It’s Monday, better off going in and talking personally to your foreman, little more professional and could be a deciding factor. GL. ---

layoffs suck, good luck guys. I worked there years ago, was involved in a layoff so i know the feeling. That company is VERY up and down, i was just talking to one of the foreman twards the end summer and he was telling me how much work they had and how they cannot keep up, i thought wow thats great! a few months later here they are again, laying off. I know i got called back pretty quick after i was layed off but i rejected their offer to return because i thought the place sucked to work for and had much better opportunities. Moog \> \* bobbyg, you mean his Porsches? haha two porsche GT2’s in his garage, unless he sold one idk. I had the secret Derrick garage tour. He does have nice cars/boats ---

Obama did say he would bankrupt companies that try to use coal for power, that can’t be good for Derrick if they have anything to do with coal mining. “Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.” “So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can. It’s just that it will bankrupt them.” Yay Obama! ---
