Sometimes you just need to scream!!!

I know. I couldn't help it.

Was this going to be "at least you have a job."

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHHHHH! :angry:

What happened?

Did you go to Dan & Whit's, they didn't have it, but you did need it?

I found out earlier that a group of us are going to get publicly lectured at 1pm for not taking over a project that the person lecturing us totally dropped the ball on. We've been scrambling all week trying to pick up the pieces. It's going to get ugly...wish me luck.

Just think about the snow in Boulder that you will be enjoying soon...

Good luck, Fraz. I hope he didn't chew you up and spit you out.

Can we create the EB Panic Squadron for situations like Fraz's?

Will be composed of a lot of h34r: h34r: h34r: to punish whoever dares to mess with an EBer.

 

[FLBuff PE]

I like it. A squad of ninja-neers?

Guess who I'm going with?

Actually she started reaming us out (called it "abhorrant" and a "failure" of the system) but was quickly shut down when someone called her out on it. THen the whole meeting warped into something like, "here is me passing the project onto you". It was very bizarre. I kept my mouth shut to avoid a long, painful plane ride next week.

They can't do that to our pledges. Only we can do that to our pledges!

HAHAHA I live for those moments.

You be wise, grasshopper!

Wiser than I ever was at the utility. The term we used for my occasional behavior in meetings was "Lighting yourself on fire". There were a couple of occasions I remember looking across a table at my boss knowing full well that both of us were thinking "who's turn is it to put a stop to this foolishness".

LOL I love it!

In my "former life", which I hated, I used to have to go to business dinners with large groups, including the one that we all hated. I had the reputation for speaking up and getting myself in trouble, so I developed a strategy. I would order wine as soon as we sat down and keep sipping it. That would mellow me out. Then, as soon as the bread was put on the table, I would keep a piece in my hand and try to have a little in my mouth at all times.

No talking with food in your mouth!

Unfortunately, it has been my experience that drinking tends to make peole want to 'get a few things off my chest.'

Why is it, that when 20 people tell somebody that something is a shitty idea, that guy chooses to listen to the one guy that came up with the shitty idea in the first place?

 

[Santiagj]

"Hey, I don't want you to think I was evesdropping, but I heard you say...."

That is evesdropping you bucket au douche.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I teamed up with an architect on a master planning process for a school campus. My portion of the work was going to be an asbestos and hazardous building material survey of the entire campus. Would have amounted to billing half of my salary. The good news: the architect got the work. The bad news: the school decided that they had 'sufficient' hazrdous material information on their buildings, so my part of the proposal was dropped. :i_cry:

Ouch!!

When it comes to hazardous materials, especially asbestos, isn't a state inspector/certification required? Did they have such a certification?
