    Never fails when your home weekends the time goes by in a blur Monday is here so fast.

    When You unload Thorsady Morning and Don`t reload till Monday but never learn to late Friday.

    The time seems to really drag by.

    This was in the Days before Cell Phones having to call in every 2 hours.

    I had some similar situation from my coworker, the boss gave me a lesson due to me not being a "team player". :mad:
    However, I don't have to deal with them any longer since they both were fired for other incidents. :laugh:

    I've had cats and dogs all my life. Right now I just work too much for a dog even though I would like one, maybe when I retire. Cats are easy for a person that works long hours, just fill their bowls up and make sure their litter box is clean. They nap all day and then want your attention when you get home. Lol.
