The company i work for is greedy as well, place is open 364 days a year and our holiday discount coupon they used to give out of 10% has now been dropped to 5%. And aside from a paycheck that's all i ever get from that place, and i'll be working all this week too. With the hurricane we had here it really screwed up school, i've got so much work due sunday night its a freakin impossibility. Going to have to just do what i can, cut my losses and move on...

Speaking off things closed for the Hoildays. I'm old enough to remember when NOTHING was open on Sundays at all. Maybe a gas station. When I worked at G.M. I worked every Hoilday I could. Except Christmas & new yrs. Hoilday pay was triple time. Or as they put it. Double time plus 8 hrs. So if your making $ 26.. an our 3 time that for the same thing you do everyday . Guess who's going to be there. Only reason we didn't work Christmas and new yrs. Was the Plant was closed. And we got paid for 40 hrs anyways. But I can understand them want to be open. Think about each store that open for Black fri!! If you knew how much they make for that one day. You wouldn't care how many employee's didn't like it. It a big sum of ca$h. But since I retired..I don't work any hoildays any more. Now its not worth it to me!

On a different note. I'm watching the grandson today. He wanted to go to Burger King for lunch. Cause he like their oinion rings. So I take him there and he's all over them Oinion rings. Eatting them like its his last ones on earth. So later I tell him about the Oinion Rings I like at Sonic's. So we just got back from there with 2 large orders of Onion rings and told him about dipping them in ranch dressing. The BOY"S IN LOVE . Man he cracks me up... GOOD kids to hang around with. Cause he's no scared to try anything once. Most kids or his sister would have said some thing different! Ok gotta go Him & I are running up to the store. NO not for more food. To get my Lotto Tickets. OK C ya all later.......

Afternoon all. Been really busy, a lot of stuff going on. I seen the new caprice police car last night. It looks pretty cool. My city just got there first one and my buddy was driving it. He said it has pretty good power and handling.
