HAH! Yellow underwear...
I always say that . . . A customer was yelling at me once over a warranty deal or something and he said "I bet you even have yellow underwear", and I said, "Yes I do" . . . :D Now I remember, Fabco . . . I've even done some business with them years ago. I was at Shepherd which has since been bought by Quinn.

Have you thought about what you want to do there in the future? TC? Service Manager? Your body will wear out before your need for money will . . . It's what I tell all techs with a brain ;)

Welcome aboard and hope to see a young man such as yourself advance in our ranks. :D Thanks for telling us where you live and your boat. It is so hard to give advice to people when not knowing where they live and what they have.

Just a precaution for you, politics and very controversial subjects will get locked or deleted immediately. We have some of the best moderators there is.

Again, welcome aboard............SS

Yeah, I'm only 28, but I can already feel the wear and tear on my body... I'm not sure what I'll do next... When I was 22 I bought my first business, I owned one of those quick lube places. It was fun, but I sold it to some people so they could build a Burger King... After that I wanted the job with the least amount of responsibility... And somehow, I keep getting promoted.

I really just want to go to work, get my work done, and go home... Currently that seems harder and harder to do... With all the layoffs we've had fairly recently, I'm forced to wear several hats... I am now the only 24/7 on call service technician...

I'll get to know everyone around here in due time, however, how can people get to know me without a proper introduction?

I do have my own beliefs as far as politics and religion... However, the closer it's getting to warmer weather, the harder it is for me to think of anything other than having fun on the lake or river...

The really sad part is...

I've been thinking like this since November... :D
