I'm an electrician at a lumber mill. Mostly industrial construction and maintaining the existing equipment. We also have a power generation facility fueled by the wood by products. Never boring.
Todd, I'm certain you have the best job I could ever want. 7 on, 7 off, retire at 45. Heck, Leonard won't even have a chance to burn through all our SS by the time you retire. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
After seeing Dan and Sandy this summer, I envy you Todd. He had to retire a little later than you will but still way before most folks. We were busting a couple beers by the pool a couple weeks ago and he was saying how great retirement was. People told him he would be bored. He said "that's BS, it's heaven!" I'll be working up till a few hours before I die I'm sure. lol!
Good hunting

Understanding the coyote is not as important as knowing where they are.
I usually let the fur prime up before I leave 'em lay.

Leonard I hope your not eating?
I had a fella in the max/max unit that was little to creative. So they remodeled his sell, retro fit with a concrete bunk, just a light(with no switch) a toilet that he couldn't flush(Because he flooded to much, and a sprinkler head that wouldn't have worked any way with all the protection they covered it with. He would call us when he needed the toilet flushed, and we did that from outside the cell. this is where you quit eating........
He would sh** and Pi** in that thing mix it up with his hand making a soup. Heres the kicker....we would flush the toilet prior to serving him chow, we would then have him back up to the door to cuff so we could open, search, and feed him chow. As soon as we entered the room.......he spit this S&P soup at us that he had been holding his mouth for about 15 minutes, Yipper! would stick his head in the toilet to get a mouth full before chow was served. Needless to say this only happened once...I hope. Been a bunch of newbies since. One might even be AZ's buddy.
There was one guy that would SH** then cover his walls windows and him from head to toe in the dark colored camo, and we would have to suit up and go in after him. I'll leave that for another day.
But as far as getting piss thrown on ya....a couple times a year anyway.
AZ.......I think we talked about your buddy once way back in chat. He is in Seward right? I still havent met him.
Curt buddy tell Dan I'm counting the days. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
My other full time job is being Uncle Jays favorite nephew. ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)

I maintain 12 people (three crews) and all the equipment necessary to drill horizontal oil wells. 7 on, 7 off. If there's any equipment problems anytime during my 7 days there, I handle it. It's a 24-7 job.
People like "Dogleg" live on the rig floor so to speak, and do all the necessary calculations and tell the brake handle operators what to do to keep the bit and bottom hole assembly in check with where the oil is. Sometimes money zones are as thin as 12 inches.
A very feast or famine occupation(s) to say the least.

No Dennis, not the case. Besides I couldn't possibly compete with you.

Higgins has the job I want when I die and go to heaven. Putters around the house, all day. His own boss. And hunts half of the week. That's it! I'm jealous.
Good hunting. LB
We should start a new thread. "See any job you would like to trade?" (that turnkey job looks tempting)

Years ago, when my daughter was in kindergarden, I came home from work one morning after a rough night. At the breakfast table, she asked me what I did for a living. Not thinking, I told her "Your daddy shovels snow in a salt mine." How was I supposed to know that all of the little ankle biters were going to be getting up in front of the class one at a time, and telling what their parents did for a living? Made quite an impression on the teacher who had spent the morning hearing; My daddy is a policeman, My daddy ***** cars, My daddy is a supervisor, My daddy shovels snow in a salt mine.
