QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 30, 2005 -> 07:53 AM) And that sounds good and professional, but if the boss takes it personally, he could easily make it worse for you. Agree. I have a pretty good relationship with him outside of work (him and his family have been over to the house for parties, etc.. and him and Jim and my dad bowl together.. so I'm hoping that is in the back of his mind as I tell him this.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Mar 30, 2005 -> 07:37 AM) I wouldn't tell them you are *thinking* about leaving unless you really, really trust the person you are talking to, or are intent on leaving anyway. Something like that rings as a kind of hollow threat, and could only exsaserbate(sp) exsisting problems, IMHO. I would wait until you ARE leaving. The only problem with that is that the "personal reasons" are obvious. I have a script in my head.. something along the lines of "due to personal reasons there is a good possibility that I may have to resign. As to not put you or the company in a bad spot I want to be honest with you and if the worst case ends up happening and I do end up leaving I want you to know that I will do all I can to resolve loose ends and train my replacement..."

Not a rift with the bosses at all.. even though I can't stand my boss he would never suspect as much. This decision is 100% personal.

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Mar 30, 2005 -> 07:27 AM) I would just let them worry about it. If they were to fire you or lay you off they more than likely would not give you any notice. So SCREW EM!! lol I'm in a tough spot because that wouldn't happen... well.. I guess they could fire me, but it wouldn't be a surprise if that were to happen. They've been, for the most part, good to me. I just need a break..

Guys.. what do you think about letting your boss know that there is a possibility that you might be resigning..? Not actually giving the two week notice.. but advising them that there is a possibility that you might be leaving... Good, bad, indifferent..? Trying to be straight with them and not screw them over on some super important projects that I have my hands in that will effect due dilligence proceedures and a lot of stuff with the investors. Or should I say screw it and just give notice and let them worry about it...?

How much/little can I drink * The numbers reflect the BAC for a 160 lbs. lean man, per 8pm -9pm - 2 drinks =3.8/175=.0217 = .0434 9pm -11pm - 2 drinks =.0434 + .0434 - .03 =.0568 11pm -1am - 3 drinks =.0651 + .0568 - .03 = .0919 Elimination 10 percent excreted by breath, sweat, and urine 90 Metabolism Calculating Blood Alcohol Content 1.

QUOTE(winodj @ Mar 29, 2005 -> 04:16 PM) My mom once blew a .38 and that was before her BAC level crested. If you've been pickling yourself in booze for years, you develop an amazing tolerance. BTW, .35 for a diabetic is fatal. .4 is for most people. Wow... I had no idea.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Mar 29, 2005 -> 04:13 PM) IIRC, most people go into a coma at .3. I used to own a breathalyzer back in grad school and have been measured at 0.21. I know it depends on the person's size.. I'm sure I'm near alcohol poisoning near a .1. But a .2 seems like an awful lot.. can't believe no one stopped him.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Mar 29, 2005 -> 03:33 PM) Ed Farmer said something about Wilson Valdez going to Mets? Can't find anything on it, though. They claimed him off waivers.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 29, 2005 -> 02:53 PM) yeah, something tells me that reading is incorrect. I thought that .2 rendors someone nearly comotose...? The legal limit is .08 in Illinois IIRC.

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 29, 2005 -> 08:06 AM) There was also an overturned semi on the ramp from 55 to the Ryan. I guess it spilled glass all over the expressway. I drove in and everything was fine. Must have been pretty early. Cans of mushrooms.. supposedly happened around 2am.

Bowled my first ever 600 series last night. 206, 194, 211. Just barely made it.. I have no idea where this surge has come from. Just 2 years ago I was a 120 bowler by accident. I'm afraid my average is going to get to high I wont be able to maintain it for the tournements.

Believe it or not.. I had not seen Scarface in it's entirety until last night. I hadn't missed much of it.. but they were parts that left me a bit confused. Like when Tony goes to see his mom and sister and tells his friend to leave her alone.. I then wondered what the reason was why Tony killed him so easily later. If anyone is interested Showtime appears to be playing it every night around 10ish.

Jim just asked if I heard from you guys... weird.. So cute.. looks just like you.

QUOTE(T R U @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 12:25 PM) Yeah the mom had 3 white puppies, all were deaf and one of them has one of those blue crazy eyes... The white ones usually always have a problem with them.. my moms friend had a white one they had to put to sleep a while back because it got bone marrow cancer.. but we gave her one of the white puppies, and one of the boys too.. I hope she's taking good care of "my" puppy...

Awww... so cute how they pose for you. Ginger and Abby try to lick the camera every time I try to take a picture of them..

YAS.. any news on the workers..??

QUOTE(T R U @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 11:30 AM) No, I dont know what it was.. it was like a piece of the Soda machine or something.. Those plastic things fall off all the time..

Sorry for hijacking your thread B&S.

QUOTE(T R U @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 12:00 PM) hm.. i dont think they are quite that big, I think they were like 30 or so now.. Ill have to ask my mom later.. but they are gettin pretty big Abby just hit 16lbs.. LOL.. she might gain a few more.

QUOTE(T R U @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 11:51 AM) Oh Steff, youll like this story... Our puppies are 5 months old now, and the other day I was on the computer in my moms room and I left a plate from dinner from the night before on top of the tower.. and she was like "Go throw this out" So I went downstairs to throw it out, and I go take a look out the window, and our white puppy was looking up at the deck, so I looked at the pool and I saw a little splash, well our other puppy fell in.. I had to run out there and jump into the nasty green pool fully clothed to get him out.. he walked around the deck throwing up for like 5 mins, but he was alright.. I am scared to leave them back there alone now, if I wouldnt have gone downstairs he would have died, and now im worried one of them will fall in everytime they are outside.. Ginger's first time on the deck she took a header in also. Scared the s*** out of me.. luckily it was in May and she was ok. Now she doesn't want anything to do with the pool. I had Abby out on the deck the other night when I was in the hot tub and she didn't seem interested in it.. I hope it stays that way. What are they now.. 50-60 lbs..? Post some more pics when you get a chance.

QUOTE(T R U @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 11:42 AM) You dont know who Jessica Alba is?.. she was in that lame show on Fox Dark Angel.. and some other movies and crap... I dunno, im not a fan of her acting... except Idle Hands, that was solid.. and yeah, I found that avatar on some site they post pictures of internet losers, I was like.. man, that is perfect I don't watch that show.. I'm sure if I saw her I would know show she is.. but I don't follow her or anything about her

QUOTE(T R U @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 11:38 AM) Paris is known as a whore because people go out of thier way to get all her personal life in the open.. You could know people that do the same things she does but because they arent a celebrity you would never know it or think of them that way... but yes, I get what your saying.. and I still love her also, the rest of that quote is like... "I could have a one night stand, and I'm the kind of girl who looks over in the morning and is like, 'Do you really have to be here?' so apparently, she has done it Or maybe she was misquoted.. not that it matters... I'm not even sure I know who she is.. Who is that freak in your avitar..???

QUOTE(T R U @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 11:33 AM) Hey, Paris is with her boyfriend when doing her videos, or boyfriend at the time.. she didnt come out and say "I have sex with random guys all the time, and I like it" plus she has people constantly trying to get into her personal life.. hacking into her phone, that Rick Solomon guy leaked the sex tape out.. She didnt come out and put that all out herself.. Bla, bla, bla..... Her picture is next to the word whore in the dictionary. In Jessica's defense... ""I could have a one-night stand....."
