amen

we have only two competitors world wide in this industry . and they are not taking any loss last order profit was over 40k.

i have checked and i am considered a non exempt manager and am entitled to overtime . but to add the the problem one of the owners is my brother in law .

no i am the only employee on salary that is working these kinda hours

i am a foreman in a shop and in the last three weeks i have worked 196 hours seems great right but i am on salary with no overtime. at what point do you say enough i know i know as some will say i am lucky to have a job but this is getting out of hand . i dont want to just say no i am not gonna work i do need my job . but how do i aproach the owners of this company and get them to see my point. i am an employee not a robot and not a piece of property? any advice will be helpful.

wranglers, boots,spurs and hat
will my legs reach around him
damn that bulls fat

down inside the chute i climb
the world around me stops
including time

rosin on my chaps and glove
my rope gets pulled tight
thats a feeling i love

nod my head i am ready to ride
as the chute opens
he jumps outside

reaching out over his head
if i fall off
on me i hope he dont tread

he drops his head and spins to the right
spurs dig in and i hang on
with all my might

i hear the wistle blow
pull my rope into the air
and to the ground i go

as i get up the crowd begins to cheer
but till i am behind the gate
i show no fear

as lomg as its legal no problem i am armed whenever i leave the house

i have recently reunited with my first love after 25 years and its like we were never apart . god sure works in strange ways

i wear wranglers t-shirts and boots
cowboy is in my roots
she is coach, prada,silk and lace
my princess with an angels face
my day are full of sweat ,dirt and tools
hers are shopping, drinks with the girls ..
....no rules
so different yet so the same
a love the whole world see's as insane
when we are together i try to be cool.
but she loves me even when i act the fool
so in my heart i will keep her near
and pray i can surpass this fear


to my princess after 25 years of searching we have found each other again .

dont know about most men but i prefer a woman be soft and feminine . dont want someone who is build like a man .

yes she was married .....

muriatic acid is the weakest then there would be ascorbic acid then nitric then sulfuric being the strongest . i am a former pool company owner .

was in karlsruhe 78th engr bn from 85 to 90

was only suppose tobe in germany 18 months but didnt come back to the states for 6 years . i really apprciate everyones advice . this has been a week of major ups and downs for me

when we spoke last night i explained that no matter what i would never be disapointed with her and the fact my life did not exactly turn out the way i wanted . but also reassured her that her friendship means more to me then anything . she did not hide the fact from her husband that we had dinner she told him and he had no problem with it . but i am also afraid i will end up being a factor in her divorece and i dont want to ever cause her any pain . nor would i ever break up a marriage . like i said i have only wanted her to be happy with or without me

is it possibe to still love someone even if you hadnt seem them or had any contact for 25 years . here is the thing . i recently moved back home to tx where i left after high school . my girlfriend from school had a year left and i went into the army . i was gonna propose to her after basic training. but beore i could she did make a mistake and messed around and got preg . i was so heart broken when they sent me to germany i never contacted her again. so life went on but i never forgot her.

well this week we ran into each other and all those feelings came rushing back. i didnt tell her but i did eplain why i never contacted her . she said she always wondered what happened to me and had thought of me and missed me all these years . so we went to dinner to catch up and accoring to her she was happily married . and that life was good overall . i told her i was happy for her and thats all i ever wanted for her .

we exchanged phone numbers and email and went on with our lives . now a few days later she called me and confessed she lied that her marriage was not good after her son leaves for college they plan to divorce. she told me she had said her life was good because she was afraid i would be disappointed with her and think bad . now i dont know what to do . do i tell her i still and always have loved her . this is the only woman who i have never been able to get over . i still have evey letter note car and pic from her from all those years ago. do i risk loosing her again by telling her this or do i just keep my mouth shut and love her like i have all these years . help i am so confused

day twelve and going strong woo hoo

as a former rodeo cowboy i say bull riding

how about evryone in america pay their own debts and quit expecting the tax payers to cover it for them

its a wonderful thing to be needed ,
but no words can describe the feeling of being wanted.
