Yay, its friday! Well after I got moved over to my new position the very next night I started pulling trim for the last two hours of work. The graders were impressed, I didnt miss a single board and I knew all the marks. One of the graders makes some confusing marks but I have gotten the hang of it anyways. So now every hour I switch off with the other guy from straightening boards to pulling trim and making marks when the graders need it, and keep the lug loader running, and running down and waiting for the go signal when we get a yellow light which means a cross over down the way. I like it, I am never tired anymore. Much better conditions, when I come home im not all plugged up with sawdust in my nose and everywhere else. I dont get all that dang sawdust down my pants, which let me tell you...is not comfortable. No crawling across the tables anymore, very very sweet deal. Plus the graders are nice, actually everything over on that part of the mill is nicer, more laid back. I am happy with my job. Even if we have been short handed the past few nights, with people going home sick or what not. Nick is my new boss, so that is a big bonus. Its nice having a boss you know, makes it easier to ask questions and figure things out. Anyways, that is my little bit of an update before work. My mom gets home today, which is good, cause she can help me take stuff to my apartment wednesday. Xbox 360 is looking sweet...especially the car games.
