Because a full length description would take up too many pages. I’m told everyone on the internet has the attention span of a gnat, and I believe everything I hear, so I’ll make it short today.

1. It makes me happy when someone finds my blog by searching for TLIF. TLIF! WOOO!
2. Yesterday our company meeting was held in a local theater they’d rented for the occasion. I was sitting next to ABM. The lights dimmed and he said “I feel like we should clap”.

   I said “Oh, you mean like opening day on a Star Wars movie when the THX logo comes up on screen and the entire movie theater goes nuts?”

   He said (and this is totally unfair considering he and I disected the finer points of comic book movies less than 24 hours earlier): “Or, if you’re a normal person, like in a theater when the lights dim.”

   I looked back totally straight faced and said: “What?”*

3. I am tickled, pleased, and honored to have been quoted on Blogging Dangerously. Especially since it was a sincere remark and I feel for anyone who has dedicated their time and talent to a company and gotten crap in return.**

What makes you a dork?

* For the record I am familiar with how traditional theater works, and I was only at opening day of any Star Wars movie because work paid for it and the offer was “See the movie, or stay here and work”.

** In 2008, my former employer was listed amongst Forbes top 100 places to work. In 2009, their stock plummeted and they laid off a large portion of their work force, reassigning the work load to the rest of us as they ramped up sales. Goes to show you how quickly things change.
