Have him ask/check on the status of why the plant is closing. If it's because of foreign competition they may qualify for federal TAA benifits. Anyone laid off can petition the government to make a determination.

I knew a few people that used to work there. That's a drag that they're closing.

More jobs gone. :frown:

Its because they were sold to a competitor - Crane co. in St. Louis...

they're going to stay open, like I said - until September, finishing up projects and stuff, then they're gone

Its a joke people.... for some reason Jana is signed in on my laptop. Let all hell break loose.... I DID NOT..... I repeat I DID NOT guess her password. She was over last week and must have signed in or something. So you all need to chill. I called Jana right away.

Jake called me and asked if I signed in from his computer. The kicker was, I never did. I just got home so I wasn't able to be here when he posted. I told him to post anything he wanted. Suprise me :smile:

Last week, when I was at his place, he showed me some things on his computer, but I never once got online from there. We have no clue as to how he got access and posted under my name. My password is not easy -no way no how- it isn't even my password, so its not like he could guess it. I used someone elses password as an idea for mine so I couldn't have my personality picked. Ive never told anyone what it is.

and I do think about jake, just not as much as he'd like :wink:

Me2 - let me give you my "secret formula" for creating passwords. (kitch if you can guess ANY Of mine from this,, I'll - I dunno.. do something)

Middle name + his date of birth of any ex-boyfriend whom I dated at LEAST 7 years ago, and did not date for longer than 1 month + my we broke up so I "hate his guts" moniker = password

I guess my "steeltrap" memory for useless junk IS good for something.

passwords schmasswords. anyone ever see that little blob between the two @'s in the url above? that's the webx certificate. it identifies you to the server. its entirely possible that if someone got a link from someone else who was logged in and the @@ space was filled in that webx would let them in as whoever sent the link, especially since most of us have our profiles set up to keep us logged in forever. lance was always warning about that at pf. so let this be a lesson to those sending links around to others. get rid of the stuff between the 2 @'s in the url before sending it.

so, is that link different for me on my work computer vs. my home computer? or??

aside from typing and occasionally decorating my myspace page.. that is the extent of my computer savy.

oh, I did select a new printer the other day here at work and freak people 3 building over when I started printing crazy nonsense and then walked do to watch in amazement as they stared at the printer like it was magical.

heh. note to self - do that more often.
