We had a double fatality here locally due to a wrong way driver, less than a week ago.
Has anyone tried more cars and less regulation? Imma sure if there were enough cars going the right way that car would have been too scared to go the wrong way.

Gimme the list, man. We'll probably only be there for a couple days, but we'll be eatin' somethin' for sure!
This was the best one. We stayed in the hotel one night. Was $$$.


Aside from destination food, in general watch out for the real touristy places, some of them are trash. Look for where the locals go. We went to this one place on the lakefront in a town, looked good, just had a bolognaise and I swear it was microwaved from a packet. The variation in quality is wild.

Dang sounds expensive. Wonder if you could have just paid off your mortgage instead.
Gramma's footin' the bill, 'cause apparently she's loaded?

Had a similar experience in Lago di Garda. Always good to get personal recommendations on these sorts of things...

Forced to attend a workshop this week. I have drawn the ire of the organizers as I have complained that there are too many people, conversations are just people saying the same thing in different ways. Fewer people could get a lot more done in a fraction of the time.

The current topic of discussion is "how to ensure workers are performing value added work %100 of the time"

A certified letter was also sent to the ex employee

This is probably the only time in all my years of management that I have enjoyed seeing someone canned
