Just glad to be working again after being laidoff a month ago. Now if Krutchateau would just sell I'd be in great shape!

You've spent so much continuous time there over the years that I'm surprised they felt the need to pay you for your presence...

They'll be the better for an MA with extensive first-hand experience. Seems like a great fit. Congrats, and good luck. Hope it stays fun!

Aah, so buying all those cars was actually job training... Gee, you should have been able to deduct some of that.

Have fun!

I am very happy for you. This is a job that will totally suit you. Heck, you have owned enough of them. I am sure you will be of a lot of help to those looking to buy. Good luck!

... and thank you all for your kind comments - I'm absolutely thrilled to be there - for once I can use my OCD powers for good rather than evil.
