As someone that has been on both sides of the fence (finance and accounting), 1) they are completely different things. 2) Accounting you can get away with not really knowing the business, as long as those debit and credits tie. 3) Depending on your history, you can get away with it by saying that the position wasn't represented fairly to you - but you really only get that card play once because if you start moving that several times, it can get ugly. Over 25 years now, I've had 9 different places of employment. Sometimes it's just hitting the right place at the right time. My current position is one of those situations.

Agreed - see Texas Rangers.

Oh we get a poster reputation score? LOL.

It's amazing your sorry ass isn't around here except when we do a board upgrade.

That's scary stuff. Soxtalk well wishes!

Since it's local to me and all, at least the Sox aren't the Texas Rangers. They are dreadful and have zero payroll flexibility. Texas will have a worse record then the Sox, IMO. Hahn has taken the Cubs/Astros model so it will be 2020 and they'll win 90+. This year? 60-100ish.

This year's weather is insane. It'll be 95 on November 1, when game 7 of the World Series is going on, in some northern state.

It's been some good times. At least I know Gage is alive still.

You may not be able to reach the site sometimes. It's going to depend on where you access from. It takes 24-48 hours to totally stabilize. The intermittency is because you're accessing the site through a different route each time you log in and sometimes it hasn't totally propagated across all the name servers yet for different ISPs.

QUOTE (Knuckles @ Oct 15, 2014 -> 10:11 PM) I live about 15 minutes from Dallas, maybe this is a stupid question but should I be worried? Um, no. Be prudent, not worried. I work with people that are in from all over the world this week, and I am going to Europe in a week in a half. You can't stop living. Just be aware of your surroundings, and be prepared that there's some sick folks who need help, not shunned, every step of the way. P.S. I work 2 minutes from DFW Airport. Big deal. I work with people who live near the neighborhoods effected. Big deal. Again, just be prudent and aware, not worried.
