    I quickly learned not to date anyone in band. You have to see them when you break up every. single. day. It's not like you can avoid them when you sit across from them!

    Yeah, I never learned this. I actually started working at the same place my (then) boyfriend was working.

    We broke up, I always saw him. Company had Christmas party, we got drunk and got back together. Rinse and repeat a few times over a few years.

    Ended up giving birth to two of his kids, lol.

    In drumline you only had morning practice with the band and you can avoid everyone when you're on the field. Then, regular class was 1st period and drumline was 2nd period. We also had our own bus for games and tournaments.

    And for corporate San Francisco types who work for companies with LIBERAL party policies. It's like they were paying us to be irresponsible, lol.

    We once took a ferry over to Tiburon and had dinner/drinks there. The person in charge of the company credit card walked through the bar holding it above her head saying, "Last call! Go get your last drink!" A bunch of us downed some Goldschläger . Then got on a ferry to cross back to SF.

    That was not a wise choice. Lots of us hung out at the railing on the crossing back home.

    You are not in United States. You returned a Code #14 error before and this is the second warning of the same HIT.

    And, yes, I am correct. Dont you dare argue with me. DEAL WITH IT.

    Really, what kind of olive oil? Damn that crap is expensive for the good stuff.

    Glad to hear your positive experiences on this bickery day.

    Here are my pronouncements:

    The best way to handle stage fright is to JUST DO IT!

    anything else.....

    -lots of mod edits-
    That about does it.

    I worked at a hotel during summers while in college and we did lots of conventions. Those Cali companies were nuts. I had a party of 25 people from some bank in Long Beach for two hours and they ran up $2K in booze. That wasn't even their main event, it was just a starter before they had to go on to a dinner convention. $80 in drinks per person in two hours, no food at all. :emoji_eyes:

    When I brought the bill the lady that set everything up was worried it would be too much and when I showed her the bill, she was surprised it was so low. :emoji_rolling_eyes:

    People got so drunk that night that one guy pissed on a stand full of beenie babies in the gift shop and someone else puked on the escalator. Security forced them into their rooms and had to stand outside because they kept trying to leave.

    I seriously thought it would never end. Once the main task is over you have survey after survey after suvey then demographics then more surveys and bubbles.
