Stop in for a cup of coffee

I smell deep bullshit at work.

The CEO appears to have become enamoured with my abilities and today cut the responsibilities of the Chief Operating Officer to nearly zero. Then he dropped tidbits to the rest of the team that he had done so, and was looking for someone new to lead the Operations of the Company...but never said a word to me.

Tonight I am being inundated with emails from the US And Australia asking me for guidance and direction in areas that are not within my responsibility.

If this dumbass CEO thinks I am just going to take on this responsibility without a substantial change in title and pay...he is sadly mistaken.

I will let him merrily make his checkerboard assumptions until he fully commits past the point of no return...and then drop the hammer on him.

You want me in this role? The price is 30% more than I make now and an agreement that you don’t get in my way. All of which will be backed by a 2 year contract that says I get paid for the full 2 years regardless of what happens...and if you breach the terms, I am released and you still pay.

He is playing checkers happily convinced he is a genius...I am playing chess and will destroy him at least 8 moves ahead of his next move. He has no idea that I am fully prepared to resign on a moments notice and won’t hesitate to do so.

The trick to hunting squirrels is to never let them know they are being hunted.
Why am I not surprised. People typically dont change their ways.
 
Good morning everyone. I appear to be 2nd yet again today. I hope all is well

Well, we have traction issues this morning. Ice on satellite dish for sure.
Good thing the roofers started on moms house yesterday. Today wont be an easy day for them.
 
Yikes! Does not sound remotely fun or safe to me!
My get er done take on this problem,would be a tiger torch and leaf blower. Melt snow, blow water off.
Or wait until tomorrow.
Glad its not me doing the job.
 
Oh,good morning to you all.
Today i wrap up cab corners and rocker panels.
Then kick truck out until new door shells show up. I can work on 3rd door without truck in shop.
 
I remember seeing your post of you putting up the siding on your building. That giant *** ladder! My thoughts on that are the same in this instance....
NO WAY IN HELL! :lol:
 
Morning Mark..
Yep agree with Hoppy, no roofs.
Friend a few years ago, just retired on the roof, slipped broke his neck.

That's right ESPECIALLY TJ'S ROOF!!!!!!!
 
About 7 years ago,we did 5 roofs.
It was a tough year. First one, buddy’s brother in law walked off the roof and smashed both heels.
So he was out, we had to finish it.
That one needed new sheeting as well,it was a challenge to get it done in 3 days.
He’s not allowed up a ladder now. His wife flips out. I dont blame her. She saw him fall.
