What the crap? McDonald's here is now paying workers (not managers, just entry level workers) $14.40/hr here. Dang I've had many IT job offers that wanted to pay less than that. They got their raises today apparently to give them more "momentum".
That's the same as Texas. The "entry point" for low end gas station cashier is $11/hour in Dallas (which is one of the cheapest places to live in the US) and "entry point" for high end gas stations like Buckey's is $12/hr - and those jobs are often in rural areas that are far cheaper than Dallas!!

Just found out the job I applied to is bringing someone internal into the role.
That happens SO often. So often the request for interviews is just a political maneuver.

I'm in Madrid adjusting to the office here. Very quiet. Love this city, but it is no Sevilla.

This came up while finding today's news articles:

It is gorgeous here today in Madrid. The sun is out and the temperature is nice. I'm enjoying my espresso, too.

Are they from Wales? Or just that's just the starting point?

They are from Texas. But they've been addicted to fish and chips and hanging out where they can eat it every day for the past month.

My dad @SonshineAcres just sent me this picture of his place right now...

That's very near the NTG offices. So @Minion-Queen @art_of_shred @jenuinecase @Mike-Ralston are all in that same snow.

@dominica made me go to Gibraltar for some over the weekend!

Heading to an "all team" lunch here in Madrid.

Found a few things which I need to return to their owner. It wouldn't be right to keep them, so at some point today I may take them back to the office.
I have to remind myself what day it is, seems like the week has flown past... We are finally in a window of having no rain,.. but we are expected to have another night of frost.... nothing like what Upstate NY is having. Sorry @Minion-Queen, @jenuinecase and all.. I know you are getting snow... but it'll pass..
-
CheezIts for breakfast and sorted through my change bank and found I have $5.30 in change left!
-
So much to think about. Making plans for a Super Secret (for now) Mango Lassi day in May. Making lots of cool decisions for NTG and ML. This week has been an awesome week....
In other news we woke up to 2" of snow today. I am not happy. It was almost 80 in S.C. on Tuesday when I left!

Back to work after a day off yesterday, I took a me day. And I'm so glad I did. Yesterday was so wonderful from start to finish! I better have enjoyed it because it's not gonna happen again for a LONG time. Just found out this morning that my co-worker starting on Tues is off indefinitely! She's having shoulder surgery, so now the brunt of the workload lands on me and all my other things I MUST keep on top of.
Oh why did I come back
