GraveYard Shift BS

Still here. Threatened to get walked out last nite over some dumb shit. Meeting with my bosses boss this morning.

0530 pacific time is my magic number

 

Good luck. Try not to go all Johnny Paycheck on them.

 

neither can 6

 

you still got awhile

 

we are about to pass durham's numbers here

 

nearing the end of a 5PM to 6AM (13 hour) shift conducting fish surveys in the East River, New York City, we've got bay anchovies coming out the proverbial wazoo!

 

Wasted last hour and change on drafting my fantasy football team. So there's that. Ha

 

I did fantasy this year for the first time and had 9th pick. Got some decent players but didn't really know what the f I was doing since I don't pay attention to any other team than my Patriots.

 

i've paid too much attention to every position players as #1 or #2. I just enjoy it alot. Especially for cash

 

Here. Well, over 5 hours ago... Busy right out of the gate tonight. Time is flying though. Only benefit of stuff going wrong

@Matic , whatever came of your situation?

@robssol , how you holding up?

I spent almost 5 hours washing/detailing my truck today, it was a disaster and I wasn't a happy camper. It's clean now, but wasn't looking good for a bit. When I was coming home the other morning, and my windshield wipers and fluid, wasn't removing the crap on my windshield, I knew I was in trouble.

 

I'm overdue for some detailing on both yotas. I did the windshield the other day which was waaaaay overdue. Night driving requires clean glass.

 

This was either clinker dust, or crushed limestone dust. It came down on all our vehicles with the dew, and stuck. It was pouring down rain the other night, so bad that I was only going 35 on the interstate, and it didn't even touch this stuff. I hand washed it, and it only removed a little. I picked a little spot on the top of the cab, tried bug and tar remover...nope, then wd-40....nope. Ended up using 3-1 water with distilled white vinegar, and that did the trick. Then I hand washed again to remove the vinegar, and used detailing spray.

One guy that has worked there 5 years, said that's the worst it's ever done it, and that it rarely happens. ( I've been there a year and a half almost and it's never happened). It just had to happen two weeks after I bought a shiny black truck!

I did get that "glass" coat, but as soon as that stuff wears off, I'm probably going to bite the bullet and get ceramic pro put on. Just for extra protection. I don't mind dirty, I can wash it. This stuff was nuclear dirt.

 

Busy night tonight over here; must be the weather.

 

Hope I quoted this right.
Had a good talk this morning with my boss's superior. My boss has trouble telling the truth about things and also has integrity issues.
After I called him out a few times for lying, he got mouthy with me and threatened to have security walk me out. I changed into my shoes, shut the machine down, told my shift coordinator who is also a good friend of mine what happened, and patiently waited for security.

40 mins later, still no security.
Called my buddy and asked him what was going on and he said my boss was so worked up that he just bailed and went home.

Basically, all of the above happened because someone who is not authorized to run my machine worked sun and Monday. Time and a half and double time and a half. So, I lost some serious money this past weekend.
The entire time my boss was trying to cover the whole thing up.

I doubt anything will happen. It's happened several times in the past. All 3 shifts were warned and told that all OT goes to the machine operators who run and are currently tied to that specific machine.
But yet this asshole somehow keeps getting OT on my machine and this is not even his job classification.

 

I keep debating on ceramic pro myself, for My challenger. My local detailed wants like $3k for it.
