    There is a whole lot of good ones out there too!


    I don’t either, and I’m guilty of making generalizing statements as well. Can we have a beer now?

    First I dont wear under for that very reason

    second I thought this site was supposed to be political free? We all have our opinions and we can share them at the polling booth. Im not so sure we are whiners as we are very spoiled. I for myself am not a proponent for spare the rod spoil the child. I dont know about some of you, but I dont worry about any young person taking my job. They have no work ehtic. They are raised on entitlements.

    Dont spread my wealth. spread my work ethic.


    My question for you is how young is young. And I would be carful what you wish for. There are plenty of people in all age ranges that will out work the next guy, and just as many that are willing to sit around and let others do the work. I’m just saying

    It’s friday is it beer time yet?

    WOW I wasnt trying to stir sucha debate. I have worked in the bldg trades for 22 years, and I have had the pleasure of working with many great young men and women. It was a pleasure to teach them my trade. But I sent alot of twentysomethings packing, for poor work ethics, and lack of pride in there work. I two have 3 wonderful boys who pull there weight, and I am very proud of them. I was very stern but never had to lay a hand on them. But also didnt go into Target and come out with something for them everytime either. I taught them their is consequences to their choices, I also taught them gratitude. I apoligize for the 1st statement, I used it to create a little levity in this post. The statement of spoilin is a generalization of the many not the few. And as for entitlements I will stick to my original statement, there are plenty who want, with out effort because they believe they are entitled to it.
    Sorry to create such a stir.

    I will still come and visit this site.
    not sure how much I will contribute, seems there is a bit of a clique here and if your not one of them, then you just dont fit in. Sponsors as always I will continue to support you, and by your goods and services.

    Also I should add, after the many years of hard work and some 5 knee surgerys I have a desk job now but still very much involved in the trades. Some people would say I have paid my dues. but I do get to visit this site, when Im not too busy. And yes some could out work me now. But that is like the old Joke lets run down there and *&^%$# one of them cows, and the old BULL says lets walk down and %$#%* them all.

    I dont drink. but have a good weekend boys
