No. You own that shit, pun very much intended

Hahaha. I wish it was single handedly my incompetence that sunk these companies. I know it's not because I never got my golden parachute.

Yep. Had a family member buy me Ryobi and 2 batteries. Guess I'm a Ryobi man now

I've legit been a manager for 3 companies that have gone out of business now. Not either of those two but one was a major internationally recognized brand. Seems pointless to post them on my résumé but I still do. Almost seems like I'm the kiss of death.

Yet another justification for piracy

Err on the side of taking requests at face value, especially at work and at first.

In china I had a UK roommate. He was on the phone with his mom mid week when she should have been at work. I asked if she was sick and he was like "No. She took some vacation days to tidy the house." My jaw hit the floor. My vacation days in the US were so precious and so few that I'd never fathom using any to do chores. Unreal that you can have so much vacation you'd elect to spend it doing chores.
