...drove the 914 to work today...perfect weather here in Jersey...this was a very long work day with her waiting for me out there in the parking lot.

I'd rather be driving or wrenching.....oh yeah, or coaching my kids at a softball game....

The only thing that keeps me going is the bottom line in my signature.

Yeah I drove it yesterday and today. The weather is just so nice I had to. I don't like having it in traffic but man it's nice. I haven't put the top back on in over a week now. Hope no one walks ups and pisses on my seats (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)



But yeah work is pretty tough right now. I am the network engineer, video editor and graphic designer. They give all the high end projects to me because I seem to be the only one who cares about the quality. Add to that they are opening a video rental store and they need me there to setup a POS network and teach these guys how to do it. Add to that we are getting new High definition equipment and a gigabit network and servers to support this new demand. I don't just have a plate full, I got the whole table.

Oh yeah, we are finally getting nice weather here and I finished the tranny swap on my teener late last night so I got to FINALLY drive her to "work" w/the top off. Smooooth shifting. Got a thumbs-up from a topless Mercedes (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

have had 15% of staff leave lately. same all over in my industry. too many jobs and not enough bodies. all we can do to stay above water.

time to go out and fix that oil leak at the pump now.... something to show at the end of my labors rather than another pile of stromberg.....

cheers!!!!

Today I screwed with the intern and asked him if he really wanted a job in my field (geology). Where else would I go to work in a tie one day and get sweaty/dirty/greasy the next? (I prefer sweaty/dirty/greasy, which is why I like old cars). Now I gotta check for ticks...
