If you won the multi-billion dollar lottery... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Chocoholic · 09-16-2005, 09:10 PM

...would you still keep your day job? Or would you go tell your boss to go eat doggie doo?

I'd keep my job. I love my kids

I wouldn't trade my job for one where I earned a thousand dollars a day. (Winning the multi-billion dollar lottery sure would be nice though.)

Southern Hellraiser · 09-17-2005, 10:05 AM

I accidentally voted for 2nd one, but I would quit my job.

IMakeBurgers · 09-17-2005, 06:58 PM

I wouldn't quit my job...The money will eventually be gone, but your job wont be.

Moonlight Lady · 09-17-2005, 07:01 PM

Totally!

robyrob · 09-17-2005, 10:03 PM

You can spend all of a multi-BILLION dollar lottery! Damn!

That's alot of cash!

I would go in the next day, but after that, they wouldnt want me back!

Kemistry · 09-18-2005, 08:37 AM

Darn right I'd quit! I deserve it after all the BS I've been put through at my job. Let me win millions of dollars and it would be a new world record of an employee quitting.

I'de quit my job, move back to British Columbia , and open up an authentic southern restaraunt at the base of Golden Ears mountain. When I lived there, people liked for me to make a lot of southern food while I lived there. They don't have anything like that around

Anything's possible.

I would buy the company I work for and run it the right way!
For example:
- 2 hour volleyball games every Mon-Wed-Fri
- Halloween is a vacation day for everyone
- One area will be set up for Halloween
- Chocolate available for everyone
- Employees pay will be doubled
- Work hours will be ~8:00 AM to 2:00 PM
- Female employees (under 50 years old) can wear bikinis if they want

- Field trips to the near by hills and mountains and beaches
- Celebrity guests (like Dawn Wells and Joyce DeWitt) will visit
- Every Friday afternoon will be "burnout day." Those who wish can do burnouts with their cars in the parking lot
- Movies will be run (on a big theatre-type screen) every Tuesday

I would own the company until I got tired of it, then sell it. But only to someone who enforces the "rules" I started.

I wouldn't quit my job, but I would start my own production company

Actually, it will be two vacation days... Halloween and the day after. That way, people can stay out late on Halloween night and not have to go to work the next day.

However, my employees will be required to visit the Hallowed Haunting Grounds... http://www.hauntinggrounds.org at least once during the days leading up to Halloween.
