Is this a good idea or bad idea.

I could go to the bank tomorrow and open a separate account, and then get a PayPal account.

I could leave work and get my arse reamed out for leaving , but if enough think it is worth it..I'd take one for the team and tell my boss to bite me

.how about it?

Saving 2 gages will cost $28K a year - we'd need $14K a year to save the gages. rangerrob New
