Had some minor drama at the ranch the other night too, Rose. I was hurting a bit, so I got really stoned and fell asleep around four in the morning. Between four and six, some low life moron decided that the dead end road I live on would be a perfect place to dump the trash from his bathroom remodel. A one person hot tub, cement board, busted up tile, and wood scraps greeted me from thirty feet across from my driveway.

Our elected officials at the Township said it was a county road commission problem. The county road commission said it was their problem IF it was in the road. We called the cops. Cops show up and said it's the township's problem. Went down to the township and they said they'd contact the road commission.

Long story short, a mid-thirties young man from the county came out, sifted through the trash, found some clues to who did the deed, came back with a truck this morning, and picked up the mess! Saved me the trouble of loading the whole thing up and dumping it in front of the township hall.

People can slam union workers all they want, but these county employees do their jobs with great diligence. Hats off to the Genesee County Road Commission!


Wow hippie that reminds me of Alice's Restaurant.

Haven't heard that one in a long time ....:laugh:
Beautiful PS Welcome :48:
 
Weird, when I first signed up for the site I used the name Delahaze and I never posted anything, I just lurked till I actually got comfortable enough to use Kraven.... so Rose if you want to delete Delahaze you can, you can see I just logged onto that account and then back out today. Thanks.
 
Thanks DD, when it got to be too much, I would finish my shift and say that was the last one, good - bye and thank you.....then hide at home for a few weeks till I got over whatever got me stirred up and then rinse and repeat....I love being a nurse, it's my way of giving back what i took from a great many people.....but I'm to the point I'm second guessing my assessments and getting more panicked at simple things like codes. I need to walk away and get a low stress, happy, part time job, and uncle sam is gonna make that possible in the end, till then I march on....I don't feel ashamed anymore, the reason it's there is we do and see more things than civilians, and sometimes that has lasting effects that limit our future options. I am lucky I got to nurse for 15 years, now it's time to take care of me for once.

I agree! I've been a nurse for 25 years & have taken care of 22 week pre-term babies all the to geriatriacs. I have given much & it has taken a lot. So often those who are hurt & need care end up in a profession such as ours. Like you said, it's time for you to receive the compassion & care.
 
You guys remember me telling you I got a job, right? Well, had to go do the pre employment health screen at noon today. No problem, I got all my credentials, immunizations, clean urine discreetly placed-- ready! Told Mr. D.D. I'd probably be done in about 30 minutes, home within an hour easy. Walked in & was placed in one of those chairs for drawing lab. My heart raced a bit, but not too worried as it is most difficult to get book from me & almost impossible to get an adequate sample. I am a vampire. Anyways, first thing the nurse says, as she show's me this stick thingy, first we'll get a saliva drug screen.....everything after that just didn't matter suddenly.
 
Kraven, i listened to the whole thing!!! it has been a while. Howard my poodle and i danced.
 
O.M.G.!--D.D.!-- I'm done with drug screens !--I can't beat a drug screen like that !--What happened ?
 
Ok, the rest of the story. TB test, Flu shot-- barely noticed. All I could think was, I can't pass this drug screen. How do I get out of this one. She opened the package & told me to stick it in my mouth & coat the little sponge with saliva. Next thing I knew it was in my mouth, my excessively DRY mouth. Long story short, she tried 3 times to get an adequate sample. I even told her I would give urine, but she said that was such a big hassel & the saliva test was so easy. A break, photo ID taken, a bottle of water & the final attempt. Of course, it was unsuccessful. My mouth was really dry, really. The anxiety had taken every drop of moisture & turned my mouth into a desert. I couldn't have given a sample if I wanted to. I figured, ok now I get to pee. But, to my surprise, the nurse said, "I'm just gonna call it, you're good." SHOCK & AWE! Yes, there is a Santa Claus!
 
Yea DD thats the new wrinkle, but it's only good unless u smoked less than 6 hours before it is given, and then to defeat it brush your teeth good with toothpaste and find the old gold Listerine and us a dab on your toothbrush to gently brush inside your cheeks where they are gonna swab.....they are getting better though DD, there are some that can detect it for 24 hours now or a lil more...the urine test is on the way out as a test method since this is quicker, more accurate and less likely to be defeated...and here's the kicker, its cheaper to use the swabs now than even the kits used for UA's.

Rose, its an old thanksgiving tradition started my my now deceased mother, this will be the first year I wont hear it at thanksgiving. It OK, we all have fond memories and this year we will create more, just gonna miss mom that's all.
 
Phewy, awesome story, good karma there dd. So relieved for you!

Of course your going to miss your mom. The holidays are hard especially the first few years. That is normal, i know your not going for normal, ha, but that is. Hugs from your emom.
 
I guess I'm Outlaw all the way !--Anything that requires a drug screen is beyond my reach so any pretense of being a legal productive member of society !--I guess my only option is to grow weed !--Namaste ?-- My a$$!--
 
Hey I'm so high I had to turn down the T.V. cause I couldn't taste my grilled cheese!
 
whew DD, much karma came your way, gratz for you. Wife has big interview Tuesday for a job exactly like her last job, only much closer to home and for 5k more a year than she was making, if she get this I'm not that rushed to find a lil something while working on the VA stuff.....so say a little prayer for her, we are really hoping this will be the silver lining in an otherwise dark cloud of a year. I'm really happy for you DD
