Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Stigy, have thoughts on a location yet? Don't know if you're from NY or not, but I can't imagine a better spot than somewhere upstate NY in the fall being better for a wedding. :)

There are some places by us in Northern NJ that get absolutely beautiful during the fall. This place we pass all the time and its gorgeous but I think it may be very pricey.

Stigy, I was actually in the Bronx for a wedding a few weeks ago, at a place called Marina del Rey. I don't know anything about it price-wise, but it was a great location. Great view out over the water, good food and service, gorgeous building, etc etc.
 
Afternoon everyone.

Does anyone know of a Christmas List app that can be shared across users? The wife and I would like to create an electronic christmas list and sync it between the 2 of us. That way we always know what is needed to be bought.

Looked at quite a few, but it looks like most were created to be on one persons phone only.

I read that "Out of Milk" app can be set up this way, but I didn't see a tutorial or anything on how to do it. What is nice, with the christmas list ones I did look at, were the ability to set budgets for each person, a group, etc...

Thanks everyone...

Cozi should allow this, just a basic list. You can also access it via the web.

Make Holiday Shopping Simple with Our Gift-Planning Checklist
 
Had to take our little critter to the vet today, that sure was expensive. You always feel compelled to nurse your pets back to normal, but the bill shock is never easy to deal with.
 
My puppy is happy to pick up a few chores to earn his keep. Stripping paint off of perfectly good doors, breaking in shoes with their teeth, and "scooping" the cat litter, are all ways he repays me for paying his vet bill... :rolleyes:

You can check out Olde Mill Inn too (I have to look at where it is, I forget). My best friend did an early fall wedding there last year - outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour, reception inside. Just a thought for ya. :D
 
Good morning everyone - not sure when we discuss bonuses or what not for the year, fingers crossed on that one. would be a real nice way to end the year.

Trying to decide if I want to come into the office on Friday since the markets are only open for a half-day (until 1PM). Hoping by the time I decide someone just tells me to work from home instead.
 
Yeah we don't get bonuses for the year until February next year. ALthough we have a health incentive program with drawings where you can win up to $5000, and the winners are announced next week. I won $250 last year. Plus we have an appreciation lunch for engineers, where they give away some nice door prizes. Of course, 4 years of that, I have yet to win one thing :p.

Put 4.2 on my Nexus this morning, (Jelly Belly). Not bad, I figured I would see if there was something on it that would convince me I need to stick with the GNex... I am so torn on whether or not to pick up the DNA tomorrow. I love my Nexus, but the DNA just calls to me. I am going to go to the store and check it out, but probably will be a gametime decision.

Our potential bonuses are set in stone at the beginning of the year. We can potentially get 5% of our salary but in order to get that, the company as a whole and our site has to do well and meet our performance metrics. If we don't, we get percentage points knocked off. This year the company found a way to do well even with reduced sales and revenue. The site had a really good year as well.

Maybe they will find a little extra cash layin around for you guys Stig ;) I'll most likely be working all week, including Saturday. Hope everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving days off!

Haha, yeah, we have the same deal, except its a fixed amount, not percentage. So it's a much bigger deal for the techs than for the engineers.
 
We don't get bonuses unless our shop goes the most hours without a reportable and non reportable injury. You can however join Virgin Health Miles and make up to $500 per year depending on how much you walk.
 
Our bonuses are also delivered in February, but are dependent on our reviews. Still not sure how that's going to go, since our department is being transferred the current supervisor is being kept on through February to complete the reviews... But was not given a job at the other end, so he is being laid off as soon as the reviews are done. Oh and my wife and I are the only ones who are staying with the company so he can make it nice for us... And we get a bonus.... or make it hard since he can review us anyway he wants... And there are potentially 3 other people who, if they stay on the job through the end of December would also qualify for a bonus.. Even though their last day would be December 28. So I am sure we all 5 split the department budget for bonus....
The other part of our transfer is that we would normally get a raise, usually about $2-$3/hr after review time, but since the wife and I are transferring our pay rates to Austin, we will already be making more than the new folks, and apparently we won't qualify for the raise... So we are Hoping for a decent bonus this year!
Raise aside... November, this year, is the month we make 3 paychecks, which is always nice right before the holidays.

Hope everyone's week is going well!
