Just checking in.
Congrats Justin on the news of work man.
I just called a place looking for people and they said that i am too old ( just not in so many words ). They are looking for people out of school cause they are trying to have a "YOUNG" image. It seams that they dont care if the a 43 year old guy is perfect for the position and would be a loyal employee. They just want kids with those stupid looking hair cuts ( the ones that look like you just got up out of bed and were to lazy to brush your hair ) and then move on the first change the get.
Do employers not realize all the money they are loosing because of these practices? They are spending time and money to train kids just so they can move on with something else. They need to hire the 40+ people with years of experience and loyalty and actually build a stronger company.
End Rant.
Sorry, but its the truth.

Seriously JJ, that's messed up. Too many employers are overlooking good people simply because of their age. Seems to me a guy with a family is more likely to be loyal and dedicated to the job. When I was in school, I looked at my job as something temporary to hold me over until I get the job I really want.
03JGMonte, nice job on the Monte's headlights, and the Cavi's taillights. You gotta get some Goo Gone or something to get the remnants of the sticker on the trunk though. Kinda takes away a little from the nice job you did on the taillights.

You got that right. So many companies are so worried about public image, they forget that there are people that DONT fit the norm, but yet are better whats needed then even they are.

looks nice mike
not much going on here, been snowing very lightly all day, got mabe 3/4 of an inch of fresh snow. im thinking i might go inspect the blizzacks i got free that are mounted on my extra wheels & if they are not dry rotted i might throw them on the front of the monte for a lil advantage, 'caus the roads suck, i guess no one knows how to operate the sander around here.
and im totally freaked out about my usual road i gotta travel on, after driving on it for 18years being very narrow, winding and having trees right on the shoulder, i was at a point i felt i could drive down it with my eyes closed. but they are planning to widen it and have loped back a good 30+ feet on both sides, and it just feels wrong, lol. worse yet, i had one of the moron macheine operators swing the bucket & boom on his excivator out across the lanes and i almost plowed into it... no flagmen, no warning signs, no flares, and the guy never even looked over his shoulder to make sure the road was clear. gotta love PA....
