Can you believe this? I hired 2 new guys this week. I guy started Thursday and by end of day he was back at the soup kitchen or wherever the trainwreck decided to go. Tells prior to coming in that he is journeyman etc,, turned out he was really slooooow and not that talented. BUT here is the kicker,,,around 10 a,m I happened to be alongside him and the dude reeked of beer. Not day old hungover type but a fresh beer. Other worker noticed also when we compared notes. Bye bye
Friday talking to a buddy in Seattle who knew of guy said at prior place he was "talked" to about drinking on jobsite. A little knowledge too late.
Have a great weekend gang

Interesting, you would think in today's economy where jobs are scarce, people would do whatever it takes to keep their job, not lose it.

Looks like I will be getting a '91 Ranger to replace the Bronco, better mpg, and quads fit in the back

Good Evening Nor Cal.
Yea working gets in the way of drinking. I heard one the other day. If your a drug addict or alcoholic that is using or drinking, you get dental, eye, & completely free medical under Obama Care. If you are clean & sober you don't qualify for eye & dental. of course not working. I heard this from a very reliable source.

And if you are a veteran you get free medical if you are not working.

The 91 Ranger was sold two days ago, so I couldn't get it. Well, I wouldn't have been able to get it anyway as I have not sold the Bronco yet.

Haha. No code. Me and the other groomsman that made it are huge hunters and not huge drinkers, so we kept everyone pretty squeeky clean and in the woods as much as possible.
