Morning gents....

My hands are still tingling from running that angle grinder all day yesterday. Pretty happy with how it's looking.

Had the rain down here as well Scott. 63 now... supposed to be in the 50s tomorrow night. I should get the fire pit going after seeing Eric's.

I suppose it would be asking a lot to hope that the humidity not return

August is coming

Cost of living increase should be a good one this year??

 

[dartnabout]

Contemplating...

The smart thing to do is pull it..... so I probably will. It's all new so should be easy...and I'll have a chance to rework a couple of the lines off of the distribution block. Not super happy with the routing.

Heard rumblings that it would be something like 2.7%?

 

[dartnabout]

5% retro active from July 1. Another in October and a step raise in January. All together in the next 3 years a total of 22% and 2 step raises

 

[dartnabout]

Each step is about $200 after.taxes

I just read that it had bumped to 3%. We won't really know until the ink dries.
I feel fortunate my military, SS, and VA retirements get a yearly COLA increase unlike my state retirement which has never paid a COLA.

I feel like the Kritters are looking to offset any raises with a benefits reduction.... Seems to be the trend

 

[dartnabout]

I may extend it another year....maybe not.

 

[dartnabout]

Oh and they are planning on paying more into our healthcare.. Just crazy

 

[dartnabout]

I may stay until my lady friend retires (1year) then we will hit the road.

I wouldn't think any reductions or even talk going into the election cycle. We've all heard the rumblings before, but nothing has ever come of it.

Dept of Corrections i.cannot find good people so they are working to keep those they have
