Pam, my co-worker, put in her two weeks today. Yup. she got a new better job and will be leaving Ttool within the month.

two things come to mind:
1. should I be looking for a better job too?
2. did I drive her to quit?

Firstly, work is pretty good but a lot of my friends have better.
And secondly, I really can be horribly demeaning in my sarcasm and bitter remarks.

News of her quitting has brought up an interesting thing though. One of the other employees, in an effort to convince her to stay, said that we each get a free turkey for thanksgiving.

Free Turkey! Cha-ching!

As much as I dislike the Yankees, I have a lot of respect for Hideki Matsui.

I was discussing the issue with Shamus and we decided that he’s tolerable because he’s not proud. The guy is a monster at bat but he never seems to throw it back in the face of his opponents. I appreciate that.
He also has a jet with his face on it.

a jet.

with his face on it.

Forget the yankees, if that doesn’t warrent a little respect I don’t know what does.
I think I’d lose respect for him though if it turned out he was a robot. He might be. he’s from Japan and their technology is ridonculous. just a thought.
