    Dwayne, come on Man!! That's like the first thing I learned in the labor force! ;););)

    1. Doing good work earns you more work and likely your work plus someone's shittier work.
    2. Showing up sober and 5 min early gets you the job half the time.
    3. "Fake it to you make it" works everywhere but the medical field.

    Morning all
    Day 2 of sleeping in.
    I could get used to it, but I miss the cat.

    Drinking coffee, watching the surf, catching up on old timer issues. (That would be you)

    X2 on the pole saw. I use an electric one to clear around the villa. Crap on the Oregon coast grows fast.
    I never missed a day of work, the first 11 years, I busted my ass and took more calls and tackled tough problems that no one else would do.
    Nobody cares.
    Ineffective management, chasing numbers can kill your drive.

    Now I do it because I like fixing stuff.

    I think that might be the answer. My shoulder doesn't like starting small gas engines... my weed eater is almost more than it can handle, snow blower makes me think twice and take out the shovel... what do you recommend in battery chainsaws? I think Sue also mentioned one.

    Got back from doctor. He doesn't think it's a kidney issue. More like bruised rib or muscle issue. More like age issues.
    Did more snow clean up, anybody want some.
    Work called, want me to come in early. I said yes. Sometimes I think I am aditicted to my job.

    Filled the bird feeders and found a bird in the feeder.

    Did my good deed for the day and let him out.

    Don't care much for grinners since I saw a whole family of them crawl out of a dead cow's gut. :puke:
