1. A sales rep at the Foster City office named Mohammed, who called my boss several times a day all week wanting to know when the project he wanted done would be finished. He also gave this nice shot-in-the-dark guess as to the size of the site I had to review. He said 40-60 pages. It was over 200. I averaged about 5 hours of sleep per night ( Read more... )

That sucks. It basically means that while I may still have the job and the 40 hour weeks and whatnot, I won't get any benefits/paid holidays/ ( Read more... )

It's a dark blue 1992 Mazda 626. And it's MINE, all MINE!!!!!!! Everything is okie dokie with it. We thought there might be a little issue with the transmission, but now it's looking like Corina just isn't used to a 4-cylinder wussy engine and needs to go a little easier on the gas pedal. Duh. Getting the A/C tweaked later this week, cuz it ( Read more... )
