Do I still get the 72 virgins if I'm the only one who dies?

I read things like that and think "He got hired. Can you imagine the people who were turned down?"

Fortunately, that is not the case. I just had to connect to my home computer and download it.
As it is a server made for our programming team... we can go and kill it it is not so important. Yet, when you need around one hour to download a file because no one else has it on its computer and re-install it, it is kind of irritating

Everyone here at work is tense and tired and grumpy.

I'm not sure if I'm irritated more or amused more. It's certainly something I shake my head at.
I sent a guy here at work to Hartford along with a handful of other people to collect documents from a client's facility. It's a trip to the client, so they were all told to dress nice and be on their best behavior. It's a big client. So I just heard that while he was in the client's offices today, he used one of their conference rooms so he could interview for a job with another company. Via teleconference. We were paying him today while he used our client's conference room to have an interview with another company. I have to laugh. The balls on this guy. Or lack of brains. He's like 24 years old.

What gall! Is he still working for you?
And this popped into my head: But in Hartford, Hereford and Hampshire, honesty hardly ever happens. Or: But in 'artford, 'ereford and 'ampshire, 'onesty 'ardly ever 'appens. http://www.filmsite.org/myfa2.html

That's what I'M pondering now. I may have pondered bagels early in the morn, but tonight I'm pondering stopping at my soon to be extinct watering hole and imbibing a nice hot beer. Yeah, I know beer is supposed to be cold but they need to market a good tasting warm one for weather like this!

Remains to be seen. He's scheduled to come back tonight and my boss is going to talk with him about it tomorrow. I don't think she even knows yet what she's going to do. I bet he doesn't get fired for it, but it could go either way.
