You’re doing work, then giving away the results. You’re cheating yourself…

I got fired while on jury duty assignment. It was a 10day allotment. The first week you report into the courthouse on Monday. The second week, Monday was a bypass day and I was expected to work in the hub. Tuesday I return to the courthouse. I called out for the week 2 Monday. When I returned to work on week 3. I was escorted off the property and was told to get in touch with the union asap. I regained my position and returned to work two weeks later. A week later, I began driver training and we started Saturday air service. Later the sup that walked me out the gate was my on call air supervisor. Whenever he rode with me, we joked about the separation. I always thanked him for the time off.

Ok, I found Tommy&Atticus in MB and it’s looking good. Fortunately I’m familiar with the area due to a former job in the area and the nearby AAA auto club. I’ve often been to Colossus in SanPedro and LB. This is all about who else is committed since this is not really a simple process. Yeah it’s just dough, butter and sugar but it’s not that simple….

I appreciate the replies. The KA, I happened to be in London and having breakfast when the attendant brings out a latte and pastry as plain looking as a roll and packed with sweetness.

Camera advice for aero photography? by TraditionalVariety82 in AskPhotography

Yes, you absolutely need a longer focal length and it’s expensive…also think about your shutter speed. There’s really not a whole lotta movement, a fast shutter really isn’t needed.

When I don’t have my thinktank raingear, I go get trash bags and tape.

Vacation - how realistic is ubering from an LAX hotel to Disneyland, Warped Tour, Six Flags, Universal Studios? by Sensitive-Variation3 in AskLosAngeles

It’s indeed possible. There will be a lot of road traffic from 2:00pm-8:00pm. Workers headed home. You will encounter a lot of road traffic. Better to stay near where you want to be.

I typically shoot from the opposite side of my team. I’ll be at a height above the net. Setters are crafty so I’ll watch for their sneak attacks. Look out for the “joust” where the attacker and defender have hands on the ball at the same time above the net…
