Really?
 
Just got great news. At my night job we hit a snag. There are 5 electricians that do 24/7 coverage.I work nights 12 hr's 3/4 days.

So there was some big changes end of last week. 1 Electrician took a management job, 1 electrician is out with a shattered hand and 2 electricians are on vacation later this week.

Guess it leaves me to work a shit ton of hours. again. My record was 138hr's a few weeks ago. I'm going for 160 this time.



BTW- looks like Black Plague will be the boss at Slowhawk Performance for awhile.:shots:

Good luck lol i guess now is a bad time to ask when you are available for a retune. Lol

That pretty much sucks Don! Looks like you will be stocking up on 5 hour energy drinks! Think Sam can handle all the pressure? lol

Sam is good. He's the first person I've had here that I do not worry about leaving. Finally.

I'm hoping in the near future I will get Sam into tuning all the cars. He has alot of experience and a great base for tuning.

just don't play with the green wire and blue wire at the same time... makes the clock run slower.

Slowhawk 09-05-2011 05:52 PM

I'm a veteran here with 16 yrs. Got it scheduled to just 88 hrs this week. Gives me time to tune the 4-5 cars I have scheduled.

Props to you sir, theres no way I could work all those hours, I'D DIE!!!!!!!!:sFun_explosive:

Slowhawk 09-08-2011 12:58 PM

Ok,now it will be 92hr's this week. Atleast the rain slowed down my shop work in tuning.

I should invest in the company's that make Red bull and 5hr energy.

ls6monte 09-08-2011 04:30 PM

Haven't you been living off that stuff the last few years???????????? lol
