    I has started the main engine.

    Stealth mission under the cover of darkness shall ensue momentarily.

    There's another Starve just wheeled in. Dunno what he's doing driving around the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night.

    I have arrived at the receiver, having endured the lashing tain of a hunnert thousand dozen mofos. And hail, even.

    The guard has checked me in, even though he informed me that "receiving doesn't even get here until 6am, and then they're not ready to work until 720am".

    Receiving hours are posted as 0600-1500.

    They don't start 'til 720.

    They probably extend their morning break to 20 minutes, then screw around in the receiving office for another 10-20 minutes.

    So now we're at 1040. By 1130 they gotta "start getting ready for lunch".

    Lunch is supposed to be 1200 to 1230, but they generally manage to pad the time to 1240.

    Afternoon break 1315 to 1330, padded out to 1345.

    By 1415, it's time to "start getting ready to go home".

    1440, everyone in receiving is in the locker room.

    Line up to punch out at 1455. First punch out at exactly 1500, the rest of the line follows.

    This is just speculation, but I'll bet I'm not too far off.

    Sounds like my kinda place. I wonder what the real estate market is like here........

    Finished some chores and sat down with a drink at a table/umbrella. It was pleasant until a microburst of wind pulled an umbrella and everything else up about 100 ft. in the air. Dog took off barking, horses left the area at a full gallup. WTF. Trashed everything in the area. I took off and a outside heater decided to fall on me. It was a total ####show. Probably happens all the time in Georgia.

    I stopped in Grants for a four(4) hour rhinoceros during the wee hours of the morning.

    I has now stopped at The Smith's near Moriarty, and gotten a full re-supply of all sustenances.

    The OM would be pleased.
