Year 30 - hmmm..... that tooth has gotta come out.

Year 31 - OK, time for an implant (that's when I say screw it, I'll just chew on the other side).


Yep, it all started with a routine check up -

I've never had anything surgical, but I've had plenty of work done.

I dunno. She came to the U.S. in '56. When did it start?

Widespread use in the US was about 1945 (1944 for the military).

I suppose one of the nice things about working in IT security is that many of us shy away from social media. I'll be asked to be a reference from time to time, but never had a request to approve something on LinkedIn.

anyone else ever want to pummel some one at work so you will get fired and be able to enjoy at least one thing before you go?

Nah, I'm more subtle with my revenge.

I've always said if I won the lottery I wouldn't quit my job, just come to work with a whole new attitude and see how long it took for them to fire me.

"Well, that is dumb as spit, I think I won't do that"
"Just because you started the meeting 20 minutes late doesn't mean I am going to stay beyond the scheduled end time"
"I'm going to lunch now, would you like me to bring you back a beer?"

My boss and I have had this conversation. The way he worded it is "lottery winnings have a way of increasing someone's honesty."

The jail time would counter any pleasure I got from it.

Me as well. For 28 years that has just kept moving me up the ladder.

I would call in retired. On second thought, I wouldn't even bother to call in.
