No, my boss was one of the good guys, put me in a higher paying position where I'd be out of sight of the top guy, and had no more contact with upper management. Got taught how to use a mig welder there, more to my liking, too.

G'Evening, Woods. I hate hearing about conditions in workplace and corporate B/S. I hated it 30+ years ago and I can't imagine what it's like now. 28 yrs ago, I Said "A M F" and never regretted it.

Gonna keep the best thoughts for you John. Years ago, on a Thursday, Kristi took me to a neurosurgeon who wanted to operate on my back the next Monday saying I'd be out of commission for 6 months. I asked him if shouldn't we explore non-invasive options first? He was certain I needed surgery for all of my herniated discs at L1-L5. Well here we are some 15 or so years later and still no surgery. I have resolved that if I ever lose mobility, we'll discuss it but not before.

I lost mobility before the first surgery. He didn't want me going back to work, but I thought I could handle it. I'm still glad I did, but I'm going to listen to him this time

Hey, Russ and John.
Tough news about your back, John.
Nice looking fridge, Russ.
