He absolutely was NOT. 5'11". That is funny. Maybe with his Stetson on. He might have been 5'9".

Shawn,
Do you have a picture of Wheel and I together when he was in GB?

Prayers for your family delta. I’m not sure if this is helpful, but whenever I confirm a dementia diagnosis, I recommend this book to the family.

My clients’ families have let me know it’s very helpful.

Also, good morning everyone

Got a couple calls today. Last company I interviewed with, I'm in play in either a Manuf Engr position or a QC Engineer position. No decisions have been made yet so not counting my chickens. They said they would make a decision by the end of this week/beginning of next week. Hopefully one of the two pan out.

Got another call for an IT Admin job that I applied to for a local state university. Video screening interview scheduled for the March 20th after spring break. Entry level position but competitive salary. Would like to land this one too. Benefits are pretty nice. One beni is that if you're employed at the college, you, your significant other and dependent kids get either free tuition or discounted tuition in the state college/university system. Considering the way tuition is going that's a HUGE benefit.

My h.s. classmate has worked almost 20 years in IT at Chaminade University (…the same school that beat Virginia and Ralph Sampson back-in-the-day…) and one of his benefits is his kids being able to go there for $0 tuition, they only have to pay for the student fees and their books. His two kids went there so he’s saved thousands of $$$ and since you’ve enjoyed a similar benefit via Wally World, you know full well how great it is to not hafta shell out those buck$.

The Walmart gig has served it's purpose with the freebies that they provided and I took full advantage of (free tuition for another BS degree, nice 401(k) matching, 15% match for employee stock purchase plan). I've milked them for a couple years now and I really need to get back into doing technical stuff and exercising my brain before I turn into a Walmart zombie

Although I haven’t spent as much time with MACS as Delta, I will 2nd that motion about Shawn’s height and dreaminess.

good luck to Bucky on selecting the position that suits his needs the most...

wonder if the state university IT position comes with a defined benefit lifetime pension based on final salary and number of years of employment, like all the public education/service systems in CA offer? That's a significant carrot...

Oh yah! My wife’s retirement plan from the State of Hawaii includes both a pension as well as FREE LIFETIME medical coverage for her and ME! When we were younger, I didn’t realize how good / big that medical benefit was but man, it is a SWEET deal!

6000 steps and 34 zone minutes. Just on the dog walk.

13k+ on the steps... 100+ zone minutes. Time to chill.

I don't have any photos of that meeting. I deleted my FB account and most of the photos I had were saved there.

To be fair, wheel was about as tall as I am. Pretty sure he may have been a red **** hair taller than me, so 5'10" or 5'11" are not unreasonable.
