    Thanks, Gasifier,,,Several months ago they forced a pay cut on us, a big one. (the suits didn't take one). My boss made comment, when ask by another Technologist, "What if we resign immediately?", The Boss, "I have over 40 applications in my desk." ..
    Now about 6 week ago, they fired 2, and moved my partner to midnight shift, leaving me solo to cover CAT Scan, MRI, inpatient/outpatient and E.R.,,they've been killin' me. My work history is beyond reproach,,work is lean out there,,the "Corporatist" have taken over.
    LOL,,doesn't look like they'll make any money at all today with that equipment down there,,my bills are payed.

    Try putting chitkickers on! I hear the motor oil trick works well, if that doesn't work, throw an old tire in there too.:bug:

    I've got some old power pole and RR tie cut-offs? Think those would work?

    Not bad, really. It doesn't coal up near as much as oak does. As a matter of fact it burned some of the ashes that the oak left behind. It doesn't leave much behind.

    Just finished a small kitchen install. A Home Depot special , not a fan. The layout was not done well, the range and fridge should not be together like that, unless there is a panel separating them. Countertops next week, then I'm outta here.

    You guys with all this hedge talk. I finally looked up "hedge". It appears to be horse apple. If so, there's no hedge here in Wisconsin. Not unless it's planted in someone's yard.

    Is it spring yet? I've had enough of winter and being sick to last a lifetime! Missed day number five of work today, I wouldn't wish influenza on anybody! Let's hope I feel better really soon!

    Yeah that's ugly. No vent, that pendant light hanging in front of a window looks awkward and what are they doing with the dead space in the corner on the right?
