    If you do the math on 600 per week, it comes to 15 dollars per hour. 600x52/2080. Let that sink in.

    Don't forget to include the no state/federal tax into the equation. It actually equates to over $20 per hour.

    Had I been on employment I would have gotten somewhere in the neighborhood of a $5 per hour raise.

    Why the hell is is so difficult to come out and discuss objects against objectives, why is it so hard to realize solutions? Why can you not possibly identify barriers and figure work arounds. I have given you every single opportunity to figure it out without micromanaging, yet you fail to negotiate because you are either lazy or soft. Why is it so hard for people to deal with conflict? I see emails from sales guys fleeing negotiation, and yet you get a commission. Could not knock a sick whore off a piss pot.

    Rain has now rescheduled baseball for my boys 3 of the last four games in the past two weeks. As much as I love baseball season, I don't want to be out there when the temps start hitting 100F. :rant:

    Talked to a friend back home about it. Said people are panic buying, but distrubutiom center in Spartanburg SC has plenty of stores in reserve, they were 70% operational last Saturday and there shouldn't be an issue short term. He did say almost all the stations were out or had long lines today.

    Ever have your better half wake in a bad mood and keep that bad mood all day? Happened to me. She did make dinner and just called me honey, so I think I'm safe for now. Gonna have to stay on my toes though. Wish me luck.

    Go out of your way to do something nice. Mine sometimes wakes up ready to tear the world a new ahole, couple bars of chocolate go a long way. And not some uber expensive stuff, just the fact that I stopped at the store kinda thing.

    Keep you head on swivel. If you're really feeling brave, "honey, something seemed like it was bugging you this morning. Want to talk about it?"

    Slow lane mergers. Slowly moving over to the other lane 1 inch every 20 yards.

    Tried that around lunch time and got an "I don't know why." So I increased distance and adjusted my tone for the rest of the day.
