August 29, 201213 yr To the strippers? Congrats, MPI! What'll you be doing? Edited August 29, 201213 yr by jvlgato
August 29, 201213 yr Means I'm probably going to still be in the area for a little while longer, let's meet up sometime!Yeah, we need to do that.
August 29, 201213 yr What'll you be doing? Still working out the details, but the company specializes in DAQ products. Yeah, we need to do that. Cool, I'll message you about it soon.
August 29, 201213 yr Well, fuck. By being a clumsy oaf and general purpose idiot, I just cracked the screen on my Macintop and rendered it useless. This complicates any plans I had both short and long term. I'd be angry, but right now that's counter productive.
August 30, 201213 yr Sometimes it's worth it to replace the screen yourself and sometimes you might as well just buy a new one. Depends on the model. You should check this link out but there's a few places to buy replacement screens/assemblies. http://www.screentekinc.com/
August 30, 201213 yr Thanks Mike, Anurag, and Chris, I appreciate it. Now if only a certain professor would get back to me about my studying with him, I'd be a pretty happy camper.
August 30, 201213 yr Spent the afternoon with Santa Ernie and his wife and daughter from Miami, who were here on a cruiseship. Gave them the nickel tour, had lunch out at Rum Point, showed them some off-the-beaten-path places, etc. Nice people. They didn't kill me and I didn't kill them. Everyone was happy. You never know with strangers you meet online...
August 31, 201213 yr Had an email argument with my boss. Such a douchebag. I hate him. He expressed to me how unhappy he was that there wasn't movement on a certain front, when in fact he should be happy that my priorities are straight and that I'm concentrating on the front that will allow our company to keep the contract.
August 31, 201213 yr Had a decent, productive day at work. Went for a good, 36 mile ride after work. Picked up Thai food on the way home and had a good dinner with the wife after kiddos were in bed. All in all, a decent day.
August 31, 201213 yr Congrat Justin. Thanks. Had an email argument with my boss. Such a douchebag. I hate him. He expressed to me how unhappy he was that there wasn't movement on a certain front, when in fact he should be happy that my priorities are straight and that I'm concentrating on the front that will allow our company to keep the contract. Makes me mad just reading this.
August 31, 201213 yr I'm over it. He's an idiot. When you start an email with "I don't mean to sound like an ass, but..." -- guess what? I'm fully expecting you to sound like an ass. In fact, you probably sound more like an ass because of my expectations than you would if you hadn't said that. He ended the argument with, "I don't have time for this." -- Exactly! With that one sentence, he told me exactly how important this is.
August 31, 201213 yr Author Sitting in our room at the Hilton Rosemont. Tomorrow Karen and her sister do the Chicago Hell Run at Hawthorne Park.
August 31, 201213 yr Came home from vacation, a gorgeous week in Southern Maine. Had been keeping my eye on work, and a project that's been poorly run and is late. The VP for our LatAm Operations and I had a great chat today, though, and I allayed his fears; and his proposed changes made my life a bit easier. So I'll put some weekend time in and calm things down some more. Nice to know one is needed.....of course, if the project was run right to begin with, I would be just another cog and no one would be panicking..... Nice to be back here reading up on things, too!
