Laid off yet again. LOL!

Yep, I knew it was coming. Oh well, I have my heavy equipment operators school coming up. All classwork for November but come February we get to hop in the equipment and start tearing some shit up. The lady at the union hall wasn't very encouraging about me spending all this money on learning how to run the equipment but oh well. Once I get signed up, she has to send me out if it's my turn on the list. No one else would train me so I had to figure out how to get what I wanted on my own. I always find a way to get what I want. LOL!
If you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.

 I won't either, but as I understood it, finish bladework takes a ton of skill and practice, neither of which I can pick up in a 9 week course.
