[Scott Allen Abfalter]

I am the team lead of a software development team working C/C++ and Java on UNIX systems for a telecom infrastructure company.

Unfortunately, I don't have a La-Z-Boy.   Would not get as much work done if I were that comfortable at work!

 

[TalonClaw]

I'm a Senior Analyst in the IT department of a very Large Bank.   I have a La-Z-Boy at home but at work they frown on those kinds of luxuries.

[Dogmatix!]

I'm a Financial Analyst in charge of the internal management and financial reporting for the brokerage segment of American Express Financial Advisors (AEFA).


Did I mention I hate math and was a political science major (with emphasis on foreign policy and interational relations) and minored in German?  I'm still trying to figure out how math has become my life...

Storm, I have one word for you. SHUTUP!    

[Capt. Mike]

Storm, you may be retired, but even 50% doesn't pay for everything..gonna need that replacement car, computer or TV some day.  My goal is retire @ 55 on my miltary retirement...6 1/2 more years.

[Stormbringer]

I know but it's fun while it lasts. I'm working on a second career even now.  Just thought I'd rib every one while I could.

[Capt. Mike]

Don't blame you..took my 90 days terminal leave and the 20 days the USAF gave me for a permissive TDY to look for a job...110 days of just kicking the cat and making sure the kids got to school...then it was back to work..

just that we never have to worry about making a house note or utilities or food if we find ourselves without work. Makes life a whole lot less stressful from then on.


We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.

Hehe, Just for Dogmatix.

Written By A Very Wise Man.

I was driving to work yesterday when I observed a female driver
cut right in front of a pickup truck, causing him to have to drive on to
the shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver
enough so that he hung his arm out his window and gave the woman the
finger.

"Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself. I ALWAYS smile nicely
and wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in
traffic, and here's why:-

I drive 80 km each way every day to work. That's 160 km each day.
Of these, 40 km each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the
bumper-to-bumper
is on a 4-lane freeway. Therefore, there are 3 other cars every 10
metres
for 80km per day. That works out to be 300 cars every km, or 24,000
cars.

Even though the rest of the 40-km is not bumper-to-bumper, I figure I
pass
at least another 10,000 cars. That brings the number to something like
34,000 cars that I pass every day. Statistically, females drive half of
these. That's 17,000 women drivers! In any given group of females, 1 in
28
has PMS. That's 607.

According to Woman's Day, 75% describe their love life as Dissatisfying
or
unrewarding. That's 455. According to the National Institute of Health,
24%
of all females have seriously considered suicide or homicide. That's
109.
And 37% describe men as their biggest problem. That's 40.

According to the National Rifle Association, 2.5% of all females carry
weapons, and this number is increasing. That means that EVERY SINGLE
DAY,
I drive past at least one female that has a lousy love life, thinks men
are
her biggest problem, has seriously considered suicide or homicide, has
PMS,
and is armed.

Give the woman the finger? ... I THINK NOT!

Yikes, SirGod!  lol...


Of course, in Phoenix, most of us have learned to keep our road-related righteous indignation to ourselves, since the person you're thinking of giving the finger probably has a gun and will shoot...heheh.
