Go to e-suplexing.

The Sedin ladies are going to be punished by the brutalizing fists of Toews, Car Bomb, and Sexy Davey Bolland. At least give me this: If we had either of your goalies, we’d beat you 9 of 10 times.

Things are working their way backwards in creative services and development, actually

My own studio included. Face time is critical, especially if you’re paying salary and have more than 40 hours of weekly work for an individual.

I do Technical Support, they got us doing 2 days a week from home currently. Saves me from my hour long commute.

Little things like working from home do a lot for moral. Management realizes this

I would like to apply for this job, but because of college I have a absolute hatred for programming now. I don’t know how any one can do that sort of thing day in and day out.

Sheeeeeeeee-it

Man, I wish this was the case. I have all of the skills that this job requires, but my job at home pays way too good. Still have to trek to work though, sucks.
