Thankful I'm still here but now I wanna puke :(

Glad you passed the cut, man. I know that's gut wrenching.

My prayers are with you Paul.

Thanks guys... Between our 2 locations (Gilbert & Scottsdale) 9 total layed off, 4 in Scottsdale & 5 from our Gilbert office, 2 from our dept, one was near retirement would disappear several times a day & the other was a very hard worker, always early never late or called in sick, seeing him go was a shock to alot of us & instantly made me sick :(

Meeting later in the day the Prez said it was needed to keep the budget, & that it was a very tough decision. Hoping for some new contract that we bid to come about next year & if / when they bite they'll re-hire.

I just delivered my 1st pizza

First newspapers, now pizzas. You're moving up in the world!

Very cool Chris. Sounds ike a better offer all around. It would take a substantial dollar amount over Bechtel to make me think about considering just for the drive alone. :))

Congrats!

I just got a pair of MTR Kev's from Andrew at AZ Best Tire.

in hindsight, i should have done 4 shakes of tabasco on my salad instead of 12
