So no more being in the dog house, our General will now be sent to the Cat House.

We've already discussed that with @Hulamoon. Bronze might get sent to the Catio, but he will not be The General's Wife is not going to send him to the Cat House.

Evening...Rained all day... I had an incident yesterday that could have been serious. A customer had just unloaded a stack of metal frames with a broken skid off the trailer. I stepped up to close the door, there was some broken wood pieces in the way. So I was pushing that to the side. Well the stack of frames weren't banded and they did a sliding fall back into the trailer. The top two hit the middle of my left leg between the knee and ankle. I fell back on the frames and my left hand was caught between them. I'd say they were over 250 pounds each. If I had just closed the door I would have been pinned. So I have a bruise on my leg and my arm. Along with a few aches from the fall. Could have been a lot worst.

But I have a Doctor appointment in the morning so I'm off work. Just my normal BP check..

Scruffy doesn’t look properly concerned about you there! Then again, he does seem to be impaled on a table leg and wondering when you’re gonna get that thing off of him!

Seriously, I’m glad you’re okay. :)

I'm marking this a winner, because it could have been a whole heckuva lot worse. Glad you got away "lightly" David.

file a claim even tho its just a few bumps and bruises... 2-3 weeks from now it could turn into something serious... a friend of mine had a 3" X 8' long pipe roll off of a flatbed and it hit him in the calf, left a semicircular bruise and left him with a slight limp for a few days, other than that he was fine for about 3 weeks... it developed a blood clot that got into his lung and he ended up having a stroke ( part of the clot broke loose from the lung and got lodged in his brain) which caused major brain damage. Since he didnt file a claim in time he got screwed big time... its those little not so important things that will get ya...

    There’s more reasons to stock up on your vape supplies.

    1) Some vape shops have been notified that CC companies will no longer process transactions. For at least one, the notice came midday and he was even unable to close the batch of transactions that did go through.

    2) One LTL shipper suddenly issued a policy of refusal to carry vape products. Pallets that were sitting there ready for shipping are now stuck.

    3) Some vape businesses have been dropped from their business insurance policies.

    4) One vape shop was just notified that their transactions will be processed, but they will have to pay a $500 per month fee and the first month’s fee will be deducted at the end of March.

    The crushing out of the industry is intensifying.
