  1. And sounds like he is back to Bora Bora next week I was listening but not paying attention, what was it?
  2. What’s the backstory here? I’ve seen it mentioned multiple times but could never find the original post.
  3. My company got acquired by a larger company, and we got... 1 year salary worth of stock that vested immediately 1 year salary of retention bonus (paid if we stayed for a year) 1 year salary and benefits severance if our jobs went away before the year was up Somehow our executive committee was able to negotiate that we were eligible for both the retention bonus and severance if our job went away or they closed our office within a year. I kept my job for 5 months, coming in at 10am, going to a movie or playing golf in the afternoon, and leaving at 3pm. I then found a new job, so I emailed the new HR department and said my job responsibilities went away, and they fought it until I pointed out my new "boss" hadn't called or emailed me in 4 months. I walked away with 3x salary.
  4. She’s a fitness freak, she is cultivating mass.
  5. Cosmo employees have a conference call tomorrow and hope to reopen in June.
  6. When I heard the mountain lion talk I thought Gordo and Junior were just piling on George, but it really does look like an average sized house cat.... https://twitter.com/GeorgeDunham/status/1257296960593309697?s=20
  7. The tier 1 hosts agreed to take a pay cut instead of being furloughed.
  8. Not sure where you are flying out of, but AA still has direct flights for $72 roundtrip out of DFW.
  9. Can I get a giant storage facility built in 30 days?
  10. Blake is the one that thinks 9/11 was an inside job right?
  11. I agree there should be a prize for winning challenges. Maybe being in 5 tribunals (by winning, not voted in) counts as an elimination win. But since that isn't the rule, wouldn't it be a decent strategy for a good competitor to throw themselves in against a weak opponent early before all the weak opponents are eliminated? Also, I am interested to see how far a Bananas/Wes alliance can go, or last. I've always thought their hatred for each other was mostly an act for tv.
  12. Would that Fessy dude be playing Sundays if not for his injury or is that typical Uncle Rico talk? He performed pretty well. And Rogan has come a long way from collapsing in pain halfway through the first challenge.
  13. That's the hard hitting investigative journalism I would expect from TC.
  14. He drove all the way down to Houston to try McDonald's new chicken sandwich and wrote an article on it. His unapologetic love for everything fast food is both surprising and not surprising.
  15. That's a fun weekend to be in Vegas. I could care less about the festival but it's fun to be sitting drunk at a BJ table at 5am and watch the girls in neon face and body paint come stumbling through the casino.
