we once had a QE get a police escortAnother coworker bites the dust. Walk of shame with an HR escort.
Cuffs or no cuffs?
Had HR ask if anybody had a gun on them and could stand by during a firing at a place I worked, that's how you know they shoulda listened when I said "don't hire that guy".
There are some really nice groomers off Avanti.Vail is my first choice when it comes to that area, I've been everywhere else at lease once except for this Echo you speak of. I enjoy the on piste terrain Vail has to offer, ex racer that enjoys going fast and carving
cuffs. i found out after the fact that he made some very specific threats to the quality head for the site.
Winner!
I learned many many years ago not to drive up from Denver on the day of. Or go back to Denver the same day

Not sure I've ever worked anywhere that's allowed anyone to have a firearm on the premises.
Next time give IRB a shout. He's got a gat and is ready to blast.
Shit, if threatening Quality is grounds for dismissal I'm not sure I would have a team. Damn Quality always getting in our way.
I got laid off once while sitting alone in the office - my boss was expecting I would be WFH that day. 20 seconds into the sorry ass phone call, our ex-Marine infosec dude kicked me out of the door unceremoniously. That was good riddance as I signed my next offer letter two days later.Another coworker bites the dust. Walk of shame with an HR escort.
Yeah it's not going to be fun when he's gone. We've been a pack since he was 8 weeks old and he's been by our side through some major life experiences.

Little Cottonwood Rd can also make I-70 in a blizzard seem like a walk in the park. I got stuck up on that bitch at the end of the day one time when it started dumping, fuck that.
That sucks man. We had to put one down last summer. Did it right before a trip, partly logistical but it ended up taking our minds off it and we weren’t moping about the house. Had a vet come to the house which was best for us and the dog.
Proud to have met him myself!
no i mean like the kind of threatening that get's you arrested. i never found out what the exact threat was, but it was severe enough they got the police involved. i worked with the guy in question, he was a loose cannon for sure. frankly i'm surprised he lasted as long as he did. dude could barely write complete sentences in an email.Shit, if threatening Quality is grounds for dismissal I'm not sure I would have a team. Damn Quality always getting in our way.
Final update, and then I'll shut up, Dad died in my Mom's arms about 15 minutes ago.
60 year together.
Fitting.
60 year together.

Sorry to hear that. Condolences to you and your family.
Sorry man.
Thats a proper way to go. Sorry dude. Your FIL went recently also?
Yes, both within 14 days, I think. It's all a blur, though.
You know - I would've like to have met your father. He sounds like he was an interesting, and good, human being.
I am so Sorry Boost. I get very emotional with Dogs. I thought of somthin the other day lookin at my two. The story below is what gave me my thought.
My last Dog I put down did not go well for me. I was a wreck and I wanted to hold him but the Vet said no,and my Dumb Ass agreed. She said they can jump. I should of told her that this ain’t my first time Bitch,go Fuck yourself,I’m holding my Dog,but I did not. It was a mess,when the time came,I had to get on my knees(im 6 foot 5)to see His Eyes and let him see mine. Berry was only 20 pounds.
So with my current two rascals,Sam and Chloe,hence my Idea came when the time comes. Fuck,never mind,sorry to ramble on Boost,and sorry for the pain.
Avy
I'll be thinking about you guys! That's rough, but also timely that you guys can share/combine the grief.
Absolutely.
Found 2 boxes of tools just sitting in the middle of Culver Rd on today's walk. Pulled them to the side. I just walked to the store, and they are still there. I am hoping they get found by the owners. Same spot.. Same Pothole I found my new ladder.
home from stupid fancy donor dinner. have to do another one on thursday. least favorite part of my job by far, but at least it usually involves free booze and meals...
League was tonight and it was a shit show. 22 kids showed up for the night, so two qualifiers and finals. For some reason it's random draw vs. ranked selection going into the qualifiers and she got in with a group that didn't get a single clean lap, qualifying 8th overall. And she went into fucking RAGE mode.
We tried to get the qualifier re-run, since the second was clean, but the new parents voted "oh no, we'd never stay up past 9pm on a school night", so results stood. Couple of us just said "Fuck it, let the kids race. The new kids and parents will get to see what true racing is like."
I told her gloves off, you go get what's yours and holy fuck did she. She missed getting 3rd by half a kart - overlapped, not stacked. Took 8th to 7th on the start in the 1st turn. 7th to 6th on the 1st lap before they even sped up. Took 5 laps to catch 4th & 5th from 1/4 track back and due to some speed slow downs, then went 6th to 4tj in one pass. She cut under on the back straight, pushed 5th into 4th and cut underneath both in the back S-turns. 1.5 laps left, she closed 10 karts and was overlapped on the start/finish with 3rd. If she had 15' more she would have passed 3rd.
Fucking rampage. She's upset about not getting a podium, but the reality of the rampage she went on is starting to settle in that not getting a medal is okay.
Quotes from other parents before and during the race:
"Well... This is gonna be a show. She's pissed and it only seems to be getting worse while we're waiting."
"I really want Ethan to beat her and I really feel bad saying this, but I also want to see how far up she goes. She's maaaaad and I kinda want to see how far that pushes her."
"Maddox [kid in 3rd] better start running. I don't know if he has enough time to hold her off."
It was a-m-a-z-i-n-g.
Also had one of the dads from the second final come up afterwards and apologize to a few of us for voting the other way. He said after watching the races it's pretty clear that there are kids who race competitively and those who race for fun - and why we were trying to keep them racing accordingly. His son was 4th in the second and still got lapped by two kids who should have clearly been in the first final. If those kids had been placed properly, he likely would have been podium for the second.

Sorry, Wendell. That's the best way to die - in the arms of your most important loved one.

I'd do an oil change with some heavier weight oil and just see how long it could go.
Attempt number 3 at tire kicking tonight.
Car made it to work. Oil light is permanently on now.
I'd make sure to get a AAA membership, or CCC (Car Club of Canada) whatever you have up there.
