    Nope!! Corporate america sucks!! Lets bring in cheaper labor and make the current employees train them, then fire them or lets just close our factory (Oreo) and move it to Mexico for cheaper labor. My $20,000,000 pay isn't enough :rant: :annoyed:

    I threw them for a "Loop" when I mentioned my techs and how they treat them instead of trying to save myself and then further "bounced them" when I announced my "new ride" had been in play for 2 weeks. Sad when your shop foreman recognizes distress quicker than the management types :confused: .....

    I will get the last ZING when uniforms are returned, my PETERBILT hat will be worn as I walk back into a FTL dealership :boink: :thumbsup:

    And Mike you know I would NEVER provoke a situation :yay:

    Morning all:
    ME TOO! :(

    Might also add the Capt.(RIP), John, the Porsche guy, the Psychologist, and a few others who visited for awhile. :( Always enjoyed reading what they had to say.
    I still think the Psychologist was doing a study project on us, and it didn't take long to figured out we're all nuts! :D

    Going good...almost have my garage back; enough so that the Ranger will go back in there today. We fly out to Phoenix tomorrow afternoon for a long Halloween weekend with the kids and grandkids; back Tuesday night. Looking forward to that. :)

    How are you Mike?

    2 1/2 weeks left for early archery, which are the prime weeks because of the rut. Then 2 weeks of rifle season, starting the day after Thanksgiving, then 2 weeks of flintlock starting the day after Christmas, along with a late archery season.
    Really getting to be tough hunting in a lot of areas I hunted for most of my life, I'm glad I'm even seeing a few deer.
    Trying to find some decent scrapes to set up on, or a rub line on some heavy trees; none of that so far. Either they aren't into rut yet, or there's nothing there to make them! :notsure:
    Sure you know this; right now there's bare ground--TOUGH DRAGGING. I would much rather drag a deer out with some snow on the ground, makes it a lot easier.
    OH GOD! Hope I don't have to rely on the flintlock! :facepalm::laughing:
