just about everyone I work with know that I may cuss them, call them what ever, insult them, yell, say mean things, but at 5:00, I have no problem going and having a beer with them.
Work is work, doesn't mean we cant be friends.

My General Manager and I have the same understanding.. Known the man for 20 years. He used to be my boss and now I'm his.. We have had our share of disagrements but at 5:00 work stays at work. The guys in the warehouse wouldn't have a beer with me if they had too

I must say I have never cursed directly at an employee.. Now behind closed doors I have all but thrown a chair threw my patio door

I'm sure I've been the conversation at my present and past bosses dinner tables many times, especially with my sick mind and sense of humor. I can admit at least twice i've had my boss talking to himself after having a conversation with me, poor guy didn't know what he was getting into by chatting with me! Best thing to pull on him was the "Boss, I won't be in tomorrow, I have other plans" I would say this on a friday afternoon (my shift is M-F days. He'd get so confused and flustered for about a half hr trying to find a replacement for me and then realize tomorrow was saturday.

Anyways, G'night DTR. Hope Everyone has a happy friday.

Coffee's ready for the early birds. Heard some strange noises in the closet after making rounds. By the time I could check, nobody was there. Smelled like must, wet, sweaters in there though.

Nothing weird about it. In fact, I'm surprised you haven't figured it out yet. Claude tries to be something he's not: stupid! Do you really think he could have done all he's accomplished in his life, owned businesses and managed corporations, if he was the moron he tries to pass himself off as? I don't.

Information? What do you know that anyone else could possibly want? The whole 'sheep thing' either comes naturally or not at all, so it can't be that!

Strange!

Morning all!

And Chaikwa is alive and well because of it. You knew somebody was going to mention it.


(This may also explain a few of his sheep issues)

It may have been Blake.. I understand he's a closet sheep lover. Been trying to get him to admit it for awhile.

People are staying away from here least they get lumped in with you lonely shepards.......

Rainy morning here, hubby replacing bearings in the lawn mower unit (pulled behind a 1969 cub cadet that lost it's mower deck years ago but runs like a champ)

Claude is a secret millionaire (money in mattress type) who has someone else type for him depending on the shift schedule. sometimes it is the local elected official who was rewarded for voting for the Michigan govenour...... who is being considered for an Obama appointment.

Claude is a hands-on leader. missing letters = missing fingers
(ain't that right my friend? please know I am busting your chops)


Matt, ya sound a little blue, and not a paint color either...feel good about the day to day stuff. Love, Mom

Eric, just go to your room. Mom

Got to get rid of some paperwork; feel like I am forgetting something....

Heidiwho has tried to stop cursing like a sailor.....

Mornin' All!

65* and clear skies again. My yard needs a rainstorm or 2.

Had a busy night last night. Mama wanted thew shed moved..... Wish I'd had a camera availible last night. Would have had some good pics. I put a 6x12 shed on a 4x8 trailer. Might have been just a bit over gross...... oh well.

What's the chance there is another sandwich and some milk?......
