DR Cillaliz--I saw yesterday's post about DirecTV. My understanding is that your antenna has to face south. My balcony faces north.

Yeah, it has to face south. Just thought I'd throw it out there since referrals save both people money

why does your antenna have to face South?

The dish has to face south because that's how it gets the satellite signal. That's the best technical answer I can give

I've been crazy busy at work. Still not planning to hire someone, but I'm having to figure out how to prioritize and schedule my time.

That seems so odd to me

I like the decorations, and have gone all out in the past, but just don't anymore. I may take some decorations to the office

I am not disputing it because I haven't got the first clew about Direct TV

Well, I don't know ,,,,found this on a real nerdy site

The DirecTV satellite is 22,300 miles above the earth at the equator. The one you will want is DirecTV 10 at 102.8°W. Which in the U.S. means pretty much South. Exact positioning will depend on where you live.

Get out a globe and mark 103 degrees West Latitude at the equator. Draw a line to where in the U.S. you live. This will tell you the direction you need to point the satellite dish.

DirecTV 5 at 109.8°W
DirecTV 7S at 119.0°W
DirecTV 4S/8 at 101.0°W

Everywhere else I have ever worked there were always Christmas decorations, but my boss is Jewish so no decorations

I like it actually. I got it years ago when it first came out and cost a fortune. Then I went to cable and am now back.

We had a Jehovah's Witness work at the FPD. We couldn't celebrate anything

Edith wasn't much into Christmas....or anything else remotely religious

OK that actually makes sense to me with my limited understanding of anything technical or scientific

Cillaliz · « **Reply #137 on:** December 03, 2014, 09:05:51 PM »

I'm going to have to go down the basement and dig out some decorations. I have a tree in the garage storage. Hmmm this could be fun

Not right now, though

The JW was just one of the employees? That also seems odd to me that one employee's religion coudl "trump" everyone elses.... in my case it is the owner/sole proprietor/attorney so its his firm and he gets to decide...

I'm thinking no new clients the rest of the month. I've got to catch up and if I can get enough money saved up, I'm going to take a good chunk of time off at the end of the month

vixmom · « **Reply #141 on:** December 03, 2014, 09:09:02 PM »

It also seems odd to me that I would post almost a full page of recipes for absolutely no apparent reason

my boss was paranoid that we do anything that may offend her. So we just said skip it

and oddly enough I am now feeling peckish

Cillaliz · « **Reply #144 on:** December 03, 2014, 09:09:51 PM »

But they look like good recipes so that's fine

Hmmm just turned on TV, they are still marching around NYC. At least it doesn't look violent

AH! Peckish...I'll have to use that and see if people understand. as in "I'm feeling a bit puckish, do you have anything that can help?" and see what I get, lol
