Opened a bottle of homemade Blue Berry Brandy a little while ago I got off the mechanic that inspects my truck. I've had it before and it was good but this bottle seems to pack more of a punch and go down faster than the others

My programmer didn't come in yesterday. Now it says it will be here tomorrow!! Kind of mad at UPS. Now I will have to wait till Sunday when I'm off again to install it.

I never had a problem sleeping at my old job and I knew exactly when I was starting


Sitting around for 9 hours is far worse than working for 9 hours. Time stands still.

Oh yea, just sat there watching the clock tick away. It felt like the shift shouldve been almost done but we were only 3 hours in

Where I spent most of my time, dont get too jealous of my yellow pants tho

Yea, there been once or twice we have been down and they knew they were not going to start up and let guys go home if they wanted but they thought they were going to be able to start production but as soon as they got one thing fixed another thing broke....

I work on a coke oven battery, we cook coal into coke to feed our blast furnaces that make iron
This is pretty much what our batteries look like but dirtier and more fire

My fancy mustard colour clothing is flame retardant and my respirator is on the table in front

That's cool, I recall the process from somewhere? I think it was history class lol.

How large are those batteries or how many ovens ? They look to be a good size.
