well ive done the work for yourself bit. not a bad living until you need insurance. or vacation. or retirement. or someone else to blame. ive ended up back in construction twice in my carreer. both times I got fed up with the b/s and was happier running a dozer or excavator. Nobody to bitch at ya but some big guy (the owner) for putting the dirt in the wrong place.

Oh there WILL be beer. and I WILL be RELAXED! Dont get me wrong on this I LOVE what I do. i just get irked when I come accross these situations, as the have and will continue to happen. I sometimes think that Im the only one who was raised proper (I know this to be false) But damn if it dont feel that way sometimes huh?

It would be one thing if I WAS acting the fool, or drunk or obnoxious. As Kitty, or hell even Hottie (my wife and largest critic), she tends to let me know if Im gettin loud and/or obnoxious. Through out the evening we were smiling, happy laughing, etc. I am neither large, or scary looking (at least i hope not ) If thats the kind of thing that intimidates someone into not confronting me. I hope they work for me one day so I can make them miserable. Cuz I am a happy-go-lucky guy that gets along with damn near EVERYONE I meet. I wont give them the benifit of the doubt. 1. because I think I know who it was and there is a history of blowing things out of proporiton and using upper mgt to do so. and 2. even if I were to be angered by such a request, the easest way out of and resolving the situation would have been to buy me a beer. I know, Ive done it to save my ass before. I only ask for the same respect I would have given them. No more, no less.

Does anyone know if anyone is producing a removable slider for non x-braced canopies? I am interested in putting on on my Nitro. My slider when pulled down is limiting the ability of my harness/risers to spread any wider. I have previously planned on changing wings (not size) this year but have decided to stay under this on for another season to refine my technique before moving on to a smaller or x-braced canopy. thanks for any help.

Oh and ive read the company policies(probably one of the few who have). from an admistrative standpoint they can do nothing. but from a sit me in a HUGE office with an exec stand point they can. for me its best just to let it go, and let it become a thing of the past. I'm trying to belive that sometimes, even bad visibilty is better than no visiblity at all. Now I have a reason to smile, wave, shake hands with that particular exec everytime I seem him. and if nothing of this sort ever comes up again. All he'll remember is me smiling and being pleasant and willing to do my part. maybe it will help me out one day.

Thats what I was thinking. I didnt even get drunk! Carnage wasn't even on the horizon. I can only imagine what would happen if we had been having fun! It's all good though. Just more reason to keep my personal life further away from my work life. And the guys I work with always ask me why I dont go to their parties/bars. B/C the less they know the better off I am.

they're using some funny ones on a local radio station: "when god said let there be light, Chuck Norris said "say please" "when chuck norris does push ups, he's not pushing himself up, he's pushing the world down." "the top three leading causes of death are: 1. hear disease. 2. Chuck Norris 3. Cancer" Goddam dirty hippies piss me off! ~GFD "What do I get for closing your rig?" ~ me "Anything you want." ~ female skydiver Mohoso Rodriguez #865

no...you don't get it, as usual. hippie is relating a story with the intent of passing on the moral to the rest of us who are not in a position of authority in his company. moral: don't be a coward. the coward of the story was telling their collective boss with the intent of getting hippie and co. in trouble/effecting change for their own benefit by being a pussy and not simply asking hippie and co. to tone it down. so, the moral of my post: the actions taken by hippie and coward are not the same, as you implied. THANK YOU! for the record: If I knew for sure which person (or persons) was the rat bastard. I would seek them out and aplogize for my actions as I believe thats just good karma. If I offend, I am truly sorry, but I'll be damned if I am going to go each of these people and say hey, someone didnt like the way I acted the other night was it you? Oh, no. well sorry anyway. Only inciting the evil that is corperate cube gossip. Goddam dirty hippies piss me off! ~GFD "What do I get for closing your rig?" ~ me "Anything you want." ~ female skydiver Mohoso Rodriguez #865

warning rant ahead. [rant] Yes, and you know who you are! So our company keeps tickets for sporting a few major sporting venues here in Atlanta. I attend them with what ever frequency I can get my hands on the tickets. its a great little perk, you get to have a good time, meet other folks w/ the company you'd otherwise never meet. So, Hottie, Kitty and I are at the game Friday night, meet a couple others from work there and we proceed to have a good time. Not a night at the DZ good time but an evening at a sporting event good time. Seems as though "someone" complained about our behavior. Im pretty sure who it was. My question is, if you dont like the way someone is acting by you, why dont you get the balls to say "Hey, would you please keep it down, etc?" Not go back to work and run to an excutive, and get THEM to handle it for you. Coward. I would have GLADLY toned down my "enthusiasm for the game" (their words not mine) so they might have not been so "distressed". I didnt bother to say hey, Im not the only employee having a good time and getting loud, there were others. That would have done no good. I took my medicine, thats the way it works. Ya screw up. You get whats coming to ya. But to that "someone"... All I have to say is fucking grow up, and take some responsibility for yourself. If you dont have the balls to stand up and ask for change, dont bother asking someone else to change it for you.

I thought starsky and hutch really paid no homage to its past, but was funny. comedy. I laughed. No laughing at full throttle. In fact my stomach turned. Sphere was bad, I have not yet decided if i'll let it be the WORST ever. Oh, and Core. thats the worst joke of a move since well I dont know when. Dont get me started on sci-fi flops!
