In the morning, I do change my underwear, brush my teeth and towel wash my armpits with soap and water. My beer belly allows for water to drip from my abdomen, saving my browns. The last thing I do is put a good shine on my shoes. |

It takes over 5 minutes each way at our hub. Over the course of a year that is over 1000 m inutes. That's about 16 plus hrs of OT
about $700 a year.
35 years ......that;s about $25,000.00
if you put that money every year in an S&P mutual fund for your IRA , that money would be worth well over $150,000.00
that ain't chump change. |

Rep Power: 1002 | Re: i want to file a grievance this is ridiculous I'm in management. I get paid for thinking about work Double-time when I'm drunk (every night). Triple-time when i dream about work (also every night).
I have an old Sea-Lawyer friend that is currently doing case research work to see if I qualify for the equivalent of Quintuple-time for alcohol-induced dreams.
Unfortunately, my hourly rate is down to less than minimum wage.
I need some advice....... |
