    Default Moving

    Well, I will be moving back to my home state of Florida within the next two weeks. Been talking about it for a while and all things have been pointing us there. I walked out on my job yesterday on account of a bunch of bullshit. Felt real good. Trust me, I went out in style.

    Sarah and I will be moving in with my Dad until we find a place of our own. We're leaning towards Jacksonville (my home town). My Dad currently lives in High Springs which is about 1.5 hours from Jax. No job really secured yet, but I have enough money saved to last me a bit. Plus I won't have to pay rent.

    We figured it's best to move just because of our interest/hobbies and the lack of jobs here. I would just end up at another factory if I stayed here and I just can't do it anymore after 4 years. My body aches like a 90 year old.

    My long term plan is to possibly get a business degree and open a place of my own.

    I tell you, the thing I'm most excited about is the beer. It's like the freakin' prohabition down here.

    All things considered, it sounds like this is the best move. That is cool that you are choosing your future instead of just waiting around for it to choose you. You will be further ahead in the long-run. More beer, more cigars, more jobs, and maybe a new band. Can't go wrong with any of the above.

    In all seriousness, if you or your better half are seeking jobs in the JAX area, let me know. My company has a sizeable campus there and I know a few people.

    Good luck, Chris!

    The top guy at the factory just called me and apologized. He finally saw that what was happening was not my fault and was a problem in another department. He said he learned a very valuable lesson about listening to what we have to say. He said he was wrong and I did nothing to deserve what happened and offered my job back. I told him thank you for apologizing but no thanks on the job.

    Thanks for the job advice, SLC. I might just have to hit you up if I get in a pinch.

    Dude did you a favor, sounds like. Be vigilant, but don't worry. These things fill in from behind, like when you dig a hole at the beach. Something at least as good will turn up.

    Congrats on getting out of the factory. Be easier to dive this winter too.
