AUSTIN: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - 11:00 (Billy's on Burnet)

Re: Thursday North Austin Lunch M&G

It was just me and Dave. We commiserated about jobs.

Re: Thursday North Austin Lunch M&G

OK, I've been viewing this thread awhile, How in the heck do I know where the next lunch meet is going to be? Seems to be lots of messages of 'I'll be there" or "not" but where is the destination posted???
 
Re: Thursday North Austin Lunch M&G

Same place every time. Billy's Hamburgers on Hancock drive. Actually the corner of Hancock and Burnett.
 
Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

Since we seem to have settled on a time and location, I added it to the title of the thread.
 
Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

funny, I was just PMing with someone saying I should add the location to the title. Thanks.

This is Billys on Burnet.

There was a movement to relocate to the Hula Hut on Lake Austin, due to The Hut location it makes it even more difficult to get there, eat and return to work with in a reasonable lunch hour. The relocation to Taco Cabana at Mopac and Palmer Lane failed as foreign national owns the chain (New York based company:mrgreen:) If anyone finds a local eatery that has bike admiring seating with good access, speak up. Good food at a reasonable price is a plus.

I now have three standing meetings on Thursdays... One which happens to fall at 12:30 out time. Unless I get a last minute notice that it is cancelled, I won't be able to say one way or the other if I'll be there.

Don't think I'll be there this week. I have a noon exit interview :eek2: Schedule clears up for a while after that.

Keep your chin up and head high. You've got friends here if you need us....

Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

I had planned on popping in unannounced to lunch this week. Now I have about 6 different things I need to do tomorrow. Crap. :(
 
Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

Well, ya gotta eat! If my meeting ends on time, I'll be there.
 
Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

Well, I may swing by around 12:30. My exit interview is noon and I don't plan on talking much. If there is anybody still there, then great. Otherwise I'll catch you all next week or at the pie run.
 
Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

I'm heading that way in about 5 minutes.....:rider::eat::rider:
 
Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

i missed it, had the work fantasy football draft going on.
 
Re: Thursday Austin Lunch M&G - Billy's - 11:30

My meeting ran until 1:30.

So.... how do exit interviews go? :giveup:

Them: So, Mr. Woodbutcher, why are you leaving us?

Woodbutcher: You quit sending paychecks to my bank account.


We have them too, but I've never heard of anything useful gained from them.

Rusty-
We (Mic/Todd and I) waited around until 1:15 for you then decided you wouldn't make it so we departed. Good little turnout today with five of us and half the Austin Fire Department on the patio sucking down pitchers. Must have been their day off. :trust:

How do you think they put those small fires out? Need a little something to refill the tank. :lol2:

BTW, did I mention I hate Thursdays? I have 3 standing meetings, and almost always one or two that pop up. My afternoon basically is going from one meeting to another.

I certainly hope so. I'm working today so I was not one of them. ;-)

Mostly he had to go down a checklist to make sure he collected everything from me. Laptops, badge, AmEx card, account names and passwords. He's only been my manager since the begining of the year so there wasn't much too it. We got a long fine, he just is in the bad position of continuously letting people go. Being the nice guy I am I didn't make it hard for him. Then he handed me a couple of checks (one big one) and hung up the phone (telecon). Then the guy whose office we where using escorted me out.

I didn't finish until close to 1pm and I had a doctor's appt. in Cedar Park at 2pm. So I went ahead and worked my way north. Still not sure if I'm sad or pissed off. Sometimes I swing between them rapidly. I hope we are almost out of scotch and tequila.

Uhh.... don't go there today. You'll feel worse tomorrow and be mad at yourself. Just look at it as a clean slate and what do YOU want to do next. Makes it easier to focus that way. It gets easier with time.
