Does anyone know if it is listed anywhere specifically, when the company can deny an entire category, e.g. M88 B, "set condition min credit" (Admin=0)? Essentially we are all being forced to fly ALV+ and forgo many GS awards. Seems a lot of money taken away (big concession), if the company can arbitrarily withhold this award in PBS.

Same question for Denial mode. I was under the impression that when denial mode was used throughout most of the category, it was due to everyone wanting the same days off, e.g. Christmas, Thanksgiving etc.. Even over the holidays, it didn't touch near as many as this month.

My channel, YouCharts&Graphs, is not going to be very popular compared to YouJesse or YouBoob.

I get that. But I'm kind of like that coffee shop outside of the theater, after everyone flows out of YouJesse or YouBoob, happy, then I have a chance. My next show is "How to Sort the Seniority List on Microsoft Excel".

Speaking of Excel, did they take away our deal with MS Office? I still can't find it.

"$200 custom fit" must be a part for a boat or airplane. Can not even comprehend what the heck you are referring to. For $200 I'd be expecting "genes" not "jeans."

It has been a while since we handed out any awards on this site. Leave us your address and one of our lovely assistants will get this to you right away in the mail:
