Good morning Crew. Well, last day of the month, and for the quarter, in the business world. Work will have me shackled down today and it won't let up til 5:00pm. My company has a new president who is all about the #'s and time standards that everyone has to meet-or get fired. When I started working for the company, (13 1/2 yrs ago), it was a great place to work. Now, with the new management, the economy, and other factors, it is consistantly getting worse. Here's an example...Since they don't want to reward the "excellent workers" with time off or money compensation, they actually thought (and said) that they had the idea of an employee of the month and have their picture posted in the building. What a joke. Somedays, I think my days are numbered there. Since I am assistant shop steward, the manager doesn't like me, and his boss doesn't like me either. I know that they wish that there wasn't a union in place. This way, they could just do everything they want, which would include firing the higher paid, longest time there, older, and slower employees. It just sucks! They really don't give a .... about the people who do the actual work. Anyways...sorry about the rant. I was just thinking about how my day will probably be, and it just got me ticked off and feeling like I'd love to take another day off. Since we only get 5 sick days a year, (and I only have about 2 left), I guess that I will be headed in today. Hope everyone else has a good day! I'll stop by later after the train from hell drops me home.

Thanks Whis. I just wish that they realized ALL the good, hardworking, and dedicated employees that they have. They've just let 3 people go in the past 3 weeks for their "various" reasons. 2 of them didn't want union help. 1 of those claimed that it is just "too stressful" everyday. He was just wondering when they were going to finally let him go. The 3rd person was just let go yesterday. She was 58, and had been there for 14+ years. She was always on time, but just was not up to their "standards", as far as being able to keep up with the newest "faster" pace. It sucks! At least we got her something of a "package". She accepted it quickly, because she also figured that it was just a matter of time for her too. We only have about 34 workers in a big warehouse that serves the entire U.S. and territories. This 34 people have to receive, ship, pick, stock, print, package, process returns, and process mail in repairs, and probably a few other things that I can't think of right now. The company even thinks that we can function properly with even less. See ya later.
Yeah, if all these CEOs and owners can't buy another yacht they really have to cut costs. It makes me sick sometimes.
Wow! I guess I picked a bad morning to stop in and say hey. lol Don't even get me started on unions.

I know it has been said many times and will be said many more times, but I want to thank you, Don, personally for your wonderful product. Anytime I try other juice, I always use yours as the gold standard for comparison. Thank you again for my holy grail of e-liquid
