Work

[gush]

I normally enjoy my job. Great company, great benefits and great co workers but there are occasions where I'd rather stay home.........today is one of those days.

3 degrees with 17 below wind chill here in SE Iowa and I'll be working outside most of the day.

Truck scale down probably needs a new load cell.

Friday looks like snow for our area but I'll be inside at FedEx so that's ok but today is going to suck.

Stay warm folks.

Yuck

Home is where the guitars are.

Home is where the guitars are.

And fortunately I work from home, about 15 feet from my guitars. Close enough to walk to whenever I need a break (i.e., a fix), but not close enough to reach over and grab one when I get the urge (which is most of the time.) Hmm... I feel a break coming up.

Personnally, i hate my job, hate my employer, the benefits suck, and i would rather stay home too. On the bright side i have been looking for other jobs, so have that going for me. Hopefully when i get a new job they will approve time off to go to Experience in May, and mexico in July

I've been working from home all week, expecting a NGD delivery. So far it's been a snow go

I like retirement.
I get to look at when the deep freeze is coming and choose to go somewhere warm, or hibernate by the fireplace. I think this round, I’ll have a big dinner and hibernate.
Sorry Sergio, no new guitar next week.

Wow, stay warm!

+1 on this concept... I am adjusting to the retired life just fine. Every time I hear someone having to work in the cold (or heat, or any other bad scenario) I feel more blessed to have finally reached the "work when I wanna" phase of life. Huge level of respect to all who are still out there doing what's needed to get food on the table, a roof over the head, and a PRS in the stand.

Oh and we have the reverse temperature on the Gulf Coast today... 71. Brutal.

I do love the work that I am doing right now. During my school years I made a wrong decision and pursued an education as electrician while I should have chosen for mechanics. Dropped out of school and started working as a lorry driver. After my emigration to Sweden I got the opportunity to work as a mechanic/constructer. Working on forestry machinery/heavy equipment and working with metal like milling, cutting and welding. Work feels like a hobby and get paid for doing it as well. All the tools you will ever need at my disposal. Location is 600m from my house as a bonus so technically I can walk to get to work.

Oh, you silly northerners.

I'm in this boat, too. Oddly, I don't take the time to play, which I should. The Mrs being around all the time is cramping my style!

I hate my employer, too. Unfortunately, I’m self-employed.

Tell him do buy you a drink!

He just did! Not only do I hate him, my wife agrees!

“But you’re sleeping with the Boss’ wife.”

“That doesn’t necessarily mean I’m having a good time.”

My boss has the temperament of a f@cking toddler!

At least your boss is cute and cuddly.

At least your boss is cute and cuddly.

Pretty much the major reason why I don’t quit.

I pray you have a place inside to poop.
