I kinda feel like a bum. I did almost nothing over the weekend.

But I did go have lunch with an old friend. It was REALLY interesting seeing her again.

 

u will have plenty to do once you close jake...

trust me. home remodeling is both fun, but also like a never-ending chore. once u start, it's like opening pandora's box- to your time, your bank account, and your sanity. during our remodeling, i lost 15 lbs and god knows how much hair. we're still not completely done either. but, the bulk of the inside stuff is done.

but, once it's done and u can put your feet up and enjoy the fruits of your labor, you'll be smiling ear-to-ear.

 

So I just got the email, and the meeting is a little later today.
It looks like our company will be offering a severance package to anyone who wants to leave. They are going to cut back the force by 500 employees. So those who take the offer, get a little bonus for leaving. And if less than 500 people leave, then the firing begins.


This ought to be interesting

 

damn. sorry to hear that jake. what are u going to do?

i'm in the same boat- am here til the end of august. but, i'm paid thru january 2009. the job market really sucks right now and will probably get worse until january.

stressful times ahead. thanks again mr. george chimp bush!

 

don't worry, Obama was out making new friends the last 8 days. He'll fix everything!

 

I can care less.
If they give me $$$ to leave, I will spend the next couple months fixing up the house. I would have a house that will be all dialed in because I can focus on the house, not the job.
I am sure it would be tough finding a big paying job right now, but my monthly nut is low on purpose. I have planned for this since I was 18. So just in case something bad were to happen, I can still continue with the same lifestyle I have always enjoyed.

 

went to hunnington beach on saturday, waves were rough and we never made it to the surfing/volleyball competition but was still fun. Sunday went food shopping for the frist time in like 3 weeks (since we got back from vacation) and did a 46 mile bike ride on my new bike (did i say it has carbon fiber on it!).

good luck at work jake.

 

What Am I A Thread Killer!!?

 

umm, i thought that obama is the anti-christ and the beginning of armageddon and maccain is his whiney little bitch... lol

 

HA!!!!
They offered everyone a severance package if they wanted to leave.
Looks like they are trying to get rid of the long timers. They set it up for the people who were about to retire anyway.

 

went to my niece Hawaiian party on sat.
came home i checked the mail and had a ticket
for running a red light in a car i have never seen
and at a time of night that i was in the bed sleep.
somehow somebody got a hold of my driver lic#
and they're using it to rent car's.
i have a friend that works for ice, he's going to run
the plates to find out where the car was rented from.
then i can go raise hell..
on a bright note saw dark night and i have a new
phone. i went with the voyager

 

voyager is nice (and big) never heard of something like that michael (your ticket)

 

nope not mine. it's a classic case of identity theft.
this is what happens when you employee people
that steal other people's info.

 

well that sucks.

doesnt the picture show its not you?



Dark Night was awsome!

 

wow michael, that sucks! hope your buddy can raise hell

Dark Knight was AWESOME!!! Gonna go see it in the IMAX this week.

 

woot off!

DK was great in IMAX!

 

Funds today
Records tomorrow
Move in this weekend.

DAMN I HATE EARTHQUAKES, THAT WAS A 5.8 IN CHINO HILLS
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/...ci14383980.php

 

that was FUN!!! I felt it out here in Tustin

 

felt it in santa monica, it was like a ride

 

It's been reduced to a 5.4.
As an architect, I would think you'd like earthquakes. Shows the structural integrity of the building you're in.
Plus, it's real world testing on structures you've designed.

 

i thought dark knight was really good. but, seriously, if i have to hear one more person compulsively blab on-and-on about how awesome it is, i think i'm going to lose it...

look- i get it. it was really good. but, ppl went coo koo and went to see it over & over & over and made WB a gazillion $'s. are they crazy?

geez louise... get a grip ppl... it wasn't THAT good.

 

zomg GUYS!!! I just saw the GREATEST movie of ALL-TIME!!! oh man, I can't BELIVE how good it was. I stood in line for like 8 hours and I can't wait to see it again.

Batman is going to win EVERY OSCAR possible this year!!! Heath Ledger gave the performance of his life! (pun intended)

you guys seen it yet???

 

Architects want buildings to stand up, earthquakes try to bring them down, they are my arch rival! Yeah i saw they reduced it, they always do.
