Suck it up... I agree. Suck it up. It's -7 F and -33 F with wind chill here right now. It's probably about 45 or 50 here in Japan, but I'll be in southern california soon. Yeah, I'm in Houston... probably going to hit 75 F on Christmas. Ridiculous.

- Have lots and lots and lots of sex. - Experiment with recreational drugs. I have yet to touch the stuff but have always been curious. - Visit Australia, specifically Adelaid. - Stop working on the weekends, drink more alcohol and smoke if and when I want to smoke (never been a habitual smoker, but wouldn't mind it if I'm gonna die in 5 months). - Spend more time with my family. - Donate and/or sell my belongings.

well, she comes on these here forums now, so, i can't divulge that information. heehee. So, you might not need our help after all. If she gets on dz.com, the secret's out!

I'm gonna say two.

Actual Age - 23 How old I feel - 33 I'm an 'early to bed, old fart' as well and after this knee surgery I feel like I can't do ANYTHING without hurting myself... all that coupled with my inherited work-a-holic gene, I'd say I feel about 10 years older than I actually am. How old I look - 20 Some people say 18, some say 22, some say 25. How old I act - 15 and 45 Depends on the day. Some days I act like an immature teenager and some days I act like my father.

Unfortunately, I now look like an ass. Wether or not that's true is not up to an internet forum. I really was just looking for insight, this is situation I have never encountered. A few more bits of relevant info: 1. My employer is small, very new company. All employees have been treated like employees, taxed as SE's and have NO benefits. He's been in business for almost 2 years. The IRS would have a blast auditing him. 2. I've been with the company for about a year. I have been taught close to ZERO from my bosses. Needless to say, they have been bad managers YTD. 3. My employer was about 14 days from being fired off of Client A's account. I came on board, showed some intiative and turned it around. Client recognized it and rewarded. 4. My boss was previously asked to leave another company because sexual harasment law suit was filed against him. They said leave or we're firing you. He left. Had I known this a year ago, I wouldn't be working with him. 5. I hardly signed a contract when I started working. Like I said, small start up business with people who don't know what they're doing running the show. 6. Yes, my employer knows about the bonuses. He supported them. 7. The company would suffer A LOT if they lost Client A. We have no other clients bringing us anywhere near the same amount of money. 8. My boss is not a good manager (to say it lightly) and has no idea how to do what I do. I work with a specific breed of monster and since I essentially rescued the account, I kind of feel like it's my baby.

That's a hell of a gamble and if it didn't work out you'd be screwed for certain. In rough times like these you can't be 100% sure you can steal a client. Never mind the fact it's considered unethical by most professions too. Depending on the exact business, it might even be grounds for a lawsuit. I can't really give you any solid advice here, but you really do need to be cautious when dealing you're perceived to be as was once told to me "holding the department hostage" because you're "too important" for some aspect. Depending on the boss, he can become threatened and move to minimalize your importance, which then makes you vulnerable to all sorts of nasty things later. The best thing I think would be for the client to periodically reinforce how important relationships are with you to your boss and your boss' boss, but that's awfully difficult to pull off. I shouldn't get so defensive, so quickly. I should mention that this client previously confronted me about moving to a different company with his account and not for performance reasons, for business relationship reasons. HE asked ME to move first. For timing reasons, it didn't pan out but he's put me on "hold" and told me that I should be "prepared to move at any time".

What my bosses don't know is what kind of influence I have on the account. It is possible that if I picked up the phone and called my contact with Client A and explained to him situation, he just might say let's move. I have a better relationship with Client A than my boss does. My employer might just be fucked.

Let's talk in hypotheticals... I have the following: Client A - GREAT experience for me. I'm learning a lot (not because I'm being taught but because I'm not an idiot, I can figure things out and I work harder than the average employee). Greatest single source of income for my company. One of the highers ups with Client A has given me one bonus and will be giving me another at year end. No one else at my company knows how to manage Client A's account and they are very demanding. It's a FIVE STAR account. The same higher up who's bonusing said to me "the only reason

Whatever you do, don't lie to the kid. My parents told me lies as a kid and I didn't know I was lied to until I was in my late teens. It really really pissed me off and made me start to question what else they lied to me about. These weren't small lies either. BIG lies.

This thread pisses me off. Not the original poster or his question, but all the bull shit. Causation vs correlation. bite me. No, not all Americans walk around carrying fire arms. I own, have a CHL, do not carry, but keep a 9 mm under my bed.

Fear not, I figured it out.

I feel so incompetent. I turned off the arrowhead and now it's drawing a rectangle.

Nah, that's not the problem. I know enought to look at that. It's actually trying to draw a really big arrow. Any more ideas?

So I'm not a photoshop pro, but I can figure out how to get what I want done. However, I've apparently done something that is stopping me from drawing a simple line. When I use the line tool, It draws a triangular vector thing. What the heck did I do and how do I fix it? I just want to draw a freakin line. Help is greatly appreciated.

I would KILL to see these guys live. Their website isn't very informative... do they tour often? I lied - they'll be in FL on Dec 6th! I might be buying a plane ticket, soon. Yeah, I don't think they've been "found" either... i heard about them from a friend of mine who stumbled across them on itunes using the genius thingy.

Anyone heard these guys? They have some awesome songs out. "Adelaid" "The Unwinding Cable Car" ... to name a few. I'm obsessed with them atm.
