Mornin' dudes... (my morning). Left work at 2am cuz I was tired. HA!

Congrats on FT retirement Conan. I'm almost there.

Newsom extended CA lockdown until June 19. The people are already revolting. It's gonna get really, really ugly.

Thanks guys!

Bit of a forced retirement but given the situation, glad to be riding off. I talked to the new guy yesterday and found out that all the sales reps are required to make 40 phone calls and send 40 emails a day. So 400 contact attempts a week. Super glad I wasn’t considered an employee and forced to even do 20 and 20.

I asked for and received the approval from the COO to keep my old cell number and in lieu of a gold watch, even the cell phone. Of course I’m gonna have to transfer everything over and pay for the service but at least don’t have to buy a phone and let everyone know of my new number.

A few return emails and then after dinner, a Padron and a nice pour from a to-be-opened bottle of Blanton’s Straight From The Barrel. This one is the last of the two I purchased during our Japan trip in ‘17.

They did the same here, same reaction. I tooled up all the vehicles last week. Our facility is in an area that was sketchy and struggling "before" this crap started. Mostly all service industry folks. Now they're seriously hurting. Given the hours that we come and go in, I'm not one to play the odds. 🤔

I asked the grandson how he would feel about being the trunk monkey. Got a thumbs up. 👍

Mom and Grandma were scowling, no sense of adventure there eh wot? 😂

Mahalo Delta, Ram, Danm, 8 and Frankie!

Got a 2nd wave of goodbye / congratulatory messages so spent the afternoon replying to all of them. Dinner soon and then out in the garage with a really nice Padron and the Blanton's. Got baby and dog sitting duties tomorrow so can't go overboard. :-"
