Kids are not in school one week...My glands in my throat are swollen to the size of golf balls, I cant swallow, my voice sounds like I have been to a concert, and I am sore as heck all over.

H1N1? :LOL2:

Tonight, after taking the summer off from league play, I played my first sand volleyball league game (against one of my old teams). Last 1.5 weeks I was working the legs out to get the jump back, which is soooo much harder now that I'm on the backside of the 30's :? Sould have started months ago. It must have worked pretty good - there was just enough improvement that I was encouraged to keep it up! So came home and worked them again - Just about passed out tonight afterwards! I don't remember it being this hard in the past....

Oh, we won the game - great game too. They were up for it, we were up for it. We split the first two games. The last game was solid play - whoever got the first run of 2 consecutive points was going to win. Fortunatly, it was us!

Just had some guy pull up to my car and start yelling. Rolled the window down (at 55 mph) and listened. He said 'slow the _ down you _ _ _ , you almost ran that car off the road, you _ _ _. _ _ ..." Didn't hear the rest because I just rolled the window up and went on.

Apparently his reason for doing this was my driving down the 4 lane highway at 60 (55 mph limit). Him and another car merged from an overpass, ignoring the big red YIELD sign at the merge (they never slowed a bit). Yeah, I came within 50 feet of bumping the car BEHIND him, because they never merged into traffic properly. When they jerked in front of me (not making use of the shoulder if they needed to) , they forgot where the accelerator was and kept on at 30. All the cars I was with passed them up - and went around me. I slowed so I didn't hit them. Then I passed them (still going 30) in the left lane and this yahoo caught up to me...

Crazy people. I can see if I did something wrong, but 60 in a 55 is nothing on this road...65-70 is the common speed.
 
My last day at work... I'm sitting here surfing for good Fall Pattern bass articles. Five and a half years at this crazy place and am looking forward to starting at the new digs on Monday. I think I'll go fishing tomorrow (rain or shine).

So are you going to make it all day? You have to, just to say goodby to all the fine folks you've worked with.

Fishing is good medicine!

I was reading fall bass articles the last two days and still don't know what to expect. Maybe you could start a thread with what you find?
 
I more or less just came in today to say goodbye to a few last folks and to have a last lunch with my normal lunch buds. After that I'm handing in my badge and heading out.

Nice to leave on good terms. I just got to the point where I couldn't deal with all the offshoring. Very excited about my new job. I get to be a software developer once again and not just writing documentation to tell someone else how to do something that I could have done in the time it took me to tell them how to do it :)

So don't developers have to document as well? :wink: At least they always wanted me to document it all. Almost 700 pages of crap on 100's of applications - which was written, labeled, sorted, etc for the IT group. The IT manager met with me before I left to pick up documentation and spend a few hours on where the projects were and what I had done since I got there. He listened for 5 minutes, heard something he didn't like, closed his notebook, said his goodby and left all documents there -said he didn't need them (arrogant guy)... Then blamed me for not documenting when TWO YEARS later something blew up (his group changed an input source- which he would have know had he taken the documentation). My name was tossed under the buss for 2 weeks till my old boss called me at my new job. I offered to come fix it, but having a accountant come fix a program was a worse solution for IT than fixing it themselves. It was a 1 hour fix - max - even for a newby. Funny how that all works. You brought back some memories!
