Game on. Can I run either loyalty programs or in-flight catering, beverage division?? :D

I think we can put the Managing Director of Diamond Club in charge of the loyalty scheme. I hear he hasn't left the pub in Galway, where he's been on a solid drunk for at least the past decade. I think he can continue to "telecommute."

I'm a Palm partisan more than anything because my picture graces their walls in Atlantic City. I worked hard to become a Palmerati and I love their food.

We live on top of a "mountain" (NJ really doesn't have mountains, I don't know why they try and label them as such) so the only way I could avoid running up and down would be to run in circles. Clearly, I'm not doing that. :)

We had that discussion while touring Philadelphia, shortly before the guy almost took out the cop's cruiser. I'm laughing now recalling that scenario.

Which would you like? Beverage division may require several road trips to check out the factories and check samples.

I know, US replaces the top brass with the Box and we run the place for one year with a French work hours and vacation rules, a very nice salary and exit parachute. We can't do any worse when you think about it.

I'll run maintenance. I don't mind getting my hands dirty or supervising precision work. "HEY! Who dropped this bearing into the cat litter?"

I assume I get stuck with Revenue Management or Revenue Protection.

I learned a few things this past weekend...

1. Houston is flat, and Coeur d'Alene is not.
2. You run faster when it's 40 degrees outside, and you're only wearing shorts and short-sleeves.

My office window in 260 South Broad was 7 floors above their exhaust fan. It sucked on Friday's as they were open for lunch that day and it would make me hungry.

What sane person would put an economist in charge of generating or protecting revenue? :D

Y'all seem to have scared TJ away....

Any idea how?

#2 brings up a good point - running in NJ is no longer "fun" once the calendar hits November (possibly earlier).

I can't wait until I am running in the snow and sliding on the ice. :mad: Get. Me. Out. Of. Here.

There will be no cats so cats litter not needed.

If that's what you really want.
