T - 4 hours and I'm officially on vacation until the 4th. I'm ready for this, since my annual Arizona trip to the SDTF got stolen from me earlier in the year.

Getting closer....

 

Unfortunately my day has just begun. It will be as shitty as the last. And there will be no vacation. Couple days off next week and back to it. Enjoy your time off.

Owner gave me a 500$ Christmas gift this morning, good news is it pays for half the broken tooth I had fixed yesterday. 
 

merry fucking Christmas

Quit chewing on rocks and that shiit won’t happen. 
 

merry fuckin Christmas!  Broken teeth suck. I have almost as many crowns as I have solid teeth now.

Probably should be the same, genetics and getting smashed in the face with a Johnny bar haven’t helped me none

Yeah. My company just got bought out about 6 weeks ago (ish). A much larger (corporate) outfit is who bought us out.

I've been with the company pretty much since the owner started it back in 08. He started it literally on 1 January of 2008. Followed shortly by hiring my son (who a number of you know), only to bring me onboard a few months later (somewhere around April of 08) once the business could "afford" me.

I'm not the type to ever complain about Christmas bonuses. I've always been of the mindset, that they're exactly what they're called......a bonus. Not a guarantee. Traditionally, through the years, I've always been taken care of pretty good. The owner always acknowledged that he knew that without a guy like me, back at the beginning, that his company wouldn't be where it's at. Over the years I've gotten accustomed to, but still never expected, a Christmas bonus that has grown upward to almost 4 grand.

This year? I just got a Yeti mug and a 200 dollar gift card. (Merry Christmas Fuker).

Part of me still stands by my original theory that I've had throughout my entire working career. The other part? Well....let's just say that THAT part was kind of insulted, and threw them both in the fukin trash.

Oh, Merry Christmas, fukker.

Oh I’m not complaining we usually get a good end of the year bonus. And it made me happy that I could replenish the money I didn’t plan on spending yesterday today

Nope. No big deal my brothers. I was just venting a little. There is a whole rabbit hole that I can go down about the company. Promises made (to the tune of a percentage of the company). And promises never kept once the company started taking off.

Just another example of, "always get it in writing".

I've always liked to think of myself as a "handshake" type of guy.

Just another example of how others just don't follow that type of rule.

 

Oh, and I'll dig that bitch out of the trash for ya Tom. Just out of principle, I don't want the damn thing.

I'll permanent-paint-pen your name on it, and use it at work, just so the guys ask "Who the fuk is RON?!!?"

:hail:

Oh, by the way - you have  FUK-TON of 5.56 ammo out here, brother.  I'll count the other shiit, too - but it's not a small amount.

Future planning, and all that...  :thumbup:

Lucky.... I get an annual hazard pay of 700 bucks. It equals on averages $233 for each time I’ve been shot at the last couple years

Well my supervisor gave me the next 3 holidays off as regular days off, so no holiday pay for me this month. But I will take it for the kids.

and I haven’t gotten shot at as a cop yet. But I also work in a very rural area.

Can't you just capture one; and go on with your day? /s

"Ride" it to work? You're in Canada already. What's the problem here? You need more straps; or food for your "vehicle"? Much Love.

I had a weakass mutherfuker out of local lost his hold on his johnson bar getting an air handler on the pad. I was prone on the bar that was touching the ground, it came up and threw me a couple of feet into a pile of cinder block debris. It punched a hole in my Bridge hat, put a mouse on my eye. Got my mouth out of the way just in time. Good time's 🍺🍺
