Hi all. Cold and a little snow here. More snow to the north of Seattle proper. I'm ready for a few days off and sleeping in.

My direct report gave 2 weeks' notice. She was pissed off about her review. She wanted a big raise and a promotion. She got neither and somehow, with less than 3 years of experience and only one of those in safety - the rest were environmental, she is off to be the Safety Manager of the Seattle Aquarium. The job had been open for almost a year.  [laugh]

I predict that LNI (our state osha) will be showing up in late Jan at the Aquarium!

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Good morning.  [coffee]

Hope this weather doesn't disrupt my travel plans to MI tomorrow.  Thankfully a direct flight from DFW-DTW, but it's getting cold here and supposed to drop another 30* today (been down that road before  [roll] ) and the chance of snow in the mitten is pretty good.   

It's trash/recycling day.  Quite windy.  The bins are making a lovely symphony this morning.  >:(

My boss is supposed to fly out of Seattle to Australia tomorrow.  I sent him this!

Brr. The heat pump can't keep up with the cold. Upstairs has a gas fireplace to help.  Not me.

It is 57 in my living room.  Coffee and couch blanket.  Work will be warmer, but the roads are a sheet of ice.

All the busses are parked!
