    The other great benefit is guaranteed 5 year recall rights. They have to hire the people laid off 1st before anyone is hired off the streets. I took advantage of this back in 2001 when I first moved here. We were on the bubble, putting 280 turbine units out the door. The bubble burst, Enron happened and I was out the door.
    Moved back home to indiana for 4 yrs and 11 months, and they called me back with all my seniority +1 year of continuity of service from the time I was laid off.

    No. The sand mills we run the dye through, actually grinds the dye, get all the grit from the powder out of it. Some of the dyes will past from one tank to another, through the mills, for about a week and some will be good after a couple days.

    I've been doing parts of both (days and graves) for this stupid-assed class our team is being sent to.

    6p-6a for my regular shift, then come in for class from 6a-10a on my normal days off, then a 10p-10a, a 10p-6a, and a 6p-6a finish.

    I barely know my own name anymore.

    Thanks! I'm gonna need all the luck I can get!

    There's a bunch of OT involved of course, and I get an additional day off next week which'll be nice, it's just a matter of plowing through the rest of this as best I can.

    Cocaine... :rofl:

    But seriously that's insane. This is how work place accidents happen. Oi! Stay safe!

    I remember a few years ago being on the turn over crew for the GC to the owner, natural SNAFU, we we working as long as we could, crashing in our trucks, venue closets, our gangboxes anything that would hold still long enough and then whenever we woke up, or were woken up, going right back to it. I think I billed like the entire week straight. Made a whole pile of money, but hell if I ever do that again.:D
