Exclamation Work!!! Here we go again

It was just to easy I guess! We just finished a 10 million dollar expansion about a year ago and have finally reached the point where things were settling down and becoming normal. The machines were running fine the bugs had all been worked out and it was really getting pretty simple to do my job . Well I should have known it wouldn't last, was notified today that they approved a new 4.5 million dollar project for us. It will include replacing machines on 5 lines as well as our final packaging line, some building expansion and a lot of building reconfigurations. The good news is they said we had 3 months to get it all done and up to full speed by April. So here we go again!!!

Looks like 7 day weeks again eh? Just park the truck in your parking spot, sneak out the back door and come back to work every few ours or so and yell at a few people. That should get you by for a while. lol

Sounds like alot of work. Thats the down side. The up side is that there is a major bunch of stuff going on in the big city and that means jobs and some level of security as far as a pay check and truck parts. The tough part will be finding time to enjoy it. Good luck with it all Rollie.

I'm in good company then.

I figure the next 6 months are going to be hell at work. Lots of overtime with short deadlines. Last year was bad but this one is going to be worse. Hopefully, yours will go quickly and smoothly.
