Lets say I had a trailer....I would need a place to store it.

Anyone close to Plainfield want to rent me some space to store a trailer, flat bed type, 20' ?

How close is close?
:D
 
Same here RamHam. Got you covered bnrutha.
 
Things have gotten a bit more peaceful, but for wrong reasons, hezbollah has taken control of much of beirut. Things are going to be real interesting in the upcoming weeks. It's scary how similar it is to how the civil war started back in 75 that lasted for 15 years.
 
Finished up the gears today and took her for a spin, all was well, its quite a relief. Now only if I had done that before the semester ended I might have done better.
 
And Since Katy lost her job I don't know if I will be able to finish the job next semester. We were barely scraping by with Her check and state employment benefits. Any other job she can get around here generally pays %33 less with no benefits. It is really sad that a batchelors degree is worth 8-12 dollars an hour around here.

I'm starting to get aggrivated about her losing her job. There is another employee there that is constantly calling in with BS stories and whatever this weeks hypochondria is, and she gets written up at least once a month. My wife gets written up 2-3 times(for BS reasons, i.e. "you didn't do x." when she had no idea x was her responsibility) and "let go" because her boss said "don't take this personal, but I know you don't like your job, so I'm letting you go."


They have been trying to get her to quit for the last 3-4 months apparently. They have been adding more and more responsibility to her and she's been doing it, aparently well enough that they couldn't write her up for anything that she had done wrong in that time period. Her boss and immeadate supervisor just didn't like her, and wanted her gone. She even overheard them refer to her as "idiot girl" one day. I tried to get her to document as much as she could, but Louisiana is a "right to work" state and she was in her "2 year probationary peroid" so apparently there is no recourse.

The tornados that plowed across SW Missouri and Oklahoma got my parents property. I talked with them yesterday and luckily they were out of town so they are alright, but it is going to be a mess to clean up. What really sucks is that my office is having a "Quality Assurance Review" this week and there is no way that I can get away to help my folks until Friday......I guess it could be worse, my Mom said that a couple of people that they go to church with died.

Sorry to hear this man.... We went through a similar situation a couple of years ago... our saving grace was that in Illinois they had to show cause as to why her workload was increased 3 fold with no increase in pay or available work hours. Jenni got her 26 weeks of full unemployment.
 
That sucks man, I know how it is to live on the wife's paycheck while in school. If Kim were to lose her job we would be screwed.

Prayers for ya...
 
Man it's nice to be home. We went to Indy to visit the folks last Tuesday through today, and while it was nice to see everyone, especially on Mother's Day, it is sooo nice to be back home.

To add to it, Dad decided on a whim to sell our old house he has been renting out, so we had to get our remaining stuff out of the basement we were storing since we didn't have space here. Gotta love spending a day going through old stuff you haven't seen in a year. :rolleyes: I think most of it is going to end up in the trash... if we didn't need it all year we can most likely do without it.
 
I'm internet-less at the house. Puter bit the big one I think. My activity will be limited on here. So, if you need me...call.

Could you please tell my wife that next time you see her?
 
The plot has been revealed today. The cleaning lady, whom the boss likes, wanted to move up. So my wife, whom the boss dislikes, got the boot.

Oh and the kicker? This is an animal research job with primates, and my wife was one of only 2 people there with a degree.
