Phandaal Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 I know it's off topic. But, I was wondering how many people are taking vacation time next week? I'm take next week off and hopefully will get CM on Monday or Tuesday and get all week to enjoy. out Phandaal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Beman Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 I have to go to the DMV Monday morning, so I've already notified the office I'll be late. Hopefully, now that I have my birth certificate and a copy of the title to my car, I can be done there in only 2 hours (yes, it's that bad here in NJ) I'll swing by the house afterward, maybe watch a little TV and make sure I've not left anything there. And, if the mailperson has arrived early and left me a package, I'll spend an hour fooling around and blame the DMV. DjB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckinDixie Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 I'm going off duty at 0730 Monday and dont go back 'til 1430 Friday. I just hope it gets here Monday or Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carentan Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 I'm a full-time daytrader, so I assure you all that the arrival of CM is going to take precedence over pushing tech stocks around. I'll curl up with that manual for quite a while, too. Just finished reading Balkoski's fine book this a.m. so the timing will be perfect.

Jarmo Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 I have a couple of weeks off now. As I live in finland, I expect to get the game about the time I have to go back to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooter Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 Well, I worked like a dog last week in order to be able to take two days off this week to enjoy CM. My credit card's been charged and I'm expecting a little bundle of joy in my mailbox tomorrow. Tuesday and Wednesday are MINE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott C Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 I basically set my own schedule, so I can just take time off as I please. I also spend a good deal of time sitting over a computer numbercrunching (and getting paid for doing so) so I can even be playing CM on the job! ------------------ Questions, comments, arguments, refutations, criticisms, and/or sea stories?

Walter Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 What's a 'vacation'? I last had a day off about 3 years ago Ah, the life of a biology grad student. Cheers, Walter R. Strapps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterk Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 Vacations are just too short. I strongly recommend quitting work completely to get the most out of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I do not have a new job to interfere with CM yet (though I should probably try to find one). Anyway, since I'm on the east side of the Atlantic I may have to wait a few more days before playing the full game. Hey, was that the mailman!? No, just wishful thinking ...

Schugger Posted June 19, 2000 Share Posted June 19, 2000 No vacation for me. I tried a workaround that proved to be successful to some degree: A small accident at work "bought" me two days off. Talk about bad timing, it will take some days before my cheque arrives at BTS and probably even weeks before it is verified and my game starts to ship. Will I be the last one on this forum who recieves his copy? Why is the morning program on german TV so cruel ( currently on air in a Talkshow " My guinea-pig is depressed"? Will anyone play the GD scenarios with me while i wait for my Copy? Who was Luke Skywalkers mother? Questions over questions. What a monday to start the week!

pcelt Posted June 19, 2000 Share Posted June 19, 2000 You guys have all got second class ideas-----I'd highly recommend my tactic. I've taken very early retirement,a golden (or at least copper handshake),a free internet provider and a pension large enough to just keep upgrading my computer . Who really needs food and clothes-----just the necessities of life-- a working computer and non-stop CM. Try it men,you'll never regret it. Moreover one of these years I also aim to win a damned scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
