The Nissan Leaf Gets a New Rear Axle

Things are going great. I have an offer in on a house on Lake Lanier. I may get the deal going (picture follows) for the future Winter place, but I am looking at another one on the Lake Saturday after my flying lesson.

Although I am a bit lonely, there are all sorts of connections I can count on. My Sister came up from FL for a visit.

I joined a fitness center today (even though work and the apt complex have fitness centers). It was only 10 bucks a month. I was paying 40 a month in Greene NY. It is nice to have an exercise place that is not work and not home.

I gave myself a busy schedule for the next couple of weeks. Sunday I am off to Finland, second half of the week in England. The week after it is Brazil. One of the interesting things about my travel is that I get out into the non-metropolitan areas. I should have some great pics and stories. I am looking forward to some Scandinavian fish and especially some Brazilian steak house food. It has been a long time! Most of all I am looking to getting some meaningful work done.

There isn't a day that goes by that I don't see where things now are so much better than they were at The Raymond Corporation. I am challenged, have a great boss and spend my time in a growing and non-decaying enterprise.

Five indications that it is a good time to look for a new job.

5. The bosses frequently say “I don’t care.”

4. The bosses are replaced with people from a totally different industry.

3. Sales are down 50% and the number of executives is up 50%.

2. Your new boss whines and has less management experience than you do.

1. Executives use the word “fuck” as punctuation in providing direction and its use seems to make them feel better about themselves.
