Well I have been away for a bit visiting with family and enjoying my new kayak. I have been off work all week and even though weather hasn't been great I still found myself on the river as much as possible. My first trip out was fun and relaxing. But yesterday I decided to go the opposite way. That was a learning lesson waiting to... Read More

Well, Einstein's when you have product to produce how in the fuck do you expect to do that? Now do the CEO making 6 figures easy have any cut back....NO actually I... Read More
Nobody was laid off, all were terminated. Every one of them had already used all their vacation and sick time on a call in basis, no scheduled vacation time, all had been given written warnings and 90 days to improve. The economy sucks right now and I'm forced to make cuts, but I've yet to lay off a single employee ... I'm just clearing out the people who don't seem to want a job.

Well it's Friday and my glorified day off. I wish Spring would get here already so I could just hop in my car and go kayaking....it's still far too cold, about 16 out! But I have thought of a great alternative...I am going to go finally buy my gas grill for my back deck I finally finished building last summer/fall. So now I need to... Read More

for the water. Sometimes the clubs are really slow
to take to new people , but don't give up on 'em.
