Sarge i've got about another 1.5 years til i get my degree, then i gotta find a job.

This morning brings no better news, store manager said im crazy for wanted as much time off as i want and its not going to be possible and so on, i dont even want to think about it right now. I'll be home alone while everyone else is away on vacation.

Also my 97 is leaking oil, checked the level before i left work and its almost down to the ADD line, so i guess i gotta throw another quart in and get it to the shop to see whats going on.

Should snag a security night job. Perfect for college, can do your HW right at work on slow nights.

Good morning everyone.

So gas was down at $3.54 the other day and then yesterday I noticed it's back up to $3.89; a 35c jump in 24 hours. Must be because I need to fill-up now. Typical.

Working from home today and finishing laundry and a few other things. Last full day at home before my ninth Mexico "tour" starts tomorrow. Fun times... *sarcasm*. I can say it's a great experience but I'm about ready to have my normal life and schedule back anytime now.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Mornin' Everyone! Cold out here in the Flatlands!

Put a new gas cap on the '98 LS 3.1. Didn't drive it but a mile & the
"Service Engine Light" went off! Now the wife won't complain "there's something
wrong with the car & I don't want to drive it..." LOL!

Hi `Keane,

Sorry again 2 read about your work & life problems
I've learned that the more that you have in life means the more that
you have to take care of & worry about. + the cost
Having 3 cars is expensive to maintain/insure/license/etc.
Maybe you bit `off more then you can handle ?

I know that I had to sell my Monte to pay for college & life expenses
I don't have many material possessions, but my bills are paid.
I'm still saving for another ride
I've learned that I want to own my next ride & not have my ride
own me...It's not fun having a ride that you love, but don't have
the $'s to mod or take a road trip. Vehicles can be very expensive 4-Sure
====================================
Work is work & if you work for someone else, they set the rules.
You either follow their rules, or you leave or get fired.
If you are a good/reliable employee (?) they will want to keep you, &
if you are not, they will let you `go.
If you are not happy with your job ?, I'd keep doing your best, but
use your free time to seek other employment.
Until then, I would keep doing the best that you can `do.
Leave on a positive note. Future employer's check your past
employment & references are very important 4-real.







=======================================

Maybe being Home alone will give you the oppurtunity
to think about your future & revise your plan or make a new plan
on how to get to where you want to `be. It easier to get to where you want to `be `if you have prepared your Road Map.
With a plan or road map it's 2 easy to get lost in life or get
to where U really wanta `be

You have to be the driver of your life to get to where you
want to `be 4-Sure...No one but you can `do that.







Wish you the best Keep a positive attitude & keep working

honest & hard. Giving `up to get is never easy, but `if you
want to get (?), always do the very best that you can
GOOD LUCK
------------------------------------------------------
You're Welcome `Lou (Taz)
Hi Mod `Mike, Sarge, Chris, `Devin, Mark, Matt, Marquet, `Joe, `Tadd,
& Member's....Thanks for checking in & making a post.
Wish everyone a safe/happy new day..
Don't 4-Get 2 EnJoy your `Present
4-Sure
