@I'm not joking: I agree, my mother is a whore. I really advise going to the doctor and getting checked for STDs.

The next question is relating to "health ""insurance"" activities".: First, a given ratio, that being Insurance Benefits (IB) cost = Base salary (BS) X (.25) + (.01X NB)"number of benefits". On salary, say $50,000.00 per year, for Altius HB coverage... — read more

What is this $46,000,000 billing mistake SAP made? And why did corporate have to get a $100,000,000 loan to pay CSW's payroll?

@Michael Clayton: Stop hitting "refresh" after you post. It re-posts every time. Also, where/when did you hear the CSE RIF rumor?

We are here to dissuade, and encourage, your life. We are watching you!

Damn right! Sure, it was fun, nothing necessarily wrong with giving treats to your puppies (look at Google, you get massages and naps). The treats at CSW were fine, from corporate perspective, as long as the sales were nailed down and the product... — read more

I used to have so many co-workers I counted as friends. Most of them are now gone and the few that are left are so jaded that they feel they can trust no one. Mornings are so hard these days.
