Boring times so maybe a highlight or 2. Usual hour workout at 9 am. Went out and swing the Superspeed clubs and my driver .

I take it that most of your 'clients' are gov. employees ??

ALL of them, yes. Sometimes uniformed active duty officers are involved. I've worked with General/Flag officers (O7), GS15 civilians all the way down to wage grade civilians. Human disputes know no rank.

fatshot Are you dealing with lawyers, or just the parties to the dispute....? I would think the
lawyers would take a lot of the "enjoyment" out of it.

In formal EEO complaints, the attorneys are present. I have to be a real referee in some of those. Informal workplace disputes usually do not have the attorneys. That’s where I get to play marriage counselor. 😉

😳 Yes sir, yes sir.

Sounds like you need some real "people skills" in dealing with interpersonal relationships. Don't know if
I could handle that or not...!!! Do you ever wear a striped referee's shirt and whistle??

Spent most of my worklife teaching, coaching, leading, supervising, tolerating, influencing, people. The Navy has a pretty extensive mediator training program to learn the process, but it takes the people skills to be effective. I don’t wear the zebra stripes but I am a referee of a sort.

Walterjn that is so freaking awesome!!!

Couple pics for you Walter… got some of these the other day. He just got another 36 that he hasn’t gone through yet. It’s the hair.

sdandrea1 Nick and my wife covered the pick guard in snakeskin tollex. He wired it etc… his custom shop FUTone did the rest including distressing the body.

If you look at the top picture, the guy in the background that is sort of behind Dee and at the end of the neck on Nicks guitar can be seen taking video on his cell phone. That guy is Eddie Trunk.

Typhoon Eddie Trunk.

Music historian, talk show host. Cool!

Heading over to work in a few to get some paperwork done. Released to go back to work on Monday, "light duty", for 6 weeks. Whatever that is.
My anxiety level is sky high, serious case of nerves.

Typhoon

LBlack14 When I worked a Pepsi, they wouldn’t allow light duty anymore. They made you stay out until you were 100%. Too many “grey areas” on what is light duty… and if your gonna stand around and do nothing, the company didn’t want you on “their payroll.”

Typhoon I had to have the release submitted twice, the 2nd time with more specifics. It's common sense stuff, no ladders, crawling on hands and knees, no climbing, observe precautions, etc. They were good with the 2nd one so back I go.

Good luck. Didn't you get into a legal pissing contest with your employer? If so I hope your boss doesn't hold a grudge. That could make for a long day. Be careful. Being on light duty it is easy to forget what you are not supposed to do when a task presents itself. Best of luck and I hope things go well. Your wife is also probably glad to get your ass out of the house some. 😜

Yeah, best of luck but I don’t see anything good coming from this. Boss will want you to do something. You’ll say you can’t because of light duty…. But again, good luck. Just being Devils advocate because of the prick employer

Not really, they're (PGA) out of it now, so I'm told. It's actually with Workers Comp.

My boss, the GM and myself are on great terms. They both know and understand what I've been through the past 3 years.

Par4QC

Typhoon You’ll say you can’t because of light duty….

I don't think LB is going to say that. Hell, he's going to be doing things he's not supposed to do anyway. Doubt, that I'll be far off the mark, with that statement.😉

CallMeAl

With the Mrs as she is having a couple procedures.

You know me well. While I was there, they pulled up with a pickup load of floor paint for our shop/bays. I start grabbing boxes and unloading. I go and set a box down and my boss, "HEY! You're not supposed to be bending or stooping!", with a big, shit eatin' grin on his face. Guess who's painting shop floors next week.😁🙄

I'll take it. Indoors, warm and dry.

Therapy/worked out, worked on some cool upcoming LogicalOne stuff and then this afternoon I’m heading over to the tattoo shop to get my next piece of art (first golf related piece). 👍🙂
