How bout dat Chapter 11?

:dillerman:
It's a gut punch to :thanksobama: apparently. Trying to give the EPA the middle finger by relieving our ethanol blending obligation. We'll see what happens.

All I know is it means in a year, when we have new owners and a dodgy balance sheet, they'll bring in consultants to downsize us. Seen it happen twice, so pretty sure that's what will end up happening.
I fucking HATE that shit. :rage:

every time he is sick, he's been sick on a monday before some important meetings. every time. and when he's out, it means not only am I early shift (like today, when doing support desk), but i am also late shift, since someone needs to be here.

And? So?

Dang. Is your dealership hurting or is this a corporate money grab?
I'm going with a little of column A and a little of column B.
I was talking with Rob a few weeks ago, its definitely a lot of column A... :dislike:

I'm not sure. They aren't naming her after Oakley, they just like the name. But I agree that it does seem a little odd. Cool name though, and not common, so I think they just like it for that.
I would name her maybe Kylie or something like that. Oakley seems kind of Tom-boyish (no offense to your sister that has that name already
I’ll let them know that some random dude named Rudy thinks they should name their child Kylie. It will get 5/7 consideration, I’m sure.

:dat:
:rudy: , here's some advice: Never get in the way of new parents naming their kid whatever the fuck they want. They will immediately get defensive and will be :whocares: what your opinion is.

ESPECIALLY if you're some random dude named Rudy on the internet. :lol:

Mom wasn't sure if she'd be physically able to travel after starting treatment today, so she flew out last Thursday night just to spend some time with my sister and her two kids. Baby wound up coming almost a week early Saturday morning. Pretty cool that my mom got to be there for it.

I'd been doing pretty good with everything, then my sister made a long post about the weekend and my mom on facebook and I just lost it this morning. Been a rough day. Not looking forward to my cancer screening this afternoon.
Sorry Sawce, you're a great dude and your family sounds 5/7. Fingers crossed your mom is going to be okay and you screen healthy.

Thanks dude. Really cool for her. She’s a cute baby too. Image

They’re deciding between Oakley (one of my other sister’s names) and Whitney.
Impressive crotchfruit
