Bad news..possibly good news

well, i got canned today gang. seems they don't want to take the time to TRAIN a newcomer as much as they thought. so i am as of now, unemployed.

BUT, i may have a job as of tonight. i called the city where i USED to work, new managment in place there now. and the new boss said he was going to hire 3 new people. and i would most likely be one of them. i'll find out either tonight or tomorrow. and i would POSSIBLY go in at the rate of pay as when i left. which would be great, lol.

at progress rail, there have been some accidents. BAD ones. and since i ONLY have a class B cdl. and the new trucks they have have the new stick shift transmission that i have NEVER used before. they gave me only 1 1/2 days to learn it. couldn't do it gang. i have never had such a hard time learning to drive a truck as i have with that one. i am not mad, jsut dissappointed in myself and them really. the trainer was cool, he wanted me to have the rest of the week to learn it. but the higher ups didn't see it that way. but i guess it's all ok and GOD is guiding me in the right direction...back to the city,lol. if i get hired back on there, i'll not leave again till i reitre. which will be about 15 yrs. that will give me 30 years in the RSA. which is good retirement.

so pray i get to go back please. thanks gang. i was looking FORWARD to the traveling ont he progress rail job and having a chance to visit some of oyu. guess i'll have to do it the old fashioned way, lol. show up at midnight and bang on your door, hahaha!

thanks agian gang.
