No, I told them after the cheque cleared.

Worked for me.  Coke didn't want to pay me proper holiday pay one year when I was called in on Christmas.  Okay, fine - I sent the corporate office an invoice w/ PO from my little side company for the difference.  And they paid it within a week. HR's still pissed at me for that one - but...

I remember when the mentality was I want features XYZ.  Product A doesn't have these, but B does. I'll buy Product B. Now it's pretty much Product A is the only viable choice for my category - I guess I'm forced to buy that and have to get used to the features I don't care for. Small wonder so...

Was it the horrid 3D bumper car thing, with the "rearview mirror"? :P

I'm fully aware of the major changes.  They were pretty much why those versions "sucked ass".  Like I said, pattern recognition.  Microsoft has a 'great idea', releases it with minimal polish.  Most folks don't like it.  Couple years after, they release a 'fixed' version that is typically well...

Eh, I figured I missed a couple generations there to be honest.  I dropped Windows in favour of Linux (primarily, Debian) back in the mid 90s, and never looked back.  I'm forced to use it at Coke, but I'm currently working on a way around that as well.

Am I just better skilled in pattern recognition than most? '95, sucked ass.  '97, fixed the 95 issues, was 'alright' ME, sucked ass.  XP, fixed the ME issues, was 'alright' Vista, sucked ass.  W7, fixed the Vista issues, was 'alright' W8, ...what the hell.  W9?  Likely very similar, with...

Is Google still allowing legacy Apps accounts to add a new primary domain, and remove the original?

To give the guy a chance to dig a deeper hole for himself, of course :3 Oy, next vacation you take, come spend a few days in Louisiana.  I owe you some drinks :P

Well, props to them for eating the cost of the mistake rather than holding the clients liable.  Mistakes can happen - how they're dealt with is what truly matters.

Seconded.  Props to Fran for trying to give him turn over a new leaf credit... but yeah, it's pretty obvious that Fabozzi's arrogance wouldn't allow for such.  More obvious that the "Chris" we've been seeing isn't the same boy we're used to watching make an ass of himself.

I still think it's cute how he pretends he can afford us.  Price hasn't changed from the last few times you tried.

Be sure to thank Jack and Jacob for starting that whole mess.

I won't use credit cards.  The very notion of debt annoys me, and I tend to go to length to avoid it (being multiple months ahead on bills, etc).

Fiction is the ColoCrossing ethos, after all.

You know that, coming from you, we're about as likely to believe the content as we would be if it was posted by Fabozzi or Biloh, right?

The endgame on tequila for me came from a bunch of us binge drinking in the barracks one night.. and apparently we ran our of liquor at some point.  Woke up to a couple of empty tequila bottles, empty whiskey bottles, and an open half-empty bottle of orange Windex.  We had an off-post run that...
