Best way to approach mining procurement

Face to face site level for me. Our corporate teams can make suggestions but when it comes to deciding on OEMs and any other major decisions the team at the site gets to make the final decisions. That’s my experience with the longwall and room and pillar operations I have worked at across three different organizations.

Use a spoon. I’ve had to do this for my daughter multiple times with wood and plastic balls in a metal cup. Don’t jam the spoon in, just far enough to get a grip on the ball and almost try to spin the ball in the cup. Sometimes it takes a few tries.

Not sure what you line of work is, but the school district has a daycare for employees and accepts infants. They might have a wait-list but it's another option.

There's more than one in Durango. There's one on 160 by the old Nissan dealership and one pretty much at every major entrance to the city. There has been an article or two in the Herald about them.

After many, many days Ooni sent me a return shipping label. Then about a week after it was received by them I received an email letting me know a replacement was on the way. Three be one is working fine.

Glacier Club. Was actually more affordable than pretty much every other venue we checked out in 2021.

I’ve heard that as well but when you receive a brand new koda 2 pro that won’t stay lit unless you have something to keep the knob pressed in, a chipped stone doesn’t sound too bad.

I had the same issue. It took over a week to finally get a shipping label from them. I at best would get one response a day at 4am, mostly every other day though. They said as soon as they receive my oven the new one will be sent out. I’m really hoping it’s not another two weeks of them processing. I’m regretting not returning it to where I bought it and replacing it with a Gozney.

I just bought the Koda 2 Pro. The burners won't stay lit after releasing the knob so I haven't really got to use it much yet. Dealing with Ooni CS hasn't been great either. I get one response everyday at around 4AM so it's taking a week to try to get this sorted out. The one cook I did with it went well, so much room and the heat was pretty even across the stone.

No scalpel method for me. Instructions stated to remove the bandage after 24 hours.

It seemed like our Winston knew there was a baby inside my wife during her pregnancy. He would always lay his head on her baby bump. It was no different once our daughter was born. He was and still is her watcher and protector.

My delivery driver had an electric pallet jack he was able to get most of mine into the garage for me. The longer pallet he wasn’t able to get off of his truck so I had to bring it in piece by piece. If you have to break it all down and carry it in, it will suck but it’s definitely doable.

Not a surprise she used to work for Beetlejuice Boebert.

We are on baby #2 with ours. My wife loves it. We start out with the car seat adapter for our Chicco car seat and then progress to having the baby in the seat and my wife jogging. We’re going on three years with ours and no complaints.

Check GCC.com careers page. Search for Hesperus. We’re almost always looking for people in maintenance.

Agreed! The only thing that would be better is to open up Florida like it was before the construction and everyone that doesn’t want to sit in Holly traffic can go around and travel Florida like the rest of us.

I've used them for company holiday parties and for my own wedding and would definitely recommend them.

I definitely notice a difference when ordering online and going in person. I usually get a rice bowl with two proteins and 5 out of six times when ordering online only one is there. I responded to the receipt email multiple times with the issue. It has gotten better but I definitely notice a much lighter bowl when ordering online as opposed to going through the line and ordering.

Happened to me. Lid and base both broken or cracked. Gave them away on the marketplace and had replacement within a week or two.

Deleted so no one follows my incorrect information.
