Re: life{ what a *****]
By the way, once a year my friends and I take a long weekend to just hang out. We don't hunt. we don't fish (I do for 1/2 day or so. We sit around the campfire, drink beer, talk, tell jokes, go out on the logging roads, and the rest involves 151 proof rum, gasoline, propane torches, some casino hopping, etc. It is something everyone looks forward to every year. We even have our own site at Yahoo Groups. It sure helps keep the spirit up and we all feel better afterwards. I wish I could post a picture of some of the pyrotechniques. As one brother in law said, how the heck did you burn the limbs 40 feet in the air? Well the sound is like a jet engine and the fireball goes 40 feet into the air.

I am 29, Broke, not married, no kids"thank god", and have been at the same dead end job for 13 years.. I know it's a dead ender because I now own half the company and don't really have a way out.. So I have to worry about the bottom line and keeping the ends tied up.. (you guys that are self employed know what I'm talking about)..How ever many hours it takes to finish the job thats how long I'm there be it 1 hour or 100 hours...I have not had a vacation EVER!!! I don't think I would know what to do on a vacation.. I would just love to leave it all and find a job I would enjoy for a change..One where I could just put in my 40 hours and go home at the end of the day and not have to worry about the bottom line..One with some real benefits other than headaches, ulcers and sleepless nights..<br />But thats what I'm stuck with so I do my work to the best of my ability and try to keep my customers happy..Thats all I can do..<br /> A wise man once said " When life hands you lemmons make lemonade"....Mabey it's not all that bad????
