Re: Happy Birthday Drufuss!

Thank you jmlikos, Cogar, ctal anf fvbounty!

Well, i had a free day yesterday (cause i was working over the weekend), i got news that some stock otpions i own for about 10 years now are about 2000 Euro less worth than the money i invested, and my car was towed (cause i was parking at a bus station) so i had to pay 200 Euro to get the car back.
The day before i found out that my ISP had cancelled my contract (so instead of 18 Euro per month i'm being charged per minute online time for two months now) and i had a useless talk with my CEO (nothing but hot air, no real decisions) about leaving the company for one year (want to move to the netherlands next spring, stay there for one year, then go back to austria and continue working).

But nevertheless i enjoyed the beginning of my 36th year of life.

Greetings

Dru

Well, it seems that you got the bad news out of the way early, so enjoy the rest of your 36th!...It's got to improve from here!


Happy Birthday!!!

Re: Happy Birthday Drufuss!

Thank you yamawho, sammy2066 and Wingit.

I'm pretty sure that things will improve.

Greetings

Dru

P.S.: For the next meeting with my division manager (i want reciprocal cancelation of the employment contract so i can get severance pay which would be about 30,000.- Euro; he wants me to simply resign without severance pay) i have prepared some data to prove the fact that my first invention here at work did save the company about 400,000.- Euro in costs of repair within 6 years.
