man........i've been SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO busy that i don't even get to do email and lj, hardly. i work, i eat, i talk to my baby, and i sleep. that's about it.
Can hardly wait to go see Melanie again....11 days and counting! and i went and bought some cool stuff this week for the trip. ;)) i'm totally stoked.
yesterday was sooooooo boring. we were running felt at work rather than "90 pound", which is our slang for the roll roofing. Felt runs much lighter, but also much slower. In a good 8 hours running 90, we can make 100 pallets or better. Running felt, we're lucky to get 45 to 50 pallets, if we're running the lightest weight we have, which also runs fastest. We started out running the faster "GAP 30" and had 10 pallets in the first two hours. Then we switched over to a heavier paper that had to run slower, and cranked out 25 pallets in the remaining 7 hours of the shift. we cut off early because there was no second shift running. Starting this week, no weekends, but still on 12-hour days M-F. :P
the biggest problem was that although it was the weekend and i have my new phone, it wasn't activated yet, so i didn't get to talk to Mel, so i was bored ALL FREAKING DAY! i was about to go out of my mind. lol.
well, not much else to say...working 60+ hours a week at GAP leaves me not able to say much. Other than if you ever go to Lowe's and see G.A.P. Roofing, Inc. Mineral Surfaced Roll Roofing...think of me and the guys who make this stuff.
