    Dude I bushwhacked through some woods to get to a river 2 days ago. I got the worst case of poison oak I've ever got in my life. I had go get oral steroids. I'm not even that allergic to that stuff . 1st time in my life I've ever used oral steroids. Thank God I got them Because every hour the crap kept moving 1 or 2" further down my arms toward my heart

    Elon Musk needs to STFU about specific types of crypto. That's 2x in a week he's made public comments that caused one to crash. Insider trading MFer.

    I did that once... Got all sweaty pulling poison ivy vines out before they leaved. Had the rash all over my face (wiping sweat), ears, eyes, arms, legs, groin...

    2 rounds of steroids, $something else + ointments...

    Yeah it sucks. Should clear up in a couple weeks.

    Take the longest hottest shower you can stand then apply the steroid cream.

    The NBA is stupid, the scoring title is not the person that scores the most points in a season it is the person with the highest average scoring per game. A player only has to play 59 games and can win the scoring title.

    People that do not keep their word and do what they say they will do. When you have a discussion with a person who is dying and they make final requests you do what you said you were going to do, you honor their wishes like you promised. When I see that you do not honor those wishes because it is just easier for you not to, you too are dead to me. I am to the point where life is getting short and I will not spend a minute dealing with people that are not worth my time.

    Passed a pure bred, pedigreed dumbass in the right lane this morning. He was a canadian truck driver with his hood up going slow in the left lane. Makes me want to get a CB.

    And here I thought it was only retirees who did that, clogging the fast lane for my drive home from work on 17 North. They put themselves there because they have to make a left a few more miles down the road at various and sundry HOA tiny box communities. I find it annoying that they enforce the 55 MPH from the fast lane.

    Mandatory 12 hour shifts Monday thru Saturday with Sunday optional.

    For all of the Pro Biden folks clamoring that Biden is creating jobs vs replenishing Trumps vanquished jobs via Covid-19, These hours are being created because foundries have been shut down due to Covid and are now reopening. It isn't a new wave or surge in purchases, it's fulfilling past purchases delayed by the lockdowns from Covid-19.

    Customers already purchased their goods, got delayed globally, and now that things are opening back up they are epecting all orders to ship immediately.

    Sucks to be me the next few months, after that I expect Biden's policies will start to take their course...

    Please let Golden State beat the Lakers and put whining Lebron out of the playoffs. That is all.

    That is a huge bone of contention between my son and I. I say stfu you have a high school education and get paid to play a game you have never been part of the real world struggle. My son thinks he has this podium and his option means something more than the average man.

    I love when I get a return e-mail when I extended to cover for an employee and the client cancelled and then wants a quick reschedule on a commission of a system and gets an answer they do not agree with and tells me connect me with your boss. I don't have god's phone number *****.

    It is more that I think he should shut up and dribble and my son thinks he has his place to use his influence.

    We're in the same boat. Got something like 3m feet of pipe needed by sept 1. So pretty much if you wanna work just show up, unlimited ot for anyone. Pretty sure any manufacturing company is gonna be non stop all summer trying to catch up from shutdown.

    You know I took on a huge finical commitment to honor my Dad's wishes that the company provide a future and stability for the employees. Bunch of entitled, ungrateful, selfish, complaining a-holes. I can sell at anytime take my $ and go home and then you can work for some capital investment firm that will fire your ass if you underperform for a quarter.
