Joining The Ranks Of The Carpet Walkers

[slonezp]

Sorry Raider

 

Start my new job on Monday. New title is HVAC/R Trade Specialist. In layman's terms I'll be a consultant. Going to be quite a change, but I'm looking forward to it. I can finally give my crippled body a rest.

Do you think there's a reason why they call those really comfortable shoes that back office types can wear - Loafers? 

 

IBR - In Before Raider!

[BassnChris]

Welcome.

It will be a mixed blessing.

But beware........for everyday you spend with the carpet walkers.......the closer you will come to assimilation.....until the day comes that you will not be able to return.

But I welcome you just the same. Boo ha ha ha ha.

Watch out!  Paper cuts are an occupational hazard.

[quanjig]

Well look at you getting all rightious and such ....lol!!!

[F14A-B]

Ba humbug ! Seriously , glad it worked out..

[Raider Nation Fisher]

Traitor!!! Well, hold on a second. Do you still get to keep your yellow ticket as a carpet walker? Or is that over and done with?

Walk that carpet boy! Push them papers! LMFAO!

While you shuffle about in a tie and loafers. I will be working another power house outage until spring. At which time I believe I will be coming to Chicago to work in your lovely state of Illinois. Was going to come up there for an outage last week. Decided it would be a bit cold for me with all that wind and snow.

Congratulations!

What happend to becoming a engineer?

 

Now I am not sure if we can fish together next summer.  Bad enough you are a from the land I hate. Then throw in you are a bears fan, and the new job. We would have nothing in common. I am dispointed in you man. Just for that. The cubs will not win a world series intill you die.

. The cubs will not win a world series intill you die.

That's more of a statement of fact than a threat.

When you roll up on your hog,  I'll be waiting for you on the 29th floor of that tall building in the middle

 

If by yellow ticket, you mean journeymans card, I will continue to pay my dues for now. Never know when that card will come in handy. I was already offered a job at the Chrysler plant in Belvidere IL.

 

Can't tie a tie and don't own a suit. Jeans and nice shirts are the dress code. I can handle that.

It's Wiscy for "when"

Congratulations Slone. A smart man who has paid his dues in a position to make a difference is a very good thing. Good luck.

[retiredbosn]

Man are u in for a surprise, cerebral work is exhausting. U get physically tired and sleep comes easily, mentally tired well not so much.

[flyfisher]

Good luck in your new job.  Just remember where you started and keep that in mind as you work as a consultant.  When i worked at a large bank it definitely came in handy that i started as a call center rep, then moved on to QA and then as a process engineer.  Having that experience provided a perspective that was welcome in many situations.

Congrats man. Bigbill is correct. Be prepared for a different type of tired. I've been a consultant for over 15 years, and I can tell you, it takes a while to learn to turn it off when you go home.

[Raider Nation Fisher]

Just remember where you came from. And don't forget the brothers.
