)
Fired 2 people.
Had lunch with the wife
Saw a guy get arrested at the gas station
Found out that my stupid sister-in-law is staying with us for 2 months
You know the usual.

Well I don't care for Mike at all, but I do like Mike.

So most of what I work on isn't about now, it's about the future. So these particulary exercises I'm working on are (hypotethically) if in 3 years we made Mike and Mike an interactive experience on your Wii, what would work what wouldn't how much incremental revenue could we generate etc. So it's more like what could be wrong

Some type of "Mike *********'s Punch Out" might sell pretty well. Except by "Punchout" I mean you get to interactively punch him.

In a hour early (no idea why) to move over some activations to our power blades on our 4506 switches. VoIP rollout coming Monday for our nursing building.

I'm starting to have "buyers remorse" Like, did I make the right decision?

Anyway, big today as I wrap things up. Setting the budget for next year

Re: What did you do at work today?
 

This week at work I am reading the entire collection of the Walking Dead. Such a busy week.

AND when I am not reading I will be catching up on shows on Hulu. My work buddy just asked me if I wanted anything from Red Box this morning, that is how slow it is right now! LOL!

I assume when you said you don't care for Mike, but you like Mike, you are referring to Greenie that you don't care for. This as a person or as a radio personality?

Perfectly normal to think that way with any big life decision.

Good luck!

I'm probably not being fair. I haven't found him to be the most cordial person, but maybe he's just a quiet person.

I get that vibe from him(greenie) that he doesn't seem like a outgoing person, which is ironic considering his job deals with the public on a huge level. Golic on the other hand seems like a very outgoing person who you could strike up a conversation with anywhere.

Took the day off since my co-worker took off 3 days last week, (we get 2 for holidays) leaving me solo the whole 3 days we had to work. I decided to stick him with rolling solo for today which I know is going to be busy. Jokes on him. :)

Re: What did you do at work today?
 

It's a no motivation Monday around my parts. Everyone is having a tough time coming off that holiday hangover.
