Meia Gisborn SG Nope, doesn't work in my organization. I'm salaried and my supervisor works in the same department, so I can't "bill" another department for time wasted in unnecessarily long meetings. There are nine other programmers in my functional group who report to him, and we meet every Monday morning for what is diplomatically referred to as a "team status meeting." All nine of us absolutely hate this meeting and endeavour to provide verbal updates as quickly as possible to end the meeting sooner, but our @#$%^&! supervisor will find some way to draaaaaag the frikin' thing on to take up the full allotted hour--and sometimes even beyond that, if the conference room isn't booked for the following hour.
the Bear SG yup.. heck.. i should go sleep on the sofa or something.. but i rather sleep in my room strangely, my back feels better.. however, my neck is killing me
the Bear SG in other news, i bought a kg of swedish meatballs (frozen), 200gm of marinated smoked salmon, a tube of creamed salmon and a tube of creamed crab at IKEA the fishy bits will be sampled tomorrow
littlestream SG Hee hee.............I don't know why management LOVES meetings. No, no.......these people are salaried. When I said billing? I meant internal billings. Just movement of numbers. No actual transactions except for externals. Hey, so those tips on Office Skills can come in handy?
udontknowme SG I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT!!!!!! i was resisting the urge to ask if you bought food...
the Bear SG muahahhahaha the other night when i went there, i bought a bag of liquorice laces.. eating them in my office
the Bear SG Ghana is ahead with 2 undeserved goals... ghanian dude Draman wipes out the US captain Reyna, who is flattened and injured, lying on the deck... but Draman keeps going and scores the goal... the yanks score a fricken beautiful goal.... then the piece of crap ghanian pingpong fella dives and the legally blind ref calls for a penalty i think it's a fix
the Bear SG hey jetta... the yanks are behind in the world cup (the yanks pronounce it sucker) i think it's a fix...
the Bear SG england.. i think they won't get further than the next round.. not with the kind of silly tactics the coach is making them play.. ghana is through to the 2nd round! the czech republic is out...
jetta SG Thanks for the updates. Poor England. *praying for a miracle*. What about the usual strong teams like Brazil and Italy?
