Nothing funny here.
Well I survived riverfest. The lure of free beer and beautiful women to look at was just too great a temptation to turn down. Managed to miss a day or two of work, dammit. Looks like I`ll be making a very brief trip to Sturgis, again. 3rd shift sucks. I would have alot less days missed if they would have left me on 1st. Basturds.
Most of the week was great weather. That usually doesn't happen around here in May. The river events were cancelled Saturday morning cause of the high water on the river. Bunch of pussys were afraid of, swift river currents. Typical of people in charge of stuff. The slightest bit of danger involved can't be any fun. Wonder how they would have liked my 100+mph ride across town the other night. Maybe I`ll make it a riverfest event next year. We can call it, The kellogge schlogge. Everyone drinks up at their favorite west side bar. Then at closing time we take off. The last one home pays everyones tab. Riverfest button, optional. No leaving early.
We have recieved our last, best, finale, offer here at the big B. Voting will comence next Tuesday. I don`t think its a bad offer. But the mood out here at the plant is less than chipper. I wouldn`t be surprised to see it fail by an 80% vote. When half the plant could retire in 3 years. Its doubtful they will embrace they kind of change this entails. The Canadianas will probably pack up and head home. Leaving mother boing to chop us up at will. Anyone want to hire an almost middle aged machinist? I`ll be the first to admit my job is going over seas. Just wished they would wait another 10 years. I`d have a chance to retire. As it is I have to sell either the house or the bik... the house it is!!! I kind of got offered a job Friday. Friend of a friend job offers in a bar don't always materialize. So I`m not holding my breath. Unless Brian reads this, then THANKS FOR THE JOB!!!!!
When and if this all pans out. Maybe I`ll be able to write something more funnier.
Until then, ride hard.
