Packer fans costing companies to much money!

[LL2]

Anyone see the article over at JSO on how if every employee in the state of Wis spends 1 hour of work time talking about the Packers it cost all the employers around $40 million in wasted time. I bet all the Packerrats combined waste that much in employer work time. I know I'm guilty of it.

hey...i can barely get the guys out of the shop, in the mornings to do their calls, for the same reasons. people are still whinning and bitching about the 'boys. the sports-radio talk is still all 'boys. i'm sure it's the same in all the play-off team cities. hell...i'm guilty myself. i'm logged on here at least a couple of hours during the day.

Well actually, that is just WI. What if they added up all 50 states?

Campbell - Are you gonna pull a "jwalk" and complain about not being the best poster on this forum?

No...I need to get my pay to be retroactive to the date I joined! Where's mad's payroll e-mail address? He's hoarding all the cash and not sharing it with the rest of the Rat's that make this place so popular.

Are we paid by the post?

Yeah, but he's sexist and the guys are getting roughly 3x what you get.

this is an old joke that never fails to get no laughs, but I can't help thinking of the old Bob Dylan song, "Maggie's Farm"

I ain't gonna work on Madtown's farm no more
I ain't gonna work on Madtown's farm no more
He hands you a nickle, he hands you a dime
He asks you with a grin if you're having a good time
It's a shame the way he makes me scrub the floor
I ain't gonna work on MAdtown's farm no more


I get the sense that making a Bob Dylan reference has become like my dad refering to a lyric from the Mills Brothers.
