Folks just need time to decompress
And from my personal experience the people who made the decisions all were able to enjoy their holidays and family.
It still eats at me 23yrs. later

At the power plant. Nothing changed for the holidays. But management always took extra days off. :shakes head: We would call them in the middle of dinner just to mess with them. Ask a bunch of stupid questions. Get their permission to do something. :rofl2:

Rusty,
How’d that test turn out ? I’m just assuming it was negative since you’re at the dealership.

I'm still waiting for the results. :shakes head: I'm outside away from everyone.

Working for the county, if it rained or there was a melt off you knew you were going to work for 24hrs. but you were still going to get time off. Unlike JL’s situation, a planned shut down, the folks ( I’m sure ) we’re making plans

Exactly. A lot of people save PTO for planned shutdowns. I also can pretty much guarantee that the only high level people who will be here are myself and the Director of Manufacturing, which is poor long term planning. VP's don't understand the need to work in the trenches if they're going to ask sacrifices of their staff.

I still say we should get a dedicated Z discord group going for all the nsfw comments.

That’s life in O&G everyday

There is one. It’s the premium version of this thread, but hardly anyone posts in it.

Found out what's wrong with the Jeep. :icon14: They have to drop the fuel tank, and replace a hose (cracked) and a solenoid. The hose is preformed, and they have neither on hand. Both have to be ordered. :icon14:

Made it home at 11:45 :driving:

New trailer is pretty nice. Little longer than my old one, 20' deck with a 5' tail. Huge ramps that fold flat to make use of the tail too :tup:

Good afternoon y'all.

I advertised a custom e brake handle in the for sale section for $275.00 shipped. If any of the lounge lizards in this thread want's it, I'd sell it for $250.00 shipped.
