tough question about the retiree

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 2:40:48 PM)
I saw Bob Gordon online & asked him. He said when he retired he fell back on hobbies to keep him busy... I don't know what she wound up doing for him...

Jim_VA (Feb 15, 2010 2:41:22 PM)
a lot depends on the size of the office

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 2:43:44 PM)
And the fact that she asked me the afternoon before! It would have been easier if I knew a little earlier :/

Jim_VA (Feb 15, 2010 2:45:02 PM)
I had 120 people so that made it easy

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 2:45:41 PM)

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:28:18 PM)
Ah, I know them well! They have a fan page on FB... That's where Ralph & I voiced our displeasure of not getting a call back and having to wait 2 weeks for a battery installation :)

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:30:16 PM)
We heard from the owner of ATG, he read the FB wall!

how often do you charge your chair beth

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:43:25 PM)
No because they don't play as a team! They play tonight at 7, the girls are on at 9...

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:44:32 PM)
ill be surfing with them and olympics

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:46:21 PM)
With the new batteries and the weather not good for being out and about, once every 5-6 days. In the summer when I'm outside, every 2-4 days.

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:46:44 PM)
overnight?

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:49:38 PM)
Yeah, I go bed around 1030 and Ralph goes to bed a couple of hours later. He plugs it in then, so it's on the charger for about 5-6 hours

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:50:09 PM)
lately ive been charging mine while at desk

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:50:26 PM)

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:50:31 PM)

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:51:05 PM)
Yeah, that works too!

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:52:14 PM)
What kind of bells & whistles does it have?

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:53:20 PM)
the usual i guess, tilt, seat elevation, foot rest lift, head recline

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:53:28 PM)
and full recline

mommazooms (Feb 15, 2010 3:55:44 PM)
Head recline? Do you mean the whole back of the chair? Full recline?

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 3:56:26 PM)
i can recline the back of chair and i can also recline (tilt) the whole chair back

pete46 (Feb 15, 2010 4:00:18 PM)
