Until you get the “PTO Request Denied” email.

I think my wife gets 6 or 8 weeks off now. Either way, it doesn’t matter. She can never take the time. And when she does, she’s still bombarded with emails and phone calls.

Guess it depends on the company

I will be on board the 3:04 Amtrak Silver Star Train #91 out of DC headed for Jacksonville (I Love it down there) I'll get there (If the train runs on time) at approximately 7:10 Thursday Morning. Plan on seeing a few friends and have a little fun!

Instead of a sign that says "Do Not Disturb" I need one that says "Already Disturbed Proceed With Caution."

Have fun! I want to get back down there at some point but I want to go in November/December when there us a home game I can go to in decent weather. Early season games are not my friend.

If I may ask for a quick poll:

To smile or not to smile for DL, Passport or CCW picture?

Mine could easily pass for a mugshot.

Same here. That’s how my license looks. I initially asked for DL. Because if the main consensus was no, then I definitely wouldn’t smile for a ccw. But I added the other options. Not sure I want to look like a goofy smiling freak or a guy that looks like he shouldn’t be allowed a ccw.

My first ever FL license after I moved from Philly in 1991 was pretty humorous. My wife and kids had not moved down because we wanted them to finish school. So I was living like...well...my wife wouldn't be moving down for six months. I was really hungover, bloodshot eyes, unshaven, and my hair looked like I had just crawled out of bed...because I pretty much had. It was quite the attractive photo.

They tell me to put in my partial and take off my hat.

That’s pretty funny. I think I was 38 when I had to renew my license the last time. They said I didn’t have to retake my photo but I could if I wanted. Which seemed odd to me considering I was 30 in that photo. Not only 30 but I didn’t even remotely look my age. I was actually stopped by a cop for truancy on my 30th. I figured I’m almost 40. Let’s update it. I too was a bit hungover and my age is starting to catch up to me. Retaking that photo was a big mistake. Oh well.

Sit in the waiting area for over an hour at the DMV and you expect me to muster a smile?

I was staring daggers at that agent.

If "Take the bloody photo, I was supposed to be back at work a half hour ago" were a face, that's mine.

Yeah, 2 years ago when/if I got carded I would proudly pull out my ID. Now, occasionally when asked, I’m tempted to tell the cashier “eh… on second thought, I don’t want it anymore”.

Seems like CuraLeaf never keeps the same strains available after a while. They seem to get new stuff every month or so, for some reason. Like my Layer Cakes.. No Layer Cake this time.. Substituted that for some Orange Kush Cake, will give it a whirl after the Strawberry Diesel..

But the Strawberry Diesel seems to have a very nice draw and is stronger than the Layer Cake.. Doesn't make me cough either.

And yup... As a kite right now haha
