good ol'work

So as may know United Rentals has bought out RSC for something stupid like 4 billion dollars or so. Anyways of course makes everyone little nervous about job security esp when they have double the employees in Sask. they have 8or9 tandems or semis in Sask whereas I only United. So there was a big townhall meeting where the 2nd highest person in all United came to tell us the 2 Stoon branches would be malgamated which great all seen this coming. Obviously a direct question was asked about layoffs and he went on spiel on how not a job would be cut if anything add more... So great that was 2 or so weeks ago but since Monday now 4 guys have been laid off. Lucky for me their intown semi drier was one of those 4. I'm still not exactly breathing easily and keeping a ear open for jobs. But in aying that other then this momentary stress do love my job guess see what transpires.


Oh we got a new Ford service truck tho

Wow, that`s just too close for comfort but I don`t think you`d be without a job for long.
Nice service truck.
