• 872 was re donuts

    I wonder what happens when someone in the legal
    department approaches the magic 65.
    Interesting question... At Kodak, it was the magic 85... age plus years
    of service... Richard had 29 1/2 years of service, and was just under 55 or so when he was laid off...
    Not the nicest thing in the world - similar
    to what happened to Bodle a couple decades ago.
    In Bodle's case, he was told that he satisfied the conditions for
    retirement pay -- but after he left service, his retirement was denied claiming that some six months of service did not count.

    I wasn't clear on what happened, or why
    some effective lawyer (I first wrote good,
    but that might not be the right word for
    lawyers in general) didn't get on the case
    and badger the government until it caved.

    In either case -- it sucks completely.

    Seems that meanness is pretty common and
    becoming commoner.

    I guess people don't "do unto others as
    you would have them do unto you" these days.

    Title: Rice with Pesto Sauce
    Categories: Grains
    Yield: 2 servings

    150 g Long-grain rice; washed
    1 Tb Sunflower oil
    3 Tb Pesto sauce
    Salt and pepper
    Grated Gruyere

    Serves 2-3

    Quick, cheap and easy - this recipe fits all those bills! It is
    deceptively good, too, for all its simplicity. Serve it with a tossed
    salad and some warm granary rolls.

    Put the rice into a large saucepan of boiling salted water, add the oil
    (to prevent it sticking) and simmer for about 8-10 min, until well
    cooked. Drain and pile into a serving-dish. Spoon the pesto sauce over
    the top, stir in well and season to taste. Serve with a bowl of finely
    grated Gruyere to sprinkle over it.
