dlnoss Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Yea, I'm kidding....I love my work. All I miss about regular employment is the perks like paid insurance, holidays, vacation and the occassional turkey or ham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledofthezep Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Yea, I'm kidding....I love my work. All I miss about regular employment is the perks like paid insurance, holidays, vacation and the occassional turkey or ham. 297583[/snapback] I hear ya...that's the only reason I'm still working where I am, eventhough they switched our insurance to some company that's a joke when it comes to covering anything. Even after I have my own business I want to be able to keep a decent job on the site to keep the insurance & benefits....that shit is expensive.

NugShee Posted December 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Man, sounds like some of you get as much of the shaft as I get. Sorry to hear about those of you that lost your jobs this time of year. Its a possibility that it may work out for the better though. Im mostly bitching cause of the mass money that my company makes. Maybe, I shouldnt say anything since we do get paid pretty well and we have full benifits with a company matched 401K. But the point is that They make more money in one day then Ill see in a lifetime (literally) and they couldnt even kick down some cash to those of us that make it happen on a daily basis. We work on average 55hours a week. but hey, I still have a job I guess. All I have to say is WEYERHAEUSER can lick my balls! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotton eyed Joe Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 I'm sure Dave's a lot like me... self employed. Sure, we can rake in the big bucks, but if shit hits the fan, there ain't no one to watch over us. And christmas bonus..... what's that? My christmas bonus is not getting work done over the holidays. Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas and wouldn't trade the holidays for anything. Merry Christmas. 297577[/snapback] Amen to that. I'm just thankful I don't have to punch a clock every damned day. I guess that would be my christmas bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
