60+ year old thread.

Fluid Film on the hinges ... Hadn't thought of that.

 

That garage is entirely too neat! Makes me look like a total slob.

 

3 years since my last clean out.... Think I did good this time.... Lots more to do..

 

Going to try and do a little put away odd things in the garage tomorrow. I had been staging towels and blankets for a pet shelter drive that were delivered today. This summer I did an extensive garage clean up, even went through my small parts containers and straightened them out.

 

That's my next project. I need to arrange small hardware. Nuts, bolts, etc..

 

Actually did not take that long to do. 1 bin at a time.

 

I'm still getting Kristi to sort the "keep and get rid of" from her garage sale stuff. I've sorted and stored all of my stuff that I can. I just know the snow is gonna catch me. Uuugh ... I'd do it myself, but the keep stack would be real short, and she knows it ... too cold to sleep in garage ALL WINTER.

 

I need to find the bin system I want......

 

Mine is a hodge podge of what was available at the time. All were free.

 

My time in "Corporate America" is over; dealership just lost 3 big service contracts and guess who got "down sized" The only guy not on commission or salary.............yours truly and the best part, I agreed to take a cut down to 40 hours last Monday....

I will take my 4 day weekend with the wife and then go back to driving; my true career choice and best of all....

I will again be "Piloting a Peterbilt"...........

Everyone go out and enjoy their day and week..............Mine just got better

 

Afternoon all:
Hope you are serious about the job loss being kind of a blessing!
Sorry to hear about the "down sizing" that effected you personally, but hope all turns out well with you back to "Piloting a Peterbilt", at least you have something to fall back on. STAY SAFE, and watch out for all those maniacs on the road! I'm sure you will be able to share some stories with us!!!!

 

It was a ble$$ing" in disguise, I have a habit of speaking my mind and management with layers gets "tight" ......Plus FT.Myers is still stagnant A few larger dealers have put "new stores" on the back burner till it "ticks up"

I am NOT going out on the road, just grabbing a "Local gig" and will be in my own bed every night

 

Hope you are happy with the downsizing. "they" say, when one door closes, another one opens"

afternoon boats!!

 

IF I could figure out this NEW PC you could view a "Boat"

 

Back at ya Sue!

Saw another decent size bear today and 2 deer tails . Bet if I bought a bear lic. I would have a big buck walk in front of me and not see a bear!

 

Do I really want to see it?

Isn't that they way it always goes?? When I was in Alaska, we never saw mooses on base, except during moose season. And they'd walk down the middle of the street.

 

There is no piece of mind anymore. Sounds like this is a non issue for you. Drive like hell and don't look back...

 

Nope!! Corporate america sucks!! Lets bring in cheaper labor and make the current employees train them, then fire them or lets just close our factory (Oreo) and move it to Mexico for cheaper labor. My $20,000,000 pay isn't enough

 

ABORT RANT

I miss Jim.

 

I threw them for a "Loop" when I mentioned my techs and how they treat them instead of trying to save myself and then further "bounced them" when I announced my "new ride" had been in play for 2 weeks. Sad when your shop foreman recognizes distress quicker than the management types .....

I will get the last ZING when uniforms are returned, my PETERBILT hat will be worn as I walk back into a FTL dealership

And Mike you know I would NEVER provoke a situation
