That's where I'm at today too. I did some good work this week and I'm pretty much all finished with everything. I have one more BOM that I can start costing for our customer, but it's ugly with old obsolete parts and my motivation to find current replacement parts is low. I'll pick through it and cost out the easy stuff, then Monday I'll tackle the problem parts.

The only race I have is with myself.

I'm never content to settle or coast... sometimes I wish I could.
Oh I experience that from time to time but now I realize that perspective is super important. I’m in a good place for my circumstances and I’m progressing forward, that’s all that matters to me.

I spent 3 weeks going over work scope for upcoming maintenance events at the plant. We scrutinized every single piece of equipment and ultimately reduced the work scope to just the bare bones of what needs to be done. Handed it over to the team managing the work. They got in a room with the operations department, the people in charge of running the plant, and they put damn near every single piece of equipment back into the scope saying it needs to be done without actually giving any justification for it.

I fucking give up. Complete horseshit. This place is run by retards.

Those are the best looking hand scraped I've seen. Wide planks and that finish look great.
Thanks! The manufacturer added that stain for the first time ever because of our request. They are flexible about custom requests for stains but they have permanently added this spec to their lineup! My wife's suggestion.

I don't usually follow curriculums, prefer to taylor it to the needs and skill levels of the students. Thankfully thats done, and today was a 12hr doozy. Thankfully I'm taking tomorrow off to recoupe but will need to work Saturday.
I'm not a fan of training, either. Over the years I've been volunteered to train new employees on our computer system because I've been told I have the patience and temperament for it. :yeahok: It's as much that as nobody else wants to bother doing it. :rolleyes:

That looks like it's from Need for Speed: Most Wanted.

That game was my favorite.
NFS Underground 2 was the best.

Hey buddy, no problem. Its the email service that starts to cost but in my case it is corporate so I write it off, $50/yr is reasonable for all of that. When I get a chance, i will start building a website too.

Sent my first communication to a possible customer. Acting quickly and professionally was worth the cost.
If you need help with web development, I used to be a freelancer back in college. Haven't coded in a while, though.

I have a pimple or ingrown hair coming in on my ass. Hurts real bad. It's just outside of where I sit, but if I shift my weight to the right side I can put some pressure on it and feel it.

:thisisfine:
I told my boss this was going to happen and we were wasting our time until we had a list of things the operation team absolutely needed done for this event. He said that it's not our problem and it'll come to surface eventually at a higher level in the company.

Did they give it a name to commemorate you, something like Surf Brown, perhaps?
