You guys are always thinking the worst. FT’s luck has changed.

So we’ve learned in the past month or so FT has been ingesting poop particles and mold.

A master plan to get time off from work?

So at home, I can use my company laptop and I can run a virtual work computer on it or my personal laptop which gives me everything on the unclassified network as if I was at work. I just can't access my two classified networks.

I was quite surprised when he told me at 8:45 PM last night that they could be out today to replace it. If not. I'd be cleaning up water everyday until they came.

I hate taking time off because I'm sick. I can't do fun stuff if I'm sick.

Damn that sucks...you could have had days upon days off from work to make sure water didn't hit the floor.

I added it to the map considering the county next to us in VA and across the bridge from us in MD are part of that region.
