Well, I must say, that the first few minutes my car dealerships waiting room has been uneventful. I thought it would be filled with old women and men, who look like they need a new Depends, parents that let their children roam free and then me. However, it really is just me at the moment, and it is giving me some writers block. Anyway, back to a work related story.
* My boss is great, he really is. A smart guy who won't take shit from anyone. He also seems to have 87 cups of coffee in him at all times. We were going over a project I need to build when he is on vacation, and while talking to Steve and myself....well, take a look.
"Yeah, so we need to show the breakdown of products by channel and rep so that, hey Steve, got any food? Not pretzels, but something with bread?"
The funny thing is not only was he 100% serious, but after Steve told him he had nothing, we just ended the conversation. It ended. So that???? Seriously, I feel like George Costanza when Steinbrenner gives him a job and he has no idea what that job is. Anyway, the guy is classic.
------------------------
Last night I was doing some laundry and I was horrified by some of the parenting. Whenever I become a father, which will not be soon (sorry ladies), I will not let my children play with beer bottles found randomly in the street. Nor will I let my wife get an ass J-Lo would be jealous of. Actually, I have no control over that, but seriously, this lady last night had J-Lo ducking for cover. I think she had to turn sideways to fit through the door.
------------------------
Tivo or no Tivo? That is the question surrounding my life right now. I would like to have some sort of DVR so I can watch the Pens games from the drop of the puck, when I get home, instead of missing the first few minutes or period. But, is it worth the $99 and then the monthly $13 fee? That is what I am pondering, especially after this 30K mile check my car is going through.
------------------------
This is my first Dunkin' Donuts coffee (hot, not iced, because I had a DD iced a while ago, and iced coffee is another story) in a long time. I've been a Starbucks man because of the additional caffeine I needed. Since I was in a rush today, I hit up the drive through and got myself a large. Not too bad, but I like the taste of the Bucks coffee better.
------------------------
2 new front tires and worn brake pads, plus a new wheel alignment? I don't think so. Sorry, I don't got a grand to drop at the moment. Oh wait, remember that Tivo question I was pondering? That is now a 'no' for the moment.
