Sitting is much more convenient when you're surfing FBG on your phone trying to avoid your kids. 

You can't pee while standing and avoid peeing on your kids?

Is there anything else to do in Wisconsin?

THE PACKERS ARE ON, GUY

 

[Rustoleum]

Please let this be the game that gets Marvin Lewis fired. Go Bears.

They’re losing by 26 to the Bears.

$20 says Lewis gets a contract extension tomorrow AM.

THE PACKERS ARE ON, GUY

That’s debatable, pal.

 

[kevzilla]

Yeah, I  wouldn't say the Packers are 'on'.

Please dear Lord let Cleveland finish this out!

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

Just as GB has a 65 yard PR.

This Vikings game is making me nervous.

Cam runs for 70 yards. Damnit.

Rearranged my weekend to be here for the 9-1 delivery window for the Mexican furniture that is 6 weeks late.  Didn’t show or call.  Office is closed on Sundays.

We had a washer dryer issue last year. When they brought it and installed it they did it wrong. Took 6 tries for them to get it right.  People suck

How the hell do screw up an install 6 times? Washers/dryers are easy to put in.

They exclusively hire guys that have been fired for incompetence at quick oil change shops.

Looks like those people haven't had any reason to stand up in a while.

months ago my wife made a point of saying how great it would be if we could go to the local Escape Room with her friend & her friend's husband. maybe we could make a date night of it. maybe even for her birthday or something.

wife's birthday was saturday. we did an Escape Room, dinner & drinks.

my wife was angry all night long. she didn't like "being surprised".  her friend had to remind her that she got exactly what she had been asking for, and talking about all summer.... so stop being a baby and enjoy life for once.

This is very good news. It means your wife now hates her friend,  and not you.

Precisely. She took one for the team.

Is the friend hot and / or the husband cool?   Nothing worse than having to go out with some uggo and her dorky boyfriend, especially if he wants to talk about fantasy football

You forgot to tell us if you were successful in escaping or not.

 

[Limp Ditka]

Nope. He's still married

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Not too often but Ill get the occasional "how's your fantasy teams doing" in these situations

husband is a good guy. we get along just fine. wife is fair enough. she's blunt as hell without being mean about it

 

[mr. furley]

no we had 2 clues left. seconds away from only having 1 clue left.

So should I just picture a typical Wisconsin girl?

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Apparently Google images of Typical Wisconsin Girl bring up a lovely lass painted like a Holstein cow...nice udders

atypical this one. more or less.

I'm bummed. We do a cultural influence grade thing at work where coworkers grade each other on whether they enjoy working with each other. I dropped an entire letter grade, and am in the bottom 25% of the company. I wish I knew what I did differently this year. Last year I was in the top 20. 

I should probably bring more cash to work, or spend more time on the ol' knees.

WTF does that mean?  Dressing up in a kilt/toga/sombrero/dashiki/overalls?

Work culture. I wish we were highlanders, but mostly we're just nerds, except the marketing team, where the hot people live.

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

Work culture.

Oh.  I really hate that word when it comes to businesses and schools.  

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

This has been crammed down our throats for the last 2 years.

Build a culture of efficacy

Sounds like a really awful practice guaranteed to breed mistrust and crush morale. I've never heard of a company doing this.

Most companies crush morale and breed mistrust, they just don't formalize it.
