Sort of a cool photo. Love white Chargers, though I don't need all the bells and whistles (and costs) of the top of the line model. For me, less is more when it comes to cars. Also cool that it is staged at one of those storage lots or graveyards for airplanes found in the Desert SW. This beast in the background is obviously a KLM 747 that is basking in the desert sun.

Nice! And some remote here in MI.. ? Lots of fun stuff, most though on the tech side. Looks like from the sales/admin side they require a bit more experience in tech/software than I have. It’s been many years since I’ve been knee deep in tech stuff (like Cisco/Sun Micro other stuff) and ISPs were still a thing... ? will dig deeper into that list though!

Also, I hope everything goes well for your family, and you, based on a post you wrote a day or two ago. The first weekend of summer is only hours away.

I'm looking forward to the weekend...hope the rain lets up soon, though, want to do so some grilling. 2021 has been good to me so far with work. I did leave my previous long term contract at the end of January after 6 1/2 years, but landed a new gig with a growing local company (still 100% WFH) at a 30% pay increase and great benefits.

Stay strong my friend, I saw where the average CEO got an 8.7% increase in earnings to an average of $12.2 million paid last year as boards decided the pandemic was not a normal thing and removed all pandemic related expenses in configuring their bonus and final payout. Crazy when so many lost jobs and those of us that had full or part time jobs got no raises, they increase the pay for these over paid CEO's. CEO Pay Surges In 2020 Despite Pandemic Suffering | HuffPost Dozens of large companies "rigged" CEO pay during pandemic, study claims - CBS News Just a few of the stories hitting the web today, but crazy. I do have respect for companies that did put employees first. While I did not get a pay raise in 2020 and am hoping for one in 2021, at least DELL Technologies CEO and Chairman Michael Dell and the board and from VP on up took no pay checks at all. They committed to not laying off anyone so even our facilities people down to the hourly janitors kept their jobs and cleaned over and over the same empty buildings world wide. One Reason I love working for Dell. Respect for Multi-Cultural workforce and every job be it salary or hourly. Dell's work force has moved to 70% being 100% work from home and the next 20% with some office time and then 10% being those that have to always be on site. Take a look as we are hiring: Jobs and Careers at Dell Careers If you find something you would like to apply for, DM me with resume and let me submit you internally, it goes much faster than submitting it yourself externally. Just need to know the job number. I am also working this weekend except Monday. Take care,

Dang, I'm so sorry for you loss. As Drew has said, we're like a bunch of siblings who will argue to the teeth over petty things but in the end, we'll always be there for each other through whatever is going on. I know we don' know each other but if you want to vent to talk about anything or even just type it out to send, feel free to PM me.
