I'd be cheaper to build a still and make some "pool cleaner"...
Had to clean a couple gutters I forgot about.

Made some breakfast for lunch... Wasn't bad.

Time to hide from the heat.

I went to another interview yesterday, not as close to home, but a position closer to my experience. A call back today, they what me to sit down with a couple of people higher in the food chain, scheduled for Friday. It turns out I have worked for a subsidiary of the main holding company in 2012, when they helped me liquidate my shop and move projects & people into their group.

I was just interested in a QC position, where I can teach machinists, and keep the company out of trouble. Looks like because of the rapid growth of the group, they have other options to talk about?
I don't know if I should be excited, or not, I've already climbed that ladder, and really don't miss the associated stress.
The people have been very receptive so far, and I feel a good vibe!
Wish me luck!
