And the OT forum gambit comes into play only after you post your OT stuff? lol I'm fairly well aware of the law, and keep up on the news: I read somewhat on the saga of Mr Quaid and spouse over the years, not much for celebrities, so I don't follow their actions in great detail. One thing that comes to mind when thinking about his woes; there is no little irony in the fact that he is a strong Bunkerboy supporter.

One of our nurses was complaining today about how devastated she is. This was not appropriate conversation at the facility. So, she is now unemployed and can complain all she wants from home (plus, she is inside 90 days! So, no unemployment! :-) )

See, we never let the enemy within our walls. I need to talk to our HR girls and let them know to search voter registrations before offering positions to folks.......

I tend to agree with keeping the workplace free of politics; it was the stance I set for my company, even before idiots learned what to think on Facebook, and started voting for felons with narcissistic personality disorder.

As to the tenor of your posts; I hope you will be able to forgive me, for being unable to determine whether you're having fun with it, or not. Such are the times we live in; the last word is yours.

When Al Gore invented the internet he meant for it to be fun and used for good....turns out is is most folks poking fun (like me) and ****. As to your question, yes - just having fun. There is a reason I do not have Facebook, X, MySpace, LinkedIn or any other such garbage....the opinions of strangers on the internet does not alter my life in any way. What is funny, how so many get so triggered by wise-crack comments by strangers on the internet.

On the forum, we are pretty much a Peaceful Tribe. Fact is, we see another person in a Benz, we wave, we appreciate and we have something in common that is real.
