I'm taking a few days off.

te51levin · 10-20-2007, 02:08 PM

Guys, first let me apologize for my slow response lately via email. We are still going through some pretty chaotic times at work due to a variety of factors, and email has to take a low priority when I have customers in front of me and the phone is ringing.

I'm also taking a few days off, which may add delays. I was able to take this coming Tuesday off to unwind from the stress. Even though I haven't gotten to all your emails yet, I really need to take a couple of says and just not mess with work. I also unexpectedly got today off, though it wasn't my choice - a customer's Rottweiler bit me yesterday (right on the face, even, which I thought was rather rude), so the doctors suggested I stay home Saturday and chill for a bit. I couldn't make up a story like this!

If there's something you need right away, by all means feel free to call instead of emailing. Tracy can take care of anything you need until I get back. Just be aware that we may have to keep the calls fairly short.

Thanks again for your patience.

Thanks for the heads-up

Holy crap! Why did the dog bite you?? Hope it didn't mess you up too badly.

Enjoy your time, Aaron. We'll miss you man!

Either he felt that I was threatening his property, or I smelled like lunch, or both. I didn't ask. But I think I'll heal up OK...

Holy crap! I must have skipped the part about you fighting Cujo. Gpod thing you never lost your eye. I loaded the scars on my face from a beer bottle with Vitamin E and they cleared up pretty good, it's worth a shot.

Sure hope that the customer is paying your medical bills.

Yeeeouch! This dog was actually at the dealership?

I hope the owner is covering your expenses.

te51levin · 10-21-2007, 01:38 PM

The dog was in the back seat of the customer's car (windows were down). The dumb thing is that the dog's owner and I had been petting him just a moment earlier. Worker's compensation is covering all the bills.

So let me make sure I understand canadam's advice. Load up with bottles of beer to get vitamins...got it! Good thinking!

canadam · 10-21-2007, 01:58 PM

Let me know if you want me to export some real beer

Weasy2k · 10-21-2007, 08:13 PM

Wow man thats pretty nasty!? Glad your going to be ok though!

Im with the whole beer and vitamins thing :P

Adam, I appreciate the offer! I'm apparently enjoying the World's Best Stout right now:

World's Best award according to Always on Tap|Obsidian Stout
I don't know if it's the world's best, but it always works for me. This is a relatively local brewery and part of a very fine range of beers. I'm sure the, uh, vitamin content is excellent!
