Seriously.....im ok if i never go to that again. its just so fucking crowded.

im not sure who is ruining what here. Who knows what the truth is, but i have read just about enough stories on who to blame here, i think the next one will have zombies, or aliens in it. Basically the guy running the tourist train says he "does it for basically no money, and just a way to thank the town". Thank the town? thats what flowers are for. My money is on this - the guy makes plenty of money with the tourist train, but in the past the town has waived the tax. Now he cant afford to put 20's and the alligator skin leather seats in his porsche.

I think $250 is high as well, but if you get it,......party! i surely would not pay $250 for skis that have repeatedly sprayed shit in my face. They might be fun to run over though, so lets see if they sell. You got your money out of those skis for sure.

Careful, you are going to overwhelm Toast with those lines in the grass.

Facebook is my go to source for all my news. I find its the best way to get the most accurate news ahead of everybody else.

I just saw on FB a model showing snow 12 days out. Will it happen? Probably not, but at least it shows there might be some cold air starting to come around.

Is it still actually growing, or is it whatever disorder you have that makes you do this? My grass quit growing weeks ago.

Its my guess, but you bought a pass at Blue based on the price, correct? It seems like you would rather ski at Camelback.

"coming soon". I mean, c'mon, what else do you want? I feel like they dont have to make improvements. People just continue to give them money without them having to do much. I mean, look, they got Salty to buy a pass there. And 2 years in a row, no less.

i was definitely better at drinking a few years ago vs. now. the headache thing started within the past few years. maybe 195 lb me absorbed alcohol better than i do now, dunno.

Somewhere after one nice beer and i will almost certainly get a really bad headache shortly after. Not sure about the alcohol as i would rather not go down that road.

Better late than never i suppose.

morgue-like.

I set my heat where i feel comfortable, which to most people is cold. My last house i kept at 66 in the winter with basically the heat turned off to my bedroom. The house in the poconos i usually have set at 70 to feel comfortable. Weird.

A/C is off. So now the question is, who can hold off the longest before turning on the heat. Supposed to get pretty chilly tonight.

Old y but a goody....

Fall is finally here.

Employees here are treated really well. paid vacations, health benefits, uniforms, tshirts, jackets, breakfast at our shop occasionally, lunch occasionally, really good Christmas bonus, and we hand out tampoons on a regular basis. Unfortunately, it seems the company makes the extra effort to make for "good moral and a happy employee is a good employee", but it doesnt always go the other way. Me personally, i would have the tractor delivered on a Saturday, so it wouldnt impact daily operations. Thats just me though. And since most are hourly employees, taking that day off impacts their paycheck, and trust me, most people i work with live week to week. We work in two different sectors. It might not be a big deal for you to take off and go ride your scooter, and you could probably even handle some work away from the office. it simply doesnt work that way in other fields. I'm sort of out of the daily operations position i was in, so i dont really have to deal with much of the personnel issues, but "rethinking staff levels" is kind of a funny term when we just simply cant hire enough people. If you happen to know anybody that has a Class A license, an operator, or just really a decent laborer with a clean driving record, let me know. Being seasonal, i can take off to go play in the snow randomly in the winter. Theres just not that much going on then, but i would never be able to (or feel good about doing it) pull that off during the season. Isnt it about time to put that fucking thing away? This is correct. We can deal with it with enough notice. Vacation time isnt a problem. The random day off with minimal notice is the issue. This.

This weather sucks. Pretty sure i can turn off the ac for good tomorrow.

Dogs are awesome!

God dammit......i thought there was going to be something worthwhile in this thread.

"coming soon" will be open before Xanadu

This would be tops for me as well, and probably Shadows would agree. I am amazed at how many people feel that work, especially for seasonal work, isnt their biggest priority. Like, bringing home a regular paycheck and paying bills isnt high on their list of things to do.

Was he the false advertising guy, or the its 40 degrees and Blue isnt making snow guy? You can see what an impression he has left on me.

God dammit.....i thought there would be something worthwhile posted here.
