Title: For those of you
Post by: birol on Feb 17, 2004, 07:43 AM
who think I live here, I don't. Currently I am filling up the trucking papers for those stuuupid additional gift thingies for the newspaper subscribers, so that I can drop the boxes to the carriers. There are a whooooping 5,000 of them to drop to 60 carriers. As I am updating my route maps (Which is a booring job) I checked in here.

Yup, I can always come up with excuses to be here :):):) now back to work for me ....

I have never thought you "lived" here, although I did have some thoughts.  I'm with you .... just check in periodically through out the day.  At least, I'm not on in the evenings or weekends... just during the day while I'm at work:W

Route map updated, calculations finished.  Off I go to load the windstar and distribute around 2,000 of them today, so much joy :( I can imagine carriers seeing the boxes when they come back home and go "C...., we gotta put the papers in these bags ????" It is a pain to put papers into those special bags which has the gifts. We gotta do 200 of them too, so much fun :)


Cya all laters .....

Birol, look on the bright side--when you need to take a break or when you are finished and are tired  and ticked off from the boringness of it all--you can come to the board and KNOW all of us are here waiting for your return.  Now where else can you find a group of such loyal friends?

I finished around  1,900 yesterday :) , Monday was only around 1,200 or so. Today's should be around 2,800, biggest for the last :) These things come in boxes of 60's, and are not very heavy, so it is just the number of times I have to walk toa  house which counts. Since I need to exercisize anyways, I don't mind at all doing this, and I get paid :)

BP is most of the times good, around 110-120 over 70-82, sometimes goes up to 130/89 though (usually just before I am due for the pill and if I am feeling upset and stuff). It is rare that it goes up, but still does, I don't know if that is to be acceptable. Will ask the Doctor when I see her again.

I think I am averaging 120/77 in long term, I need to keep track of it again and find out, she (The doctor) likes that.

Other than that, maing little bit more money with that Saturday morning trucking and some extra work now and then. It is still very tight, buy hey, when going gets tough, tough gets going eh :) so  :Oops:   hehehehe  I am pretty good at getting going  now :)
