NWI INDIANA GUN OWNERS. #24 Lets face it we all love to shoot and eat

[actaeon277]

Morning everyone. The new guy at work called off his 2nd time in two weeks. Guess the boss is gonna start looking for another one. I swear yesterday the new guy was complaining about the new generation just needing the chance and their foot in the door.

Still on probation?

 

[actaeon277]

Some of the best working most reliable people I've met at the mill have been in the 19-25 range. Thing is, if they're not they tend to be a total opposite end of the spectrum, waste of oxygen, bag of crap like that guy.

There are good and bad in each age group.
It's not that an age group is completely made up of good workers, or bad workers...
It's more of a percentage thing.

Guns are scary. I gave all of mine away

 

[sadclownwp]

Still on probation?

Yeah for 90 days

 

[actaeon277]

I tell people, if you show up, and can pass a drug test, you're on the way to being better than most job applicants.

As for job knowledge, I'd rather have a guy that works his butt off, but needs to be taught, than have a guy that knows everything, but doesn't leave his chair.

 

[actaeon277]

Yeah for 90 days

Well, get on that boss to do something.

We had a guy that SUCKED at the job.
The boss NEVER checked on him.
Well, until the guy was off probation.


Then he decided to see how he was doing.

She looks pretty.

Congrats man. All seriousness enjoy it.



Looks like it has similar clearance to my F250

Coming from a career where if you weren't 100% early every day for 20yrs you were fired,.......that sounds completely foreign. The motto was:

"If you're early, you're on time. If you're on time, YOU ARE LATE. IF YOU ARE LATE YOU ARE FIRED!"

What career was that?

 

[bdj357]

wtf is with people pooping at work? I just don't understand the whole 2pm pooper thing. but i also don't understand the people that come into work and then make themselves breakfast either... crapping in the middle of the day is not normal.

Actually I agree. I’d rather in the privacy of my own house. I thought it was funny.
But technically if you poop at work, you’d be getting paid.

 

[nonobaddog]

Looks great!
What are those yellow things on the splitter? Do they come off?

 

[actaeon277]

Must be nice, you guys that have a 'poop schedule'.

I guess shift work messes me up.
I poop when I have to go.
The clock has never figure in to it.

 

[mmpsteve]

She looks pretty.

Yes she is pretty. Do those run as good as they look? Do they handle decent?

Holy chit! That is a lot of cat litter. Have you tried just throwing them outside?

Not yet. Two are old cats who have stayed in all winter for health reasons. The other five are a fall litter of kittens from a feral stray that hangs around and they too have been stuck inside all winter. Just pulled them inside in December so they wouldn't freeze to death. They all just got their shots and spay/neuter this last weekend so once the weather stays nice for good they're going to start going outside again. Probably introduce them to the cat door in a few weeks,....see how that goes.

But yeah, lot of output but it's the input that's killing me. My #1 monthly expense is cat food(not counting this week's vet bill).

I think that is the way it is supposed to be, animals don't go on a schedule. They go on an urge.

Priorities I guess.

Transport protectors.

Some people leave them on.

Are you sure?
Have you studied animal poop habits?

 

[kaveman]

And actually, I have tried just throwing them outside several times. We've had a few nice sunny days the last month or so and I have taken them out to play for a few hours. Usually takes me at least an hour to catch them all and get them back inside and once I do they pile into the litter box(es) by twos and threes. I'm surprised they can hold it that long but I guess they too like squatting on company time. No way they're gonna do it outside when they could be playing instead.

 

[nonobaddog]

Not 100% positive and I have not "studied" poop habits but I have sat back in a lawn chair a lot at my cabin and watched some deer and cows, etc. and they sure don't seem to have any schedule.
