Well at least it has a good name this week.

Coffee, tea, sweet tea an' ph00 are all ready.

chaikwa.

 

Hey, no creeping around dark corners looking for the breakroom. Wouldn't mind the tea and phoo so much if you wouldn't have to get around all the scented candles and doylee's to get to the good stuff. Feel like a bull in a china shop.

 

Good opening this morning, Scott. People just don't appreciate that job you do behind the scenes like they should.
Quiet morning, busy week behind me and more ahead. Having been in the new job for a month, I have discovered that 90% of upper level management ain't got a clue as to what's going on down at the nut and bolt turning level. I have already been labeled as a non team player in management because I am concerned with the welfare of the people that work for me (novel idea)and we (the three shops I now supervise) are more focused on customer service than insuring that the grass is removed from the sidewalk cracks. As a result of cutting out a bunch of the unnecessary BS in job routing, we've been able to increase output by 50% + without changing any maintenance procedures. Gonna stir all I can. Can't get fired 'cause my retirement papers are already in.
Got to get out and get busy while it's cool. Humidity was so high yesterday afternoon I couldn't do anything because my glasses kept filling up with sweat.

Shortround out

 

Morning Don, didn't see ya come in.

 

Morning, I didn't see me come in either. Got the caffeine flowing now. Sounds like you're working under the same mushroom I have been.

 

Seems like I didn't get to even visit last week let alone participate. SR, short timer, they're going to miss you when you're gone. Sounds like the opposite will not be true.

 

Mornin' all,

78*F and humid with 90s in the forecast for NW Houston, T-storms possible.
Chaiwka, good, thanks for getting it started.
ChrisR them tornadoes were bad in your neck of the woods. Many years ago, I took cover in a drainage ditch as one went thru Cleveland OH airport. Sounded like standing behind a jet engine at 100%. Scary. It took down the drive in screen across the road.

SR. keep up the good work. They will miss you when your gone. Last boss I had before I retired looked out for us grunts in the field that did the work. That was a welcome change. How is that sugar mill project doing?

Time to prepare the body for the trip to the blood bank to make a deposit.

Have a good un, and be safe out there.

 

Mornin DTR... Sorry I missed the last part of the week last week... gettin busy...

SR, Nice to see ya! Red, you too.

Rick, are you going to get a severance check?

Chaikwa... how are things? Ready for a new name yet?

Bout to eat some chow. Dunno what yet. See ya'll later.

 

Mornin, Davey...

 

Depends on what that name might be!

SR; thanks for noticin', but 'behind the scenes' is the only way I CAN work... if I show my face, ev'rybody jus' runs!

Scented candles and 'doylee's'? MadHat musta been here!
