On retirement: I get bored some days, when the weather is bad, but I got bored some days at work. I prefer to be bored at home.

Today the weather is nasty, but I've got a good book, the fiddle, WII exercising, and annoying to be done in the Off Topic Forum.

White death on, white death changes to rain then back to white death.


I too am puzzled about a transgender bathroom, but my head would hurt if I thought about it too much.
In some places, there is only one bathroom and it must be shared by all. Maybe that's the answer?
 
I dealt with the local Tax collector/Assessor's office over property taxes, I speak fluent Bureaucratic and turned their words against them. After 20 minutes of a twisting, circular conversation, they saw it my way and cut a full third off my tax bill.
Our local credit union got eaten by another outfit, they gave very little notice and screwed up everything. So I annoyed them with a flurry of e-mails, phone calls and after seeing a couple dozen people standing in the rain, waiting to go in, I called and made an appointment for the dreaded personal visit. Bastards!
The ton of wood was fuel for the pelletstove, had to stack it in the shed, on top of the half ton already there. 50 40# semi-droopy bags, lift, carry and flung on the stack.
 
The agency where I work received a request yesterday to turn one of our restrooms into a transgender restroom. Will that work for a descriptive process? Retiring on July 19th. Can't come soon enough!:bang:

Does that mean different types of trees :jester:

Spent nearly 90 minutes on the road getting to a site and finding one part of the road heading up there just a little soft for the trucks and then waiting for three hours to getting the word to start or go home

Oh and it was raining when I left the house then when we got there white death was spewing when we left the site

Atleast I don't have to wash my clothes :msp_w00t:

I had to go to DMV today to renew my driver license. Anyone living in Kalifornia knows that is usually not a pleasant experience, but I had an appointment so I just hoped for the best. The non-appointment line was about 20 deep but the appointment line was vacant. That was the first bit of good news. I received my number in less than a minute and sat down with 25 or so other people. Hmm. My number was call inside of 2 minutes! More good news. Now I had to deal with a DMV human. And guess what? He was great! I was out the door in less than 10 minutes and the people at the end of the line when I arrived were still in line.

Now I'm just waiting for a call to go to work. Next week would be cool.

No. That thing is long gone. I was digging through some pictures for a family reunion and found that and a bunch of Stearman and N-3N and other stuff.

There's quite a few pilots on here. I thought maybe they'd like a look at a real flying machine's cockpit. Such as it is.

Transgender restroom? They have special needs? Never mind, don't answer that. Some things, the less I know about the happier I'm gonna be. :msp_rolleyes:

And hang in there for the retirement. Retirement is like every day being Saturday.

Hmm. Maybe they should order a porta-potty to use for the "transgender" folks.

I don't think I want to retire anymore. Saturday is the day I have to go to the job by myself, and play mechanic on all the equipment while every one else is off playing somewhere.
I don't like playing mechanic that much.

Since we have started a new year, we should strive for a more positive outlook. The purpose of this thread is for

WHINING, as only foresters and loggers know how to do. But the new title puts a positive spin on our ordinary whining and therefore unwhines it.....

Continue on. What analytical processes did you go through today?

My feet got wet today.

Looks like you've got another hit Patty. :clap:

I have no idea what the transgender types would like to have in "their" restroom. I just know us facilities guys are trying hard to kill the idea. We have a lot of things that need to be done that have a MUCH higher priority. Although we could probably amuse ourselves trying to come up with what to put on the door.
 
Never mind. Let them have all the men's rooms in the world if they want to. The world is our toilet.
 
it took 2 weeks for the snow to get rained off.

I got to a wide spot on the road before I did the 180 to head back down the hill after powering out. This is much preferred to doing the 180 in a section of road that isn't a wide spot. This is below the narrow spot where the rear end slides into the ditch as I agressively power up the hill waiting for the wheel in the ditch to catch & send me straight across the road... & down to the road on the creek. 600 feet below.

There was training about that going on at a campfire celebration I attended. A boy, about 6 years old came out of the house complaining that the bathroom was busy. The men instructed and showed him the proper protocol of going behind the woodshed, and explained the World Toilet theory but also added that it was a rural thing.

He was getting Man lessons.
 
I've been six weeks off cigarettes and other smokes now. Everything has gone quite smooth, considering that I've been a die hard nicotine junkie through my adult life. Just one thing the books and web sites don't mention about. Refueling. How are you supposed to fill the gas tank or the jug without a proper smoke curtain? The gas fumes are bad for your health, aren't they?

Rural??? I guess they forgot to fill me in on that part. :dizzy:
