Day 162: Team


Fragment: They're more than your managers; they're your big sisters
Font: Futura
Quoted: Christie Lau

Reason #42 Why I love my job.
Times I don't like my job: when I hear about how my body will fall apart at age 30, then more at 40.
Or maybe that's a big sister thing.

Day 135: Sounds Good


Fragment: Making contributions already
Font: Avenir
Quoted: Cory Gaines

Cory, my super manager, made this comment after hearing I had already finished an xls spread. Granted it wasn't very hard work, but I cranked it out at surprising speed. I guess I would say I love my job, cause it's good to know I'm getting things done.

Day 128: Vocabulary


Fragment: They can SWAG it.
Font: Gotham
Quoted: Jennifer Tran

I was sitting in on a meeting, and nearly laughed. In cool kid lingo, swag is the way you carry yourself. If you have swagger (swagga') you have a confidence.
*According to urban dictionary: confidence, style, and demeanor. Swag can also be expanded to be the reputation of your overall swagger. You gain swag, or "Swag up", by performing swag worthy actions that improve this perception. A person can also "swag down," by being an overall pussy and garnering negative swag for their actions. Swag is a subtle thing that many strive to gain but few actually attain. It is reserved for the most swagalicious of people. Swag can also be quantified, with point systems existing in some circles of friends.
But in PayPal Lingo, it's a "Silly Wild Ass Guess." Basically an estimate, but no one actually knows, so it's just  a silly wild-ass guess
