Quote: 1. I have a family history of diabetes. My dad and his dad as well as my cousin has/had it. 2. I've had low blood sugar since at least high school, though they said it wasn't diabetes at the time. 3. If I don't eat in the morning, sometimes I feel lightheaded and/or weak. Then if I go and eat something big at lunch (like, say, a chipotle burrito), I feel...weird. I dunno how to explain it, but I just don't feel right. |

Pat, that's the exact same way I feel... I also am
afraid to get it checked out and just call it
hyperglycemia... I mean other than the low blood sugar
thing (i could have but not diagnosed for it) and not
having a family history of it, you described how I feel
almost everyday. You feel kind of in a fog, its hard to
focus, you feel off...
Quote: I'm an insurance agent, have been for a couple months now, my new job (well its not 100% settled) is the same position but at an agency in TX. It could be different there, but most agencies just want you to put up numbers. Our only real job is to sell, if we're making sales it doesn't matter how much we're in the office. But if I'm making a good amount of sales being in the office say 3 days a week, most agents tend to realize how much money they could make if they work 4 or 5 days a week. There is a huge opportunity cost to taking time off in my job. |

I am doomed for diabetes.
My grandma and grandpa on my moms side have it, as well as all of my moms sisters (but not her or her brother) My grandma on my dads side has it, as well as all her siblings, and my dad has it, too... If I don't get it, there has got to be a huge chance that one of my kids will get it...  ">

we dont get X number of weeks for vacation at the
start of a year (unless of course you had a balance roll
over)... the way it works is depending on your time with
the gov't you get either 4, 6 (after three years, and
where i am right now), or 8 (after 15 years) hours of
vacation time per pay period... you also get an
additional 4 hours of sick time per pay period, sick time
never stops accumulating and it never goes above 4 hours
per pay period...
our rolled over hours dont have any restrictions in the new calendar year... and if you go an entire calendar year without using a single hour of sick leave or vacation time, you get a bump up in the pay scale... |

Quote: Just didn't see it working out in the long haul of it all. Why keep something going only to hurt someone more in the long run I figure. I asked her on a date or two, and the next thing i know she stayed at my house for (what seems like) about the last two to three months. I just am not ready to commit to someone (well there is one I would and she is supposed to visit soon) like that right now. Plus we are at very differing points of our lives. Me 28 her 21 it isn't all that easy to talk. Infact we hardly ever talk. But what the fuck there are plenty of fish in the sea. Hell this girl gave me her number friday (Dik recognize the bar?) May not be 100% work safe
nevermind

Alery's is a great bar...That Jessi girl is
hot...
So I've been repeating all the Lidle jokes I've heard to my buddies that I email with all day... Completely forgot that my buddies parents died in a small plane crash that he was in when he was really little... Now I feel like an ass... But at the sametime I don't because he never knew his parents... Hmmm... |

Why don't you people use you're vacation time? When
I was on hours I had 2 or 3 days saved up for emergencies
than burned the rest...

Quote: I agree - if your job can do it. My company gets paid only for the # of hours I work, so if I work less, they get paid less. So I have to have the 40 hrs/week schedule. And my leave is kinda cool. We get 200 hours/year (so, 25 days or 5 weeks), but we have flex time over a month. So, there are times where I take 2-3 days off, and make up the time, so I don't have to take leave. And we can rollover up to 40 hours, but anything additional we'll get paid for, so we don't just lose it. Quote: I have one on Sat too - and it's in the afternoon. But I like the NFL more than college (haven't watched too much college yet this year) so no big lose for me. |
