    This isn't so much about traveling as it is about work. Why is it that if I make a general announcement about an ongoing project and ask people not to interfer and not to go near the area that's all they seem to be able to do???


    Why, If I say don't go near the boxes do I have one person move the box to what he thinks is a better area and another guy "fix" the box???? Why??? I just don't get it.

    doh!! even the bosses around here are nosebuds. I have other contractors here doing a job and a boss from a completely seperate and unrelated area is buggin me about my contractor's trash bins. The boss was asking me what they were going to do since the bins were full, when are they getting a new bin? It's my project and I don't even care about the bin "situation". The contractors are bing paid a flat fee, they've done this before and I think it's probably they're dealt with full bins before... sheesh nosebuds..

    I find that I like wearing hats. There are some days I'll find myself sitting at my desk typing away and realize I still have my hardhat on, then I realize that I was in the plant an hour ago which would mean I've been sitting at my desk with a hard hat on, for about an hour. In some ways it's comforting, it makes me feel like I'm keeping all my marbles in...

    its esies to keep track of what you are writing about with a blog.

    Besides! you already have one. you just havent posted in it yet! With the new blog system, every member automaticly gets a blog set up for them. It just doesnt show until you post your first entry.
    Its there so you might as well use it!
