Year end review went as expected (not meeting manager's expectations, first time I had that in my 39 years, would have been nice to have those expectations shared before review time), raise and bonus were minimal.

I had similar. Boss said minimal increase because I was out on disability. It is what it is.

I only have 36 yrs of working.

Presently a clear a sunny 30コF. We arrived at Bradly International (Hartford CT/Springfield MA) ~ 1:00AM this morning and checked into the Sheridan Hotel at the airport where we parked our car before we left. Fortunately it is in a parking garage so we do not have to deal with all the accumulated ice around here. We are taking our time getting moving so we can pick up some really decent barbecue takeout for tonight's dinner. We may see some snow squalls on our return home with the approaching cold front and then single digit temperatures for morning low's until the weekend. The NWS has issued black ice advisories. It should be interesting getting home. I really do not know what kind of frozen precipitation has fallen or will be,
.......................................
Welcome back :) enjoy your pillow and bed tonight.

I wasn’t having my best morning so I took a nap, after lunch I’ve been fine. Too cold to do much outside, I’m under orders to do virtually nothing for another week. So we will see.

Mostly, the murmur was caused by the leaking valve. It wasn’t bad until I had the sepsis this spring, it damaged it severely.

Pretty out but cold and windy.
Have a good one. Prayers.

Hawkeye & Buckeye- I am sorry to read about your reviews. 39 & 36 years with one employer is awesome. I believe quite a few of the other regular posters here have similar employment histories. I wish that I could relate, but I am familiar with "reviews" as yours. It still amazes me how "essential" employees get relatively poor reviews. Social justice warriors usually are “rolling stones” employment-wise :rolleyes:, but it can be worth the roll. :cool:. Corporate loyalty seems to be one-way nowadays.:mad::(

Hawkeye- If your boss is so out of touch/out of the loop with what is happening and/or doing anything proactive even w/i his own department, he may soon be corporate toast. It may be a corporate food chain thing

Paul- A belated happy birthday to your Wife. I wish her many more in health and happiness. That is some “black ice” I’ve never had it that bad. I have had our vehicles parked in the driveway start sliding downhill overnight when temperatures rose overnight. This has happened more than once.

Randy- I am sorry to read that you started the day poorly; take care.

We got our barbecue and started homeward. The mall where we shop has the supermarket/pharmacy we use the most, a medical supply, and eyewear store. I got prescriptions and food while Wifey got her cast waterproof arm cover (Thanks RNG!!!:D) and her fall related bent up glass frames re-aligned. As we got closer to home the snow associated with the pending cold front started falling. The new snow plus an apparent 4” of fresh snow made our final hill going home a little dicey, but the contracted plow guy plowed and sanded our driveway. :cool: All 5 of our hardwired smoke detectors were “a beepin” when we got in. I found 5 never used 9V batteries of unknown age and put them in my shirt pocket and replaced all 5. After getting everything back it appears that one or more may be dead (I need hearing aids badly). I do not like this, but I shut the smoke detector circuit down and will buy some more 9V’s and re-test all the installed batteries. I hope it’s a battery issue and not an issue of aging/dying smoke detectors. The last time I had to replace them I also had to replace the hardwired connectors :(.

It’s nice to be home and tomorrow we bail out Brogen.
