Dave1291 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 I hired someone to teach me spread sheets. Naturally there was a master plan for the plant and it was alllll his. Gave him a pager and told him he had 3 minutes to respond by phone from anywhere in the plant or he was gone. He told me I was like a kid playing with a loaded gun. We had a good laff over that so every time I'd pass him in the plant I'd shoot myself in the head w/my finger gun. Worked every time. Tons of laffs. Corporate thought I was genius. hahaha Then poof I was gone. He's still there raping the corporate wallets. 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 isn't that one of Murphy's Laws there is one person, in this place, that knows what is going on... they must be fired Good Morning all. Didn't do anything exciting yesterday. Took the Sony AVR out of the doghouse system and put the Yamaha back in... I know...it's been a couple days that I had it home. No reason to be in the doghouse. Wife is out of town. I get to listen to the home system... when I like, w/i reason. Found a couple CDs at the WhiteElephant the other day. Steve Winwood Roll With it Jethro Tull Benefit Black Crows Spent a total of $4. I had to apologize to the cashier. All I had for cash was a $100 bill and wiped out their drawer 20 min after they opened. Oh well! They had a bunch of Toad the Wet Sprocket CDs... but, even for $1ea, I didn't buy any. I will take a chance on things I've never heard. Not this time 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I try not to look. Seemed it was $4.79 in Tucson. It's around $4.95 here. We are out in the middle of nowhere. Transport does factor in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 The price of oil and ultimately gas is determined by supply and demand economics, and is set on a world market. Some like to forget that simple fact when their emotions overrun their brains. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
