Hmmm.... I think I heard something like that somewhere before.... Hmmmm.....

Little Brownie Bakers are is the one I'm familiar with. My wife was a GS leader and worked for them as well for about 12 years, but left the whole thing about 7 years ago. I know they made a change to the recipe to Samoas once saying they were softer and easier to eat. My jaws would get soooo tired after eating 2 or 3 of the old ones.

So you're saying they still make them under the old names and new names? And the recipes seem different between them? I wasn't aware of that....

Dude - that's awful - we'll make a point of skipping you again to remove any possible doubt.

Note to one's self: No packet of Tim-Tams for Snowflake for raining on our parade.

In regards to space planning, has anyone introduced you to Mrs. See's wonderful confectioneries?

Dear Work,

You gave me the day off yesterday but called me no less then 15 times (15!) from about 8:15 am to 3:30 pm. You gave me the day off, along with most of our staff, to help save a little money for the month. I'm a team player. But I'd like some team player dollars to go with working on my day off.

But I guess that at this point I'll just be happy to still be employed.

Please don't take advantage of me.
