It's been interesting day...

We have family and staff covering up bad behaviour exhibited by certain fucked up family members!! Staff too shit scared of saying anything that rocks the family.. and the family too busy blowing smoke up each others nether regions!!

You should have better control in a State run business. Do you guys have worker's Unions?

I thought the state of Utah was a family business?

Mine has been drained 3 times. Twice with the trunk left open, and once when it sat in the shop for a month waiting for replacement SC. I have it on a trickle now. I'll probably replace it this summer for piece of mind.

I had my own dead battery adventure this morning. My beater hunting rig has been sitting the last couple months. My brother needed me to move it to get to his enclosed trailer. Dead battery, and I don't have door keys, only the fob. Which is probably not a good thing for a vehicle I take miles up into the woods. Spent 20 mins getting it unlocked so I could jump it this morning in the rain.

You're over-thinking it. We've always done ti that way.

Haha... "mostly working." I'm the king of that game.

Mine's on its way out. One of the middle cells has been getting stubborn since summer. I'm being equally stubborn. I'll replace it after a couple bump starts.

We had a going-away lunch planned today at work for the office admin and out of 8 people 2 or 3 are flaking.

And they're the usual flakes.

Like what on earth causes people to be so immature? Either block off the time in advance (since we knew this was being planned and you were saying you'd be able to go) or don't start planning it with everybody else.
