not while I'm sober

henapple

Please wait to start hilarious threads till I can get out of Fairfax traffic and have a few at the hotel.

Thanks

hapster

LOL... agreed. Have a few hours of work yet, then it's happy hour

Eggcelsior

You're in Virginia? Dayum. That's a hour from me.

NPHuskerFL

Sounds fair to me. ;-)

So, drunk yet?

DMW

Your not far from the Dizzy Pig store. Oh, and I'm about to crack a beer.

robnybbq

No beer tonight.  Went to a concert last night and drank ALLOT of beer.  It was hot out and they were flowing fast.

Now that is not to say I wont have a Vodka or Bourbon.

Finally a few beers, shower and enjoying a stick. First 12 hour day in a while. The 14 hr days are killing this old man. It's a shame you can't find anyone to work. Hired 3, fired 3. People are f#$@ing stupid.

@henapple‌ Per our last conversation. Lots of guys want to get paid. Few are worth paying.

Doing my mid year eval now... earlier today, one of my guys decided to resign (under protest of course)... this makes 6 terminations in a about 18 months. I'm starting to get a rep

What are y'all giving folks the axe for? Lazy? Not showing up?

I think it's drinking and smoking cigars.... hypocrites... 

henapple

Let's see...I hear:

I have a family to take care of
I want to learn a trade
I want to make money
I'm a hard worker
I'm a quick learner

What I say:

Put your #$@ phone up
You can smoke but can't use your hands
We don't walk on the job site. ..hussle
Are you serious?
I feel sorry for your family
Here's a greyhound ticket home
Never go full retard

I took my 15 year old son out last week just to give him an idea of what exactly I do and why I'm tired as hell when I get home. He did a great job. Picked it right up. I was proud as all get out. He can out work most men.

Imagine how you'd feel if you were 89 working 16 hour shifts on an oil rig. You're not close to the man that SGH is brother.

Hey friend. ..I do what I can do.

All sorts of reasons... most of them really did it to themselves, I just helped them along with the documentation and paperwork

Man after my own heart, Hap - that's what I used to say when asked why someone in my department resigned. 

Eggcelsior

Man, that henapple sounds like a ****. No wonder you drink PBR

caliking

He's trying to get Jake to do all the hard work so he has more PBR time.

travisstrick

I find the no hussle is a problem where I work too.

Hell, Mickey is 9,000 years old and has a busted hip but he walks faster than most infantry privates and he's the only guy I know who can eat faster than me.

nolaegghead

SWMBO will eat faster than both of you put together.  Youngest of 8 kids growing up, they just set troughs of food out and it was like lord of the flies.

Eggcelsior

I smell a Salado contest.

hapster

Okay... Now I'm settled in, listening to the Tigers vs. KC

Ready for some forum hijinks

HDumptyEsq

@hapster - just like old times. BTW how's the shoulder coming along?

Ha!
Thanks... Shoulder and arm ache most of the time unless I take a vike or drink a bit. I think I have an MRI on Tuesday so hopefully some answers.

henapple

Start a blog....you'll feel better.

@henapple‌ what is it you do? (Your trade)

Dobie

Are you feeling slutty yet?

I think @Little Steven told us already, he's a slut.
