Title: Three day weekends for me!
Post by: Bill L2 on Mon 02/25/13 09:35 AM
Just received my furlough letter from work. Looks like I will only be working a four day work week until the budget mess is fixed! Finacially I will be fine though. But my wife will put a freeze on buying any new kits :(

On the bright side I can work on reducing my growing stash on kits:)

Turn lemons into lemonade, Bill. Do some modeling and get some stuff done. Or pick up drinking...  :-)

I hope it all gets worked out, but I don't have a whole of confidence in Washington at the moment.

Cheers,

Lee G.

:-( Sorry to hear this - we in the State are holding our breath.  (My Federal friends at Ft Bragg/Pope Field are being put on 4 day weeks) Looks like a good opportunity for "creativity"!
