Drag that so many shoe stores aren't into 1st class
service. Back in Oct got some new Red Wing boots.
They asked about the pressure points; since I could leave them
over the week-end, assorted strechers were left in the
boots and when I picked them up, they where very
comfortable from the start.
Wakeing up to start my day. On second cup o' joe.biggrin
Breaking in my new full time job. [ kinda miss temping]
Last week was soloing.
By end of the week felt fairly good about the change.
Now just going through getting the tractor back from
too lax maintainence.

Thanks! I'm slowly putting back together my tool kit that got left behind with my ex. I'm getting a little bit more than a few simple tools, I still work on computers so I had to get an air compressor. biggrin Nothing fancy, but it gets the job done.

I actually moved to Levan, which is 10 miles south of Nephi. So I didn't move to much further away. Lol. I'm wanting to move back to Nephi, or even a bit further north, like payson, Provo, maybe even American Fork, if I can find a place that will accept smokers and pets. smile That's the hardest part, finding people who will accept dogs. They don't mind lizards or fish much, but when it comes to the furry four legged ones, they panic (though they aren't with out reason most of he time).

I need to meet some fellow Utah SG'ers!

And I would love some time off work too Haha, but I guess staying busy keeps us out of trouble huh? ;-P

I have a week of Ballet's Nutcracker starting on Monday ... other than that, just a concert or two ... It slows down like this every year for us. So I pretty much plan for it, some of us call it "Vacation Time" ... if you are smart enough to save $ and book early ...

pretty much everything was on wheels, ... carts, hampers, gondolas ... we even had to fork 3/4 of it onto the truck.
but the shit is HEAVY, and doesn't roll easy. Some pieces had to be pulled up a 6% grade out of the Theater by winch, onto a flatbed Tow-Truck, then taken out to the street, onto a flatbed trailer, and pushed into the Traveling Trailer ... pics tomorrow when I upload them wink
We had 2 teams of 6 truckloaders ... average about 1 1/2 hrs per trailer ... but the shuffle of trailers was what took the time. (I think I have some pics of the "dock" situation ... WAIT! ... there is no DOCK! eeek )
and yes, with the team, ... we all know how to 4-Man lift a box/case, by the corner ... it's just the long hours that can kill you blackeyed
... not to mention ... this was a 32 show run, in 4 weeks ... 8 shows a week, 6 days a week ... I have had only Mondays off, in the past month ... I even turned down work, Dispatch called me to work, Twice!, on those Mondays ...

and yes ... living in LV ... I was not doing as well, as I am here, now ... being gone for 5 years, and paying my Union dues - keeping my Seniority - moving back was a smart move. I just wished LV was "The Entertainment Capitol of the World", as it's advertised to be ...
littlejohn22:
I agree, it's not the early starts it's the long hours... why is this not considered when shows are booked... did a 4:30 am call and finished at 2:30am the next day... 1 break, and dinner on the fry floor during levels... I feel your pain that you will be feeling tomorrow...smile
