[QUOTE]Originally posted by zephyr: [QB] Posted by Mr. Chuckey: "I don't do business trips. Whenever I travel, it's for pleasure." Thanks for clearing that up. I took your original post to mean you did a lot of long distance business travel by train. And it seemed to me your boss was overly eager to have you hit the rails. That reminded my of my prior life working for a Federal agency. A common trick of some supervisors (not me) to get a problem employee (aka deadwood you couldn't fire) out of your hair was to send them on a lot of "business trips." You know, attending those critical week-long meetings on how to fill out a new form. Using Amtrak would have been a creative enhancement to this gambit. Quote Mr Chucky: "A train trip is one of the very few times in my life when I really have a chance to reflect and think about the meaning of life." Wow, is that a "Zen" thing? Does the thinking go better with Bud or Merlot? (I'm looking for an alternative to Pale Ale since they don't seem to stock it anymore). Is there a book in the works, like "Zen and the Art of Amschlepping"? [/QB][/QUOTE]
