I've been called in to help out today at.... (gulp) .... *work*.
A long-time customer is visiting and I have to provide some
sense of
corporate continuity.

Gotta get this over with so Sam and I can go back to the boat.

So how did it go?

Not bad. He awarded the company a $800+K contract for a new thin
film
system.

Wow! Hope you get a good chunk of that Went back to work myself
this week, gonna' work on a local farm for the winter to get loosened
up a little and trade off a little horsie time for my girls. Don't
think I will be making as much as you did though Of course our
work could be somewhat similar, I was off shoveling ****, how about
you?

Nah, I don't get any "chunk". I have a long term "consulting" deal
that
pays just about minimum wage, but keeps Mrs.E. and I eligible to
participate
in the company's health care program.

When I was a kid living outside of New Haven, CT., I had a summer job
mucking horse stalls for a guy that raised and trained thoughbred racing
horses. Not for me. In addition to the .... well .... you know, I was
also allergic to the hay dust. I swore I'd never do it again and I
haven't,
despite Mrs.E.'s three horses.

If you want to get bored to tears, here's what I ended up doing for a
living:
