Save your money. . .

which is why the noble steed has such a devoted --ahhh--baggage?,
It's always darkest before the dawn.  So if you're going to steal your neighbor's newspaper, that's the time to do it.

You mean it has nothing to do with my charm or good looks?!  :spooked:

your charm and good looks are secondary.  It is your wisdom and generosity that earns devotion.

There's a calculation that I have to do at work, that originally, I was taught the manual or long-hand version of the calculation. Actually there are several different ones that we are required to do and I was taught the manual version of each. Anyway, since then, we've been giving software to use which does the calculation for us. I don't like it because you can't see the work. Meaning, if there is a problem with the calculation, either human or software related, it's more difficult to trace, because the final product, doesn't show the steps that it took to get to the answer. So, I do mine long hand. I hate math, but I prefer this method.

Anyway, we have a person in the office w/the personality of a barracuda. I've had to talk to her once about her approach. She's condescending and speaks to everyone as if she's in the worst mood ever and it's their fault. Everyone is afraid to ask her a question, because of her manner.  She just used her attitude on me to berate me for not using the calculator. Why?!? If my calculations result in the same answer (which they do, because I checked) why should I be required to use the damn thing?

She doesn't have seniority on me at all, so I'll do what I want to do, the way I want to do it and eventually she'll give up. :biggrin:

My brother was supposed to bring the plates over for the car last night, but noooo, here I sit, behind in my plans for the day.

I need a ride to Applewood.  Anyone got a minute?

I live in Illinois, but if I was closer, I sure would give you a ride.  :smile:

Oh in earlier times before I learned restraint, that's exactly what I would have said! LOL Instead, I kept my cool (outwardly anyway) and proceeded w/my method. I just turned my portion of the project in. Only one person out of 7 others, using her method,  is even close to halfway. Boo Yah! Proved my point.
