    It's morning again:pccoffee:
    Oh fun day today...not so much I think.
    So many times a year we have drill scenarios, like accident situations. I get to be part of the control group today. I'd much rather just be a player....much easier, no stress.

    Good Luck the scary part is when you have those surprise drills and they don`t announce it is a drill to it is quite involved.

    Maybe those days are past.

    This morning on the chopping block, a big stainless electrical box that gets a square cut in front for a screen and a lot of holes for conduit to connect.

    Don't know how you guys get up so early. My alarm is set for 10am if for some reason I don't get up. Typically up a couple hours before that. Not a morning person at all!



    Ok, in my defense I work 2nd shift :rofl:

    I tried working 2nd shift for a couple months way back. I couldn't do it. We worked four 10 hour days and by the time I got out of bed after getting off work I had to go back to work. I hated it.

    I love it myself. We also work 4 10 hour days, 1PM to 11:00PM. I'll get home around 12, clean up, browse the internet a little bit, and sack out. Never was a morning person even when I did have daytime jobs. The worst was 3rd shift, I think I took 10 years off my life in those 2 years...

    We worked 3:30 to 1:30 but they would want us to work 12 some days, no thanks. We could clock in 15 minutes early but if we clocked out 1 minute early they deducted 15 minutes off our pay. There would be a line of workers waiting to punch the clock.

    Second Shift I hated the most quit a few jobs not being able to get off.

    I love starting in the wee morning hours I have always been a morning person Just don`t bother me come late afternoon .

    Once I got older and no longer worried about sleeping to make others happy working third shift is my favorite I always sleep better during the day since I was a little kid. The Sun Comes up I need to sleep The same with Interstates during the day they put me to sleep during the dark I am fine.

    If I don`t have a fixed schedule or need to be someplace I will be sleeping all day up all night in a few weeks

    Got the square cut, filed the sharp edges and squared the corners, blended the finish best I could with some scotch brite.
