how about, staying with in the same 175 feet for two weeks at a time. Only talking to 24 people, and not stepping on dry land? Would that make people go crazy too?

I see how it would never end. It's like Blinker fluid, and the two tranys.

I'll be doing labor work.I'm a union laborer, do pretty much anything though. I've been a laborer, carpenter and equipment operator all in the same day. It sounds like the first job I'll be doing is demo work.

That is why I went out Wednesday and put in 5 applications and had made a list to hit 6 more places this coming week. I had a job lined up for the summer, doing highway work, but the hours are killer. I like to spend time with my family in the summer and working 60+ hours a week (not including the 10-20 hours driving/week) just doesn't leave time for that.

I hope I like the job Nick, it is in the field iprefer to work in, commercial building. Typically 5 8 hour days, Saturdays and OT as needed.

It's pretty much the same job I did for the last 3 years, just with a different company.
Hopefully they have enough work I don't get laid off in the middle of June like last year.
