Hi capt... Speaking of suits, Fri I was sitting at a red light, this suit pulls up next to me, has his laptop open on the passanger seat, coffe cup in his left hand,cordless shaver in his right hand and an open magazine onhis lap.. Thought it was kinda funny. If he would have caused and accident I'm sure he would have blames someone else..

Sorry Cap, my weekend is done over with. But on the upside i may take off all next week and report in to the night shift thread by live remote from my house. Then I may work Christmas morning, I want too anyway. Sounds strange but i believe folks should be with theier wives and kids. Since I have neither I want to work that morning so my coworker can be with his wife and daughter.

I bet that would have made you lose a bit of color 
The worste I ever saw was a 7 car pile up with some poor guy on a motorcycle (who caused it) getting run over numerous times, finally a big truck finished him off, getting caught in his trailor duals 
it was, to say the least disgusting

Sat. for me will be double OT on top of Holiday pay, so actually triple pay. I think I can handle that for a day.
Anyway on Christmas my other coworker wants it for teh money, but the entire week afterwards we are still on the sme pay scale since the university shuts down but we still have to work. I am scheduled to work Mon. moring but I want to trade and work Christmas day so he can be at home with his family. My sister, bro. in law and nieces and nephew and mom and dad get together on Christams Eve, my moms side of the family gets together Christmas afternoon so for me to work Christmas morning wouldn't really disturb my holiday at all. Plus I coudl trade Monday for saturday and with the tie i may take off this week I will probably work 4 out of 14 days.
