Not cool man. I'm still pretending that was just a nightmare. I'm keeping the faith for now.

It is not a kid friendly 2 days. Leave the little ones at home.

You could get a sitter here, but it would cost you an arm and a leg.

Why do you want the 320 so bad that you would give up seniority for it?

Didn't realize how seniority worked b/t iron. Now that I do, I wouldn't defer a class.
