Well guys looks like my hours are down from last weeks 28.5. There will be slow weeks like every industry and this is one of them. Hopefully next week is better even though turkey day is on Thursday and I have off. Anyways had a good day today and was told to report in at noon tomorrow.

Despite my hours going down, this week has gone well. Larry told me I was doing a good job today and pointed how I could be more efficient. When you have a small business like this, customer service, efficiency and safety are important as you could and will loose profit easily. For instance, I was able to take the smaller truck on delivery in afternoon as it was more efficient compared to the big truck. I made the company some money by selling all my inventory on the truck. Vary rarely do I ever take the 350 when it is not needed. This morning I was able to help a customer out by pointing out an obvious mistake that could have cost him big money in the long run. In conclusion, I have had success. Another week gone by.

Well guys it is Sunday and I am super stoked for tomorrow. My parents are coming home from NY tomorrow and I get to go to work. This weekend I have thought about where I was and how proud my moms would be if there were here. Nov. 18 marked 15yrs since my adoptive mom died. It is sad but I know they are watching me. On that day something was bothering me and I now know why.
Anyways, my parents and I feel I have come a long way since leaving in Memphis TN. I have a steady and enjoy it. Like any job, you have parts that are worse. However, the good outdoes the bad by a mile.

Not to be nosey, but why don't they offer you full time hours? You're obviously dedicated to the position, and it has to be tough on you at less than 30 hours per week. I know about Florida, and I'm assuming that the economy is the reason, but when do they expect to be able to offer their guys full time hours again?

Well guys looks like I will be an Uncle again as my step sister may be three- four weeks pregnant.
TT,
In addition to what we said in the PM, I only want part time right now. If full time is offered when this economy gets better, I would have to discuss it with my family to make sure everything is working out. My decision that I make effects them a lot. However, I am already going to run the shop for a week in December.
