I love it! But if you're your own shortlist, we need to talk, Cookie.
OH, quick jack: Why do companies that offer direct deposit take so dang long to get it started? I don't understand!

Bway
It usually takes two pay cycles -- one to confirm your account as active in the batch and then go "live" on the second payroll run....

and it's really not that difficult to put that through... when I opened my new account at my bank, they processed the direct deposit right away...

FB. *giggles*
Ironically, my former FB moved to LA. Not very convenient.
edit - FB does NOT mean future boyfriend, in this case...

Long distance relationships... not so much.
I hate it when people bring religion to work. This guy gave a presentation at staff meeting today re: his work in Africa, and it turned out to be mission work, which is fine. But throughout he's talking about converting the muslim people of Ethiopia, and bringing the gospel to these people. It bothered me. I don't think work's the place to bring that kind of stuff up.

KMF, mine has been a fiasco since day one. I've had to give them my info twice, they confirmed it would start with this last pay cycle and it didn't. If it doesn't start Friday, I'm going to give up.

No. I am finished with long distance relationships of ANY sort!
ElTico, it's always difficult to know to what extent one should bring personal beliefs and activities into the work place... If it makes everyone uncomfortable then it shouldn't be brought up.

I think you should draw the line at discussing your proselytizing and conversion of people of other religions. :)
That said, I wish I could talk my friend into going back to church with me. I feel like such a heathen not going.

I'm very glad I found a church I like... I just don't feel the need to bring IT to work.
I only had a LDR once... not fun. Works for some people, though.

ElTico, what's so funny is that I would not mind sharing my church if/when I could find inoffensive ways of sharing that. I do enjoy church, the joy that comes from faith, the companionship, the promise of something in the afterlife. There's just so much pandering and pushing for money, money, money that turns me off.

bway, you would love the church I attend. Such community outreach...

Well, mayhap I will follow you into it one Sunday morning. Although, I'd best be sure to have a pious Saturday night, else lightning or an angel with a sword aflame might prevent me from darkening the doorways.

Sweetie, I haven't been struck with a sword upon entering the Church on Sunday morning and I rarely have a pious Saturday night! (In fact, I'm frequently with you!)

oh, true. Then I'm there. I have actually been thinking heavily about getting involved in an outreach program somehow. There are so many and I certainly wouldn't be opposed to getting involved with the programs of a church with a true spirit of charity and helping out our fellow man.

I love the comedian (whose name I have forgotten) who summed up Judaism so eloquently for me:
"this is a religion that has the ambivalence built right in."
"Yeah, I'm Jew...ish."

Now, you may join the Elks, my friend,
And I may join the Shriners;
And other men may carry cards
As members of the Diners.
Still others wear a golden key
Or small Greek letter pin;
But I have learned there's one great club
That all of us are in.
There is a Brotherhood of Man,
A Benevolent Brotherhood of Man,
A noble tie that binds
All human hearts and minds
Into one Brotherhood of Man.
Your lifelong membership is free.
Keep agivin' each brother all you can.
Oh aren't you proud to be
In that fraternity,
The great big Brotherhood of Man?
So, Wally, before you consider firing everybody, remember this:
One man may seem incompetent,
Another not make sense,
While others look like quite a waste
Of company expense.
They need a brother's leadership,
So please don't do them in.
Remember mediocrity
Is not a mortal sin.
They're in the Brotherhood of Man,
Dedicated to giving all we can.
Oh, aren't you proud to be
In that fraternity,
The great big Brotherhood of Man?
You, you got me;
Me, I got you, you!
Oh, that noble feeling,
Feels like bells are pealing,
Down with double-dealing,
Oh Brother!
You, you got me;
Me, I got you, you!
Your lifelong membership is free.
Keep agivin' each brother all you can.
Oh aren't you proud to be
In that fraternity,
The great big Brotherhood of Man?

BWS I understand your comment about money - but it takes cash to run a church and the more money the more good you can do.

Hehe. Brdlwyr, if only I could believe that's what most churches believe. Watch those televangelists (of which my home church's pastor's son is one) and tell me they're doing it with the love of God or the love of Money in their heart.
