It’s 2:30 pm on an overcast, chilly Sunday and I’m sitting here at the plant. We work here 7 days a week – and at least 8 hours a day. So, the whole concept of the weekend is foreign to me when I’m out here. It’s kind of like the whole “if a tree falls

Relieved
A few posts ago, I wrote about a friend of mine who was in a troubled relationship – one in which I feared that I would have to be the mediator/whistle blower. I found myself backed into a corner in which I could only emerge with the inquisition and exploitation of truth. I didn’t want
Too Many Travel Options!
Yo, I got way too many travel options. I know that it is a good problem to have, but how exactly will I utilize all these options? I can get a free one-way ticket with Airtran (A+ plus rewards) or use those points on a business class upgrade. I still have a free roundtrip voucher
"zero….one"
All I did for the past hour was speak into a radio and constantly repeat “zero…….one”. We were testing some alarms. Basically, when an alarm goes off, I will see it on the screen and I say “zero” to confirm that, and when it goes away, I say “one” to confirm. It was actually the
Valentine’s Day
Another year, another Valentine’s Day gone by. For the most part, I think if you ain’t got nobody (like me), then Valentine’s is just another day on the calendar – nothing more, nothing less. But, I’m not like some single folks who straight hate on those that are fortunate enough to have someone special in
Cold, Wet, And Rainy
The title above pretty much describes the weather over here in Chester. It’s pretty shitty – and with all this construction going on out here, it’s fairly muddy too. But, who am I to complain? I’m straight chilling indoors in a well ventilated room in my Paul Bunyanesque jacket while technicians and construction workers are
Old Grand Dad and Farkle
I just got done playing a game of farkle (I think that’s how you spell it) with a couple of my co-workers at the company’s apartment. We were sipping on some Old Grand Dad Bourbon Whiskey (never heard of it until today) and rolling die. It was fun seeing some of my co-workers loosen up
Back In Chester
So, I just arrived in Chester a few hours ago. This is another one of those two week stints. Now, I have to readjust myself to doing diddley squat. The flight this morning was packed and I found myself sandwiched between a big dude and a small dude – right smack in the middle of
In a ‘Frisco State of Mind
A few days ago, I finally made official what I’ve been trying to make reality over the past six months: I booked my plane ticket to San Francisco to visit my sister. My cousin Tesh from Jersey will meet me over on the Left Coast. I am really excited about going – I heard some
Gettin’ Paid – Conservatively
Now, I’m all about the principle and getting paid what I’m worth. I’m also about maximizing whatever capital I have into whatever profit I can receive. Here’s the thing, right now, I don’t have enough time to invest in the stock market – I want to be as thorough and knowledgeable as possible about the
