DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

[Fred M]

Happy Tuesday fellas!

 

[Terra Nova guy]

Oh I most definitely do, although this is how I portray myself...

I know the feeling. Replace "cheer team" with "dance team" and that's me. We've been fundraising steady since September for daughter's dance team competition travelling to Halifax in April.

Mornin' Dads! A bit cool this morning, nothing major, just cool.

 

[Zmack]

Morning from a sunny but cool Westfield NB. Not much new here, just super busy with work 65-70 hrs a week lately.

Mornin! If you're hourly, the overtime is great for vacation money.

Right there with you, I have a kid in AG with project animals.

Fortunately I get paid hourly, OT is going to pay for my January trip

Now there's the silver lining. They have us all working mandatory overtime here at work, something that I'm not complaining about. While I may not be taking a trip, I am using the overtime to pay down some bills.

Morning, folks.

I can attest that Darcy (@declansdad ) arrived safely, but chillingly her in Winnipeg last night.
At least he was safe up until I dropped him off at his hotel. After that, I have no information.

Daughters are like that. They learn it from their mothers.

Ditto.
Not too sad that they've outgrown that. Well... DD22 teaches now, so they're paying her instead of me paying them.

That's cool.

How much is Doc charging you to stay with him?!?

 

[GoofyIsAsGoofyDoes]

'Morning all...
Finished up the current month-end closing week and looking forward to actually working only 40 a week for a little while. Of course I should be grateful that I working at all as they still see me as temporary excess baggage and are currently only guaranteeing work to the end of the year.

I know that while at WDW, I'm eating Dole Whips, Mickey Ice Cream Sandwiches, churros, Mickey candy apples, and whatever other junk my heart desires. Other than that, the only thing I really miss right now is pizza and good beer.

Exactly...
When we travel, I have what I want and don't exclude anything. I pay for it when we get back but so far I've been able to recover over the next week or so. I still have the good beer but just not very often. Had a porter with my brats last night and enjoyed it mightily but now it'll be a week or two before I can have another. Pizza is another thing I miss as well. We deal with that by purposely going out for one about once a month. If you're going to be bad, don't wast it on crappy frozen or run of the mill delivery. Go get the good stuff from somewhere that they know how to make it, enjoy it while you're there and then don't do it again for a while. I use the same guideline for things like sweets and burgers. only have the good stuff, but don't have any of it very often.

Long hours stink, but OT would curb the suffering.
Unfortunately, I ani't been paid one penny of OT in better then 35 years.

Shhhh

He wasn't supposed to know about that until I gave him the bill.

I guess I'll need a second bag on the trip to bring enough Loonies to pay for the accommodations

Still good and thanks again for the lift.

Not sure what this white stuff is all over the place though.

You never know, with the notorious Winnipeg underground scene.

That's my biggest fear, that I'd only be allowed to eat stuff I hate.

Try snorting it; see what happens.

That would be what we like (or dislike) to call snow. Or...

... or that

Afternoon gents. Seems like all are good and things are in decent order, carry on!

 

[AirGoofy]

Well, today is a day of highs and lows. We did the Memorial Mass for my Aunt. But, our new Governor was the one who filed the lawsuit against the last one for the illegal pension-killing bill.

Daughters are like that. They learn it from their mothers.

Go show that to your wife and see if you still have posting privileges.

Happy Tuesday fellas!

With that view, absolutely.

Mornin! If you're hourly, the overtime is great for vacation money.

I'm not paid OT, salaried at 60. So, I work all my hours at both jobs as fast as possible so I can go home.

I try to get the best stuff to, if I'm going to cheat. But, I have to avoid the excuses to cheat, otherwise, I cheat with a pizza and beer every night. Then, it's just back to.my old diet.

So this is good news, right? I'm assuming this is the "high" you mentioned.
And... I could have that completely backwards.

Hopefully the new Governor will protect your pension.
