Found racks for the van yesterday and they were less expensive than I had expected

Parts, I guess the racks will be used to carry your brother's stuff back.  Just don't be like a guy we saw with a small pick-up truck so loaded down with bags in the back that he couldn't make it up an overpass.  He was still there trying when I passed by again in about 30 minutes.

I have seen those people too :laugh:  I am very good at loading up a truck or van with the most it can hold and still drive safely.  I mostly got the racks to hold extension ladders for work and used them today for that

Talked to my sister on the phone this morning and I mentioned the toothaches I had the last couple of days. Blahiah, no painkiller seem to do anything or helped in the slightest way. Well, long story short.. it turned out she still had 5 sachets of Brufen lying around somewhere and that she would bring them ASAP. She did and must say, the Brufen pretty much did the trick finally.

Thank you sister. Taking the first of them made quite a difference this afternoon. Will buy you some flowers or a nice plant very soon.

Gave my little girl her Birthday present. A handbag and a gift voucher worth $60 to buy what she wants. Likely clothing or toys or videogames I guess. She was really pleased.
Am in a competition at work, they are trying to shift a heap of nice handsets on a high end user plan. I sent out some really good emails to targeted customers that I researched shit out of. i reckon the conversion rate will be god if I can follow up on them.
Whilst everyone else there is pitching shit out of these things either with no targeting or conversely pitching and drying up the easiest sources, I will find niche targeting and work the needs creatively. It is harder and more time consuming but I will be able to sustain many more opportunities to pitch confidently and effectively. That is the hope.
Oh the competition means that if we sell 7 in 30 days we get one free for ourselves. 14 gets 2 etc.

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

I'm done with the Local Union election work. Instead of 10.5 to 11 hours of work like I thought it would be, it was 13.5 hours and I was tired as shit when I got home. The results weren't what I wanted, but I was there to be a teller, so our part of the job went well.

For some reason the image of Les trying to buy a handbag is a very funny image to me.  :lol:

Shortbread cookies were on sale today for $1.99, and had a $1 off coupon.  Voila, 2 bags of Keebler Sandies with pecans and 2 bags of Keebler Sandies with Dark Chocolate and Almonds.

I got a total of 88 texts on my phone today. I guess it is good because it means I have friends and this new boy likes me. But bad news for my thumbs.
