The Coffee House

Smoke reminded me that landlines are good for calling your cell when you've lost it.

Gary's watch has a "Find Phone" app which causes the phone to ring. Gary uses that app so much that the tires need to be rotated.

I use it even when I don't really need to. Like I know I put it down in the living room, but I don't feel like looking that hard.

Son reenlisted for probably the last time. This will get him in the 20 year range. I am so proud of my Marine. He is coming home for Christmas and then goes back to Virginia Beach after the New Year. Okinawa was a great experience for the grand kids, fantastic education. Man, he just keeps getting even more ripped. He is a work out monster.

Oorah!

PS- On Gary's behalf, please thank your son for his sacrifices. God Bless him.

That is on the evil end of the spectrum. Gary used to run political campaigns ... may I suggest you also include the phone number of the campaign manager on your list as they are the one who is directly responsible. (Tell the telemarketer that you work days, so call in the middle of the night

Hadn't thought about the campaign manager. One of our local state reps, is an A.... as is his family, so I generally include his fathers and brothers phone numbers in the list. Like to spread the crap around. LOL

Buenas Dias Coffee Hosers. It is 63F on the slightly overcast morning. The temps should break into the low 70's today. Gary awoke earlier than normal in order to clear his calendar for a wine run to Temecula. It is 49F in Temecula but forecasted to warm to to the low 70's also. Which is good because it will be a group outing with Mary Lou, Maggie and Gary. Mary Lou has a small SUV and the back is laid flat for Maggie. This will be Miss Maggie's first trip to Temecula. We will see how much retention she has from her Sommelier training.

Tomorrow is the federal holiday for Veteran's Day, so banks will be closed.

It's not the end of the world, and if they're going to choose a paycheck to mess up -- at least its the middle of the month, and not the end of the month, haha. But seriously. It shouldn't be that hard.


In other news...we finally had a true killing frost today. 29* when I left the house this morning. Nothing better than the frost "smell" with leaves still blowing around.

Calculate the interest until it's paid and send them a bill for that amount.

Like that would work ... this isn't Canada ... (random emjoi)

If you don't have one I highly suggest a harness that clips to the seat belt. Several years ago I had our Boxer in the front seat of my pickup (not in a harness because she was such a good car rider). I was involved in accident, during which she was ejected. Fortunately she survived but there was a lot of trauma that could have been avoided. Since then none of our fur babies rides without being in a safety harness.

Nor does ours... missed the bit where this was a gummint job. Regardless, I would still do it, and pay the service fee to turn it over to a collection agency. Never hurts to try and get the message across.

 

[Gary A.]

Yes! Additionally, out here it is mandated by law, to have your dog tethered in the truck bed.

Well, not since that guy that " wasn't a crook ".

It’s unbelievable how bad some people are at their job. My wife’s maternity leave ended 2 weeks ago. All along the way she had to redo and resubmit paperwork to her payroll office because they continually erred. She had to go to her union multiple times to have things fixed.

Now...she didn’t get paid today. We don’t know why, but I’m guessing it’s because no one ever actually returned her “to work” on their system. This, of course, after 5 rounds of paperwork between them, my wife, her union rep and her doctors to confirm her return date.

I hope she's in a position to camp out in the Payroll office until someone manually creates her check, and hands it to her. The fault is theirs and they need to right it - immediately. Every organization I've worked for, large or small, would get her a manual check ASAP, so she could get it to the bank today.
