6 weeks (30) plus 17+2 is impressive. 49 days off a year, you really only end up working ~200 days a year if I'm marthing this right.

Vendor, client, customer or just a stakeholder. They all need some ceasars.
Really settles the stomach after a morning of frac juice
I remember SAFETY DAY at Shell being essentially a full day party. Zero alcohol, but the square root of zero work, plus clowns, balloon animals and BBQ.Quote:

Safety day would be something conceived by an Industrial Hygienist, the balloon animals were crafted in a fume hood.

No that is a “training course” for new grads called Shell Life. Yes that’s the actual name lol. Apparently I wasn’t cool enough to get flown to NL. But I did get a free week at the rim rock in Banff and connected with other grads, so it was a decent way to spend a week. I even got to expense the mileage to drive back and forth at a pretty generous per km rate :rofl:Quote:

It's just a loop of about 3 seconds from Letterkenny.
Haha yea, clicking a link about 12yo girls seems like a good way to get on a list.Quote:
