Please use hedge funds to manipulate the market in a *positive* way, kthx /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Are you still with a firm? Or are you somehow managing someone's hedge fund independently?

I'm learning to use a Prog. Network Analyzer at work to measure electrical length vs. return loss... Super exciting stuff...

It will actually be cool when I finish the education part and start trying to program/automate our electrical testing and incorporate it into our already programmed mechanical testing equipment.

Good to hear when people move up in the world!
*high five*

Glad to hear it! Hope you do well.

<---- putzing around gainesville

i don't do much these days

Finding suitable street corners for all of your mothers to sell themselves on.

trying to become a better swimmer, ASAP.

Been writing iPhone apps. Nothing that is popular as of right now, but we are trying.

Doing a short job in South Carolina. Should finish up tomorrow. Then home for the weekend. Then going to be doing some welding at a new stadium for Jackson State College.

Been sitting home relaxing the back.Just got back surgery 4 weeks ago,so I am taking it easy.I start physical therapy next week,I have to undergo my 2nd surgery in October and my 3rd next march. So we will see what goes on,Also I am suing pepsi for a very large amount of money lol

Why are you suing pepsi?

glad to hear your moving up drew

i'm still working as an emergency dispatcher but still liking it for the most part, always different everyday. I go for my PT test the 25th of this month and if that all works out i start part time academy august 8th. that will pretty much take up my time until the middle of november. then its train all winter and hopefully be on my own by the bday.

He used to work for pepsi, and I believe he got injured on the job....don't know what happened though...

for wrongful termination

hmm...wrongful termination? what did you get fired for?

Said they couldn't hold my job anymore while I am out on Workers Comp due to a back injury.

In what state do you work? There's such a thing as an At Will Employer...

In PA, they can fire me because they don't like my hair cut... doesn't matter because they aren't required to specify a reason.

I see you live in New York. Don't waste the legal fees unless you had one HELL of a contract with Pepsi.

"A: Yes. New York State is an "employment-at-will," state. Without a contract restricting termination (such as a collective bargaining agreement) an employer has the right to discharge an employee at any time for any reason."

yeah...you are gonna lose your lawsuit...

Actually they are trying to settle already

Wrongful termination applies anyone, regardless of the "at will" state stuff. If someone fired you because they didn't like your hair, it'd also spark up a debate of discrimination. They'd fire you for it, but not tell you that's why they fired you, to cover their own ass.

Good luck with your lawsuit. I want a boat please.

If you win, please send me a box of sour skittles.

Thank you.

Well I know I am not gonna get millions and to be honest don't want that,I just want to have some kind of insurance and some money to help me out.

Perfect, that should easily allow you to afford a box of sour skittles.

I was under the impression that suing a past employer was a great way to get passed over for future employment opportunities, as it makes you look like a vindictive employee with no loyalty to the company. Hope things work out.

I hope things work out for you man /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

i support anyone who tries to stick it to the man. good luck, damien.
