We don't ask questions as long as you show up to work. We're not very picky..

Like, we don't even ask in the interview, we ask "do you have a reliable method of getting to work?"

..most of them drive themselves. One of them was arrested and did 3 years in jail for a high speed chase where they called out a chopper.

<INSERT DIRTY WORD HERE> Last night's high winds brought down a pine that dates back to the early 60s....and placed it on Lynn's greenhouse. I initially thought it was mostly broken glass in a skylight and windows, but after some of the branches were cut away and I got a better look inside, there's some definite structural damage and a pretty good forward lean from the weight. Wating to hear back from my insurance company.

Ugh.

That's a kick. Hope you can rebuild it.

He's one of my better employees tbh. I don't hold stuff like felonies against people. If someone shows up and wants to work I'll give them work.

Hey gang,

Sorry if I’m just out of the loop but any plans for a PA meet up? Would be awesome to get together and maybe even do some light snow wheeling. I’m up in trout run, would love to nerd out!

Hard, honest work is the cure to living a straight life. That and having a family to care for. If that doesn't do it, nothing will, in my opinion.

Definitely sucks but luckly it wasn't a bedroom or living space. Buildings can be replaced, humans can't.

Hey gang - just found this PA thread. I split my time between Glenside (NW suburb of Philly) and Pike County (Lake Wallenpaupack). First Taco is a 2021 SR DCSB and just hit 1,000 miles over the weekend. Enjoy following the thread..... Just starting to read about OvTune. Is this something I should look to have a member help me with - I'm not doing a lot of offroad, etc..... although I'm hoping to start trapping next fall/winter so I'll be doing a little but not major.

In the meantime, I've been making adding accessories/mods as time and weather permit and have them listed in my sig.

That was the policy at my old job -- unfortunately most of them didn't want to show up or work either. Really got disheartening after a while, you give people an honest and unbiased chance to improve themselves, they talk a big "change my life" talk and then don't show up... One guy said "I don't get paid to sweep".

Another day at work with no production. I don't know how much longer I can keep the guys busy without resorting to make work.

No production nothing getting broke !

I can see management not starting any major projects .

Welcome! I’m close by in bucks county. Very familiar with Lake Wallenpaupack, my folks have a home in Tanglewood Lakes. Been going up there for weekend getaways for the last 20 years.

can’t like that.

came home this afternoon to over 6” of water in my basement. Sump pump couldn’t keep up with the combo of rain & snow melt.

complete fucking mess.

Replaced the pump and in 2 hours evacuated most of the water.

Going to be running this for about a week:

Good morning fellow Pennsyltuckyvanians!!

Sorry about the flooding, Craig. It's never fun to come home to a mess like that.

Stay safe out there!
