Just got finished with a meeting with my business associate. His comment to me went something along the lines of "....if you had anticipated what those yaywhos at the office had wanted back in January we wouldn't be going thru this..." Cute Frank - Thats kinda like predicting what kind of shoes my youngest daughter wants for her prom dress next year!
I HOPE I can spend at least one day this weekend taking Melissa for a li'l spin...I HOPE!

:dodgy:they've changed their minds 8 times. Who could have anticipated that?
Idiot.
If you knew Frank my business associate - he just loves to pull your leg. His thought is why fight more money. Frank has a sense of humor that takes some getting used to but I have worked with him for over 15 years and all he does is laugh about stuff like this. Its frustrating for him though, because we also found out today the company wants to start planting houses in two months and it takes at least four months to get your deisgn work and subdivision plat final approved by the city and county. Itn retrospect Frank did warn me this would happen but after the eighth time its starting to wear on both of us.

o.k, I thought Frank was your boss!
In a lot of ways he is because he ultimately signs everything I do. But he isnt because we are both consultants for the same outfit. He just passes the work to me and I work it thru. He staves off the folks at the city and county though, so I can get the project finished. He is really a go between for our client. Its a bit complex but it works. He is actually expecting to retire sometime in the next couple years. Once he retires - I will most likely shut my consulting work down, something Mrs B is really looking forward to.
I have a pet peeve, and it might relate to what has already been discussed. However, today's peeve for me, is when adults, in their 60's act like 4 year olds. Just letting their immaturity shine for all to see!
Another that I just had the vast pleasure of experiencing, yet again:
Those high-tech auto-cyber-flush toilets that a.) don't wait until you've removed your arse from The Position before they spring into action, and b.) go all geyser-wannabe and present you with a free shower of your own waste.
Sorry for getting all scatalogical here, but much as I love cutting-edge technology, I do
not need a toilet with AI, thanks. ~ urrrggh ~
