Hi Space - Yes, I always were protective gear even though it's miserably hot sometimes. I just bought new pants that are basically a mesh material with armor inside for protection. Allows quite a bit of air flow as long as I'm moving. It's sitting at lights that's a killer. My summer jacket is ok, but still pretty hot. I need to get the mesh jacket that goes with my pants. Lots of folks around here ride with shorts / t-shirt. Not me; not worth the risk. I'd rather be hot and wearing all my skin...

And yes, my son loved the school. It's now #1 on his college wish list. We're trying to get him to find a few other schools to choose from just in case he doesn't get his first choice.

 

Afternoon all!!
hows everyone doing?

 

Good Afternoon Everyone!

I hope hump day is going well for you all.

Justin, good luck with the job! I hope it works out well for you.

 

I hear you on that, my drive to work is only 6.4 miles Afternoon all, sunny here. School and work today, our manager is taking a few days off from work so now our 2nd in charge is taking over. They have 2 very different managing styles, it shall be a bit interesting

 

JUSTIN: You & I were posting at the same time this morning. After i posted I went to bed. I just woke up and read your post. HEY thats great if you get in. At $ 17.35 to start WOW! Thats not bad money! Gotta take some bad to get the goods. My fingers are crossed for you Justin

 

Good afternoon all!

Rick, sorry I didn't catch up with you at Car Craft, was proudly wearing my MCF shirt! Hope we can meet up again soon!

Justin, good luck with the job, hope it works out for you & stay out of the smelting pot ;-)

Time to head home and enjoy the heat.

 

YUP. Keane I go thru that every week. But both of my managers are pretty cool dudes. They work 4 on 4 off. So we get them both. I've had managers that I wanted to strangle. And I've had some managers that were so layed back & cool. It was a pleasure to go to work.

 

HEY Ron . Maybe if my 2 friends from MI were a little faster. I could have met up with you & Justin. These two guys are worst then 6 women when their shopping. Geeez. They were here 3 yrs ago and went to the MOA. I didn't go with them. But they left my house at 8 am & got back at 11 pm. And they never left the place. Maybe one weekend we could meet up at Anoka and walk around there and look at all the Hot Rods. We'll have to park in the garage. But who cares. Or maybe i'll bring my Chevelle and we could cruise. You have my e mail address ? Ron & Justin your always welcome to stop by my place. Maybe we could meet up and go get a burger together some place some saturday. Let me know. I'm up for that and maybe a photo shoot!

The road is my escape from stress [/quote]
Tadd: I know what your saying. I rode my Harley's for over 35 yrs. And that was my stress relief. I would get on that bike and just GO. Come back a few hrs later and I was in better place.

 

[quote=Space;480927]Hi Everyone,
==========================================
Hi `Rick, do you have any regrets about going back to work ? Do you like your working conditions..I'm sure that you will adjust to working nights again...Wish you a relaxing fun day...Thanks 4 checking in
============================================
No Space i have no regrets going back to work. It gets me out of the house for a couple of days. Plus a couple of the guys are old ( bikers) so we have a lot in common. And that makes it NICE. No Hot Rodders just wantna be's . The working conditions are ok. The main thing is cool guys & girls to work with and its all Air conditioned. Some of the girls take a break outside. WHY? Its 60 percent humidity out there I like my job and 99 % of the people I work with
