lol....the only reason i'm not gonna quit viracon is cause i just got put at the lowest position on my new line (after being a back-up lead on my old line) but at viracon you move up so fast i could easily be a lead and pushing $20 and hour in under two years......so i figure with how easy it is to move up i can put up with the B.S. for a while...

my surervisor is going to talk to the plant manager and try to keep me but I don't think it will do any good. I'll know pretty quick if it does. They say they can't afford to pay me this much money to do this job. I said you can't afford not to. You keep retraining people and they keep losing materials. Right now they are missing 1.3 million dollars worth of parts. It has went way down since I started. Not to brag or anything but I work hard at my job.

I've been told only people with bad credit gets grants. That leaves me out. sucks though She got a 40 thousand dollar scholarship and she takes out a student loan for 4 thousand a year. I just don't want to have to pay for her education the rest of her life. It's going to be around 120 thousand for four yrs.

I use to go to Brainard every year for to weeks camping with my parents. Would love to do it again. Got in trouble once though. We camped right across from Camp Ripley. Just couldn't resist crossing. Parents caught us though. Kind of ruined the vacation. But we had fun until then. lol
