Is it the peasant hot dog/nacho stand or can you get something that’s actually good?

from what I saw it looks decent... I would think it was the same food that is around the ballpark to begin with, just you now can get it all you an eat for one price

Yeah, it's been happening a lot. Our company is restructuring slightly after we lost a big contract and had to reallocate people (we're signing two new ones this month, going to be fun) and some stuff just gets lost in the shuffle.

Yeah I hear ya. I have been getting questions on Tickets I submitted 2 years ago... They are very backed up

I saw one moose out in Maine over an entire week+. Allegedly there aren’t many or any out on Acadia.

yesterday morning I was having my coffee and there was a big splatter of bird shit on my one window so I decided, well I should clean it.

that lead to cleaning the 3 windows in my living room...but the window sills were disgusting, so I got a bucked of hot water and some powdered tide and cleaned the fuck out of those...then I needed to do the screens.

eventually the pressure washer came out for the front porch.

I just couldn't stop

Jesus, that sounds like a nightmare! I bluescreen when I'm asked about stuff from a week ago.

haha yeah, needless to say I am in a deer in the headlights when I see those emails asking questions. Takes me forever to figure it out again and where and if I still have my research on said question

Sometimes I just make sh&t up and if they ask, "If this... correct" (after the give me some info) I just go, "yeah that's it, do that!"

This is why I email *everything*. One of my coworkers (above me on the ladder but I do work for her, I don't report to her) was all, "Hey, I know you're doing your work and doing it right, you don't have to attach all the documentation and spell everything out with every piece you submit." And I told her, "Thanks, but I'm doing it for me so that A) I have a reference to go back to if we shelve it and B) it's timestamped if my boss [usually my boss's boss] gets on my ass about it."

She totally got it. Plus our virtual system/server is flaky right now (poor IT - two guys and they're onboarding a whole new system for a new client, training themselves on it, training us on it, running the virtual machines, the server, etc all by themselves, and the server was down for MONTHS because some idiot onboarded malware into the server itself somehow during COVID) so having documents in my email I can access from literally anywhere is super important.

Yeah, it's super important to have all the information up front... However, it's been two years and the information that I gave to them two years ago might not be the same today. I mean things constantly change so at the time yes, what I gave you was correct, not my fault you couldn't correct it back then and now you see something different and wonder if it's the same person or not

There is a kickass steak joint outside of Medora, ND that serves the beat damn bison ribeyes you’ll ever find. I need to get back out to that place next time I’m out there.

There's pitchfork fondue steaks in Medora itself.

No one told me there’d be moose on Acadia. Where did I suggest someone did?

We didn’t stay on the island. I saw mine off-island.

I highly doubt that.

My guess is that like most other ballparks I've been in that offer an all-you-can-eat option is that it's the base level food options.

Done that. It’s fun once.

It's a novelty but mainly a way for them to cook steaks fast. The result for the eater is mostly meh.

That's true too. The working world is way weirder than I expected when I was in grad school.

If a deal like that includes pretty much all the food around the park, I’m in. If it’s the basic dogs, burgers, chicken strips, nachos, popcorn, etc.....count me out. I can pay $2.50 to eat that same stuff at my kid’s school.

I mean, I eat that stuff at games sometimes, but I’m not paying $60 to eat as much as I can. I can eat the same amount of it for probably $15 any night of the week at home.

I'm not making any claims as to the existence of Moose in Acadia, but the fact that it's on an island does not negate the possibility.

Moose are strong swimmers and can swim several miles at a time.
