Nope I'll have my Kaylee kitty with me and if I'm lucky it'll be just us. There are some advantages to moving across the country


P.S. HIMYM spoiilers from last episode

WTF ROBIN!?! What a *&@#$!!!! You can't make an agreement like that and then back out! Especially not for some guy that you have zero chemistry with. jeez

Though I think this seals it. Barney is going to marry Robin. I think they know the fans are way more invested in Barney and Robin than they are in Nora and whatshisface.

Riona- so if it weren't in your city would you not be going??
Sounds like a fun gathering though:) Are you guys going the traditional turkey and trimmings route or something else???

Zeek-

oh my holy hell I can't believe Robin made the classic girl mistake... fell for the romantic answer without realizing it wasn't the right one. Kevin's answer was sweetly romantic, but Barney's answer shows he knows all of Robin and loves her because of her faults. Kevin's just shows his willingness to ignore and sweep her faults under the carpet not a true depth of knowledge of her as a person and an appreciation for the same... stupid women

MSA -

I'm kinda worried about how they're going to redeem her. I mean what can she possible do to make up for that? She let Barney go through the pain of admitting what he did to Nora and I was impressed about how honest he was. Then she stabs him in the back and leaves him alone to clean up rose petals. Damn!! She's got some work to do before I can forgive her for that one.

And yeah it seems like Barney loves her and Kevin just idolizes her. Not wanting to know what she did was just a silly response. Ignorance is bliss only goes so far.

Ok people...new ponder

How many unpaid hours do you work per month ... I mean mandatory unpaid meetings or actual job related work??

Sadly for me that answer is between 8-10

yeah she better really make it up to Barney big time. That poor guy. Has tohave the painful conversation with Nora, but thinks it's for a purpose and then Miss Indecisive over there changes her mind because Kevin's a shortsighted idiot and she seems to find that comforting...kinda not too happy with Robin right now

Well I'm paid salary. So, technically none. If you count that as 40 hours per week then I probably work a decent amount of unpaid overtime. Nothing overly significant though.

I did work until 7:45 one night this week. I kinda liked that though. I got picked to work on something critical and got it done even though I'd never done it before. Got to present it the next day in our department meeting. Got koodos from my manager. All worked out pretty well IMO.

Whooo!! Go Zeek master of the meeting

We're paid as though we work a 40 hour week ( and docked accordingly for absent times) but we have a series of awesome mandatory meetings outside of contract time.. it annoys me

So, surely if they dock you for going below 40 hours a week you must get overtime for going over 40 hours a week, right?
