I'm a recruiter. Most companies want you to start immediately, once you've accepted the job.
One easy way out of the quandary? "I'm sure your company (the new company) expects your employees to give you two week notice. I'd love to start immediately, but I feel the professional thing to do is to give my old company a…

My favorite notice on a box being shipped. I've ordered high quality cheese from high end shop in NY.

The outside of the box had a notice, "To UPS delivery. YES, I'm supposed to stink. I'm cheese."

You probably are going to need to live in a bigger city.

There are a couple of stores near me that only sell spices, but I live in a Chicago suburb.

Even with that, my guess is that you're not going to beat the price/quality of the beanilla site that someone else came up with.

BTW. I have no financial interest in…

GREAT find.

Odd thing.

Cheaper vodkas in Wisconsin can be made from MILK.

Only state in the country that allows it.

I work in the food industry. This isn't the way they do it in the flavor industry, but it will work.

A couple of suggestions.

Do NOT buy vanilla at your local grocery store. It is extremely expensive. Last time I checked. The local grocery store was about $7.00/bean. If you could buy them wholesale, it's about $60.00…

I LOVE all of the comments about welfare fraud that start off with, "I know . . ."

You folks really need to take a course in logic AND statistics. Even if you knew 2,000 people who were committing welfare fraud and could prove it, that number is irrelevant when it comes to welfare, of any sort.

2,000/a few million is…

Let's see. How many people are there in the US and you base your ridiculous assumptions on what you see near you. The majority of which is what is known as conjecture since you have NO way of knowing what's going on.

Let's see. How about I say that I know ONE person name Mifune who is a ________ (fill in the blank).…

I LOVE the folks who have no issue with posting that there are LOTS of people who are getting these benefits who aren't eligible for them, or are abusing the system.

#1 - Since there are NO accurate studies to prove that statement, the statement is either a figment of people's imagination, or they are lying.
#2 -…

With their rabid homophobe CEO, **** would freeze over before I'd stop there, even if it was free.

Big Oven.

Okay, I am a big cook. It's my hobby.

In looking at the Big Oven app, I'd go with the Pro version. My problem is that if this was a piece of software for even $50.00, I'd probably buy it. At $19.00/year for eternity, that just seems like a lot to me. I realize that they are also charging you for cloud space,…

I used to fly 100,000 miles/year. I, hopefully, will never have to fly anywhere again.

The "seating" on any of the commuter/shuttle flights should be outlawed as being unsafe.

I've taken small, as in 6 passenger planes, that have more space than these shuttle flights.

Americans are being treated like cattle taken to…

I am a Roku user. There's a release on one of the Roku user sites that Netflix is in negotiation with Comcast and a couple of other cable companies that would cut out Roku/Apple TV/game box streaming, etc.

Tim. As soon as you've seen ONE kid get bit by a dog when an adult left the kid unsupervised with the dog, get back to me.

Try going to some of the dog bite sites, such as the AKC and the CDC and get back to me.

Pejoratives? Shows your ability to discuss things with others.

I had some recent email conversations with Yelp that has made me question their reviews quite a bit.

A local Italian restaurant. There's two other Italian restaurants in the area. One is a upper end chain restaurant.

I've been to all three at least a half dozen times.

There were maybe a dozen reviews of the restaurant…

I was called to be an expert witness in a case in Pennsylvania. This was for two dogs that had mauled an five year old girl. No one knew what had happened since the only ones there were the two dogs and the little girl. These were two dogs that were extremely well trained and had never exhibited any type of aggressive…

Tim,

I don't want to barrage this group with a lengthy post. I've taught obedience for 35+ years. My wife and I raised and showed Rottweilers for 25 years.

Okay. I'm old. Can't remember when they came out. I think my first computer was a Commodore 64. At those early times, I also had bought a Texas Instrument computer. I think the Commodore came out first.

Went to an upscale restaurant where I had eaten many times. Knew the owner from his restaurant. The waiter that night was someone I had never seen, nor had he apparently ever seen me.

Almost from the beginning of the night he decided that I was going to pay the bill. He fawned over me the entire night. We had taken my…
