off to the Salt Mines!

 

[Putembk]

Just took me 30 minutes of reading to catch up. I need to find a clip board, hard hat and badge to fit in here.

 

[buzzmobile]

wish I kept my badge when I was a crossing guard at 6th grade.

I had one when I was a park ranger. It came with a Stetson too.

 

[Gray Wolf]

haven't worn a hard hat in years. the 80's i was a ironworker, late 90's i rebuilt railroad coal cars. all the rest of my working life has been spent in machine shops, that is till they figure out i can do what ever i want, and what ever comes through the door..

I wore one as a roustabout in offshore drilling as well as when an engineer in ship repair. Since then only when visiting certain places that it's a good idea,

I was a land surveyor for a long time and can attest to the power of the clipboard.
It works on everyone nearly everywhere and has taken me places I wouldn't have ever been allowed without one.

The sales manager for a company that I worked for and shall forever remain unnamed, put on a hard hat and with a clip board toured our direct competitors shop counting equipment and product, while gazing up at the fire suppression system.

wish I kept my badge when I was a crossing guard at 6th grade.

Back when a badge really meant something!

More up-potting and chopping down a SnowCaine today.
Taking my daughter and SIL out for Christmas dinner tonight. The are going to the in laws for Christmas.

 

[SubGirl]

that is what my oldest son does , Quality Assurance manager at a survival,company

They don’t like to see us with our clipboards

 

[dogzter]

The hood hated it when I showed up to do anything.
Always the same the Homies quit slinging rock cuz they think the transits a camera and we are leo.
If it takes too long the crackheads start coming up and asking how much longer?

I would stand there smoking a giant joint blatantly and still the same.
I blamed the clipboard.

You guys get started really early in the morning. The earliest I get up is 8 o’clock in the morning because I do not get to sleep until the small hours. Before they started cutting on me, I would get up at 5:30 every morning and be at the office at 6:45. I did that for 35 years and now I’m in the rocking chair, enjoying the fruits of my labors and my two boys…

this place reminds me of atlanta at rush hour...long gone are the days of knowing almost everybody that posts and some knowledge of all posts that are current...it's difficult to just check on what's new because there are a zillion threads...I miss the intimacy but not the lies and deceit that became prevalent there...I certainly burned the bridge with hippie and angie, called both liars many times on my last night...they're just sad people with no lives...my post count is very low, it's hard to keep up with such a large community...I enjoy you guys, the core of my friends online are yourselves...if this group were to dissapear my posting would cease...I'm sure there is plenty I don't know about growing flowers but I'm not learning much as of late...

 

[dogzter]

Lay down at midnight toss like a rotisserie chicken until 6:30 then get up........very consistent with that for a long time now.

That sounds like one of my nights, but I finally just get out of bed at 2 AM and head out to the back porch with Ivan to hit the bong a couple of rips and I go back to sleep and I’m out… what bothers me the most is I’m in my deepest REM sleep when the alarm goes off at 8 o’clock. If I try to lay in bed with a heating pad, my body starts to ache so I have to get up and get moving… that’s the price we pay for playing too hard in our youth

As for myself - it's jolly good to be around other like minded flatulent geriatrics - some more functional physically or mentally than others - I seem to fit right in - - so you are all welcome to hang out and shoot breezes - for however long it takes your fancy -

Thanks for letting us hang out here. You can tell we are just a bunch of homeless rejects. All have been around the block more than once.

I am having a real good time.

 

[Putembk]

I will say this....we apologize ....it is hard to not talk politics on this thread....lots of infuriating shit going on in this world right now.
Don't mean to break the rules....damn potheads...ha ha!

 

[Gypsy Nirvana]

If you feel the need to talk about politics or religion we do have The Speakers Corner - forum - near The Tokers Den -

Speakers Corner

A place for civilized debates and polite discussion on anything and everything within reason.

thanks for having us gypsy, it's comfortable to be around other reprobates and misfits...it was easy for me at OG when I had the keys to the kingdom...I've gotten older, slower, and crankier...I thoroughly enjoy the banter with like minded folks...
