Heavens no! I'd jump from the roof if that were the case.
Most are back and forth e-mails like this...
Client: Can you please send me a Record of Termination Form?
Me: Sure, here it is! *attach pdf file*
Client: Thanks, Ruth. You're the best.
Me: No problem. Just let me know if you need any other forms, OK?
Client: Sure thing!
Just December? Heck... I'd be jumping for joy if people around here would bother to clean up mail from before 1997.
I've got some users here with mailboxes over 5 or 6 GB. Not including "offline" archives well over 20+ GB.
I just don't get it.
I've tried to do disk quotas here... but the problem invariably ends up that the worst offenders are certain company officers that can always insist on blowing the quota.
One guy, an officer on the BOD, was so extreme that our only option was to buy him his own server. half a terabyte ought to hold him for a while... Of course... not... he filled it up right away...
Who needs this much stuff? Really?
Evening! Started getting my car ready to sell today. I hadn't even opened the doors in almost 4 months. The interior has a bit of a mildew problem that will have to be addressed. And it won't start without a jump. But once it starts, it runs fine.
hehehe...
It's amazing that anyone would need all that crap for so long. I can't wait to get rid of it as soon as possible!
On that note, I'm gonna grab a shower and a snack and watch TV for a while.
Good night!
Nite nite then... :-)
Yah... sounds like my old truck. Let my Toyota pickup sit for about six months without driving it. Bad mistake. The mildew was there, but as it turned out, that was the least of the problems.
It had pennzoil in it. What I know now that I didn't know then was that pennzoil after a couple of months of sitting still turns into a sort of jell-o like substance. It may be interesting to form into molds but it by that point is useless as a lubricating fluid.
New engines for Toyota pickups cost about $6,000. I didn't know that before either. :-(
Now I'm a Castrol sort of person. :-)
okay... I can't get the last page (3801-3900) to come up on muh puter... what gives?... wanna see the post from winmag...
pennzoil sucks...
been usin' castrol fer 20 years...
Here's First Sergeant Brady's knife set. Just got it back today from engraving. With luck, it will be mailed tomorrow.
I hate to say it, but there are a couple of slight screwups in the engraving, since they didn't follow my, or their, written instructions. First, on the ER, they left off "USMC" from his name. Fortunately, I told them to include the USMC emblem, so I hope this is acceptable.
Second, the CRKT had just "SGT Bradley A. Kasal" on it. They had busted him from E-8 to E-5. They were able to add "1st" to the line without it being too noticeable. They also forgot to use a larger capital letter for the first letters in his names, as we've done earlier.
I hope he finds these acceptable, anyway.
Heh, it's ok posting those beauties twice!
Thank yuh ma'am...
Im destroyed... two days of clearin' downed trees, chainsawin' and makin' BIG brushpiles...
makin' a new range fer ShootMoot...
Roger that. I never heard of the Pennzoil problem before that. But ever since then I hear "oh... yeah... I'd never use that stuff... "
hehehe... swell. Love that Castrol GTX. Bummer now is that the Mustang likes to have 5w-30 instead of 10w-40. For some reason whenever I go into the local Shucks to buy oil, I'm always buying the last case of 5w-30 they have. Everything else is 10w-40. Yeesh.
the van likes 5w-30... I might have problems, but I buy gallon jugs in bulk when I find them... usually one oil change ahead...
g'nite... thenewboy has been illin'... got next to no sleep last nite... I'm outta here...
That is amazing. Your comments were very interesting, too. I guess it's something a nurse would notice, but important, too, for anyone who may have to give First Aid sometime to someone who has had major blood loss.
The man knows how to prioritize!
Here's your sign! ;o)
Niters.
I think the change in oil lately is mainly due to these new small block V8 engines that develop and maintain insanely more horsepower now than they ever used to.
Five years ago my 4.6 liter with 260HP and over 300 ft-lbs of torque was pretty good. Now the same engine in the 2005 Mustang is good for over 400 HP and over 400 ft-lbs. Yowsers.
This is all still out of the same 4.6L motor. That's pretty much still the same displacement as the old 289 of yesteryear but with a whole new Yikes! factor.
400 HP out of a 289? Stay tuned... this isn't even the version coming in the SVT/Cobra program that has a supercharger and NO2... over 500 HP anyone?
Yikes...
:-)
Don't you have a job interview tomorrow,er, today? I'm keeping you in my prayers!
