I'm tired and have to go to work in a little bit. The thing that sucks is two guys got fired last week. One for his second DWI offense,,,insurance dropped him so my boss dropped him from the company. The other guy was fired for being an arrogant a$$hole and a thief.
I hope (Chris) Dan Thurs friend gets hired. Because I have to help take up the work load until we hire a new guy.
The thing that really really sucks is the first guy to get fired is a good friend of mine and was a really good worker.
my rant...

Been raining non-stop here for three days. Limits the outdoor play activities during my holiday break/vacation, and makes me wish I never sold my boat!

You can borrow my boat if you want? It'* a 12ft with a 3hp engine on it. Does pretty good in low water. Even has a trolling motor.

The boat I had and miss was a Wooldridge 19' SUV. It had a Kodiak 350 and a three stage jet pump. That boat would do 55 mph on the water and could run on step in 6" of water. Sold it to go back to school and finish my degree.

Sorry to hear about your friend being fired... very tough time for anyone to lose a job. You stated he is a good worker. In today'* computer driven hiring environment, a good ole letter of recommendation hands delivered with a resume often makes a huge impact.

You must live in central/south Florida. We haven't had crap for hurricanes in the panhandle the past 3-4 years(the entire time I've lived here)

I'm hating the weather right now. It'* cold with no snow. That'* the one main thing I hate about the south, no snow. I'd love to be in MO right now. 9* and 6 inches of fluffy snow.
