Wow, that's really too bad he had to give up that career because he had to go to school for this and out and elevator mechanics make 50 dollars an hour with OT which is at double, not time and a half....son made 169 K last year........what career has your hubby's friend gone into?My husband has a friend who was also an elevator mechanic, but he also had narcolepsy. So he'd fall asleep while repairing them and that's just all bad. Lol. So he had to give up that career.
I'm not sure when I started disliking them. It may have started some 20 years ago when I worked downtown Minneapolis in a building that has 55 floors and I worked on the 53rd, and it got stuck part of the way up. I had visions of it plummeting to my death lol. We were stuck for about 2 hours. And then Final Destination came along. That did it for me for elevators.
That I don't know. I was kind of under the impression his narcolepsy was so bad he's not working at all. Can't blame him.Wow, that's really too bad he had to give up that career because he had to go to school for this and out and elevator mechanics make 50 dollars an hour with OT which is at double, not time and a half....son made 169 K last year........what career has your hubby's friend gone into?
I'm thinking about my senior cat, Bud this morning. I took the day off today; we need to go to the Vet as he has not been well. He's been isolating himself, losing weight and just not eating. We'll be putting him down. We'll miss him terribly, he's been such a special boy....and so very loved.

I been seeing people doing yard work and bending over from their back and not their knees . I think DR. should post pictures for their patients showing the right way to bend and pick things up. Or maybe Dr. rather made more $$I am glad you are feeling better. Back pain is not fun!

I feel your pain. That is never easy. They count on Mommy and Daddy to help them cross the bridge as painless as possible.I'm thinking about my senior cat, Bud this morning.

That this forum has totally gone downhill. We need our mod back to weed out the dumb threads and posts and posters.
I don't know if there's a need for a second mod given that this forum is so quiet these days. When Calvin comes back from his break I'm sure he will clean things up here.Or hire a second one.
Wonder why the other mods are so scarce these days. Or maybe I don't have to after seeing how many threads over the years have gone...
I saw the news about that. My town is planning to tax sodas and they said they are expecting lawsuits from soda companies.That taxes are being put on just about everything , I saw on the news tonight a city in Pa. voted to put taxes on sodas and juices . That going to hurt some families that have kids that drink a lot of juice .
I drink calorie free Polar seltzer and I hope my state , Ma. is not next. Next there will taxes on all candies and junk food . I don't eat this but a lot of people do.I saw the news about that. My town is planning to tax sodas and they said they are expecting lawsuits from soda companies.
