    So if I understand what you are saying here, you have left Pepsi and are now with a vending machine company? Is that right?

    You dont also happend to have a Special Garden out back do ya? :biggrin_255: I could never move back to VT, there are very few driving jobs up there that could allow me to maintain my quality of life i have down south. in NC you can live VERY nice off $14.75. Sheet when i was working for $11.34/hr 40-60 hours a week down here I was renting a 2 bedroom house on a corner lot 1/4 acre, and i had 2 cars, my pickup and my boat and still was putting money in the bank :yes2557:

    that raise should make life allot better then. Where abouts in VT are you?
