    Eight workers at a Nebraska meat processing plant claimed the record $365 million Powerball jackpot on Wednesday, giving each about $15.5 million after taxes.

    The winners included a maintenance supervisor and maintenance technician at Con Agra in Lincoln Nebraska!

    Nice to see some folks from Maintenance get ahead. I wonder what the operators in that plant think?

    At least 4 have quit their jobs. What would you do?

    I think I'd sell my place in Nebraska and move to the gulf coast of Florida. Maybe one of them is my long-lost cousin.

    If I who earn a five figures salary a year, get a ten figures bag of money after taxes, I would not tolerate a single additional (what is the term? crap?) from my boss.

    I'm sure I will find a new way to keep my brain busy, my heart happy, and my tummy full. Smiler Smiler Smiler

    Also, I think I will give my boss a farewell gift. One must be grateful for the things learned.
