Corvette therapy
Been having a really crappy and stressful time at work lately and it will likely continue for a while due to a co worker leaving and i'm stuck with the full workload for 2.
But after Supper went out to the garage and put in my # 4 body mounts, riveted in my Shoulder belt brackets and sprayed my undercarrage with black rockguard . Now I feel totally refreshed and ready to start tomorrow with new resolve
DAMM I LOVE MY VETTE!!, its great to work on after a rough day at the office!

The only thing better is getting behind the wheel...
I assume you have a heated garage...

Don't do too good at both jobs....or you'll keep them both. That's the way things are done now. Just keep cutting heads and piling up work until it can't quite get done....and use that "method" to find out what headcount you need. There are no ethics in business anymore.

I have been through 4 layoffs in my IT career. In one shop our network group went from 14 to 2, glad I wasn't left behind there!

That's why i felt my driving licence suspension like a chinese torture, because i couldn't take my vette distressing cruise for a month

I have only put 4 miles on this car since I bought it 2 years ago, I'm really looking forward to some top off cruises this summer
Give them the option to hire someone else, or pay you two salaries

I'm an air traffic controller/instructor, so I know all about crappy and stressful. 
Corvettes definitely give me a needed attitude adjustment whenever I need one.
