Hey folks…
As I’ve mentioned (many times) in the past I’m in the process of closing down my business and changing careers into contracting (God help me). We have tons of stuff that’s going to go for nothing rather than being heaved into the trash. Eg: file cabinets, office cubicles, chairs, some shelving, misc office stuff even a very nice sofa and loveseat (although it needs a reallllll good cleaning). I’m in CT and on the second floor so be prepared to bring a helper. Email me if you need any of the above and I’ll try to “hook you up”.

Jeff,
I've seen a lot of your messages on here lately and, if you're not a comedian by night you missed your calling.
That's a compliment BTW.
Just doing my job .....
got on stage once ... college bar we hung out at after me and my buddy both failed out .... we were heckling the comedian ... he really did suck ... and he fired back.... U think yer so funny try coming uo and doing it!
So I did .... little did he know I had about 15 min of material I used on a fairly regular basis to pick up chicks ... did pretty well ... good enough to piss him off.
Helped that the crowd was a bar fulla drunk college kids.
I used to play band manager for a coupla buddies around the same time and used to introduce them on stage ... always f'd with the heavy metal crowds for a coupa minutes before I brought them out .... that was a blast too ....
U gotta get yourself to a Fest or two .... there's some real comedy going on there ...
Some really really funny dudes hang around here .... funniest by far ... Vince Carbone ... 'cept he can't talk without using his hands so he's limited on the keyboard .... but ... a "must see" live act!

Making the great cubicle escape?
Unless you're the lead dog, the view just never changes.
Excellent idea Jeff... I think on my jobsite boombox I'll make a CD of phones ringing off the wall with the sound of clients tormenting me over 5 dollar items on their order... ;)
Top 10 list for Cube-life:
10. Being told to "think outside the box" when you're in a freakin box all day long.
9. Not being able to check e-mail attachments without turning around to see who's behind you.
8. Cubicle walls do not offer much protection from any kind of gun fire.
7. That nagging feeling that if you press the right button, you'll get a piece of cheese.
6. Lack of roof rafters for the noose.
5. The walls are too close together for the hammock to work right.
4. 23 power cords - 1 outlet.
3. Prison cells are not only bigger, they also have beds.
2. The carpet has been there since 1976 and shows more signs of life than your coworkers.
And the number 1 drawback to working in a cubicle....
1. You can't walk out and slam the door when you quit.
