I despise East coast people scheduling meetings during my lunchtime...

At my former employer I worked mainly with a supplier in the U.K. Of course we needed to have our daily meetings even on Fridays when they all leave at noon. So we had to have it before they left. I really hated it when we were on 9/80's and it was my Friday off.

Goes hand in hand with me.... I despise west coast people thinking I'm still at work at 7pm!

I don't understand some people. Especially the dingleberry in that charity thread.

Sometimes I have people in the east schedule meetings at 6:30 or 7am CT. Terrible.

Saw he posted, and since I know his style I wonder how he was going to turn that story into a negative.

The airports or the charter airlines ISU uses?

That charter airline

Once a year there is Lululemon overstock sale somewhere in the Twin Cities. The neighborhood ladies all make a day trip out of it. Maybe they hold some sort of similar event in Omaha.

JC knows this because he specifically goes thru and checks his creepshot rig the week prior to this event. Gotta make hay while the sun shines, right JC?

Nice. Anything is better than Miami Air.

I'm sorry - I've been 8-5 M-F for over 30 years now. What is a 9/80?

80 hours in 9 days instead of 10. So basically I worked 9 hours a day and had every other Friday off. It was awesome.

In our group of 4 people two people rotated Mondays off and the other two of us rotated Fridays off.

I started to give terrible project manager props for putting together a real dinner tonight (even though I can't attend) instead of Uno's.

So I take that back. We are meeting 9-4 today and there is no lunch. It's on our own. Yesterday it was provided. Last time it was provided. Like, I don't really care if we do or don't, how about you just ******* let me know prior to 12:10pm the day of. You know, so I know whether or not to bring a damn lunch. Just like it'd be nice to get a damn agenda the week of so I know which days I'm actually needed. Goddamn, this **** pisses me off. I can tell my coworkers are like wtf, no lunch? Plus there was a whole debacle this morning where someone else took over the meeting because the pm has no clue what is going on. UGH.

Abby Faber thread.

What's the charity thread?

Abby Faber in the football forums. Its sad to see someone look for something to be negative about in that.

Yeah, but not surprised when I saw who it was.

I don't know anything about his posting history but based on the name, I guess I shouldn't be surprised :twitcy:

He might be the first person I put on ignore. I'm not sure he's capable of being a non-douchecanoe

I prefer the term long-distance artistic imagery recording equipment. I share notes with WDSM.

Freeloaders.

I don't know if it was denial or what but even when I had a good feeling we were going to be laid off first thing that day I still took a lunch. I was back at the house by 8:30.
