Start work Monday morning at 7:00am, I have to be there at 6:45am. Yech! I don't do mornings, never did. Approach with care prior to 9:00am after that I'm aces. Caffeine lots of caffeine, I used to drink a pot of coffee before going to work. I can't stomach that much nowadaze, so I have one mug and a Rockstar Punched 260mgs of C.

Here it is going to work. Pray the Lord give me power to persevere through the PAIN!!!!!
Chronic pain endurer 16+ years. I don't know it's out of my hands and into the LORD.
At least I get to watch the 3 stoogee b4 I leave. God bless
Shalom on you'ns.

Well, here you go!  I will right now at this moment lift you up to Him who blesses with so much abundance!  May He give you strength, courage, patience and anything else you need!

We celebrate with you, and pray your pain is manageable, Bro.

"He knows there's pain, but there is healing in His wings.
His time's not done, but when it does we will sing!
In His heart and in His mind, with every teardrop He calls your name,
And He says I want you home my child; until then there'll be pain."

("The World" by Bloodgood, from Rock in a Hard Place)

Much obliged brothers and sisters, I come to find out the workday is 6:45 to 3:15. If every shop let out at the same times it was be a mess on the smaller feeder roads that link to 4 lanes.
   In days of old, when I was say 32. I was remembering I made production in two days once, thats 16 to 24 sofas . Ahhh youth and vigor wellll, piss and vinegar. I was a clock hog, slip as close as possible to make my punch quick. Yesterday , I finished what I was doing after the buzzer went off,waited til the crowds left and went and talked to a feller that I worked with thirty years ago for 15 minutes before I left. We had a name for people like that back in the day "old farts!" So it's official , I'm now a geezer.
Yesterday I built five"bank of England" chairs in 7 hrs, pitiful.* I not going to say how much I hurt, it would be easier to say what don't ha!
 * I once would build three/hr if I felt lazy, 4/hr if I worked and 5/hr if I busted. I'm gonna need every bit of the 12 weeks.

Huh hh....no comment....It is the LORD s doin'. So I'll make it... Yesterday after the quittin time, there is no point in rushing out because it takes a good 15 minutes to clear the parking lot. Anyway, the geezers hang back and let the others hurry. Which is good because I get to catch up with work mates from thirty years ago. Ok Brother Jay this ole boy is finally gettn to the point. Close mind you. Seein as how I have an enlarged prostate (med side effect, for future reference Urinozinc plus beta sitosterol is 1/2 $ of Super Beta Prostate and works just as well) I had to go for a  ffive min squirt. I just so happened to cast a glance at the big end (livin room furn) and realized that GOD Almighty had put me in the best place because I wouldn't get thru one day hulkin around that heavy shit. Bless you Brother, I appreciate your work and I will give you the highest compliment of my people that I know "You're a pretty good feller for a Yankee".
Go Pitt!* Go Painters**
Shalom.
* I hope you like UP
** Just in case Painters is hillbilly for panther its the way my Daddy said it, his Daddy before yadda, etc.
Go Vols, Go Tarheels, Go Canes! Duke is Puke! I love college ball but, High School football is my fave, I can follow it.

I have no interest in sports, so chant for whomever you like I do have a relative who just got hired at Pitt (nothing to do with athletics), so there's that.

I'm even more of a Yankee than you might think. I live in Pgh now, but I grew up in Massachusetts. It's not that much different but there's enough of a difference for me to take notice.

Much obliged, re: "I appreciate your work and I will give you the highest compliment". People down your way say "much obliged," right?
