Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

This company keeps calling me

This is an aforementioned impossible sales mission job. Skip that! Apparently Jeffy had this job for a month ... 12 hours a day, solid. I saw a 6'4" or taller man who clearly had one bench seat to himself, rotund front, in the truck. Get new business or hit the road. It was MI: LX (60, like the hours). There was the lackluster automated call, that concluded that I had a GED or HSD and that I had passed the preliminary qualifications. I guess that meant that I was living, over 18 and had some high school-like education. The fact that my education went beyond that is unimportant.

How I succeeded with taxes without really trying

I used OnlineTaxes. It was cheaper than TaxCut, and TaxCut didn't work for me. It was far cheaper than TurboTax, so if you haven't done your taxes and your taxes are fairly simple, I suggest you use OnlineTaxes. The state surrended my money in around 6 days and the feds surrendered my money around 10 days.

the smoking I smell isn't rare

About 80% of the people where I work smoke. Yuck! It is an appetite suppressant for me. I am surprised that they smoke where they do, but it isn't my company. I would definitely change that, though it would peeve people.

I learned new things today and am more tired today that yesterday. It's going to snow, it's going to be another same-length workday and I will likely be a wickedly tired man at the end of the day.

Sometime, I'll put a name to this company.
