Maybe Star Wars and Men In Black movies are actual documentaries?

I think they need to hire all of us.  We can come up with some cool places to have offices and travel to protect the planet.

NASA has a new position open to protect the planet from aliens.  The sallary is $187,000 which seems low given the responsibility.

They took the article down.  LOL

This paper was totally bogus, and written by a scientist that was getting fedup with multiple respictable journals publishing bad papers.  He submitted this paper to 4 medical journals, and 3 of them published it.  One rejected it.  Two of the three have removed it from their website. Then...

Look at what I found in the American Research Journal of Biosciences: https://arjonline.org/uploads/articleInPress/2/70118ARJB2017005.pdf

I start on Monday.  Going through benefits, the difference in insurance alone is a 10K bump in cash plus free life insurance.  It is nice to work for a real company that is run like a business.

I got the offer letter from my previous employer for a Sr. Engineer position with a slight raise.  So less responsibility and headaches for more money.  Actually being in a good company as a manager would be less headaches than anything in a dysfunctional company.

P.S.  We would not mind a move to Colorado if we can find something in the Colorado Springs, or Denver/Boulder/Golden area.  My biosystems engineering would go great in beer production.

Some of the companies are hiring back slowly while the service companies have been making cuts.  We will see what happens.  I did have a good call from HR of my former employer.  Hopefully something there works out.  I have also been trying to work something into the pipeline companies.  One of...

Still waiting on a call.  Yes about the Saudi Arabian princes.  I used to have a lower ranked prince reporting to me for a year when I was at TDW.  He once went on a long rant how the higher level princes with all of the $$$ are basically drug addicts flying drugs, and lots of crazy stuff.  It...

I still haven't heard back from the recruiter.  Hopefully I hear something today.  I am also networking into Williams Pipeline, and trying other places.

After talking to some previous direct reports who left my company I got laid off from last year, I called my old boss who was forced to lay me off from corporate.  He is an old school guy that worked his way up to a Senior Manager the hard way without college.  He was in tears when he laid me...

Well, I was let go today.  Sales have been anemic for the year after a record last year. Hopefully I can find something fast in the Tulsa area.

I would petition the city to change the officers title to Roadway Tax Collector, and have a wimpy looking uniform for them.  Change the definition from traffic fines to traffic tax.  Then only allow Roadway Tax Collectors enforce traffic laws.  If you want to speed, you can pay the speeding tax...
