    Jealous of you guys - I'm working 5/13s, only off on the weekends

    Also jealous of the beer, though I prefer Bud Light Lime

    Nope, I work for a construction company in a refinery. We're building a new unit. I actually love working the 5/13s - it's great money. Just get jealous hearing about people drinking beer while I'm stuck at work. :D

    The OR and Sport do. The base model reg, and X-Runner only get 1 piston caliper, and little tiny rotors. Horrible design flaw on Toyota's part.

    1 hr to go and then half to go in early for CPR training. Hopefully we have a good looking EMT there giving the class. There was a hot girl here last time but that was 3 yrs ago.

    That sounds like a good time! (The 5 days off in the mountains that is.)

    A beer however would be awesome right now. Just popped the top on a Diet Coke...

    What kind of work do you do? I have a slight chance of landing in the Carolinas for the next job.

    Lol, it may kill me, but I won't lose my job! I've never had the pleasure of driving through mountains... or sand. I live in the flattest state and we don't have much sand either. I'm envious of you guys who get to play in that stuff!

    In Louisiana?? Nope!

    I work for a construction company on a job inside an oil refinery. We are building a non-road diesel unit. I am the field office administrator. I stay clean, warm, dry, and still reap the benefits of refinery construction pay. For the next month or so, then who knows where we'll be. We applied at a couple plants on the east coast, one in South Carolina and one in North Carolina.

    So you just have to push a button to fix it. Is it the "easy" button? j/j ;)

    It is. I can be at Sea Level by the ocean in an Hour then be up in the Mountains at 6800 ft in an Hour. The Norcal is a good place to be. If you can stand the Politics and prices of things. We do have everything here but for a price.
    Working for an oil refinery would be neat though. A lot going on I bet.
