And we’re off…

So, we took load one to the new house last night. I hurt. Pacha had fun. I am still overwhelmed. I wish I had the $$ to pay some movers to get our crap and just take it there. This is gonna kill me.shocked Oh, don’t get me wrong, it will be cool when it’s done, but in the meantime… Ack! It’d one of those FEW times that I actually WOULD like to have a credit card, instead of not having the cc debt. Trade-off I guess… most people I know my age have like $50K in credit card debt idiot2 I will say that, I don’t. have that weight around my neck…

Wee was in her element last night. She has been agitated about the move… she always is, but once we get down to it, she is the glue that holds it all together. AND she has a great eye for how stuff should be in any house–she’d make a good decorator. This new place is awesome; twice as big as what we’re in now… we’ll finally get our lives back out of all the boxes in the basement.

Thanksgiving
Well, today is Thanksgiving, not for myself and most Mail drivers, of course, the powers-that-be in the P.O. (Post Office fer you un-informed folk) don’t much worry about that kinda thing–we get the day AFTER off. What’s funny is that no work gets done on holidays, especially X-Mas Day and Superbowl Sunday (really). On Superbowl, they all are in break rooms or looking at mini-TV’s and watching the game. Nothing get’s done at all… they’re eating and drinking, etc. And really, that’s how it SHOULD be, but management doesn’t much approve as they turn a blind eye to it. I think that’s because the Execs give them the dumb orders. Really, on holidays like Thanksgiving, X-Mas, etc. they should just close the plants and have a skeleton crew… they won’t, of course, but hey, what do I know? I’m just a stupid dumb-ass truck driver. I’ve only been dealing w/ these people for almost 24 years… And no, I don’t hate the P.O., I don’t hate the people—I just hate the hypocrisy of it, the corporate greed that says “They WILL work that day!” and ignores the fact that people are people, not some Orwellian drones.

I’ll stop blathering now.
