Were you at least wearing underwear?

You can say that again. I actually tore a seam out in those pants climbing out of my race car at our wedding! My doctor is still going crazy trying to figure out why I'm the only person locked at home for over a year due to COVID-geddon who is shedding major weight with no explanation.

Yes. I was in front of the closet door, looking to see if I had any office apparel left that actually fit me semi-properly. (I have a meeting with the president at work next week, and sweat pants are not going to cut it.) Sadly, I do not have a single pair of dress pants in my entire wardrobe that don't fit like potato sacks.....

Sold two cars. Which results in a total of 16 cars sold this month. Hit two bonuses this month also

I went out for vacation July 8th- July 14th. I only had 1.5 cars out. Went to work on July 15th and sold 15.5 cars.

Feel like a rockstar. Not salesman of the month yet. I always end up 2nd

I've hardly been selling cars for 3 months.

upstatedoc · 07-31-2021, 09:14 PM

You're making good money in a sellers market. I owned my BMW for five years and every time I was in the dealership there were always new salesman. Something to keep in mind

M5Rick · 08-13-2021, 08:51 AM

I put this up

UncleWede · 08-13-2021, 10:14 AM

Friday the 13th

Windows updates to Exchange server and AD controller - check
Email works again - check
Walked across the x-walk to get covfefe and didn't get hit - check

Is it 5 o'clock somewhere???

vreihen16 · 08-13-2021, 10:30 AM

Although I know better than to plan *anything* working in IT on Friday the 13th, I will be living dangerous this afternoon and migrating a department's busy WordPress web site onto a new server.....

Later, we are doing a mock-migration of the PD CAD services from a single Windows server to the dual VM/SAN configuration.

What could possibly interrupt 5 o'clock????

Co-workers are getting the pool together, for tonight and Saturday, $4 for each. I had $0.00 in my wallet, so went over to ATM. Since somebody spotted me the original $8, I didn't want to show up with a $20. Went from ATM to liquor store and bought $5 scratcher (Monopoly) Scratched barcode, scanned for Second-Chance, Sorry, you are a winner.

Got back to work, paid my $10/$2 change, and told them I was waiting for them to share in the excitement and good luck that I had won. They didn't believe me. Scanned, $50!

Bonk! · 08-13-2021, 12:44 PM

took my first running steps 6 months after having my Achilles sewn back together.

Glad I decided to cash out and take my $50 to dinner then! That should be good for 3 decent Old Fashioneds
