Copper Creek Chit Chat, Part #4

[RickMc]

Doing driving tests hoping the storms hold off till 4.

You could always flunk 'em all immediately and get back inside where it's warm and dry!

fingers crossed for ya Drott.

Bye the way...hi, all. The move is utter pandemonium. I still have 150,000 square feet of material on the floor....racks are going up in the new half of the building, but not nearly quickly enough. The racking installers are falling behind. We are trying to move 28 trailer loads a day, and they're not consistently building rack ahead of us fast enough.

All this while we have to keep our normal day to day operations running as normally as possible.

I can't like that at all Rick. And can't imagine the frustration level. ugh.

Well, amid all the frustration, I'm really proud of my team. They have seriously stepped up, and are doing a great job given all the issues we have had with contractors and suppliers and such. And as usually happens in tough times, I am seeing some of the quiet, under-the-radar types distinguish themselves as stellar performers. I'm making lists of people who are going "above and beyond" and am planning some reward/recognition for them.

 

[FlyingV]

That is awesome Rick.

 

[FlyingV]

Darn, the roads here are wicked. Hope they get them cleaned up a bit before morning. How many days until Spring again?

True. We have until May before we can consider putting away snow removal stuff. drats.

Fresh pasta and home made sauce tonight. Yum!

 

[RickMc]

Possible snow until May is a bit much....

 

[punkinduster]

Good blustery morning. That's all I got...

 

[FlyingV]

Good morning!

We'll start camping in April, regardless. A little snow never stopped us from having fun.

Just fill up the camper drinking water lines with your favorite adult beverage and you won't have to worry about frozen pipes.

I like the way you think! We'd be showering it it as well if we fill the fresh water tank. hmmmm....

You better hurry. Looking at snow squalls and down in the teens tonight. If you stop by Drotts you gotta stop by our place too and Bamrz...

 

[FlyingV]

Darn it. If it's snow squalls and freezing temps, I might as well stay here.
