    That's what road trips are for!

    I might even try to make it to one of the Tundras to Sedona things. Not sure my Tundra is super trail worthy, but just to meet people and hang out it could be fun. Definitely outside my antisocial comfort zone.

    I do like me a road trip but boy do I relate to the whole antisocial thing. I've been invited to quite a few Tacomaworld Wisconsin get togethers though so I'm going to have to say yes pretty soon

    Tell you what, I've been pushing outside my comfort zone and engaging with friends more and there's not really a downside. Sure, I'm drained and tired after a day of interaction, but it's still a positive experience.

    I've been told there's a new guy that is currently being trained to do the job that I do and they say he wants to stay on nights. I would love to be able to trade with him and stay on days like I used to but I don't have very high hopes cuz the vast majority of people who trained for my job end up quitting or bidding on a different position

    Have you thought about going for a different position?

    that would make it hard to move. I find myself in a similar position. There are a couple other spots I could move into, and some pay bumps, but I'd lose my schedule. I don't want to go back to a 4 or 5 day work week and short weekends. It's worth more than the pay increase to me.

    Same reason I'm still on my shift, I would actually take a small pay hit if I went to days. The time off and pay differential makes the few nights I work, worth it.

    Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't complain if I went to straight days on my current schedule and had a decent/reliable person opposite me on nights, but the jobs that don't do nights are either 5/8s or 4/10s. To get me back to that kind of schedule I'd need something like a 50-60% pay increase to feel it was worthwhile.

    Yeah, I get that.

    Besides not being around management/supervisors every day, another perk of my rotating shift is I only need 32 hours of leave to get 14 days off.
    :yes:

    My little bunker is kinda off site, so the only Supes are my direct ones, and they are good. You're vacation sounds solid though. I have to burn 80 hours at a stretch, but I do get 3 weeks off for that.

    Would have felt guilty sitting inside all day so I went for a quick windy and drizzly outing. Actually enjoyed it as I caught a smallmouth that wasn't all that huge but he fought spectacular, especially in a kayak. Also saw four water pitbulls hanging out together and they were grunting and sniffing at me.

    Yea, it was pretty cool. They are interesting animals and if you ever get a chance to sit and watch them when they don't know you're there it's a fun time.

    It's a water weasel. Lanky, goofy, and adorable. Would not want one mad at me though.

    Is that what they are called by you? Over here we call them otters. Only reason I called them water pitbulls is cuz they remind me of my dog when she is in the water lol

    They are related to weasels, ferrets, etc. so I call them that, but yeah they are Otters.

    Ah okay. I just know there's lots of names for the same animals and fish (like how where I'm at some people call the same fish either by the name northern pike, usually shortened to Northern, or some people call it a pickerel)

    Ahh, I see. They are definitely Otters. Water Weasel is in the same level of naming as Water Pitbull from you. Purely for the fun of it.

    My dog seriously is just like them in the water, they look so similar especially the tail and fur. Plus she's as fiesty as one too lol. Tries to heard everyone together if we swim too far apart and if you go underwater she decides that your back is in desperate need of severe scratches :bananadead:
