On Sunday Cathy & I had a little fun at work.
It was a beautiful day and we decided to make it fun.
Took a bunch of photos and had Mike take a few as well.
We were even allowed into the wheelhouse for a photo but I can't show it here.
Then on Monday the MEBA engineers had a sick out with 23 people calling out sick and only 5 of 18 boats running. Most of the day was fine but toward evening an old lady got in my face & started blaming US. I tried to be nice to her, really did, but once you start blaming people who are actually AT WORK for the boats not running, that's BS. So I walked away and told her if she's going to be that way she can just leave.
It was very stressful, just knowing that someone could/would start bitching at us and then a few issues with loading cars, nothing big but weirdness. Then we had SO MANY walk-on people coming to the wrong place. OPs called at 2:55 to cancel the 3:00, making it the 4:15, then we were supposed to have a 7:55 but it got cancelled at literally the last minute. That's the boat the old lady was supposed to get on and if it had run, she wasn't in her car and would have missed it anyway. Bitch.
I stand with the engineers and do not blame them one bit, they haven't had more than a 2% raise in the last 4 years and the state doesn't want to give them one for another 2 years. That's bullshit.
We're leaving Thursday to go up to Whistler, Canada for their Thanksgiving with Lans cousins. Last year we were there & they had a shit ton of drama, I hope the asshole DIL gets her shit together and can relax this year.
