From the YGTBFKM files: HR: You're not eligible to retire. Me: I believe that is a mistake. I have the years/age. 15 emails later. HR: You do not have the age requirement at 49 with 30 years of service, you do not have the age requirement! Me: I am 54 with 35 years of service. Try again! RADIO SILENCE! HR Dir at 5p: How…

GM Govt shutdown is (will become) the priority all week. Weekend wasn't long enough. Cheers, Skip

GM Not a fan of this DST. It's a lazy day before returning to the fray tomorrow. Cheers, Skipper

Happy Birthday, SGM! CONGRATS onthe 1300 day streak, Lou! WOOT!

GM Still quite swollen. But less drainage. This has been miserable week. My mission today. Find a brushless car wash. And pup cups with #motherTucker Hope everyone has a great weekend. Skip

LOL! Ironically, Doc - I reached out to this detail guy that does everything from Ceramic Coating; Detailing; PPF; you name it - to gauge interest on expanding to this side of the county and offering boutique climate controlled storage in addition to detail services. Concierge pick/up drop off; white glove type stuff.…

GM~ OMG! CUTEY! M/F? Name? You're post lacks significant details, Dennis 🐾!!!! Nanny's in our area make bank but work stupid long hours. Feeling about 60% - but still very very uncomfortable and sore. DW made me a favorite for dinner: homeade spaghetti sauce! Yum!! TGIF! Skipper

So…..done with the vilification of federal employees! Submitted request to retire on 12.31.25. I have enough leave to carry me through the remainder of the year. Done with this clown show. 35 years in gov't is enough. I think I might try to find a job slinging beer at a local tavern. Something I don't have to worry about…

GM~ Still feel like bag o' *kitten*. skipper

Sam - Ugh! Sorry to hear! Dennis - sorry you and the infamous Tom and Raine weren't able to connect. Stay dry! Ended up taking afternoon off work and just trying to rest. Not sure I am successful. All day applying for jobs ahead of potential RIF.

G'Morning~ Not feeling well. Yesterday really sucked. This morning not much better. Trying to do some work, but doubt I'll make it long. People have no regard for personal space. Vacation is your time. SLowly we've become a generation that is wired 100% of the time (vacation be dammed). Storms rolling through later today.…

GM~ Lou - we are about 765 - and have trimmed now, nearly 20%. The hemorrhage is going to be felt. Packing out - hard to believe all that was in there. VERY uncomfortable right now. Nostril on one side won't clot. Ugh. Supposed to be on leave this week - but alas, work beckoned and I'm knee deep.

GM~ * Settling into the idea that RIFs are coming. We issued over 60 in our work group yesterday. Ugh.... * Gonna be a long (day (and night). * Off to doc to get these splints out of nose. * Hope you are enjoying Daytona bike week, Dennis! ~Skipper

GM * So much for taking week off. Change of plans. Work beckons. * Didn't sleep much last night. Couldn't get comfortable. Splints come out tomorrow. * Gonna be a long day. Cheers, Skip

Me thinks I upset the MFP gods......... Alas, another solid night sleep - body really was worn down.......................... Packed septum really annoying and about a 8/10 on the pain scale. C'mon Tuesday Road race in Nascar today. Not a fan so will likley just stay in bed surfing re-runs of Hogan's Hero's........

Welcome home! Hope you all had fun overall! Pup pic?

Ceramic coating came out quite nicely!

GM~ Exciting development! Dennis, you are about to return from DBW to see a new fur ball has replaced you! Up way later than normal. Last night was the best night's sleep since then. VERY uncomfortable. I spare you details. Return Tuesday to remove the splints...... New car fever spreading around. Audi in GA. My neighbor…

GM Up way too early. Bad headache. Will CBL.

GM~ * VERY nice looking whip, SamIAm! * Mine got shipped out yesterday for ceramic....trying a new product call ICoN Rocklear. We'll see how it goes. * Hope today is free of more vitriol and headlines. Its getting old! * Welcome home cruiser(s). * Doc - how ye? When do you resume work (getting you ready to answer your 5…

I love love love the color combo! Congrats, SamIAm! The L just got shipped off for Ceramic Coating. Should get back by Saturday/Sunday. I hear some BBBrs might meet up in Daytona. Hope the Cruiser's are having great experiences. Skip

GM~ * Up early. Not sleeping well. Between headaches, work circus, just don't get a good nights rest even with Ambien...... Ugh..... * DN coming to spend night tomorrow so we can be up early Thursday for VA appt. * Another day. Lets see how we can villify and crush the will and pysche of fed employees today. * Doc? How's…

Great cruise pics, all the way around.....glaciers....fancy martini's....... I've always been reticent to try cruises.....prefer less crowds.....and buffets gimme the heebie jeebies.......

GM~ * Wowza! Sounds spectacular.....glacier in sight.....hot coffee in hand... pics, please? * Way too short of a weekend. Especially amid the vitriol. * Today is not going to be fun. Short week, with the sleep study and septum repair Thursday. * ATL race was disappointing. * How the PT in CT? * Hope the Audi finds a good…

Congrats, SamIAm!

GM Not much sleep. Way too much vitriol going on. Last nights message was disparaging. Racing in ATL today. Hope the hometown boy from Dawsonville does well. Coffee. Car wash. Doc - how you feeling? <Joanne> Cheers Skip

* Out with the old. * * In with the new. * * I really need to be banned from being withing 100-yards of a dealership.

Happy Anniversary, Kids!

GM~ * Glad to hear Joanne's o2 sats are better!! Congrats on the Malibu sale and good luck on the Boxer! * Ineos dealer (90 mins away) cannot get me a loaner until next Friday - and because all parts come from UK, suspect this will be a long wait. May go kick some tires today on a GX550 I like. * Doc - home health care is…

Lou~ Thats quite a table! SGM - I think your gut is right.
