Took the advice he gave me every time I’d ask for a raise, found another job
Which I start today, but unfortunately Texas winter is a roller coaster, 70s and 80s all last week, 30s and 40s and rain until Friday, so I won’t be able to take it to work until the end of the week

When we lived in Canada, just off the boat, my father was given a nickel an hour raise. He also overheard the boss say, what the hell, give the poor a**hole a nickel. My father never forgot it and neither did I. Him telling me that and the look in his eyes, changed me as an adult. I've carried the tired and stomped a mudhole up the a** of the bad guys my entire life. I'm proud of that and I know you'll remember it whether you want to or not, it's a moment that pushes us forward. I'm thinking about you!!!Took the advice he gave me every time I’d ask for a raise, found another job

I always told my son to work hard and be proud of the job you do no matter what. Also look for something better if you're not happy. We spend too much time at work (whether for someone else or yourself) to be unhappy there.
At the end of my working career (past 50) I was lucky enough to find good bosses, however if they hadn't treated me well I just would have bought my own business and did things my way. The end bosses let me run everything my way so I suppose it all ended the same.

Little Anthony's is a 1950s diner in Tucson that regularly has car show twice per month. Last Saturday the turn out was over 100 cars. I like the In N Out cup antenna toy.
I remember working with people who thought, if they couldn't make their candle burn brighter, they'd just blow yours out. They needed an adjustment, and got one..
Love the cup and the color of your car, outstanding. Thanks for sharing!!

Well I’m big on an epic road trip, just an ice cream, or just round the block, just get it out whenever possible. Well weather sucked last week, and it’s going to suck next week, but today was just good enough for a trip around the block and a burnout (or two)
You do what you can, when you can!! As always, nice view!!
Do you get the toy with a meal?

I could drive it when it’s 20 degrees, but I don’t have to, so why
. If it had heat I’d definitely have it out more!
I believe that In N Out cup toy is over 20 years old.....the guy who had it on his 65 Barracuda said it was really old.
