| Well I left my past job, went to the new today. Have not really slept good for the past few nights, with the second guess, jitters, not sure, did I do the correct thing, etc.!!! But the day went well, great to say. Seems like a dream come true for me. BUT one issue here, I found out that this older, fat, man, is not what he was in the past. YES I am sore, and hurt!! Going to eat some dinner, then out for the night! Good Night all. LOL But I will be there at 6 am for the next day! |

| I don't know your reason for changing, but I always told the guys (and gals) that worked for me that if you really don't like your job, go somewhere else. You only live once. Don't go through life doing something you don't like. Life is too short ! |

Look at it this was.... your new employer is PAYING you to exercise on the job !! You'll be in great shape without having to PAY for a gym membership !! I said this to my grandaughter who works retail at a nearby farm,hauling 50-60# boxes and such. She smiles, laughs and says 'hay that's true !' She also gets paid $5 everytime she backs into my driveway....I'm slowly going broke. ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

Dave I’m proud of you for having the guts to change. I’ve been tossing the idea around for a long time but keep staying at HCI. I’ve turned down a months worth of work in the past two days. The boss is subbing most of our work out to illegals and my job is now small jobs and a lot of running around. You’ll do well. |

Glad it is working out for you. Good luck with the new job. By the way, 59 is not that old. Wait 10 more years, then you'll know how I feel.
