Rough Around the Edges

I haven't shaved in over a week. I know, I know, for most people, this would probably be like 4 days growth. Not for me. There's no particular reason for it. I actually do this when I'm off for extended periods of time. It a bit of a game, really. How long can I go before the itching drives me batty? I'm not quite there yet, but I'm getting close. It should be funny to see the reactions of my co-workers when we get back. They'll probably think, "Man, Jason's really taking this hard."

I still haven't heard anything about meetings or voting for the contract. What I have heard, however, is a very vocal opposition to this thing. There's always the very slight possibility this thing could get voted down. GM's contract was only approved by 66% of the majority, and they receivedfar more than we are getting. I did find out that we will be allowed to vote, and we will receive the $3000 signing bonus as well. This is a small consolation, but the bonus will help our savings for my inevitable release.
