Aw hellaciosness!

I will be be wearing a tie, dress shirt, and pants.


I have done that, before .... this pic that is.




Notice the cut out sides of the top if you need to vomit.

Damb! Got to get some new shirts with a 17-17 1/2 inch neck. Pants are

staying the same. I have too much invested in my waistline.

Life is tough like that, buddy.

Congrats.

Hey..may be a little late... but you know I only stop by once in a great while.... Congrats man. That is great news that I am happy to hear.

Will you be coming down in the last week of October again? It would be cool to meet up again. I think this year I am putting a sign up next to the welcome sign for all visitors to read.... it will say -- just because you can take your clothes off , does not mean you should. --

Congratulations, Barry. Looks like more Buffett concerts for you this year.

[Marnin Grita Guy]

So you should know how I have changed, the attire is different but I am still me.

I think.

Be afraid, be skeered.



My friend that took the pic has a very nice camera and wanted to do several shots, I just did a stoopid pose and said that was all I needed. She wanted to do more shots, why? I am the same buffoon in the picture that you all know. I am OK with that, just thought you would get a giggle out of the tie and all.

Is that your Hallowe'en costume, Barry?

[Karacal]

See you next week!!!

Uh . . . don't take this the wrong way but . . . do you know much you look like Michael Scott (Steve Carrell's character in The Office) in that getup?

So I have not been around much lately. Work of course is the culprit. I have

now learned that our regional manager over around 200 stores has "retired"

effective immediately. Our store is a market office store meaning that the

market manager over 13 stores in our market has her office here. A number of

market office positions were eliminated Friday as well. Our store will also

become the regional office as well. It is possible I will be moving on .....

up the ladder again. If this happens that would of course be another raise. I

do not want to do this if I can help it as I can be moved to other locations.

I am getting into the groove of the different schedule and with the holidays

over I should be back more often now. If I do move up I would be working 3

days on and 3 days off, thats like only working half a year.

[C-Dawg]

Dude....another raise??? You'll be able to afford to join the "Thong of the Month" club now!!!

[springparrot]

WOW (((Barry)))

[SMLCHNG]

Wow, Congrats if it all works out for you, Barry!!!

[flipflopgirl]

Congrats Barry and good luck!!!!

[Snowparrot]

Resist temptation, Barry!

That's wonderful! Just make sure it shows up on your paycheck when it's supposed to. I got a $5,000 increase 3 months ago. It wasn't showing up and I was told it was a payroll department glitch and they would pay the retro due. After 2 1/2 months, my boss told me it was denied by the head of HR; policy didn't allow it. My boss and her boss, a senior VP, said they didn't know about the policy and they sure were sorry. Yes, they sure were sorry all right. Did I mention tomorrow is my last day?
