Mmmm, ooh the cookies are warm and chewy.Math Is Hard said:
Bless you my child.
(no Danger, they're not Candy Pants)Better than that. Sorry to hear about yours. I'm not sure that I'm going to express this properly, but I hope you weren't really close to the guy.Evo said:
OMG.. how'd he die?Evo said:Ever just had one of those days?
Today has been one. Started out this morning when my co-worker, male, aged 32, seemed in perfect health, keeled over and died.
what a depressing day...
even worse...
Should you buy the bulbs or get your breaks fixed?
I've had bad days, but are you all right?
groceries, bulbs, or brakes?
pillow, groceries, bulbs, or brakes?I forgot the dog was in my bedroom and he peed on my favorite goosedown pillow.There is no saving it.
Great!
Math Is Hard said:Damn, Evo! I'm sorry! That sucks!

Did you know him well?)I did and that was wonderful! Thanks! I am going to have to share this at work tomorrowEvo said:
It made me feel a bit inadequate - I kept thinking, geez, that tech support person is so much more polite than I am. I really need to work on my attitude! Rats...Evo said:
Not close friends, he was my partner for awhile (we work on teams) and I speak to him everyday. His wife is due to have labor induced on Friday,they already have a two year old. My boss spoke to her trying to keep her calm. We guess it could be a brain aneurysm. At least that's how I'd like to go, just not that soon. You're talking to him one minute, then he's dead.Danger said:
Yes, we worked closely on some large accounts. Hi office is close to mine. My boss predicts that we will all be dead from stroke, heart failure or brain aneurysm before longMoonbear said:Sorry to hear that Evo. I'll be right over to comfort you, and I'll bring lightbulbs. Just save some of that Haagen Dazs...that food thread made me hungry too and I just can't find anything to satisfy my pie craving!
(On a serious note, that's really sad about your co-worker.

Yes, he was very polite. See how nice he was to the janitor? And clearing his manager's calendar so he could recover from his injury was very sweet of him too. I think my favorite part was where he unplugged his coffee pot and plugged in the server and told them to try again...another happy customer. Grr...I'm pretty sure my long-distance carrier already outsourced. I had the most awful time trying to understand the customer service person who answered the phone last time I called to change my calling plan. I'm not even that bad at understanding accents, so I don't know how some people can understand her at all! I had to ask her to repeat everything about 3 times to understand. Of course it was only worsened that I was calling from my cell phone and the signal wasn't completely clear that day. Well, they'll find it's going to take a lot longer to get through each call if everyone has to ask them to repeat everything multiple times to understand them. (I wonder what will happen if my mom has to call...she's slightly hard of hearing and can't even understand a southern accent let alone a foreign accent!)We went through this silly phase for a while where we were answering the phones with ridiculously bad Indian accents to prepare the users for our inevitable outsourcing. We had to knock it off finally, but shoot, it was fun while it lasted!

Wow, that's really sad. Somehow it always seems so much sadder to me when there's a kid on the way...poor kid will never even know his/her daddy. I think I'm going to cry now. yomamma said:
Should we ruin him now, or let him mingle for a few days?cronxeh said:GET HIM!
Jason, you're in for a rough time. And I'm finally the onw who makes it for you!Moonbear said:Congratulations, you just got promoted. You're no longer the thread newbie! So, what should we make Jason do? First, let's see if he can make decent coffee before we decide if we will let him stay.
Evo said:This is very much like what happened a few years ago, I had to spend three week in Atlanta for a Convention, so my next door lady, a few years younger than me and and had daughters my girls ages agreed to keep them. Everything seemed ok for the first days, then one night I was preparing for a presentation and my daughter called me at the hotel to let me know that they couldn't wake up the girls mother that morning, she had died during night. They were all alone in a house with a dead woman.
Nah, it will be fun! We will ply Zz with alcohol and both marry him. He sounds like he's man enough for both (plus we get fresh baked bread, strogonoff and blueberry cake. Hey, he's too good to let go of!Moonbear said:
Then blueberry pancakes won't help a bit. You'd better stick to the buckwheat.cronxeh said:want pancakes.. now..

Well, not quite the double-PF wedding we had been hoping for at the beginning of the year, but I suppose it will do. Evo said:I forgot the dog was in my bedroom and he peed on my favorite goosedown pillow.
