60+ year old thread.

Two or three years ago, a lot of workers at different companies took pay cuts, benefit cuts to keep their job. Now that the companies are doing better, do you think their benefits/pay have been restored? or has management just taken the $$$[/QUOTE]

Evening all:
HA! We gave up wages at Beth Steel. They were to to modernize!
Got Preference stock "GUARANTEED" to be worth about $35 a sh., and some at around $45 a sh. BUT; you could only cash them in when a % of profits went into an account, and it went by seniority.
Then they went BANKRUPT.
Guess what I got? NOTHING
But I'm not alone. A lot of us got S*****D!
Lucky I ended up with a pension!!!!!

 

Best one in days

Evening all:
Found an intermitted wiper switch for sale on the forum. Told him I was interested. No pics though, so the mods. locked the thread!
Unfortunatelly, the parts listed came at the expense of Sandy.
Hopefully he will post pics. and I can get it.

 

Carl:
This was the first mod I added to the Tacoma. IIRC the price was $118 shipped. Real easy to install.

 

morning all

Another post at 9:55!

 

HA, Ding Dongs.
That's being nice!!!

 

Hellloooooo!! Short work week here, too!

I've been really enjoying the new spa - in it twice a day at this point; 6:30 AM and then some time in the evening.

Got good news and bad news on my left hand - thought I'd dislocated my pinky finger about a week and a half ago and popped it back in myself.

The bad news? I actually broke my hand. The good news? I did a great job of setting the bones myself so I should have full mobility when it heals in 4 to 6 weeks.

I think the cloud of curse words I uttered in the two attempts it took me to reset the bones in my hand are still floating in space above our home. ###$!@@&**$$##!!!!!!

 

Afternoon all:
OUCH!
Well at least it should heal up pretty fast. You're young yet!
All you did was gyp the doc. out of a buck or two; well maby a grand or two!

 

Morning all...4 day weekend coming up. Heading upstate for 4 days...

Hi Mark, OUCH!! I have done jammed fingers, but a break or dislocation...

Have a good day all

 

It must have been that combat medic training I had before I deployed to Bosnia. Either that or I'm just stupid enough to set my own broken bones.

X2 on that finger,,,If one more pal dies Im going to need a bigger house

 

Mark:
It was the training. About 15 years ago I hadd to take an intensive Red Cross first aid training program to ba a foster parent. I was suprised at the depth of the course and the rememberance of the classes I took in basic training. The Army sure did teach a lot of first aid that has stayed with me a lifetime.

 

Evening all:
No comment!
