Joe,

 JM>    I found out later the "important" work she had to was playing games
 JM> on her computer.
 JM>    She would only go out when the weather was nice, in the 65-78 range
 JM> and sunny.  Even then it was only for an hour or so.

  Sounds like "a fair weather worker". :P

 JM>    One day the chief of police was in our office "suggesting" Debbie go
 JM> out and ticket.  She replied she would and kept on playing.  He told
 JM> her a couple of more times she should do something, each time more
 JM> sternly.
 JM>    She finally grabbed a ticket book, stomped out and returned an hour
 JM> later and back to her games.

  They should've swapped out her phone or battery. :P

 JM>    She is the one I replaced and few were sorry to see her leave.

  You can go home and play all the games you want...you're fired. :P

 JM>   I don't have a lot invested and frankly don't recall what the money
 JM> is in.  Half is in bonds.  Pays little but safe, and half is in the
 JM> market.

  You'd do better with Monopoly money. :P

 JM>   One has to be in for the long haul and not get jumpy when the market
 JM> goes up and down like it does.  Just hang on and enjoy the roller
 JM> coaster ride. :)

  I'd rather be on the Merry Go Round...but then I'd be worried about being
overtaken by the horse behind me. <G>

 JM>   More of the Suck up to the Mod Society.  :)

  Got to refine my groveling technique. <G>

 > As to hanging with Daryl -- he started it!

 JM>   As he usually does.  :)

  At least you give credit where it's due. <BG>

 JM>   In May and June 2019 I took a six week vacation and traveled around
 JM> the country seeing things and visiting friends.  One of the people I
 JM> visited was Daryl.
 JM>   I found it humourous when telling people here I was going to visit
 JM> some people I only knew on line.  They reacted like the online people
 JM> where all ax murderers or something.  :)

  Besides, I bought lunch...but you got lost on the way to the feeding
trough.

 JM>   (Why anyone would murder an ax is beyond me).

  Someone should've told that to Lizzie Borden. <G>

Daryl

.... They stopped too soon with 6 Up and Preparation G.
