[quote=wit-nit;41765642] Howdy and welcome to the Questions of the Day for Sunday November 1, 2015. As a Scorpio born on November 1st, you are known for your ambition, passion and outer reserve. You have a passion that defines your inner-self. Your passion materializes as an ambition for success that leaves you unsatisfied being anything but the best. While your friends and family admire your drive, they may be most impressed with your ability to remain calm and collected in any situation. Your outer self is so reserved that others struggle to understand your true intentions at times.

Fun time:
Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Officer asks young Mikey, the engineer fresh out of Technical School, "And what starting salary are you looking for?" Mikey replies, "I'd like to start in the region of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package you offer."
The interviewer inquires, "Well, what would you say to a package of five weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every two years, say, a red hot Camaro or Corvette?" Mikey sits up straight eyes wide open and exclaims, "Wow!!! Are you kidding?" The interviewer replies, "Yeah, but you started it."

Thanks wit-nit. The other two shorties are up and we are heading out for breakies. The party was fun and I think we had about 40 people. There were a lot of comments about not believing that it was the last party but it was. It's so much work. The house is trashed, Howie ate 7 cup cakes off the table a chicken bone and a candy bar. He's fine but I was worried about him. It will take about a week to get it all down and put away. I'll miss the party but I'm done.

Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Officer asks young Mikey, the engineer fresh out of Technical School, "And what starting salary are you looking for?" Mikey replies, "I'd like to start in the region of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package you offer."
The interviewer inquires, "Well, what would you say to a package of five weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every two years, say, a red hot Camaro or Corvette?" Mikey sits up straight eyes wide open and exclaims, "Wow!!! Are you kidding?" The interviewer replies, "Yeah, but you started it."
