[3Hummers]

Put us to work, we will wrap your bundles faster or fill your trailer faster than you can blink. ( well not counting our breaks, lunches, work stoppages, etc )

those aren't so bad , it's the union meetings where everyone drinks a 6 pack that kill me ...
:giggle:

 

[Neo]

gotta admit it's pretty entertaining watching a bunch of drunks throwing logs at each other ... :wink:


for the newbies this is all joking , there are no drunks , don't want to scare you off ...

 

[alrock]

I think we need to build you a bundling turntable - three sides with the rebar sticking out. One side for stacking, another for wrapping, another for removing and stacking in the truck. It could be built out of an old cable wheel.

I know some guys that could deliver you the cable wheel

Oh yeah, the latest union contract says we get two 6 packs per worker per shift supplied by management. It makes those boring hours holding up the unfair labor practices signs more tolerable.

 

[Neo]

where's the damn door man when you need him , that car still would of been screwed ...


your idea sounds pretty good , Dave could stack , i'll wrap , and you could load ... then we could do our best Tom Sawyer and convince the newbies that it's a lot of fun and turn the operation over to them ...:wink:

 

[3Hummers]

Damn management always trying to screw the little man.

 

[Neo]

sometimes management is the little man ... :wink:

 

[3Hummers]

In that case post 357 is physically impossible.

 

[Neo]

believe me somehow i end up sticking it to myself all the time without even trying , i just saw ".357" and thought i needed to start shooting ...

 

[Chastan]

I still think that Neo needs one of these....

[Neo]

it would be nice those are real sweet :cheers:

 

[LagunaH1]

Uh, wait a minute! That's what Neo's day-laborers do.... The union might go on strike if he tries to replace people with machinery.

 

[Neo]

we've checked the supplies and are good on just about everything , Thanks to Jeff JR3t still lots of paper towels ... one thing we will need is Toilet Paper so if one of you Flops that live in the city could hit costco or ?? and pick up a case that would be great since our usual hookup won't be attending this trip . thanks in advance

 

[alrock]

I'll pick up TP and air freshener. Thanks for the report on the other supplies.

[Neo]

oh , the good old days ... :wink:

Nice find Frank :cheers:

 

[alrock]

Big news! We will have a raffle again for the October event. I've already had some great prizes donated and we'll line up a few more.

Proceeds will once again benefit Blue Ribbon Coalition (or another land use opportunity tbd)

 

[JR3T]

Don't count me out just yet. Still trying to see if I can get away for this trip. I'd say it is still 50/50. Don't want to miss two Octobers in a row.

 

[Neo]

hey Buddy !!! that would be awsome

 

[kflips]

Well I have been putting this posting off as not to Jinx things. Alex, please add me to the list!

It looks like I am going to make it back out to Moab this year. With our daughter in school my wife is staying behind this time and I am going solo. If the drive goes ok I will be there Sunday but driving by myself, if I have to make any extended stops it may be Monday. I will wheel through at least Thursday and possibly Friday.

Vacation request is signed off on so unless there is anything that blows up at work I am a go. I look forward to seeing everyone again and look forward to a great week of wheeling. I have not made the final decison on where to stay. I may camp it or I may get in at the one of the hotels.

Let me know if anyone needs anything from Wisconsin

Nice. Glad you will be making it out west

 

[3Hummers]

Jeff, hope you can make it buddy. Kflips, come on out and play, you won't regret it.

 

[Bigunit]

Kflips, if you commit to Moab in 2 weeks, I will reschedule everything on my calendar & will meet you there.

[JR3T]

Definitely 70(go)/30(stay and work) now. Gotta have priorities. A week with you all in Moab is hard to beat.

 

[Neo]
