whats does everybody here do for work?

Yikes!
That can't be fun, Donna...
Never?

I work myself out of a job on a regular basis... kind what I'm supposed to do...
Even though I get bucks on completion, it's always a downer to lose work!

Go out and look for temp work soon as possible!

I was one of the best autobody and frame repairmen in the business, till one day they fired the old manager and hired a younger one. The younger one said I didn't know what I was doing, so he trumped up some cockimamee story about me, saying I don't know what I am doing. I have been doing my job very well for 44 years. Found out the guy hired younger guy and is paying him less. The other day I stopped by the Chevy dealer I was working at, and they fired the young guy (manager) because they (the dealer) is getting sued for insurance fraud. I told them when I left that Karma was going to catch up with them soon, it took a little over a year, but they may have to close the dealership because of their bodyshop manager....... I used to make a living by; Your misfortune, is my fortune........NGE (T)

I was always self-employeed and raising 4 kids...that was work enough!
I am still attatched to the resort during my unemployment so I don't have to look for work. The dejunking is going well except the hunters are keeping me busy this week with all the cooking I am doing for them.

You might give Blythe Arizona a try, Dick.
Lots of snowbirds gather there each winter.
From what I've heard, they have a great time!

OK Steve, It looks like a triple to me... I suspect everything is power.

I spent time on BS rigs. A little time, that is... It was NOT fun.

Jo, That sure is a nice looking craftsman home. :thumbsup:

I think almost all I do anymore is whine about my bones and look at the MRI film. Can someone pay me for that? Sitting on blown discs at S1/L5, L5/L4 and L4/L3. Worked the first few weeks with the current injury but the doc threatened to drop me and deny therapy if I didn't take a leave from my lift truck, material handling gig.

Seldom lift over 100 lbs, unless getting out of my chair or bringing my head off the pillow counts. Sheesh there's a lot of people who do a lot of different things here these days.
