A friend of mine is headed up tomorrow- not envious. We”lol be in the city but at least moving and then in theaters. Sitting still on metal bleachers in 10 degree weather sounds horrible. 

I've waited  3 years to get Hockey Tickets for a game my daughter didn't have a bears game at same time. I like hockey, but her and my girlfriend are both rabid fans. Its fun listening to them, a Caps fan arguing with a Pens fan

That hockey game in State College - good luck with that tomorrow. 

I'm glad we're going tonight. I read they are concerned with the ice and Temperature for outdoor rink. To cold. I think it'll be around 14 degrees at 1PM. anyone @WmsptWx know what the temp was for the playoff game last year?

They still managed 106,000 for the playoff game in similar conditions. They'll get a good crowd.

 

At this point, with how the wrestling program has teabagged the field, I think you could put the Resilite on the 50 on Saturday and get 100,000 people. 

 

Couldn't pay me to go inside to watch basketball.

I wouldn't have gone to that game either.  ive frozen my ass off there in November I've been to 3 outdoor classic games. but this one is going to be cold. I've tried to get hockey tickets for years. Its tough to find games where my daughter isn't working a Bears game. This year it panned out. We are going up for Fridays indoor game. 

regardless of what happens with this weekend storm, you couldn't effing pay me enough money to sit in the stands in happy valley to watch a hockey game, January 31st. F that

next event is for Sunday correct, February 1st?

Lock it in. I guess I will have to get the blower down and gass it up for the first time this year.

I was just complaining about not needing it so far, so maybe I will have to do that to bring the snow luck to my area from here on out.

Imagine all the crazy bastards sitting outside watching Hockey next Saturday in Happy valley.

Great memories from the Blizzard of 96 back when I was a freshman in college. That week of weather with the Blizzard dropping 2 feet near Harrisburg, the mid week over performing Clipper that brought a few inches, to the end of week significant coast that brought another foot to the Harrisburg area still stands as the greatest week of weather in my lifetime.

was the best birthday present ever

It's funny, I refer to myself (proudly) as the "Anti-HR guy" in HR because I spent nearly 25 years working in warehousing both here and at my previous job. I think that's allowed me to keep a good pulse/relationship with the people here that truly matter...the ones that get shit done. So many people in HR are clueless about what's really important to the blue collar folks because they never lived in that world. I did. My career changed after I was here, married, raising my family and THEN I decided to go back to school while doing all of that. My HR career only dates back to 2015. I think I strike the perfect balance of holding the line but also being a voice for the people. I honestly love what I do. 

sounds solid brother. Unfortunately its not always that way. New managers come in and wanna show their testicular fortitude. when they try and make guys look bad, I am always pleased to show them they're wrong. LOL last month i was called in about to get written up because i called a manager out. He was smiling until i dropped the company policy book on the table and said where is the section that says this is for hourly employees only? HR guy looked funny and said that book is for everyone  ended up back firing on the new manager and he got a verbal warning for breaking policy. The young fella's master degree didn't help him with that battle.

I'm for the people

Part of my job in regards to corrective actions is having 1X1 meetings with employees who violate what's essentially our code of conduct. It amazes (okay, saddens) me how many people in society today have lost the ability to treat others well. It isn't hard. If you don't have something nice to say, shut your mouth and walk the other way. I think the ability to hide behind a keyboard has emboldened people to say things they would have never said face to face prior to the internet/cell phone use. 

I'm glad i don't work for you, I'm an HR nightmare I don't do well with assholes. You know the ones, they have the "Dicktim" disease. where  they act like a dick. then act like a victim about it. And BTW i have an impeccable employment file, spotless .

Stephen...I am truly proud of you. Welcome to the "no heat" team. Although, it's time for a confession - 

I might have turned my heat on last night when I went to bed.  It was already down to 60 in the house and I was getting looks from my wife...

WHAT? Wait until i get home and tell my daughter the godfather crashed

you guys all lack Magnesium. Get on Magnesium Glycinate. 

Or have your cortisol checked.
