I think my manager realized today how much time I usually spent at the warehouse. I got home at a little after 5pm this evening, after Ive been made to leave work after 8 hours. At 5:30, my phone rings. We've been having a lot of issues with one particular project. Wrong parts ordered, the job keeps changing necessitating different parts, etc. Its been a serious pain in the backside keeping it straight. After spending an hour on a conference call with two local tech, my manager, the engineering manager, and our National Ops Center in Denver, We finally figured out a partial and temporary solution. Then my manager told the tech to "go to the warehouse and see James. He will show you what you need and walk you through the procedures to get what you need." "Um... Boss man... Im not at the warehouse." "What? Why arent you at the warehouse? Where are you?" "Andy, Im at home. I have to leave at 4:00, remember?" "Oh, sh!+."

Its been a rough day.

Sure it can. It was fun. Hopefully tomorrow I won't break as much stuff. :laugh: I'm experimenting....


Yuck James, just yuck. I could not do your job, I'd kill someone....
Does the first statement scare anyone else here??? Anyone???


Except for the stupid crap thats coming down from Douche Canoe, I really enjoy the job. There is plenty to keep track of so my mind doesnt atrophy. Im moving a lot through the day. I dont get bored. And for the most part, I can do my job with little or no direct supervision.

I'll bet i did...Your're so young you may not believe it but cars didn't always have air conditioning....t was the pits to go on long trips.

I've worked on and driven plenty of those old cars from model a and up. But it wasn't THIS hot 20yrs ago and I could handle it better too. Going from an air conditioned office to a 30+ min drive at 107 degrees is a shock to the system.

I do not do well without air anymore either. Funny, I grew up without it, my first 3 or 4 cars didn't have it, but just try to get me in a car without it now. Not going to happen. I just don't think I take the heat as well as I used to.
