GF just sent me this email... their office has a truly stupid way of doing an office wide lottery pool...
Hi everybody, we’re doing an office lottery pool for the Mega Millions tomorrow night. It’s over $500 million right now. If you’re interested (strictly volunteer) please stop by a store in the area you live and pick up 3 tickets and bring them in tomorrow. We’re doing 3 tickets @ $2 each=$6
Once I gather all the tickets. I’ll make copies for everyone with a list of participates. If you place a ticket on my desk please make sure it has your name on the back of it, so there’s no confusion.
I know I may have missed some people on my email, so please forgive me and tell your neighbor. It’s for anybody that would like to play. Thanks
So let me get this straight.... I go buy the tickets, remand them to the office, and then I have to split my winnings with everyone? Our office will sometimes (maybe twice a year) take up a collection of about $2 each, and the only reason I buy into that is because I like the fact that the bosses say that if we hit the big prize, nobody has to work Monday (because the company will be no more).

@rojoloco My company does it the same way your company does. One person collects the money and goes a buys tickets. Your GF company's way is just dumb.

Yeah... her company's ways are pretty terrible across the board. And they are a major bank... with a corporate culture of "hey, incompetence is OK as long as we like you!".
On a side note: Never get a mortgage through BB&T.

That is good to remember.

Why would anybody go to the kwikemart, buy lottery tickets with their own money, then put them in the company Mega Millions pool?

It's probably because they just now thought to buy a ticket.

Because they are amongst the incompetent morons that process mortgage loans that can't be bothered to do their jobs correctly, much less play the lottery correctly.

In either case, a ticket needs to be purchased by someone. Be it with a collected pool of money or with 100 tickets individually brought in.
This doesn't seem that odd. Just piss poorly planned.

Corporate minions are rarely bright.

Just got a call for a site down, when I called back site was up, Everything was working. Must have been an windows update or something.. Looking into the issue one of the "terminals" had lost connection and caused the other 2 to go down. After the site did its fail safe (restart) everything was working properly.

Finally in Chicago. Took the L from midday to the loop (downtown). Walked across part of downtown to Union Station. Now on the Metra to Schaumburg for 30 more minutes.

Concert done. Now for change window tasks. Yay for being on-call /sigh

Why is creating an offline account for Windows 10 so slow? Not only does it have way too many steps, three screens for something so simple it should be in one, but each screen takes strangely long to load - as if they are being loaded from a slow, remote web server. It's weird.
