I'm tellin ya we got it made! we were at Home Depot Saturday , I got sticker shock on a lot of items , had to go through and check my recipe it seemed too high but it all calculated out felt like I was getting 100 dollars worth of stuff for 165. my wife noticed the help wanted sign advertising 12 dollars an hour starting um McDonald is paying more than that the local gas station is up to 13-14 starting and 2 dollars more for second or third shift. did notice the sign at McDonald's said Daily pay , I assume that means you punch out for the day and your pay is in your account the next day or even same day. America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

In Florida a bridge construction site on I-4 is shut down with a big HELP WANTED sign needing about 6 positions. Last edited by Gary Benson; 04/11/22 04:54 AM. Life ain't supposed to be easy.

That happens where I work, one of the new supervisors does that on the incident reports that he has to write. He went to a liberal arts college so it's not a shocker. The rest of us didn't go to college and our reports are much easier to read. These reports go to law enforcement and the gaming commission and they appreciate being able to understand them. He does the same thing in emails to us, he's getting a little better as time goes on but it's a struggle. He suffers from "extraneous polysyllabic circumlocution" Mike One man with a gun may control 100 others who have none. Vladimir Lenin

On the app on my phone, I can check inventory and find the exact location of what I'm looking for. If I can't load it on a flat bed, I won't be able to unload it when I get home.
