Purple SSR

Today when I went to pick up my wife for lunch, I saw a in the parking lot.
I was shock...never thought I see one at work.

Now the building that my wife works at holds hundreds of employees so their was no way I could find out who the owner is so I told Ellen she has an assignment after lunch. Find The Owner!!!

Well... She just emailed me and told me the person who owns it is somebody that I use to work with back in the early 90's and she just brought it for $26K.

That ex co-worker has already done home for the day but I sure will be in her office next Monday.

It not a signature series. I've already emailed her (her name is Debbie) so hope she comes in Monday as I do know she going to retire real soon.

Glad to see that sense of humour is still intact, what with that birthday soon approaching

Talking

I told my Boss I was going to "Retire".. He almost had a heart attack.

But, I said "I can't decide on Goodyear or Firestone". He almost killed me!!

I am part of the 65/75% but I am still working.

Does that make me "Half ass retired or just half ass".

DON'T ANSWER THAT!!

Here the story from Debbie about her purple SSR

She has been out sick with dental problems and ended up with a infection set into her jaw. On top of that, she became allergic to the antibiotics. Took weeks to get rid of the pain. Since she was in to much pain, she couldn't go shopping for her husband's birthday, told him to go ahead and pick out the car he wanted for retirement since he hopes to retire in two years. She was pretty shocked when he found this at Paradise Chevrolet, especially in purple.

I’ve provided Debbie with the SSRFanatic web address so I hope she and her husband will look us up and join in on the fun we have.

I'll take my SSR to work this Friday and park next to her's and get a picture.

Buy on the last day of the month when sales people need that last sale for their bonus. Talked mine down because 2 sales people each needed " a half a car sale" for their monthly bonus (10 sales for the month). What commission they lost out on with my sale they more than made up on with the big monthly bonus they made.

Last day of the month, I say.

Does that make me one of the youngest members here? ::ducks::

Oh wait, I need to find a job here in my new state! So I can pretend to be retired while I look for a job here in MD.

I ended up flying because they couldn't get the new windshield in right. Took them 3 attempts. It threw off my schedule, so I flew, and am still waiting for my to be delivered by transport. It was promised to me By Sept 6th.
