What did you do at work today?

Fiber laser finally showed up. Working on getting it inside before the rain comes back thru.

Bent up exhaust for an 2000ish s-10 with a swapped in 400sbc. Customer wanted tailpipes through the box sides, new one for me but I said sure I can do that.

First day back from the Rona. They wasted no time putting me back to work.

Pretty much greeted a bunch of people from one of our corporate partners.

Had over nearly 20 people’s ID’s to check today. Which says a lot considering our storefront hasn’t exactly been busy lately 🤷‍♀️

Added more km's to my Fuggly, that is a Nissan NV 1500 micro van for the curious. The moniker comes from a friend who, when he first saw one, commented that "Boy, was it ever F**k**g Ugly". So it became a Fuggly for short. Told him at the time his taste was in his tongue. I've seen a lot nastier looking creations on the streets and hiding behind the loosely applied appellative of "vehicle". The 1500 is no Lambo but then the Lambo has to have a ski rack added to it just to transport a purse!! I managed at one point to put around 1800 lbs of cargo in the cargo bay and it didn't seem to mind. A little slower on the take off and needed a little more space for braking, just to be kinder to the mechanicals but all in a day's work. As for the nickname, i don't use the term around the rest of the team. it would take too long to explain and at least one of them might be offended by the language or the reference; it's a generational thing and extremely subjective; they take offensive at the weirdest things.

So I did my prescribed hot laps/routes around the city, tried to stay away from humanity because they are all sick, and made the rounds, deliveries and pickups, according to the route guide and protocols. The NIssan has an A/C that works so my office is comfortable, social interaction is minimal, it all works for me. This is a lather, rinse, repeat exercise and I enjoy it for nine months of the year; winter just flat sucks and there is no way around it. Anywhere that used to be warm in the winter is now on fire and tourists and snowbirds are likely to be a-heading to any of them any time soon.

So Friday was my last day at my old job. Was bitter sweet. I did the final polish on the 442 I painted last year. It’s should be finished soon, unfortunately I won’t be there to see it completed.
Today I picked up my work van for my new tech rep job. Hopefully I made the right decision.

Meant to post this a week ago but got sidetracked. After 6-1/2 years driving this paper shredding truck I'm in the process of switching gears! A local gbody friend drives a semi for Sysco foods and does very well doing it.
I enjoy my gig, but well underpaid compared to other companies in same line of work. I'm on a do not compete clause which is fine. Was joking around about going to Sysco when my friend said they need help bad!!! One thing has led to another and I have an interview tomorrow morning which could legit be life changing for my family. I'm at the age where I need to make a change now and get into a solid company I can retire from.
My boss said she would likely retire in the next 10ish years, that leaves me with squat. Gotta think about my family. Fingers crossed it all works out in the morning, I'll update once complete.
