Glad to see your back online and that you are enjoying your worklife, something that you wont see verbalized by chronic complainers like me any time soon wink .
About details though, 9.5 hours a day, does this mean your on a salary?
Or is this some minimum amount that you are guaranteed by showing up(and from the sounds of how much buisiness you are doing are more then guarantreed those hours!)?

Dont work your love to hard though eh!
communistcanuck:
ummmm now not to burden you with economic theory, you say profit sharing I dont know what you specifically mean because technically as being in retail your very wage is a profit share of what the capitalist decides give you for distributing his product (not to mention using the salary format to make sure your labour time does consume all the profits) , the commision is the incentive to increase volumes of sales.
So I guess I am asking is their anything specific attached to this profit sharing that might modulate how much money you receive form it (like it being actually shares in a company, thus on the stock market as well).

Hey dont blame me, you mentioned the P word to a communist.........

LOL that was hilarious, though as an ironic comment it was no doubt the original war of the worlds broadcast that encourages proponents of Intelligent desighn when they start to lose the wind in their bag.....

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Firefly franchise death greatly exaggerated.
Joss Whedon has spoken out against the Entertainment Weekly that claimed he has turned his back on the Firefly/Serenity franchise. From his post at Whedonesque:

'All right, now I have to jump in and set the record straight. EW is a fine rag, but they do take things out of context. Obviously when I said I had "closure", what I...

yeah. I have no idea.
I had a similar letter once. And then many times again. Then I filed for this "I don't make enough" thing and they took away almost all of what I owed. It was nice. I'm sure I'm going to have a letter like that waiting for me when I get back to Calgary though. Since I forgot to tell them I was leaving the province and that I'm a student now.

hahaha
oh yeaaah! That was funny.

I was up late, past 4 am playing WOW and then Poker, until I lost 2 back to back hands in No limit Hold'em; the last I lost $50 with 2 pair losing to four of a kind. I hate losing to quads when pocket pairs are involved! I played for 3 hours with $20 that went up to $100 then down to $0, so...
