    My problem is stuff with saturated fat. Sure, loaded with protein, but that fat will get ya. Also portion control, that's a big one :pout:

    Unfortunately eating has always been the one thing I was really good at -- add in the fact that my standards are low -- a deadly diet combination.

    Wow, that first offer was pretty crappy and smacks of disrespect. I know it’s business but you’re not right out of High School.
    He knows you have kids and are active in their lives. One week vacation my ass…

    I’d pass on any offers from this guy unless it’s a game changer. Even then, that one week vacation would stick in my head….

    Having a good boss that respects employees, and gives them as much benefits and paid that they can afford without jeopardizing the company’s future is better than more money with a boss that may not care about home life and your family’s well being.


    Deck is looking good.

    The dog is still a semi-frequent visitor. Had her for a week and a half and she'll be back next week.

    I spy with my little eye............a Lincoln tombstone welder. That is what I learned to weld with at 10 years old. Dad still has it, rarely used now.

    I had one and never used it and since I have a portable stick welder, I sold the Lincoln.

    Those welders were the stable of many garages many years ago. Know a retired master plumber and while visiting his property (think 1mil plus, I think I made the wrong career choice) and right there in his shop one of those old Lincoln welders.

    Never got to use one of those. Got to learn stick on a 480v Miller machine. Spoiled me for sure :anonymous:

    I have a friend who has a plumbing business, he's pretty well off too :burp:

    When I got the Miller Bobcat and learned it welds so much better than the Lincoln because of more power, that was a no brainer :D

    It's kinda weird when you think about it, how we don't know each other, but we share things here that we probably don't even tell our real life buddies.

    Thanks Creed for letting us chew on the details and be a sound board for your decision making process.

    I also am considering a job switch. I should know today or tomorrow whether the supe is going to fill the slot or drop the req. I've prayed about it, dotted my i's and crossed my T's...

    @hiPSI and I have talked about this, it comes down to one word....respect.

    We respect each other and I truly am grateful for each and every one of you, friends :hattip:

    Good luck on your job situation as well, I know you've been talking about it off and on.
