I'm on page 36, but this is going to take a while between selling my house and packing sh!t.
In the meantime, a couple stories for you guys.
To prove my bluntness...
There was a lady in our office that was weird in her own right. She was one of them thar vegans (no offense to anyone who saves all the good stuff for the rest of us). However, she tended to binge on things and have "issues." One day she complained to me that she had eaten a whole LARGE bag of trail mix and gotten sick. I told her that "If you can get taken out by a bag of trail mix, you've got issues!" (Everyone got such a kick out of me telling her that, that they never let me forget it.)
Stupid stuff I did...
(More than 20 years ago) I broke the glass on the COL's desk by leaning against it trying to help someone figure something out on the computer. EMBARRASSED! The COL was cool about it. He told the guys to throw it away and the next COL coming in could replace it if they wanted. In my defense (?), it was raised on little "feet" but then again I should have realized it.
First job ever and as a student trainee, I went to format a CD and ended up formatting C drive. (My degree was computer information systems.) I was 18 and I played dumb. Of course I realize that they knew exactly what I did. Thankfully there was a complete backup.
I'm sure I'll be reminded of more things as I go. Sorry, no Monkey Foot stories here. Although, I do like "Finding Bigfoot" and bigfoot documentaries.
planning, saving, and...finally RETIRED!

House is sold! Search for the RV starts soon.
