Yes.

My experiences at the hospital (for work) in Detroit would make me follow this rule from now on.


So you're taking all of us to Italy?

Whoever buys their own plane ticket has a place to stay.


And picking up the tab at the restaurants and bars?

First night only.

Never let a Canuck be responsible for the tip, either. :mad:



Last time I asked for a raise, my boss raised his middle finger.

That's exactly the attitude that makes the economy worse.
