In the vein of Bob Dylan...a minor [rant]...

I went to bed about 11:00 last night. I'd been checking weather.com because everyone had been saying we were gonna get some snow.

Not a word about it.

Wake up this morning...snow...check weather.com and lo and behold...now we have a storm and flood watch/warning for today and tomorrow.

WTF...did they look out the window?

rep for what?

Paint or sign supplies?

Signage, she has to do the equivalent of 5200 dollars per month to earn 1300 dollars per month, that`s the minimum per our contract.
She has only done 7000 since Novemnber last year and I do on average 11000 a month aside from the painting.

Time to clean out the deadwood. A rep that complains about her salary is NOT doing her work
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

My favorite saying about my profession and the weather predictors:

"Economists and weather forecasters are the only people who can make an abundant living without ever being right."
996 forks, BoomTubes, frame sliders, CRG bar-end mirrors, vizitech integrated tail light, rizoma front turn signals, rizoma grips, cycle cat multistrada clip ons, pantah belt covers - more to come

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H. L. Mencken

They did, and it was sunny and beautiful in San Jose, where the servers are hosted. (Or maybe it was Mumbai).
