Walmart here I come!

My car is a 1966 Yenko Stinger. It is #100 of 100. I am working on putting the original race engine back together, as I would like to vintage race it, or at least run it on some tracks. This car was a race car from the day it was bought, with the 2 previous owners racing it extensively (I am the 3rd owner). I bought it when nobody cared about a Yenko Corvair road racer. I am very proud of my car (can you tell??), and have almost every paper from the day it was ordered in 1966.

Those old CJ's are very cool !!! We had a 1946 CJ2A with a Olds 215 aluminum V8 in it, and a Warn overdrive. It was one of the vehicles we sold before we moved to AZ. We already moved with 7. LOL

In Buckeye, they hire so infrequently that it takes forever to move up. When they do have openings, most of the time people transfer in to take the spots. Not good for seniority, but a very nice place to live. I won't complain !!! (well, maybe a little. LOL)

 

30 minute break time. I'm on my way to Vegas. I had 2 dogs also. We didn't have any Kraut, but I did have one chile, cheese, and onions............... and the other with relish and onions. Yep, they overhang the buns by about 2" on either side. Yummmm............... When I was picking up my paperwork, I almost went in and got another chili/cheese................. but, seeing as how I am heading to Vegas, I thought better of it.

Hey Tom, hope you are or get to feeling better. Allergies are brutal here right now. I don't have many, but the wife is asthmatic and is allergic to almost everything. She has been having a rough go of it for the last few days. She told me to tell you guys Mucinex is your friend. LOL Seriously though, it really helps with the allergy thing, believe it or not. It keeps stuff moving. She is pretty prone to sinus infections, and since she added that to her allergy regimen she hasn't had one.

Anyway, I only have a couple of minutes left, so I will talk at you guys later. I have a load of claims, and she is light..................... so my 301 miles should only take me a couple of hours, right?? LOL

 

Hey Tom hope you feel better and thank you gentlemen for this great thread be safe.

 

Thanks guys. I am feeling a lot better after resting all day at the Holiday Inn near the DC. I missed getting in on the hot dog action today! Glad you guys who did enjoyed them!

 

They have injury free drawings in Buckeye every week that there are no injuries. Just like in Sealy and every other DC in the country. Look straight ahead when you enter the break room the name of the weekly winner is up there. It's the first thing I look at every time I walk in.

 

I got the call and I start October 7. Very happy, but also very nervous. I know it is the right decision for me and my family, but there are some doubts and second thoughts. Anyone else have these feelings when they were about to start?

 

Jfred, just ask any questions that you have, about things that are making you nervous. We would be more than happy to help. We have been there, so we certainly understand. It is always hard to switch from a known, even if not great, to an unknown. I was at my last job for 7 years. As they say, sometimes it is easier to stay with the devil you know, than go to the one you don't know. The good news here, this is no devil, and you will be happier than you can imagine.

Anyway, hearty Congrats are in order !!!! You will see, as everyone else has, just how right your decision was, when you start orientation.

 

congrats to you... anytime your putting your well being on the line you will be nervous. I am sure you have sifted through the info on here and have a pretty good idea of what to expect. I walked away from a great job to come here, left 3 weeks vac ,a week of sick time and home every night and off weekends. I have not looked back at all still very pleased with my decision. Make great money get great rest, great equipment , treated awesome and have my schedule for an entire year.
