That sounds like a plan, but I was ready to go back, any longer and things get messy here!

When does work ever end.

I really, REALLY hate when a some one tells me, I can figure out the sq. of tile I need and then I wind up 6 f***ing tiles short and they will not have them till the end of the week.

Wait till they get the bill for the extra time to come back and set every thing back up to finish all to say $ on an extra box of tile.

I usually buy a whole box extra for that very reason. Not to mention if it ever needs to get repaired and spare tiles are needed, the style is inevitably discontinued.

That is the same thing I normally do for people, because it you drop something and break one it is an easy fix IF you have the tile.
Or if a box comes in with a few broken tiles you have a few extras.

Work is work. I wish a smaller company could afford me cause I hate dealing with the politics of the big corporate life. Its gonna give me an early coronary.

What's this nonsense about Aaron not having email access until Saturday due to work. I would imagine his management should be supplying him with an iPhone or Droid to compensate for dragging him away from his loved ones for weeks at a time.

His friggin management didnt even realize he didnt have a laptop till yesterday. He will have my old laptop w/brand new hard drive tommorrow.

You could have gave him a laptop, being as you have that lush computer job.

BTW, when we doin breakfast? Aarons buying, you should see what this guys making.

Any unused laptops I have at this point are older than the one you have. And they also would probably need new drives. The last time I went looking through my stash of laptop drives I kept finding brick after brick (not that they are really heavy enough to be bricks).

I can usually find time for breakfast. Might be going shopping for home brew supplies on Saturday, but I doubt it would be in the morning. Nothing set in stone yet.
