    Afternoon, Stevie..

    I was out on call pretty much all night, last night. Finally got home and showered and laid down around 10am. Just woke up 20 minutes ago.

    this was the last job I worked before saying f’ it.. I’m going home. Day crew was in now and they could have it.

    This call out was 0450 this morning after being back home for an hour and a half. The driver fled the scene according to the police. I think the 4way intersection might be back open now….. nope... Guys are still working it.

    The day wasn’t bad till on call started at 1900 hrs. then it went straight down the crapper for the rest night.

    As for everything taking longer?. Heck yeah, even the simplest of things too.

    I think they got a piece of it on the other side of the van. They missed the steel light pole by inches. Also took out a chunk of curbing as well.

    Damn, dude. I guess I don’t have to pay taxes because ypu are doing it for me. :rofl:
    While I was out there.. a cop almost got run over because a jack ass was not paying attention. Guy was trying to blow through the intersection even though it was shut down. That said, others started to drive around the cop cars and go through the intersection. Every single officer stopped them and had words with the drivers. They were pissed as hell. Todays public doesn’t give a shit at all. Its all about them and nothing else.

    I told a person one day to go to their office to work (he was working from home but out on a walk with his dog), as we were doing repairs and things off. The guy said he’d call in on me for that comment. I told him I didn’t care, I hate my job anyway because of people like him. I have yet to hear anything back from management. I do my best to be nice to the public, but sometimes it has to be said.

    Alabama changed how they tax overtime starting the beginning of the year. Not exactly sure of the details but I think 40 hour employees OT is exempt from state tax now. :goingcrazy:

    Looks like you had a long shift.

    It top off my Friday, I got my blue Tacoma back from the body shop, the hood would not open, and AC was not working. Thankfully, I just had to charge it. Then, my son and I spent the majority of the day taking the whole front end apart, re aligning everything so the hood would unlock and close. I hate paying for work that they should have done.
