MichaelCopeland Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Thank You Lord the wait is over! I've been waiting a long time for this and finally I start my new job at Academy Sports as an Outdoor Specialist. My first day is tomorrow at 9am to get all my new hire paperwork done and whatever else they need me to do. I'm so happy. Thank you to all that believed in me and kept me in their prayers for this job. It has paid off. God Bless you all! ? 19 Quote

MichaelCopeland Posted February 2, 2018 Author Posted February 2, 2018 I'm really excited to be in a position to not only learn some new things but also to pass on some things I have learned. I give all thanks to God for leading me to this forum, the ability to retain the knowledge gained from all of you, the ability to pass on that knowledge, the job I start in the morning, all the kind words from all of you and just everything He has done and will do for me. @Mike L if that's what God wants me to do, I'll be running the joint sooner than 5 years...lol. Determination is one of my best God given abilities. Thanks again everyone, y'all are Awesome! ? 2 1 Quote

Today was all computer training stuff mainly for firearm safety certification. Still have some more of that to do. I did browse the fishing section while on break though. Found my next baitcaster combo I'm gonna get as soon as I can afford it in a few weeks. It's a Lew's 6'6" MHF Speed Stick with a 7.1:1 Speed Spool. Just the size I've been wanting. 1 Quote
