Where does Eileen work?

IHOP.

You rock!

Haha, I remember that 500-mile email story. Classic!

I recently placed an order with Dell, but kept getting messages that they couldn’t process it. After spending five hours on the phone with multiple customer support people, they finally told me it was because my billing address was different than my shipping address, and that I wasn’t allowed to do that.

What’s also scary is how irresponsible people are being with this technology.

I had someone tell me they routinely take naps on their drive into work using lane assist and adaptive cruise control! I started laughing but they didn’t laugh back…

Navy recently raised their enlistment age cap to 42. They’re currently the only service to do so, that I know of.

Edit: As far as I know, the enlistment age cap for most other services is 39, and the officer candidacy age cap is 35. There’s variations and waivers though, depending on your situation.

Excellent username.

Various reasons. Mainly the benefits. Tricare health insurance for the family. Post-9/11 GI Bill for the kid. Having a security clearance will also open up some IT job opportunities for me.

Turned 41 this year. I was a moderately successful website developer and high school computer science teacher. Next month I’m joining the navy. Should be fun.
