We often compete against guys who use PowerPoint and screen shots and "blah, blah, blah" to prove business cases -- Lazy, Lazy, Lazy.

When we try to talk people into spending 6 figures with us -- which takes many months, we really want to prove they should.

If I never get to see another PowerPoint slideshow, it'll be too soon. Everybody sees fit to use them. I for one think it shows an amazing lack of imagination... It takes absolutely no brain power to create a PowerPoint slideshow. When i watch one it kinda makes me feel the same as when I see kids with motorized scooters! I just want to yell out the window to cut the engine and push the thing. Maybe there wouldnt be so much childhood obesity then!

my line of work is 6 figures minimum as well (per month).

Pretty much everything I buy at work end up costing six figures!

it felt wierd. the last time i used one was maybe 8yrs ago? lol how does paper fit through that thin cable??

I hate effing with fax machines. I mess with command line interfaces in routers and switches all day, yet usually wind up screwing up a single page fax.

Thanks and just as soon as i get myself 20 hours of consecutive sleep, I will be engaged in the Z driving and sex thing. I have already set Mrs. Dr. onzedge's expectations, so she is napping now in readiness preparation.

Hi Mr. Gale!

Sadly no. Woke up with worse vision than previous days and the drive in was pretty scary. If I can't figure out what's wrong with me, driving may be cut for me.

Then you at least have it easy!

I hate putting money towards a diagnosis. That money could go towards wheels.

You can't enjoy wheels if you go blind, or worse...

Wow, Pint!

I hope that you discover the cause of the problem.

Pintsize725 · 06-14-2012, 11:10 AM

Maybe one of you can point me in the direction I need to go. If you're in for some light reading and general complaining.

Thread relevancy: I drove in to work today for the first time in 2 days. I missed my baby.

I know that it feels good to have her back, huh? I drove my car into work on this beautiful day, too. I will be taking her on another road trip tomorrow to Vermont. Going to watch my niece graduate from high school.

If you're in for some light reading and general complaining. Thread relevancy: I drove in to work today for the first time in 2 days. I missed my baby. ( Click to show/hide ) About two weeks ago I went to an opthamologist because for a month prior, my right eye (good eye) was watering up and not properly draining. They ran a test for blocked tear ducts, she said it was negative and gave me some drops thinking it was just irritation. I used the drops for a week. The day after I stopped the drops, I woke up and realized that I couldn't see as far as I used to. My eye is still watering up too. For the last few days, I've felt sinus pressure around the eye and today I can feel pressure all over my forehead. Today my vision seems worse than yesterday. I've been looking online for answers about this stupid drug. A doctor on a message board says that my symptoms worry him and that the drug should be out of my system by now and no longer affecting my vision. So, $190 later, I've got ruined vision and she wants me to come back on the 26th for another follow up. I went to a regular physician twice before the optician. The first time they found a scratch on said eye and gave me an antibiotic to use for a week. Well watery eye was STILL there so she said it could be a blocked tear duct, so go home and do some hot compresses and massage it, I need to refer you to a specialist. __________________ Tracie
