1. 7 days ago on Working It Out

   So, I was asked to do a report, but the request made no sense. It was for a guy who was three levels up in management. So I just went and talked to him and asked what he wanted.

   One Christmas I brought my family to work. I gave my kids a roll of quarters and let them at the vending machines. Then let them watch movies on the projector TV in the conference room. They thought it was great.

    I used to be able to call CVS and get a pharmacist, but there is no longer any option to get through. You have to leave a voice mail that may or may not be answered. Now it is faster to drive to the store and talk to them in person.
