Just went to grab a coke from the work fridge and almost grabbed this. Wtf?

Now that is an evil trick. "Mmmm coke. Nope not coke, Mmmm beer. Gah!"

I am. She wants me to install Lync on my machine. Here's the situation, she claims it is so she can share my screen. i've been working remotely for a number of years and have done quite fine without sharing screens with anyone. I think it's a BS excuse to watch how much time I idle on my PC. Either way, does anyone really think that I somehow managed to keep my job and produce the numbers and work I produce by literally not sitting at my desk all day?

Who is we? You and Psylocide?

Well that is great, actually!

With Lync, you can always set it to always be set as available. You can beat her trickiness that way.

I hope that is true. It is not that I dick around all day, but I don't like to be watched. I get my work done, I do more than I am supposed to do, and I don't complain. Well, I complain that my computer is using 90% of its RAM most of the time running outlook and excel only. They refuse to give me 4 GB, I am running 2 GB on win 7.

Water. Head hurts.

Yeah, we have it at my work. Its always amusing seeing someone who has been away for many months. Its freaking annoying though. Some people love the thing and will message you with it from right beside you.

It can be a huge PITA when you're trying to get something done and you get half a dozen IMs come in. Or the person who IMs you and when you don't reply immediately proceeds to call to make sure you go the IM.

Water ... at least it's the downhill side of the day.

I think the bigger problem is you guys still IM each other... :D
 
You're going to be waiting a while.

No ****?


I'm trying to decide what to brew this weekend... part of me wants to do the cream ale again, but I know I need to get a stout or robust porter going and so much other stuff. Brewing sucks.

I realize slum lords are trained to never leave a paper or electronic trail of their activities so they can deny everything in court, but that doesn't fly in the corporate world. ;)

In other news, Untapped reports a sharp 18% decline in daytime check-ins today ...
 
Coke.

Trying to decide what my pitch will be for teaching a beer class at a local cooking/kitchen store.

So many topics, what do you guys think?

Beer always pairs well with food. You know, like bacon, hamburgers and barbecue. :rockin:

So did the Un-American Activities Committee railroad you yet?


No, but I got a lot of calls from people wanting to know why they are getting calls asking about me. My job feels like the last week of high school right now.... Don't have a clue what I am gonna do with my life... But am pumped about my time here coming to an end. Had a nice long talk with one of my best friends in the company last night. I stayed in the field and he went the home office route. As he put it to me: "we need you, but this shyt is beneath you. Just move on and hire me in a year." Best plan to date.
 
I'm wondering if "beerdrink" isn't one of the many accounts from a different troll user dumb enough to admit in the announcements section that they have multiple accounts...

My APA.
 
Where you been, brewed, cleaned and half in the bag.still gotta pitch yet though.
I'll check the temp and pooch needs a walk,he's very happy without the cone.
Finishing up the Flanders. View attachment 298708


Lunch with a 1 yo combined with a dog that hadn't seen me in 48hrs that wouldn't let me leave on time this morning has slowed things down to a crawl.
