Need to find that again and see if anything else has been posted

No doubt. They were/are some awesome craftsman. Plus not only that they worked with sandals on like someone else I know :jester:

Man looking into do this home rewire job I have learned tons. I also am thinking I am going to have this company I talked to this morning come on out and give me a quote. I know I can save tons of money doing it on my own but dealing with household electrical, permit, inspection and the grief/time of doing it, I am not sure it would be worth the savings. Not only that they stand behind their work 100% and have an A+ rating with the BBB since 1989. Over the phone a rough quote is $1,500-$5,000. I looked in to the wire and material and figured somewhere from $300-$1,000 with permit and inspection. So is it worth doing it myself, starting to think not unless you can convince me otherwise :shock:

<----shocking, right?!?!?!?! :-)r

Believe it or not worked as a electrician on new and remodels back in the early 80s
so some experience
But with you working full time, trying to pull wires through some almost impossible spaces, permits, inspections etc.
Be a lot easier /safer/faster/less mess just to have a crew come in and knock it out in a few days and be done.
Just the lack of frustration / cuts/ sore muscles etc would be worth it

So.....
wondering how Buggin likes his new hours
Did you stay awake ? :ROTFL:

BugginKJ · **Joined:** Mon Jul 06, 2009 7:35 pm **Posts:** 4576

Wide awake. Tons of work, was told I do too much work and HAVE to slow down :shock:

If I worked any slower I would be :dead:

I asked him if he wanted to see me work faster :goink:

I really don't like the hours but at least I'll get my weekends back and some sort of normal sleep pattern, for me any how. Who needs more than 6 hours of straight sleep? First time in a long time for me, sacked out at 12 and up at 6 like wow what just happened? :ROTFL:

tommudd · **Posted:** Tue Jan 08, 2013 9:23 am

Maybe no shopping if I can hurry up and sneak out the door :twisted:

tommudd · **Posted:** Tue Jan 08, 2013 10:21 am

run fast and get out of there!!!

BugginKJ · **Joined:** Mon Jul 06, 2009 7:35 pm **Posts:** 4576

I did and at any rate she changed her mind at the last minute, so I got lucky and so did my wallet. Great place to shop for just about everything but it seems I can NEVER get out of there without spending dang near $300 every time :banghead:

Now to go and do everything else I need to get done today before work :roll:

tommudd · **Posted:** Tue Jan 08, 2013 1:04 pm

Haven't been in a Sams or any of those "clubs" for 5 or 6 years at least.
So are you on afternoons for good now?

For the next year until the next shift bid comes out or if something should change with another employee and they rebid the shifts. This change of hours is going to take some serious getting used to :dizzy:

At least I got to kiss both my lil bears this morning before they left for school. Once they get out of school for summer break it won't be so bad and then also have the weekends for family fun. 3rd shift I would see them for a short time before I left for work at night. Now this 2nd shift I see them for a short time before they go to school and not at all at night until I get home to see them in bed :roll:

. The bonus of 2nd shift is a normal sleep schedule I can TRY and get on plus the normal weekend hours instead of tweaking my sleep from the 3rd schedule and being 1/2 awake when trying to something with the family. I was always late to bed and early to rise, so it fits my style. It will be a couple years or more before I'll even see 1st shift, of course unless something happens with other employees on first shift or other employees with more seniority than me. It's just part of having this job getting to 1st shift,but the benefits and great work environment all make up for it. I really can't complain at all. :pepper:

Gotto go clear the mind before work and get some breeze in the knees is just in order :pepper:

Funny how some pictures take you right back in time
Found some old picture's of my 79 F150 Shortbed
bought new in 79, local dealer couldn't sell it
so I got a great deal , miss the old girl
351 modified with 4 speed running 38s on wagon wheels
Dana 44/9 inch with 4.56s, 1st was creeper gear, but pull out on the road, in 1st, slap 2nd burn through it and hit 3rd still smoking the tires.
Yep it got used for work and play

Down at Daytona playing on the dunes ( Bike Week 1980) :ROTFL:

That is SWEET! I always loved that model - short bed, stepside - and then you make it sweeter with the meats and wheels. Whew, bet that was fun! :BANANA:

P.S. Didn't know you could order the optional jug that year... :ROTFL:

Bob

tommudd · **Posted:** Tue Jan 08, 2013 9:03 pm

Actually I think that was the third jug, drank the "optional" one also on the way south :ROTFL:

Buddy of ours made us all 4 jugs each of homemade grape wine for the trip that year.

Tom, just replied to you over on Jeep Forum.

I'm game for a M&G over here in the next month to 6 weeks - Summit Racing is 10-15 minutes away, 4 WD Hardware is about 40 minutes away, my garage is heated and somebody's bound to need SOMETHING installed or fixed, right?

Any takers, gang?

Bob
