For Darwen, and all who are interested here it is: I really like my new job. It's sunday night, and I'm actually excited about going back to work tomorrow. That hasn't happened in about 3 years. I like the building, although it's huge and Im going to get lost. I think it's 6 levels, but it might only be 5. The people are really nice, and ( Read more... )

Well, our visit with James is coming to an end. Hes been here since tuesday, and unlike normal we didnt try to pack 3 monts worth of stuff into his stay. It was very relaxed, spent a lot of time at home just playing games and relaxing with him. Hes really come into himself, with a great personality. Hes funny, and obnoxious like any other 5 ( Read more... )

I can sum up my Ohio run with a few funny quips ( Read more... )

Mohawk never ceases to amaze me. I was scheduled last night, or at least I thought so. Apparently my two weeks notice meant, "yes douche bag king, please fill all my shifts." So, I showed up at 1800, and so did Chrysler. It was fine, I made station dinner for everyone, and went home at 23:00...Didn't hurt my feelings. I just don't understand ( Read more... )

Well, another day of leaving Mohawk under my belt. Showed up this am and there was nowhere for me to go. King took me off the dispatch schedule, and put himself in my spot. Didn't have the decency to say anything to me, or write me in on the car schedule, or talk to any supervisors about it or anything. This is after I made it quite clear I ( Read more... )

I went today to sign all the hiring paperwork for my new job.  I still really like it there, and everyone I've met has been decent.  They sent me home with three folders of crap to read, most of it on insider trading and how you can and can not use company information to play the stock market.  Must have had an issue in the past.  I'm starting to ( Read more... )

Well, again as usual----I tried to make nice with my family, and Scott and I went over for dinner and a movie. My 17 year old brother, like usual, was a flaming douche bag, and wrecked the whole fucking thing. I cant wait until he's 18 and my parents throw his ass out of the house, so I can actually enjoy being over there again. EVERY TIME we go ( Read more... )

I realized something over this past weekend. Im getting Older. I was so excited about Dillon's Halloween party. Went costume shopping, got all dressed up. We headed over there around 9....With a select few exceptions, I really liked everyone who was there. Most people there I consider good friends of Scott and I. We decided I would drink, ( Read more... )

As I turn over a new leaf, and loose my day to day contact with my friends I figured here would be a good place to start. As most of you know, I have quit mohawk for what I see as a better opportunity. And as simple of a decision I felt it would be, I was very wrong. After 5 years, Mohawk isn't just a job, it's a way of life. I can't believe I' ( Read more... )
