1) Go to Google.com
2) Search for "World Cup"
3) Scroll to the bottom

I wish my own company was that clever sometimes.

Wait, why are corporations expected to give out handouts? Aren't our low prices enough of a gift to the world?

Does that include sick/personal days? Cause, brother, it sounds like you sold cheap.

A few sick days make all the difference, soul-wise. I swear

as a 13 year veteran Alex gets 5 weeks of vacation, plus 2 floating holidays, plus 10 sick days, plus 8 holidays.

I gave all that up when I left, but I now have a job where no one really knows where I am, or what I'm supposed to be doing. trade-offs.

I have 90 sick days, that's weird... right? I'm pretty sure they'd fire me if I used all of them without good reason.

Your job is a beautiful mystery to me still. Someday you're gonna have to tell me how it all works. And if you need an Amsterdam-based assistant.

You have infected stitches... sounds like a good reason to take a 90 day break to me!

Do they all hold hands and sing after words? Nobody wins and nobody loses.

Soccer is just like little-league t-ball.

Do we get capri suns and orange slices?! I'm in! I'll bring some vodka to mix with the snack selection.
