First snow mobiles, what's next...renting a Winston Cup track?!

 

ohhh yaaaaaaa!

 

Read First, then post. You should have a doctor look into your hysterical blindness, cheap MS products are the least of your concerns

mitchel,

okay, not sure if i told you this one or not. but i saw a t-shirt that reminded me of you.

it said:

"A clitoris is NOT a dinosaur"

cracked me up! do you have brother??? lol!

 

 

haha, nope, no brothers, just 2 sisters.

 

So here is a question for you plain and simple: would you not try to get the best deal on something or do you just happily pay asking price for everything? For ex, I am assuming you have no prob paying $60 for an audio or video cable retail when you can get the same thing for $6-10 online of the same quality. If you wanted to get software, would you not at least ask to see if someone could get it for you at a discount? If none of the MS employees on here want to do that fine, but let them speak for themselves or not say anything at all. No need for you to answer for them imho. Cheap MS products are the least of my concerns...tell me Mitchel do you know what all my concerns are? Don't think so...so no need for you to

 

Where's the popcorn...I'm in this for the entertainment factor.

 

Dogs are ok here.... actually if you had a pet monkey I don't think they would care... they pretty much let you do anything and everything as long as you are contributing to the better good in some way. I find my job generally sucks, but the company is amazing for how it treats it's people, and there are some pretty cool (and clever) folks here.

In most places (the vast majority) you have your own office. So your dogs can chill in your office with you.

thanks seth!

i wondered if it was really true! don't laugh....but i actually considered microsoft at one point in my career due to the doggie at work factor! of course, along with other factors! =)

JT....did you bring tahoe to work?

 

I don't care... if I want it I just get lord platinum to pay for it... it automatically empties itself every month. It's generally frowned upon to "re-sell" our software at a discount (which makes perfect sense to me!). There store is there so you can buy gifts for clsoe friends and family, and get the latest MS products for cheap for your own home use (which is great... at work the software for work computers is free, we go to an intranet site and there are hundreds of programs we can just download and install on our work machines... being able to outfit our home machines for the cost of the packaging is nice).

You can get legit vista and office products at some of the second hand stores for cheap, I might check there.

Seth.

 

The health, holiday and stock benfits are great here also, this company helps it's people. If you work hard and have agreeable managment (i wish) you can do well here quickly.

Seth,

early congrats!

i see that you have the RS orange TT on order! very cool! when do you expect it to be here?

you know we're dying to see the pics!

 

Really hoping the car shows up in January, and our new daughtor should show up in March! I think `08 is going to be a fun year!

I didn't bring Tahoe with me to work, no.
