    Thanks. The Coleman fridge I had crapped out on me big time. Probably more than just the fuse...

    I'll see if I can't find that one you're speaking of, I believe I'll pass one or two TA's on the way home from here.
     
    TruckDuo and horsecrazychic22 Thank this.

    All I'll say...

    Find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life.

    Take that as you feel the need to.

    Well, now I know.

    Heh... I figured it'd be one way to get this group all in one place. :p

    We all seem to like food.

    Though...some folks would have to break boundaries!

    And @HeWhoMustNotBeNamed would need to break restraining orders. :evil4::laughing6:

    I've enjoyed everything I've done here (except when I worked city dispatch, I loathed that the 3 weeks I did it). Would love to find a job I love 100%. I've had ups and downs here in the last 2 3/4 yrs.. there's been times I was dead set on leaving, then it always got better. I would definitely miss the drivers here, which has kept me around also. Buuut I should have seen this "down" as darn near guaranteed :rolleyes:

    The tire shop is a place I've tried to get into numerous times, mostly because I knew what I was doing there so well even the branch manager occasionally still asks me how to do some stuff (and I never officially worked there). And I know the majority of the people who work there about as well as I know the ones I work with here. But I know I don't want to be an office girl there forever either. o_O

    I have been thinking more seriously lately about turning in my desk for a dashboard. Thought about it on and off a lot over the years, might be getting to a point in life where it's time to just go for it....

    @TLG87

    Well, I said take it as you see it. Was by no means telling you to stay or go. :D

    I can only tell folks what I'd do. But there's nobody like me (my mother is thankful for that...) or anyone else.

    But I'll add this. Sounds like your mind is made up. You're wanting validation.

    By the way...desk for a dashboard?

    Huh...seems like a fun idea! Although a weird change...

    If I could make up my mind on crap, life would've been a lot easier this last month or so LOL. :rolleyes:
    The job change was actually a "talked about on Saturday in passing" type deal, then brought up again today at lunch if I'm interested. Guess it all depends on what happens with some other things personal-related and how it will affect current job. o_O

    And maybe a dash more like this one :p (although not necessarily in a Freightshaker ;) )

    For now, I'll count minutes left in the day, and be super glad I only have 1 day left between me and 4 days of doing nothingness. :cool:
