Doesn't look good for me at all so far. Starting a new job Aug 6th, (woo hoo BTW), and won't have any vacation time till the first of the year, and I have a "customer's" car to paint.

Joe, sorry bout your car, that sucks.

It was a riot indeed! The SEVWC is a great bunch of folks. Some are so friendly, they'll tell you about their sex-life. :help:

I missed the three alarm campfire incident cause I had my back turned. I saw the "Glow" on John Helgesen's face, and he changed his expression from to . When I turned around, the flames had subsided considerably.

Congratulations about the job. I take it that it is not the one in Atlanta...

Yeah, the one in ATL didn't work out.

The new one is better anyway, more $$ and I don't have to move (or give up my shop). I'll be doing design and engineering work for Pentair Pools, making pool filters and other equipment. Growing company with a commitment to keeping jobs in the US, what a concept.

Well, it could include little blond 20 somethings dancing on a table, or a 400 hp company car, but you can't have everything.

I do get flex hours though, just have be there between 9-3, the rest of the 8 hours are pretty much up to me.
