Yeah, there's hope for the $700... They just notoriously take forever to pay their contracted employees. I should've have quit cold turkey back in November (when I did quit), instead of offering to help them through a transition. Now, nearly 7 months later, I haven't seen any movement on their end, and I'm still doing the work... though, much less of it, I must admit. Three months late is par for the course it seems in professional sports, not sure how they get away with it, but they do. And the worst part is when you see the envelope in the mail, you get all excited hoping it a full payment of like $1000 or something and it turns out to be just the balance of the oldest bill for like $300. Sure, you got paid, but it doesn't feel like it. Hi LM!

I know my sons would love something like that but we are spending the weekend planing vegetables in the garden which I am sure they will enjoy too! The free car show sounds like fun.

I love people watching. As a matter of fact it is kind of a bad habit of mine. Is there any hope for your $700? I'd be pretty darn pissed and harassing people for that much money. Especially 59 days late. Yay for free entertainment! I love people watching. As a matter of fact it is kind of a bad habit of mine.
