    If you have to train 3 people to do one job then maybe you should just keep the original employee.....

    F that!!!

    We are going from 4 people to 1 and some helpers. There is no way that person can do it all.

    One person is going to take over 90% of my production planning work. One will take over the remaining 10% along with their current work plus a few other duties. The 3rd will take my work for our prototype group along with their current work.

    They all will be as busy as a one legged man at an ass kicking.

    Me? I' m going to relax and work around the farm. My wife retired today.

    So, time to start our second honeymoon if you get my meaning.

    I am on day 3 of having my trulicity and or ozempic medication back ordered ! These are major diabetic drugs, they work well, I placed my refill order 11 days ago, I am now on day 3 of not having ANY ! Also none to be had anywhere in central Wi. WHY YOU ASK ? The fat rich and famous have found out Ozempic is great for losing weight, SO THE FAT WEALTHY ARE BUYING IT UP ! Plus their doctors are providing prescriptions. SO NOW DIABETICS WHO NEED THESE DRUGS ARE GOING WITHOUT ! WHICH MEANS WE DIE SO THE FAT WEAlTHY CAN LOOK SVELT

    Being Keto which actually has been reversing type2 in some ppl. I have feared that diabetics in need of monitoring devices and strip may not be able to get them. This because it has almost become a fad for you tubers on these diets to promote buying these products so the companies increase profit and give them free product. I have a nephew with type 1 it's a real concern when Dr. Do not consider the consequences of giving in to pressure

    Pet peeve of mine. If I send you an email that is important and especially if I am paying you money, respond saying you received the email unless you have a quick resolution to my issue in under a couple days.

    Here's a CONSPIRACY theory for you. hope the bold helps there:

    The weoponization of weather reports against you.
    It's gotten worse over the last few years. I will say for all the complaints it was probably just incompetence years past. Now it couldn't possibly be this far off on such a consistent manner without being intentional. Farmers, foresters, builders, highway construction,hunters, home gardeners the list is long of those that literally depend on accuracy in forecasts. Example
    Planning on timber cutting or planting. Winds and precipitation are nessasary!
    They have called for rain the last 2 days...Zero they called for high winds...very little . All the above professions have to do planning when you plan a concrete pour or roofing or tilling on a dry day then it pours. A field spray, Timber cut and the calm day turns out to be 15 mph with 30 gust well that cost money, delays work and shuts things down. Shuts down disrupts financially depleats...infrastructure.
    So many ways to destroy a country from the inside out....just saying

    You keep that ****!! We are being told 15" for my area. This is the biggest storm since 4/15/18 when we got 25" of wet snow in blizzard conditions.

    Now, I will have to fire up the snowmobile to pack down the trails to skid out logs. I needed some snow...NOT this much!

    and I have customers that will not get their product until next week if we get that much snow. Normal transit time is 1-2 days.

    What's up with all the explosions and fires across the country. Also has there actually been any details or real investigations released on causes . Obviously at least insurance investigators would have good investigations before payouts.

    Depending on your email tool, check to see if you can request a read receipt...at least you'd may know it was opened...

    Our great leader Gov Walz declared a peace time emergency to combat the storm in the name of climate change, nobody should have to battle cold and snow in Minnesota in February.
