Creepy being, creepy. It what he does.

Honestly anything east of Edmonton or Calgary can fuck off, way too flat for my liking
Saskatchewan is really fawking boring.
Water main is wrapped in poly. Conduit is old dead shit. I guess there was a trailer park and a gas station here at one point. There's a bunch of abandoned stuff in the ground.water main looks like a snagged electrical conduit?
Even worse when you drive 11.5hrs and fix the problem in 20min. Not even joking....Nothing boosts morale like those end of day service travel calls.
Did you get some black light markers to practice your artwork yet?
Walls were to remain untouched. I got lucky putting the calendar up. That's it.Did you get some black light markers to practice your artwork yet?
I’m sure you’ve said before, but can you hang anything else on the walls?
Your a better person than me, I probably would have gone postal by now.Walls were to remain untouched. I got lucky putting the calendar up. That's it.
oh, my the area around my monitors is full of stuff. The backside of my desk is all drawings and stuff from kiddo. I've got a Peanuts cartoon about motorcycles that people think is sexual but isn't. That's been taken down twice.That sucks. I’d cover my desk in stuff to help pass the day.
They may not be fans of Snakes.It's entirely plausible neither of your dogs are Diamondbacks fans?
Just a question... Do you know how to spackle and paint? If that's not an option then I consider your company a shitty one to their employees. We're talking mere $10 at very most for a few hole repairs if they that damn anal. If no other company perks, I'd say that would be a big negative perk. What if you got sick and puked on the wall? Fell down and spilled coffee? Or got drunk and fell down and busted a hole with your elbow?Walls were to remain untouched. I got lucky putting the calendar up. That's it.
Everything is tax payer funded. We can't touch anything. It all needs to be hired out. We have auto closing door with little pistons in them that control how fast they slam the door shut. I got in trouble for adjusting it. We had to call someone to come adjust them.Just a question... Do you know how to spackle and paint?

Brutal. Maybe count the number of days remaining until you can retire and do a post-it count down. Will give you a slight change of scenery every day at least
I did have a count a couple weeks ago.Brutal. Maybe count the number of days remaining until you can retire and do a post-it count down. Will give you a slight change of scenery every day at least

If you're layed over in the EDM area shoot me a text and we'll grab a coffee

Oddly, dealing with this currently. I am told we now have been voluntold that we will take over Mexico from Germany's service team, customer calls asking for a Preventative Maintenance service call, on a machine that is running fine. I ask about it and Germany is like - Yea go do a service call, I am like that is going to be $15-20K to just be there for no good reason. I do not have the resources to do it, esp when a phone call can resolve it. But the company would love to bill $20K for 8 hrs of actual work.....Did you know it was gonna be a 20min fix going into it?
Shit like that at my old job, where the customer would just refuse to even lift a finger or look at a wire, absolutely got quoted the F-off price. Sure, I'll come out to your plant and reset a breaker for you. You cover full travel expenses, $150+/hr 'engineering' on-site, minimum 2 days. DozerDan82 knows how those jobs go
"That seems like a lot just to reset a breaker."
"Well, you could go do it for free right now."
"But I can't touch that part of the panel."
