Work with fun mixed in

The phone was ringing this morning telling me it was time to get out of bed and into the shower. I had left a 4:45 wake up call at the desk last night and sure enough they came through for me. I really was not ready to get up but then that did not mater I had to.

Sherri was still sleeping when I slipped into the shower for my morning wake up. I have to stand under the shower for some time and then drink great quantities of coffee to get myself on the road to work.

We both got dressed this morning in record time and when I looked at the clock it was just 6:00 am. Breakfast is not served until 6:00 so we had to kill some time. I read some journals and posted on mine. This took up some time and when it was time to go down stairs and get my free breakfast coupon I found that there was several people waiting in line to check in. We have to be at work at 7:00 and I get a breakfast to go, which requires me to get down there get my coupon fix my to go box jump in the truck and get to work in about 15 minutes which leaves me 15 minutes to eat! Today with all the folks in line at the desk I just had to go to the buffet and see if they would let me eat without the coupon. Sure enough the lady saw my plight and let me go.

We arrived at the store and I had about 10 minutes to eat my breakfast...which is no problem for me and I finished in record time. I got our tools and went to work and finished up around 5:00. Then it was time to head back to the hotel. When we arrived we met up with some of the others in our crew and we decided to eat at Sam's Town Buffet. I call the the shuttle and we road over there and were dropped off at the front door. Ate our dinner and took the shuttle back to the hotel. It sure was nice not having to get back in the truck and drive.

Notice I did not say we stayed and gambled because we didn't. That is correct we saved our money for...

I hope you like this job more then the last one. Those early hours would be very hard to do if you hate the job. Is the end in sight yet?

Nothing like a man on a mission - and your mission was to get that free breakfast. GO FOR IT SPEEDY!
