ten years with the company

Postby roach » Fri Nov 14, 2008 5:35 pm

I think I may have been overlooked because I just got an email that pretty much said "quick! pick your ten year prize!!! let us know before the end of the day!!!"

there are watches and rings. I don't wear watches and rings.

there is a knife set, but it's only one kind of knife and there are 8 of them. I don't stab that much.

I think I'm leaning toward this:
iQ Sound 2GB MP3, WMA, WAV, FM Radio Player. Features clip-on design, E-book reader software, digital voice recording, simple controls, backlit LCD, seven preset sound fields, built-in rechargeable battery, and ear buds. 1.25" x 1.8"

or:
Coby 5.1-Channel Progressive Scan DVD Player. Features multi-format audio and video playback including JPEG display, picture zoom, Dolby Digital sound, parental locks, and remote.

or:
Arthur Court Grape Tray. Features beautiful grapevine motif in hand-polished sand-cast aluminum. Perfect for bread and other foods. 6" W. x 12" L

i could use the mp3 player to listen to songs in my car that are now on my computer and may really get my ass in gear on stealing music from the internet. the dvd player would increase my laze and allow me to watch dvds in the bedroom. the long walk into the living room really kills me some days. and that grape tray, I could totally have bitchin' coke parties on it... damn.

I got a small Waterford crystal bowl for my 5 year and an electric griddle for my 10 year.

see, here is what i'm leaning for. the mp3 player. I am more likely to buy a dvd player while hanging out at best buy for 30 bucks. and I've gotten even more lazy about taking cds to my car because i then at some point have to bring them back in... and i would be like future boy. digital music in my pocket.

I can't see past the grape tray... You wont have to upgrade it in a few years like the mp3 player and I can't see it becoming obsolete like the dvd player one day.

And, you can get plenty of ching lined up on a 6" W. x 12" L tray...

I assume those acronyms stand for "boss like people?" That is beyond lame. My co offers a "luncheon option;" in lieu of an award you can instead opt to go to lunch with your boss someplace nice. I've never known anyone to take the "luncheon option." Talk about a pain in the ass for all involved.
