I am gonna go with Haralabos making one bazilliondy dollars solving the NBA.

EDIT: I guess Nate's stuff is pretty influential now that I think about it. Sports >>> lol politics though. And if Haralabos published his work instead of hoarding it to be rich, he'd be super influential in that regard.

Nitpicking but Hbob hasnt solved the NBA.

So in addition to Duke not making the Final 4 this weekend my whole week just got ruined. I was supposed to have jury duty, but found out I was excused last night. This morning my boss decides to tell me that he had to turn down a Masters ticket for me for a few days this week because he couldn't wait on the offer until I found out if I had jury duty. Nut low Monday already.

Why did you tell the office that you got out of jury duty? Looks like you cost yourself a paid day off right there.

you should have formed a coalition with the other smart people in your office and become your own boss

Meh. If you have a project-based or collaborative environment where people are counting on you to be in the office that's one thing. If you're just filling out TPS reports and occupying a seat all day then I don't see the big deal.

Elaborate on how I would go about this? Also, I respect and like my bosses so I don't really have a desire to disrespect them or slank away from work.
