Anung Un Rama Posted September 21, 2012 #4477 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Good Morning everyone. Great news over here. I got the promotion and a nice hefty pay raise at that. I'm now management level, but the best part is not having to manage people. My role doesn't really change at all. I get to do what I love, and getting the recognition for working my ass off these last 8 years has finally paid off. It's gonna be weird though because my boss is the same level as I am. It will be an interesting dynamic for sure. I can't believe that the cruise is finally going to be here in 2 months. This time in 2 months I will be getting ready for the loooooooooooooong drive to Miami and meeting fellow breezers for our "amuse bouche" for the 2 day appetizer on the Breeze. It's getting real now. After all this time, booking over a year ago. So excited. CONGRATS AL!!!! That's some pretty awesome news. Good luck to all who have to deal with the whole Crucon thing. I hope it all gets sorted out without much trouble as I know many in this thread booked that way. Summer is giving us a couple more days here, 80 today and 85 tomorrow. But nice and cool 70 on Sunday. We should probably take advantage and get some yard work done.........yeah right :p And we always split the WCMC. It's usually too much for one of us after a big meal in the MDH. 61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizzaeater Posted September 21, 2012 #4478 Share Posted September 21, 2012 61 Days 'til we cruise on the Breeze, 61 Days 'til we cruise! After this Day has happened to pass, 60 0ays 'til we cruise on the Breeze!:D Congrats to you, Al! And look in your mirror on your way to Miami. I'll be driving from St Petersburg to POM Thanksgiving Morning for the B2Bs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raytownlady Posted September 21, 2012 #4479 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Yep our flight officially comes in at 10:55 - so right around the same time - I have a feeling we will probably share the same shuttle if we both book with SAS, but there isn't a $$ discount if we all book together ($15 pp for 1-4 people)... plus with the uncertainty of flights and it being a holiday, probably best if we both book separate - we did purchase vacation ins for the 2 day from Carnival just in case something happens since we are flying in the day of. Think I'm gonna book them on Monday just to get it out of the way... so weird I thought I already did it, but I guess not! I think we had just talked about it on here a few months ago and that's what I was remembering :o Our flight arrives (fingers crossed) at 11:10 and we're also booked with SAS for our transportation to the port. We have used them several times and have always been pleased with their service. Like you I'm a little nervous about travelling over the holiday but I think flying on Thursday will be far easier than tackling the mobs that will be flying on Wednsday. We thought about booking ground transfers through Carnival but just could not justify the cost of $30 per person. I think that as long as we all arrive on time and have no problems with our luggage, we should be onboard the ship and enjoying drinks by 1:00. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ready2cruzagain Posted September 21, 2012 #4481 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Well I called Crucon and talked to Kathryn. She was able to take care of what I needed. Told me if I needed anything just call and anyone in customer service could help. That is a relief to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vivavegas Posted September 21, 2012 #4484 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Haluski 2 or 3 cups wide egg noodles (I like more cabbage and less noodles) 1/2 cup butter ( or more I use 2 sticks) 1/2 cup onions diced 6 cups cabbage, sliced ( I use a large head) 2 tsp garlic minced (more or less) salt and pepper to taste ( I like a little extra salt on this recipe) Directions: Cook egg noodles according to package directions leaving al dente, then drizzle with a bit of oil to prevent the noodles from sticking together and set aside. While noodles are cooking, melt butter in large deep skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion, cabbage, garlic to skillet, stirring well to incorporate. Cover, reduce heat to low, and let simmer for about 15 minutes or until cabbage has wilted and tasty. (This will depend on how old your cabbage is. Older cabbage is drier so tends to take longer to wilt) Turn heat back to medium, add cooked noodles, salt and pepper, and stir well until noodles are heated though. Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve hot. This is pretty much the recipe I use but I don't necessarily measure out the ingredients. Hi Ready! I don't believe I've ever had anything like this, but I love cabbage, noodles and butter:) so it's something I'll have to try! Thanks for the recipe.

pomm1972 Posted September 22, 2012 #4500 Share Posted September 22, 2012 WOOOOOHOO!!!! Well deserved, it's a tough industry we are in...way to go pommee!!!:cool::) You said that right. I've been getting my ass chewed out a lot by my claimant's lately too. I hope this economy gets better soon because the crazy train is off its track these days. Some of the stuff I've experienced lately ... I'm gonna picket outside my agent's office in my lab coat, stethoscope and my big glasses and hold a sign with snoopy kicking me. And my son is going to drive me because one arm is in a cast and the other is in a sling and I can't see because I'm blind. ... Says the woman with 20/20 vision. You better got off the stick. You sure you want to do that in Arkansas? ... said the attorney who thought we were going to deny his client's claim. I can't talk to you anymore, I need money now, my job is making me work too many hours, I can't put food on the table. ... says the doctor who makes 350K a year. My fathers an accountant and he told me what my loss of income was in an hour. ... to the guys that sent nothing to us to make that determination. Does that mean you are going to take my policy away? ... says the guys who goes on claim 12 days after issue of the policy. Folks I am not making this up, this all happened in the last couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
