What tests does she need?
She has to see an ear, nose, and throat doctor (I think she couldn't get in to see one until December) and she has to do a test where she has to drink some stuff first although I'm not sure exactly what for.

My dad goes tomorrow to find out how bad his prostate cancer is. Between that and everything else I have gone on, my stress level is about maxed out. But, I put on the mask of normal me, and push on.

Now that the Powerball was delayed last night, I guess we all have two big events to wait around today to be tallied.

That would be cool. Drive the others nuts.

It is dumb! A worthless reason to not have kids in school.

Put him to work. Have him sweep or rake leaves.

He hasn't gotten a new gaming console in years. He wants the new Xbox, but that's mot happening. He actually only has one gaming console that's his. Santa brought the rest for the family.

I love when employees ask if they can go vote while they are supposed to be working and still charge time to the contract.

This employee is teleworking too. Nice try.

Speaking of telework verse onsite, one of my new employees tried to start working onsite two weeks ago and found every desk full between other contractors and Coast Guardsman. This is exactly the issue I told the KO we would have if he demands everyone go back to the office at least two days a week like he directed.

I just reminded him that the company does not give employees time off for voting and it is expected to be done before or after work.
