Help needed on Marlboro contest question II

I guess they thought he had management skills or maybe being an accountant they figured he could watch the bottom line.
I'd say they were wrong on both counts.

Been trying since yesterday to get to STL, and can't get out of SLC, so I guess I won't be going to work today or tomorrow.

I just checked the FAA site it looks like Denver is still closed and several airports have ground stops, including Chicago, Houston, SFO and JFK.

i once had a job where i had two offices on oppisite ends of the building. the ahole that i was reffering to earlier. if i was in one office doing my paperwork he would come up to make and ask me why i wasn't back in the other department watching what my employees were doing.... last time i checked you couldn't be in two places at once!!!!

I would have asked him nicely how he suggested you do that? Put it right back on him. If you expect something from someone then you have to tell them how to do it. I am not sticking up for him. I would have just put it back on him to give you the answer since that is what he expected from you.

my exhubby has degrees, one in international business, ecominics, plus a degree in computers, he also went to nursing school for a bit. now he owns an automotive repair shop!!!!

I'm not slacking I'm just P.O.ed It's been a crappy day.

whatcha po'ed about?

I vented earlier this morning, but long story, short. I caught hell from our customer because his building went way over the original budget. I explained to him that it was because of all the changes that he made that caused the price to go up. Then my boss sided with the customer and went up one side of me and down the other. It didn't matter that the project had been going for over a year and I just inherited it three months ago.
And the day went downhill from there.

Thanks, Unkie! Southwest agent told me that Denver wouldn't open until tomorrow sometime, so I'm probably out of luck until it does open. There's lots of stranded people in SLC because of it. At least I have a home to go to! Count my blessings on that one!

Sorry you're having a crappy day!

i gave it right back to him several times....never got a straight answer.

i guess he's doing pretty good for himself. funny we were married for seven years and i never once saw him work on a car!!!!
