Never signed up. Got lots of spam like "Hey, Boxster, your friend Billy Bob has invited you to Linkedin!".
I got a LOT of those on my work email. Mostly from students (both grad & undergrad) I worked with that listed their entire email address book when they signed up. :D

Probably doubled the safety factor after they got them all glued on.

Maybe tripled. It probably floats.

Be careful when you starting doing your calculations on this. Each of the corks you see is only 1/2 a cork and have been sawed in half lengthwise so they have a flat surface to glue to. Your calc's could be off by a factor of two.

I figured they were or he would have not got such a good looking result.

Did the Google looking for something to do with my corks. Saw that on the Isetta project the guy band sawed them in half. I really do have a lot of them dating back to CWW#2 time. It's a box full, maybe not as big a box as some of you might imagine but respectable sized.



Edit: Checked CL and people be selling (trying) used wine corks. $20/200, $15/250, $5/100. I think I can undercut them at "free".

Not exactly sure.
Does being "turned loose" mean you're out of probation, or you're out of a job? I'm kinda confused here. One would require congratulations, the other commiserations...although from the rest of your post, I'm not sure which applies to which! :D


No longer in training. Meaning the money starts coming, but I will need to do real work. Owner wants me out of training more than I probably do.

Harimad, you must work in the Department of Repetitive Redundancy Department where you are employed.

She works for the Administrative Assistant to the Assistant Administrator.

Okay, now I am reminded of The Rolling Stones song that was the b-side on the 45 for Satisfaction. The song? The Under Assistant West Coast Promotion Man
