employee discounts

 i had just heard from a colleague from a former job through linkedin and was asked if there were any employee discounts with the bank i work for. i said i was not aware of any, aside from when i saw a twins baseball game from the bank's suite. i let my vacation replacement know about it and was told there is a site where i can register to see employee discounts. didn't take that long, had to look up my employee number on a paystub to complete it. there are some of interest, but in some ways, it reminded me of groupon. used it once in april for a circus ticket and haven't used it since. i saw movie tickets there, i do go to movies on occasion. a car rental agency was also listed. some restaurants as well, but i stopped scrolling after it looked like jersey mike's wasn't listed. those were listed in 'alpha order'. hard to say how much i will use it. also notable from the day was how it took a while to see the two fargo files, so i was largely idle for a while. i did finally see them in the afternoon, after i returned from lunch and said i usually have heard something by then. thankfully it was a fairly low volume, and i had enough time to send out all of the smaller file. all told i sent out just over half of the checks from those two files, the largest of the day, same-day. the backlog at the end of the day was cut in half from the previous day. before lunch i went to a dairy queen and had a french silk pie blizzard. late in the evening i went on a walk and found 38 cents. the 'big bang theory' reruns were when bernadette was part of a simulated space walk 'to prove a stupid point'. it was followed by the one where sheldon tries to be an instructor but only howard signs up for his class. i ordered a ticket for a play that will be opening soon, i will be seeing it a month from now.
