I had to take the boss to pick his car up at the repair shop and drop mine off for an oil changed. It's always a little awkward being one on one with him outside of work. You'd think after 23 years it wouldn't be but it still is.

My boss and I were like that. He was a good guy, but strange. No offense to all the Scientologist in this thread, but he was one of those. The whole place was full of them.

He owned the company, and had a lot of property in Tennessee that he was trying to make into a state park. He paid well, and would randomly put thousands of dollars into all the employees 401k, but... He had this weird thing he did every time he talked to you. Whether it was just small talk or work related, after the conversation was done he would just stare at you with this expressionless, half grin look on his face, and his head would tilt ever so slightly to the left. One time I timed it and we just sat there looking at each other for 7 minutes. Imagine a guy who acts and looks like Mr. Rogers doing that to you. It was creepy... all the non-Scientologist in the place thought so too.

    The cranberry mix in a Zenith is better than the GT but I expected that. The good thing is the GT still does good. I’m happy with it. My 2 mini GT’s are being sent to me today. I know I’m going to love those. Finally can do away with the Nauti Prime which I dislike much. Best thing of all is I’ll finally have decent tanks to use my Nauti coils in :thumbs:
    I use a juice, Liqua Traditional Tobacco, no matter what I have tried, it tastes best in a Zlide / ZenithPro with a Z Coil, 1.2, the taste is a little more round compared to anything else I have tried.
    I have tried Nautilus 1.6, mesh 0.7, Triton 1.8 clapton.
    Kayfun Lite, Prime, Ether, Siren2, Ares2, ss316, rayon, cload9, CottonGods, Fusion, CottonBaconPrime.

    I have realized that that juice works best in one setup.

    I do agree but the Nauti GT gives me an acceptable vape that I'm happy about because I have so many coils for them.

    I did hear from Anna. She is still hoping to get her desired job. At present they are checking her references and doing a thorough job of it. She had to provide 6 references and they are only on the second so it will be a bit of time before she knows. She does feel positive about it.

    Happy Friday!

    Happy vapeversary @NolaMel :rickroll:



    I have a cart going at ecigmafia and myvaporstore. Ecigmafia will increase shipping on Monday. MVS has already done it as of today. $16.99 shipping. :eek: So is this really what is happening? The shipping charges are just being increased with adult signature and we can still buy stuff? I'm confused. :blink:

    It would have been even creepier if you were the only one that he did that to. Reminds me of a movie. " It puts the lotion on it's skin or it gets the bucket again". I think that's how it went.

    Relationships with bosses can be strange. I worked for the Civil Service in the UK once and we had a visit from the head of the department, who was a Lord. They gave us all a glass of wine when we met him. About a dozen of us were standing in a circle with him. He put his left hand in his pocket and held the glass in his right hand, after a while I noticed that all of us had instinctively adopted exactly the same posture with our left hand in a pocket and glass in the right.

    When you get it figured out let me know. I love mangos but haven't figured out a good recipe. I actually bought some real mangos on my last trip to Sam's. I find them messy but love them. I got hooked on them the first time I went to the Philippines. So far I have INA Mango, TFA Mango, TFA Mango concentrate, TFA Phillippine Mango, and CAP Sweet Mango in my flavor stash. All I lack is a good recipe.
    I like these two:

    Mango Blossom Macaron -- ID10-T

    2.00% Almond (Mandorla) (FA)
    1.00% Cream (Flavorah)
    4.00% Honeysuckle (TPA)
    1.50% Mango (Flavorah)
    2.00% Meringue (FA)
    2.00% Sugar Cookie v1 (CAP)

    Mango Sticky Rice FLV (Shyndo)

    0.50% Coconut (Coco, Cocco) (FA)
    0.75% Coconut Candy (TPA)
    1.00% Cream Fresh (Panna Fresca) (FA)
    1.00% Island Mango (SC) (WF)
    3.00% Mango (Flavorah)
    0.50% Sweet Coconut (Flavorah)
    6.00% Sweet Rice (FE)
    0.75% Sweetener (Sucralose) (FW)

    The other Scientologists didn't? Did they do the same thing?

    She will get there in the end I'm sure. You have to give her this, way back in AZ she came up with a seriously complicated and ambitious plan, and apart from one crappy job and a few minor dramas everything worked out. She's on the last lap now.

    I finally got around to replacing the Earl Grey flavoring I threw out when I had gone off that flavor. Just in time as I'm down to the last tankful of juice. Mixing today. The stuff I'm vaping now sat on a shelf for over a year unused and it's better than I ever remember it. Hope the new mix doesn't take a year to steep up.

    I also have blackcurrant to try making a substitute for a Chef's one-shot. And caramel for an OSDIY one-shot that I can't buy at the moment.

    I’m very happy for her that she loves WV and her new home also.
