Guest #1 January 1, 2003 Silly me, I volunteered to work overtime today...so here I am. Everything is kaput, so I'm just babysitting for the next 5 hours. That and eating my heart out looking at Cornholio's Eloy Boogie photos. HNY anyway, everyone."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

mustard 0 #3 January 1, 2003 I'm also working today, but I actually have work that needs to get done. I couldn't resist taking a look at DZ.com before I begin, though. My current picture was taken by Mike McGowan on Christmas Eve, coming down from the last jump of the day. It was an awesome boogie, although I had to leave early to come back to work. I hear they have extended the boogie through the coming weekend. It was really beginning to rock when I got there, but I'll be this morning there aren't too many people rushing into Manifest (except the teams, of course). *** DJan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest #4 January 1, 2003 Wow, DJan, it's been a while. Haven't seen you since Rantoul, remember?"The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobsled92 0 #5 January 1, 2003 Well, I was going to work today and tomorrow, but after the Corporate ASSes laid off a bunch of Technicians, we are short staffed to handle the work load. They decided to force me to work this Sat without posting the change.I refused to work 1 single hr(no=today,=no Thurs) They forced me onto a "Laid off" Tech's Schedule. It would be 2 1/2 pay but, I had to draw the line with their behavior. I worked on Christmas during the snow storm on phone lines. It was my Son's 1st Christmas. I figure I sacrificed enough already. I hope they're giving you "Holiday pay", Mark. _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest #7 January 1, 2003 Quote I hope they're giving you "Holiday pay", Mark. Yes they are. I wouldn't be here (all things considered, I'd rather be in Eloy), but I need the dough."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

skycop 0 #14 January 1, 2003 Yep, I'm working, and to top it all off we had a ten year old kid die in a fire last night. Three of our guys tried to save him and they could'nt. Everyone is really bummed, luckily I left early last night and missed it by an hour. What a way to start the new year. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

flyangel2 2 #23 January 2, 2003 Nice picture DJan. I still have to find a picture of me that I'm willing to post for the world to see. WORK, not me, not till the 6th of this month. I've been off since mid Dec. It so pays to work at the college, great vacations May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
