This is my toolbox I haven't used in a very long time. I was going to sell it but it seems that after another year of vaping I may need the room.

I really want to sell my toolbox and get a Gershner, they are the American made version of the Harbor Freight wood chests. They are as much as a used car though... we can dream right??
Yup, I've seen them and they are gorgeous! Sort of the wood version of Sears' stackable tool boxes. I'd love to get a base unit... :)

Home from the rat race. Survived. Going to be catching he...ll for some thing I may or may not have done Tue or Friday. Like I remember every customer I Waite on.:lol: For sure a black mark.:lol::lol:
We may or may not be catching the same about a customer today. :( It was the third customer that walked in with a dog that I apologized to and asked them to take it outside. She claimed it was a service dog. Since it was being held belly up in her arms, I repeated "Service dog?" sort of as a question. She said yes it is, do you have a question. It sounded like a dare, so I got the supervisor, who repeated the request to take the dog outside. Long story short, the customer came up with paperwork signed by a Dr. (an orthopedist I think) that stated it was a mental health service animal. :blink:

The problem is, the dog was obviously NOT a trained service animal. The lady put her down on the floor to address her package, and the dog immediately went up to the nearest person and started sniffing and wagging its tail. :glare:

WTH are we supposed to do??? And I wonder if she gets away with taking her dog into the grocery store and restaurants with her??

I'd be so bored. I worked at a CNC shop for about a month, nearly lost my mind. The pay was great but I was going nuts. I quit and got a job hand painting carousel horses. Less than half the pay, but I loved that job.
And this is my day, multiplied 1200 times.

Bamrz, that is just wrong. People will try to get away with just about anything these days. UGH.

I was thinking I'd be much happier mentally if I could take Xena everywhere with me! :) And I bet if I looked long enough, I could find a Dr. somewhere dumb enough to write me a note that says so! :lol:

I think that Victor should be with me everywhere. I would be less likely to kill someone in the grrrrstore if he were there.

Usually I love it, most of the time I get the print, the metal and off I go. Pretty much always thinking, typing the program, but occasionally there are days like this... I have had a few jobs where it was slap the green button, run to the next machine, slap the button... basically trying to compete with China. It was BAD!!!! At least here I am challenged. As long as I get my overtime I am happy. I have a nice paycheck, Mrs G is happy, Mrs G is happy, we are all happy. It is as simple as that.

I didn't get to think, that was the problem. I was the lowly person that stood there babysitting a machine, measuring random parts. ack.
