Tom, maybe you'll get a smile outta this: Went on an interview this morn up in Dundee, as the maintenance supervisor was looking over my resume he got down to the spot where it lists "other interests/ hobbies" ..... I had put down off roading and working on my Jeep. He had looked at several resumes and was refreshing his memory so when he got to that part he said "Oh, you're the guy that has the Jeep!" and smiled!!!! I told him "yes I've got a Jeep, Why? You drive a Jeep too?" He said yes it's the one right outside the window there and pointed at an almost stock TJ. I asked what he had done to it and he told me a 2" body lift and 31" MT tires. He asked me what I had ........... "A Liberty" I answered!! :lol:

Then he comes up with a smile and said ............. "Oh ...... That's not a real Jeep" :roll:

............................................I looked him right in the eye and said ................."Excuse me? You can kiss my butt! :shock:

I'll out wheel you any time!!!!! " :ROTFL:

After I got through telling him what had been done to mine so far, where I had wheeled it and what I was doing to it now he didn't have a whole lot to say except " well, I guess that answers my next question about your fabrication skills!" and just smiled real big!!!! :ROTFL:

We got along real well after that and he took me on a tour of the plant and told me after he talked to a couple more applicants he would call me after the 1st!!! I may have made an impression! I just hope it was the right kind! :SOMBRERO:

I either got myself a job ..... or guaranteed I won't get it. I hope it is the former!

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri Dec 24, 2010 9:40 am

Larry hope it impressed him enough to kick every other applicant to the curb! As lomg as he doesn't think you'll tell everyone there to kiss my "rear" :ROTFL:

Another week of waiting then
Good Luck
That wouldn't be too far to drive

Just wanted to say a quick Merry Christmas to you all.

Tom, Get well quick! I hope it wasn't all that working out in the cold last Friday that got you sick!

Larry, Good luck with getting that job...hopefully you didn't make him feel too inferior when you told him about your "projects".

(((Merry))) Christmas to all in Ohio...

I spent most of mine driving on the Interstate (I-75 and I-64) or driving in snow on the way back :shock:

Needless to say, I'm very tired. But the Jeep hit 59,000 today :ROTFL:

1,000 to go til next oil change and I should hit that in a couple weeks (or less) :mrgreen:

I made a couple of clocks out of others that I had back a few years ago, full ones with ring on, also made about ten coffee tables with glass tops, hole cut in the center for the hub to come up through. Turned out great sold most of them to people who were building log cabins. These sitting along the road going back down the lane are older busted/rotted ones that roses/ flowers grow up on in the summer.

Oh, I remember that number. It was about 13,000 miles ago.

Glad it's still treating ya well, Tom.

Cool pics too!

I really wonder what the actual mileage is though, it's about 6 mph off at 65 according to the GPS I'm at 71
been that way for several thousand miles now :shock:

tommudd · **Posted:** Mon Dec 27, 2010 8:58 am

No always was one of those things I thought I'd do next week.
Did check with a couple of dealers back 3 -4 years ago and neither knew what I was talking about so .......person who did my gears can do it as soon as both of us have time.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :pepper:

I GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Turns out.... being a smartass to the maintanance manager (see post pg264) and telling him he could "kiss my butt" and "My KJ can outwheel you any day of the week!" got me a job!!! :-)r

HR guy called me this morning and asked me to work for them. He told me that after I left the conference room where they interviewed me, "After you left, we were rolling! That just brought out your personality and showed us that you would be able to get along here because these guys are all smartalecks and you have to have kind of a thick skin to work here! "

:-)r

Kids .... don't try this at home! It could have very well backfired on me!!

But........................ WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mrgreen:
