Wishing I had a job to go back to when this all ends.

My company let 40% of us go on April 1st. I had done a 14 hour SFDC upgrade for them the day before...wish they would have let me know a little bit before hand.

No furlough, just an 8 minute FU conference call from the CEO.

Whelp, gas at $1.43 a gallon makes it easy to travel to work on the boat.

Gonna be a great year to own a two stroke.

I also nuked my FB, best decision ever!!!

Today I convert to hydraulic steering...our tax dollars at work...FOR ME!

Trust me, that guy wasn’t me. In all reality, I’d suggest that everyone nukes their FB account.

I have lots of friends with lots of different opinions. I really don’t want to hear people’s points or counterpoints. I mean that in the nicest of ways.

Real politicians run for office. The rest of us are worse than back seat drivers. I’d just love it if people just shut up and see how November goes. That should take care of everything.

Getting that damned mechanical steering out of that boat SUUUUCKED!

Hope all goes well Bob.

As far as home confinement ....being "essential" has it's ups and downs....I get out of the house to go to work everyday....I guess thats an up...the down is that I get to expose myself everyday I dont mind cooking and cleaning every night but damn I really miss going out now and again and letting someone do it for me....especially after a rough day!

Simplify.......

It will be worth your trouble. I even converted my 17' Boston Whaler to hydraulic.
