I lived there in the 80s and 90s, and I could not see how it could ever had gotten worse.
Thanks for showing me. 400 south?
Loved Atlanta, hated the traffic. Personal opinion, only DC and California has it beat.

Suffering through my least favorite meeting of the month.  I will spend an hour and a half here and get nothing productive out of it.

I primarily deal with contractors and folks in our regional offices, so most of my day is conference calls.  This was the longest and least productive meeting that I actually have to attend in person and appear to be paying attention and engaged with the subject of the meeting.

At least you aren't tailgating like others on here apparently do.

Digging around the fridge looking for the leftovers of this chili...it would appear I got here too late.

Haggling with car dealers on pricing. The st Louis dealer just **** in their own hat, very unprofessional.

What drives me nuts is people that stop at a traffic light with 3 car lengths of space between them and the car in front of them.  That causes traffic to move through the light slowly, and nobody got time for that.

Contact @fishlessman.  He can help you with the negotiations!

They wouldn't give me some basic financing details without a deposit on the car. Go fly a kite.

We bought an Audi Q5 through the Costco auto buying program.  It was easy and pleasant, saved about 4k.  Not all car companies participate, however.

I would call in a complaint to the corporate office.  And the bad review is always good feedback for the dealership.  Make sure you work in the word "scum".

Helped with the seniors of our town Christmas party.  Even though we had it catered it was still a looooong day.  We fed and partied with about 150 people.  It was a great day and a great crew to work with!

I usually get up and take a leak about that time. Then back to bed for another 2 1/2 hours top off.

Cleaning the house in order to host the family Christmas this weekend and “finger snacking” for dinner in order to not dirty too much stuff up... a $2.42 pack of farm fresh chicken legs (tiny and hormone free) made into General Tsao drummies, leftover spinach and artichoke dip with ritz, and a sliced honey crisp apple with a cup of caramel that was still good according to the print on the side.  “Sometimes simpler is better”.  Heard that said once or twice.  Good stuff.

This, don’t know what brand you are set on costco is running employee pricing on Chevy (and you can get $300-700 depending on your Costco account type back in a Costco card), they limit the dealer doc fees to I believe 299.  I went this route last year when buying our Silverado, super easy and got a great deal with low stress.

Found the car I want in Chicago, local dealer wouldn't touch the price. Negotiated $5400 under msrp on it without much hassle. Pretty pleased. 

Sucks though I have to fly to Chicago on new years eve to get it.
