skybytch 273 #1 August 2, 2001 I hate the first two weeks of August. Sitting here at work twiddling my thumbs cuz the phones ain't ringin' and the email ain't comin' in. Geez, just cuz you're all headed to Quincy is no reason not to call and order some new shit! Yawn... okay, back to my solitaire game....pull and flare,lisa----I am a nobody. Nobody's perfect.

JeffGordon 0 #2 August 2, 2001 You know nothing!! My job ends 12/31 and **ALL** development work has stopped. (At least I don't have trouble keeping up with the forums.) The only work I am doing is when a disgruntled employee sabotages something.PS minesweeper is an alternative to solitare Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattb 0 #6 August 2, 2001 Well I haven't been hit with that yet but I must be bored based on the number of posts I've made today. . . . You're on a dropzone and getting paid for it - out sympathy is limited. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #7 August 2, 2001 QuoteYou're on a dropzone and getting paid for it - out sympathy is limited. ;)Yeah but you don't know just how weekly I'm getting paid!! Unfortunately for me, where I work is about six miles from the dz. This is actually a good thing, cuz on a day like this all we really want to do is go jump... and we can't.... cuz you might call and order something.... but you won't....pull and flare,lisa----I am a nobody.

gman 0 #10 August 2, 2001 I took a look at Perris's activity page. According to Mr. Jack Gramley, the daughter's of President Bush showed up yesterday. Is this true? did they do a tandem jump? Did anybody offer to buy them BEER after the jump? Just curious.-G.L.- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #11 August 2, 2001 It's true! The Bush daughters really did show up at Perris, they did tandems. Now, this is just a story I heard second hand (since, after all, I was here at work waiting for you guys not to call and order things ), but... one of the Secret Service guys was looking for one of the girls at one point and someone said "well, I think she's in the bar!" Off ran the SS guy... she was in the bar... but not driniking... she was in the bathroom! Just another reason I'm glad my dad never wanted to be President...Paul, contact Bomber Mfg. for Reflex parts. I emailed them for prices and delivery times a couple weeks ago and haven't heard back yet, so I don't know for sure if they are fully up to speed yet or not...pull and flare,lisa----I am a nobody.

Cacophony 0 #14 August 3, 2001 Man, at least you guys have jobs. I am sortof unemployed at the moment. I do have a job but it isn't giving me much. I am a guitar teacher making $16 an hour. The only problem is that I only have 3 students, and none were there this week. There is still packing at the DZ though and I will be a S/L JM very soon. I guess its something to look forward to. I really wish it would cool down though. It sucks losing a liter of water through sweat on only one pack job.Safe landings,Alex D-23912 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mountainman 0 #15 August 3, 2001 Hey Lisa!I ordered some goggles for me and my wife earlier this week. I talked to some guy who sounded like he either doesn't like his job, or wasn't doing too well at solitare. Either way, WHY DIDN'T YOU ANSWER THE PHONE??? Hmmm????Oh well...maybe next time. BTW, what kind of deal can you make me on two protracks and one jumptrack???Something totally new...and Richmond Boogie info! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
