Got a promotion last week and a raise too. I guess things are getting better. CEO resigned and the original took over. Good news. Wife is becoming a welder, go figure. Need new starter on the '65. It's all OK.

Ah Yes, Yes. It's been a week or two since I've written. In a nutshell, I was a candidate for the Union Pacific job but declined it because I would never be home. It would've been my sure way out of the this company, oh well, keep on keepin' on. But I have decided that all the bitching and complaining I do does nothing to improve my situation. I have concluded that I will now have a positive attitude on the work front. Sure, boss is still an asshole but lame idea he now comes up with ...

Boss is still an asshole. I used to be able to trust him, those days are long gone. Nobody likes him except for his bottomline buddies. Someday he'll realize how much respect has been lost because the way he treats his group. The ship's going down brotha enjoy the ride.

Well, I actually got a call from Union Pacific for an interview. Who would've thought?? I filled out the application "just to see".

This was an article from MSN. I suffer from it all except 7 and 10...... In some ways it was a typical breakfast meeting. The waitress was pleasant, the eggs were average, and the restaurant was full of busy people. We shared a cup of black, coffee-like substance, and the first few times my client took a sip he managed to spill quite a bit of it. His trembling hand was just one of the symptoms of his burnout. That’s why we were meeting. He wanted to know if I could help him. I picke...

Well, it has been a few days since I have written down my thoughts. Oddly enough its been busy at me job....busy doing the same stupid shit that's not my job. At least the paychecks clear. I finally finished that application for the Train Service job at Union Pacific. My first steps to yet another career change. At first the thought of another career change worried me until Jill mentioned that the average person changes careers seven times. I thought, "Shit man, I think I'm only at num...

Just kind of reading various blogs. Found a "Are you on the right or left?" quiz. Pretty cool. I fell in at 21.....I think I am still a little more to the left. I did vote for Bush back in 2000, but I am currently a swing voter. Edwards joining the Kerry ticket has made it interesting, he seems like an alright guy. The jury is still out on Kerry. What's with that Jay Leno fucking jaw he has going on???? Grim looking fucker, ain't he? I still don't know what his stance is on the war....

I'm still learning this blog thing. Reading other folks'z blogs is some funny shit. Who comes up with random shit like "Your Pearls of Wisdom Make Great Anal Beads, Grasshoppah!"......random fucks like you and me, that's who. Here is were I begin this weird trek of Blogging my thoughts. It could come in handy as I am a forgetful person. I can remember shit this way. This would also be a good conveyance (sic) for my wife to express her wacked out thoughts. She's a sweet girl. As soo...
