He always uses his CapitalOne card in order to get his No Hassle Miles.

Recently, the Swiss_Mouse attended a meeting by the HR department where he and his cow-workers were gently lectured upon his/their ethics and how the company expected peons to adhere to all rules.

In fact the entire end of the year was a roller coaster.

14.73% August 1
13.56%  September […]

In a follow up to the Swiss_Mouse’s last post about the $10,000 couch….

The Swiss_Mouse sleeps in his car almost every day.
Seriously.
What are the benefits?  Well, first off, if you read up on it, “power naps” are suppose to help you!  Maybe.  Swiss_Mouse ends up being mighty groggy though.  Not necessarily a bad thing.   Depending on the day, the Swiss_Mouse gets in a 10 minute to 50 […]
