Did you get your learn on with the new phone system?

Yeah, that was actually pretty cool. It interacts with Outlook and you can answer your phone from your computer. Fancy stuff. I like the new system.

...however, because of the 8-10 people in the large training area for phone learnin' we had to have our company wide safety meeting in the break room. People crammed in, standing room only. I said eff it and came back to the old building...I think I'm the only one here.

 

[jagee]

We could have had phone training in 1 of the 2 conference rooms built for a group of ~10 people at the new building, then had the safety meeting in the large training area. But nooo...that makes too much sense.

So we have this company cafe that tries to fancy up their menu with silly **** sometimes, but it's always executed poorly. They should really stick to burgers and fries. I just asked the 'manager' if the farro salad was "gluten free"... She's looking into it for me.

For those that don't have a culinary background... "Farro" is literally prepared wheat berries. It's about the most gluteny substance on the planet. I was trying to make a joke.

 

[68NOVA]

It's OK brother.

I laughed at the joke.

 

[Birds Away]

I learned something today. Unfortunately, I will sleep tonight and it will be gone.

I wouldn't have known what farro was if you didn't tell me.

Almost lunch time.

And that's fine... You don't run a kitchen and create menus items around an ingredient when you don't even know what it is.

True

"Hey Jagee, come look at this... Does that dirt have dirt in it?"

Lemme look...nope. No dirt here.

Being that ill-informed about ingredients you are using is actually dangerous.

Yep. Hope they have some epi-pens handy.
