    Mornin', Lodge.
    I really should do that also. I assume that you can't do it yourself, and Board must do it for you.

      Correct. And it will take a while. I emailed them about a week ago, and it just got changed today.
      Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

        (I don't livestream - I'd love to try it, but I wouldn't be up for the task of sustaining an audience over time. Even the medium-ish names put in serious effort, and I can't sustain that.)

            Hi lodge. Been a while since I visited. Brent changing his username threw me for a loop this morning at work.

            Also, I too track my PTO with a spreadsheet, only because it's quicker and easier open Google Drive from my phone than to find my work laptop to log into our time app (and the mobile version doesn't show PTO earned).

            Taking two weeks off over Christmas and New Year, and I'll still have 10 days+ to use up plus what I continue to earn. My company decided to do away with the old policy of carrying over 40hrs max, and instead is adopting a rolling cap.

              All my time off comes from one giant pool, including vacation/sick/personal/holiday. It's some hospital thing I guess. This year was insanely busy so I didn't take much time off, so I've amassed like 120 hours of PTO by year's end. Fortunately we roll it over. I'd take some time next week but I'm on call this week and next. I'd take Christmas-New Years week off, but I have a big milestone of a project due 12/26.

              Friggin healthcare. People need to stop getting sick at inconvenient (for me) times.

                I've thought about changing mine. Don't know what I'd change it to though. Signed up when I was still in school and to make some comment related to the hockey band. I occasionally worry that my posts will somehow reflect on the band and sometimes find myself censoring my comments.

                  For a long time people thought I was mocking SCSU, posting as a fan from another school. People will think whatever they like, you're not claiming anything to do with the current band.

                    And so starts my 4 day weekend.

                    Can I just say how much teaching makes me happy, yet again!!

                    Good Afternoon Lodge!

                    All sorts of new and rarely seen people in here today. Threw me off my stride.

                      I had to remind myself how to check rep. Man, I haven't been remotely active in a while. And there were a few people who really, really didn't like me.

                      Shrug.

                            My work schedule is pretty black and white, so I just use the calendar on my phone.

                            Speaking of work, if we can just fast forward to Jan 3, that would be great.

                                I thought you were going for self-deprecating humor.
