i gave them the answers to the quiz - at least i gave them one answer and told them where to find the rest. still half of them failed and no one got 100% right.
it's a frickin open book test and they have a week to do it.

Another thing wrong with the car :thumbdn:. Two of the clips holding the underbody pan on at the front left corner have gone missing, and now the corner of the pan has curled up and warped. It's very visible when you look at the left side of the car from afar.

...told you.

It KNOWS.  :LOL:

It knows I've been bitching about it on the internet :orly:

Anyway I bet the dealer will refuse to fix it under warranty because they'll say I got something caught underneath and it broke the panel off. Don't understand why it warped though, the engine heat at the temp required to do that wouldn't radiate that far surely :-\

I have a meeting that runs from 1 pm today until 1 pm tomorrow.  :thumbdn:

  How is that possible?  Will you all be setting up air mattresses in the conference room at night?  :zombiefuck:

No, I got to go home from 7 pm until about 8 am.  Still a massive time-suck from my week.

I find it amazing that anyone can find that much to meet about.

Don't fall asleep. Sounds like it's going to be boring as hell.  :yawn:

We flew consultants in from out of state, so had to use all the time we had.

Yes, it was boring as hell.

Brexit.

But this will be a chronic bitch. There is really nothing quick about it at all.

  Will UK citizens living elsewhere in Europe have to go home immediately?  :-\

  Also, will you now be unable to travel as freely to the UK for business?  :-\

Oh no. First of all, the UK will have to invoke paragraph 50, which is essentially about saying "we want to leave".  There will be a period of a couple of years when the UK will negotiate the terms of their leaving the union and most likely another few years when they will actually try to implement those terms. During all of that, they will remain a member country and will have to follow any treaties  in place.

It is going to be messy, though. and I think the UK will go through a recession starting just about now. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think I am.

The UK will also have to negotiate new agreements with just about everybody. Farage et al think this won't be a problem, but I suspect it will be a world of pain for everyone involved. I'm happy to be wrong but I don't think I will. I think this is all going to hurt, and a lot.

In the short term, sure. In the longer, I don't know. I don't think anyone does. There are a lot of us and we all live in limbo right now, And most of us took a pay cut.

I love the "look" this woman in yoga class gives me when our eyes meet for some reason or other.  I don't know who she is or what she is...it happens.  I am seriously considering not bowing or offering "namaste" to anyone ever again.   ::)
