Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Goodmorning mechanics and builders and fixers of things.
I met the new hire yesterday afternoon.
Too early to draw a picture, but for certain I'll have lots of training opportunities.

 

Mornin'.... Already?

Howdy Lime Green Crew.

 

Well I hope you made it through the day.

I was always a little leery when a new person started with the crew .

 

@six5crèéd

 

Hope he's doing okay.

 

So do I. I kinda miss the feller.

 

praying for ya @six5crèéd

 

Morning all

 

Every day.

 

Goodmorning crew. Yeah, hope that Creed is doing alright. I guess just kind of assume that he is fine and just detaching from phone and internet and being closer with family.
But yes, pray it's not something bad.
Hopefully he'll stop in and say hello soon.
New coworker with me and I think he'll work out good. He has a bit more training this AM before he's back today. That's just his general access training. He'll have years of training. Even if I don't stick around this place much longer.

 

I think a good word to describe employment here, the part that burns me out....
Hypocrisy.

 

My former job:
Management by weather vane
or
Wanting to have input
or
Herding cats -- this one describes the wifes family too

EDIT: But on the other hand they paid me fairly well to do a lot of silly stuff.

 

I think we all miss Shane and Cole as well .

I hope all is well !! He did keep things going !!

 

Your edit plays into the situation here too. The pay for the area (or any area) is hard to top for a trades person and in general all fields here. Not many other places pay a custodian $20.00 a hour I don't think (example).
If I can just stomach the BS for 4 years....

 

I'm sure Shane will have some work to show off when he hops back on.

 

I've got one for the "what's this tool Thursday"

 

I don’t get on here much anymore, but I did at this prime moment!
I hope you all are doing well… And you too Shaneard, wherever you are!
