The interview went outstanding!! On the way there I got a call from another company for a job that I applied for last week. I am 90% percent sure that I got a job with Yancey Brothers and I have decided that I am going to stick with them. I will call the tire place tomorrow and tender my resignation.

I was just reading up on Yancy. I knew they had been around along time, but did not know they were the nation's oldest Cat dealer.

I didn't know that. I know I need to read up on them. I took this test online for them that shows management potential and I aced it. I am sure I am going to hear back from my recruiter tomorrow. I'm super excited now, I was starting to get worried since no one was calling me back.

Getting ready to take a mechanical aptitude test online, I looked at some pretests and I think my brain cells are already smoking.

Took a minute and ordered the fuel pump for the boat from summit racing. Glad that is finally on the way so I can get it going again. Hopefully it will be here quick and I can fix it over the weekend. Get that thing done and then focus on the 79 again.

Wife is on the way back from town with dinner so I am going to wait to do the test after dinner and when things are calm around the homestead.
