Unlimited overtime for the next 2 months or stay at 40hrs/wk and compete with 09 birds for the FF. Already been at it for 6 wks and feel that my birds are way behind where they should be. Dark when I go to work and near dark when I get home, 6 days/wk.
Man this is killing me to let probably my best breeding year go to poop, but my family and financial situation has to come first.
Sure was looking forwards to kicking Sal's arse this year, but its not looking good! LOL ----------
Sure hope I can get my birds back on track when this is over. Reckin its still possible? We still have the state fly in Dec. and they will be my WC birds to fly next spring.

Val, You, only fool yourself. Everyone else knows what you wii do! :) Don't work so hard you get sick though. Your family needs you, as well as the money.

Take all the over time you can get you never know when the bottom will fall out.
If a company has a big contract they make more when they finish ahead of schedule.
I was working 16 hours a day for years & making a killing.
6 months ago I was laid off after 20 years.
I saved all the overtime money and now have a little spare change, and time to spend on the birds & my family.

Now that has to be a sight to see. Scott in his SpongeBob boxers sitting on the patio sipping some coffee! Scott have Tammy take a picture of that and post it here!! Scott, I like you was fortunate enough to be able to stash for the lean times. Allowed me to retire or semi-retire before I was 60. Now my life revolves around family, golf, fishing, hunting, pigeons and my faith. ---------- Keep em Spinning Joe
