Life Lessons #22 Figure

LV and I were saying that we knew about them, but we didnt know you could buy them!

I swear that when I discover the individuals responsible for this piece of crap budget module I will shoot them dead. And then I will personally bring them back to life so that I can kill them in ever more inventive ways. Don't tell me the damn thing's logical. There is no logic about a system that sometimes will distribute salary changes automatically across the biennium and sometimes requires manual distribution, and the only way to tell the difference is to try it one way and see if it works.

For the record - if you're trying to eliminate one position and move all of its salary into another position you must distribute the amounts manually. If you attempt to auto distribute, it will claim you're fine and that you zero out on the final edit, but when you go to submit the changes it will have fits about the permanent service period being greater or less than zero, even though adding 12.0- to the existing 12.0 would logically produce the desired result, and DOES produce the desired result if you do the manual distribution. Which *looks* just the same when you're done as the auto distribute.

Stupid piece of crap.

Isn't that commercial & website the best? Sometimes, when I'm super slow at work (which is pretty rare) I'll play with the Life Lesson Puzzles and put them together.

The "Merlot & Email Don't Mix" figurine used to TOTALLY be me. Sadly, too many recipients can attest to that!

I LOVE it! If only she was a redhead.

And, the email did work, AM. The change was too funny. THanks!

Laugh all you want. But if my head had exploded from my migraine, you would have all felt bad.

I just came from another board. 500 threads about the POTC refurb! My head's swimming!

scaeagles · 06-27-2006, 10:03 AM

500???? What the hell could the topics be?

"Since the refurb, the water temperature is precisely .76 degrees colder. This simply ruins the entire experience!"

I'm exaggerating, Leo the Literal. There are many, many threads.

And the topics are like that...

LOL! I hope it doesn't get THAT inane. But, I don't read as much any more so I don't end up seeing this kind of stuff. It may just exist.

I half expect ISM to post something like my hypothetical.

What do you think Pirates will look like on the 200th anniversary of the Park? What about Tomorrowland? Will you be there?
