scottobearAh, goody good. Today's my appointment, and no weird commands to cancel have come through to me yet.
W-2s are due by 1/31/03, but my confidence isn't the best when it comes to HR and accounting working together. They dislike one another, so instead of them being professional about it, they just don't communicate... to the detriment of the company. I've had to maintain my own records just to be sure of everything, should one or both of them cause some sort of screw up. My opinion is that if they can't get along with one another, then either one or both should seek another means of employment.
On the good news side... A record number of manatees was found off the east coast of Florida this year, although state researchers downplayed the results. It does look like that they're going to be upgraded from endangered to threatened as a species.
Search teams found 1,695 manatees off the east coast last week, an 11 percent increase over the count in 2001, the best previous year. Statewide, they found 2,861 manatees, up from last year but down from the year before. State researchers said the counts vary widely from year to year, depending partly on weather and water visibility, rather than the health of the manatee population.
That's a good sign... I'll get some sea-cow piccies yet. Seriously, I think manatees are a very nifty animal to have in my neighborhood. My upcoming walks are going to be canal-side again. Now that it's dipping into the 60s at night, they'll be heading into the warmer water, which means closer to where I am. (The shallows, in the sun).
Newt's looking a little lean this morning... I guess it's because he's stretched, and not curled up.
