Me old boss still maintains a desk here (he owns the facility). He keeps a big jug of E&J in his drawer and always said "Help Yourself".
I have to drive home an hour though and being in jail over New Years sucks !

My Christmas present this year was two new tires for his car after a blowout on the interstate.

Trust me I get it.......

My sales manager replies that he has authorization from the president to discuss next week, what we need to do to keep me on with this company. I'm sure some extra money would be really nice but it's not going to solve the problems that create concerns for me here.

Once you open the door it's best to walk through it.

Been my experience anyway.
