Morning, Russ.
No. He’d end end up with a Titleist/Taylormade enema.

I realize that my not going in is cutting off my nose to spite my face, but I wasn’t going to go in and see him wander around spewing his bullshit in an O/T situation after what happened yesterday. Unfortunately I’m not in any position to say anything.

Hah! But I know better. You seem pretty fit. Start with 20 a day and work your way up to 100. I bet your back problems diminish.

But that's assuming there's no serious degenerative issues. Some things need surgery unfortunately.

Padding time by hourly employees is usually frowned on by management.

Chuck, i may have asked before but...have you ever seen a GOOD Chiropractor? A lot of people don't believe in them , some are quacks. Mine has kept me going for over 30 years.

Unless you're a union trades shop. Most miserable year of my life was working at a factory that made truck frames for the big three as a sub-contracted electrician. We had two shifts of 15 guys. I was told that I could not install more than 20 feet of conduit a day. It was very hard to find ways to look busy for the other 7.5 hours. I finally got my self kicked off by finishing a job in one morning that I was told to spread out over 2 weeks. Just couldn't take it anymore.

Morning all.

Playing with a drone sounds like fun Russ. Sadly we are in a no fly zone. Drones are illegal to fly here unless you bypass the internal software.

Mark is fully aware of the situation but chooses not to say anything for some reason. Brian the foreman is just too lazy to say anything.

Miserable. My year at the Beech factory was similar. I was told not to coach the employees so I stood there one day as a guy installed a new weather radar and I watched him splice 50 wires, not putting a single heat shrinkable insulator on any of the splices in spite of my hints. Their crew chief was mad. He tried yelling at me but I explained to him that I didn’t work for him and they set the rules so he could get….well, you know the rest.
