This is my standard response, when ever anyone asks; How's it Going? I like to keep a positive attitude, and trying to make every day the best day ever is my goal...

?ÿ

I signed the paper work on my office today! I've been renting space from another surveyor for the last few years; he's retiring so I made him an offer he couldn't refuse! Well, I suppose he could've; he actually told me what he wanted and agreed...

Anyway, it's a done deal! All he had to do was hand me the keys! He was able to keep some personal stuff; pictures, computers, he had about 15 stuffed deer heads and antlers hanging around his office; but everything else is mine! Even a Chevy Suburban 2500!

So I guess you could say I'm pretty happy! I may have even done the happy dance!

?ÿ

I hope everyone has a great day! I know I will!

Dougie

Congrats Dougie!

My best day was when I realized that I DIDN'T have to work anymore (at least not full time), and could just do the "interesting" stuff (when I feel like it).

Someone in my office this Monday morning walked in with grumpy pants on. When my other coworker asked me what happened, my response was "I am not sure about him, but I've been having a great morning since I woke at 5!"

It is so much more pleasant to be an optimist.?ÿ

Congrats on your 'best day ever', I hope that you have many more in the future. (Maybe even tomorrow!).

Dougie,

Everyone has to start somewhere. I am sure with your determination and a little luck you will be able to sell that Chevy and buy a truck real soon.. ????

seriously. Congratulations! It's a great time to start and I wish you the best.

Take care, Tom

When someone asks, "How are you doing?"?ÿ Simply say, "Without." and wait for their reaction.?ÿ Someone who is own his toes will come back with something like, "Sounds like a personal problem to me."

@holy-cow

It might still be the case, but a few years ago the standard site greeting down this way, was: "How's it hanging", which simply meant nothing more than a less formal way of asking "How are you doing".?ÿ

@richard-imrie

I am familiar with that greeting and have heard some rather shocking replies that fall into the "too much information" category.

@holy-cow

Indeed. Thinking about it a bit more, the phrase is/was probably "How they hanging, Bro", and the thinking man's response was a reference to the anatomy of Michael Angelo's David

Thanks everyone! I still can't stop grinning!

I would think "Down Under" things hang pretty loose; especially this time of year; during the warm months... ;~)
