Years ago, that was also discussed at our firm (although it would have been for all employees). But, so many clients want to meet on Fridays that "Half-day Friday" was the compromise. :)

I live near a regional airport, all those clients and executives...flying in for their Friday meetings, and out on Friday night it is very noisy over my house. Starts at one A.M. and goes on throughout the night. :( Rant over.

There are actually 3 jobs that I've walked from after only a few months, but, all 3 times I always had another job lined up to go directly into. And, I always gave proper notice.
One was an architectural firm, back in the early 80's, that was just a nuthouse. I couldn't take it anymore.
The other 2 were retail jobs after I was laid off after 20+ years from the firm I'm now back with.
Batteries+ (now Batteries+Bulbs) was by far the most boring job I've ever had, and Kay Jewelers was pretty much just a bunch of sales people practically elbowing each other to get to the next person to walk in the store.
So glad to be out of retail.

I have to ask was that 80's firm Black and Veatch? Just wondering......

Some trip updates.

Saturday we went for a long walk on the beach. We ended up a mile away.

We stopped along the way. Saw this:

It was a photo op spot. The guy let me take her picture and hold her, which was very cool. Her name is Aloha because that's what she says.

Then we went and got lunch at Cheesecake Factory, and went back and swam in that beautiful ocean water.

Yesterday we climbed Diamond Head and did some driving. My mom took all of the pictures, so those will come later. I need to use my laptop to get them off.

Another shot of yesterday's double rainbow.

They have the most perfect rainbows out here. This was on our way to dinner (P.F. Changs. Yes, we could pick more exciting options. Anyway...)

We're all rather tired from the past few days, so we are planning on hanging out here at the resort.

Love your pictures, a great place to hang out. Have a relaxing time. :D:D:D

Bonjour again! Western ending our day early as wea going to Versailles early tomorrow. Spent the day at notre dame (climbed the 400 steps to the top) said hi to gargoyles. Then explored the area, ate good food and sat at hemmingway's table at les deux maggots cafe. I have taken a ton of pics on my regular camera but for some reason I still can't upload I don't know why. We'll have a good evening! Bon soir!

Sympathy like! I used to live close enough to Newark airport to hear the planes. My friend bought a house near Maquire AFB to watch the pretty planes. Very quiet neighborhood except for the planes!
