A relative started a job just over a year ago with the State as an hourly employee. Recently was given a raise and was made salary and basically works five days and 40 hours. They said that in a few months they are going to increase production and everyone will have to work 7 days a week for six months so basically no time off and no mention of OT Pay so it works out to working for free two days a week. On top of that they had everyone sign a form that they created telling the employees that the place was shutting down for a week around Christmas and all the employees have to use their vacation time for that week. Thoughts?

No it's not unionized or this wouldn't be going on. They don't give them any HAZMAT training or do any safety toolbox meetings either. They do spray some chemicals and give them a full respirator/face shield to wear but never had the employees get tested to see if they were able to wear one without if affecting their breathing.

Raise.

Pics, we need PICS!. LOL Congrats to your son. That Adam guy is everywhere.

Rest of it is pretty pristine. Hole is easy to cosmetically repair. I glass bedded the same rifle for my brother-in-law years ago and the 788's have nine lugs and the fastest lock time ever in a production rifle. I have one in 22-250.

Does that say Assembled in Portugal by Browning USA?

It sounded like two groups of people having a confrontation about one thing or another so until we hear more details not really much to say about it at this time.

That is part of what makes SW better to some of us. But you have to know the game going in or yeah, you get hosed. These days you have to buy the Early bird upgrade ($12.50) as well to be in the front half of the aircraft. True. I fly them exclusively. Happy crews and very accommodating they are. I can usually always get a window seat and fly alone 99% of the time. Flights are extremely rare to not be ontime. Free bags is a plus but one carry on works for me except for return trips where I am usually bringing back a cooler of fish or sausages when I travel to Louisiana to visit family.

What's the secret password for the new Forum? My usual one doesn't get me in, and why do I need to enter a pw anyway?

This has been my experience as well. I ended up just using a separate gps with a pair of Midland GMRS radios and this setup has worked better for me. Just got a Baofeng and am going to get Ham license...we'll see how that works out. Which model did you get?

G&F said that it will open back up tomorrow. http://azgfd.net/artman/publish/NewsMedia/Tucson-business-helps-AZGFD-reopen-Three-Points-Public-Shooting-Range.shtml#.Vg7EKUANhpA.facebook

Too bad they aren't for an F250. Mine are shot.

Are you the original owner?

I have eaten there a couple of times, great food and excellent service. Much better than the one in Mesa or maybe because the waitress was just stunning.

Always liked their Albondigas and chips. First time I drove past it I told my buddy it either is going to be the best or worst food we were going to find. We ate lunch there weekly for almost two years. Always got there by 11 for lunch before it got too busy. We ate at that old train car too a couple of times. Stunk from mold but the food was good. Might spend the day down there tomorrow as I have a job walk with a customer in the morning. Probably take my truck so I can do as I please instead of the company car. Yeah, that's not the place.

Years ago around 2000 when I was working at Raytheon I would go to a place a few miles north of it that was an old house converted to a restaurant. I think it was on a corner near a park. Might have been near Valencia and Old 19.

Ne Ne are ok too.

That's too bad, did it get that washed out? There was always some water running across the road just before Mexican Camp but usually never more than six inches.

I used to hunt it every year back in the late 80's early 90's when there would be 1000 tags and you could also get a second tag. Mulies down low and WT were a bit higher. We would come into Horseshoe Canyon and camp at Mexican Camp, never saw any illegals except those being detained by BP. Rough country and no roads other than the one in and out. We never encountered any other hunters in the field back then, a few bears, parrots, coati's, javelina, an all white WT buck and one year a big all black wolf. No sure what access is like into Horseshoe nowadays.

Those two look like they would swindle their grandmothers.

Hunting and fishing are my sport. I don't follow any teams or watch any sports at all. I have been to a couple of baseball games, one Sons and one Coyote game when I was given tickets. Never been to an NFL game, just doesn't interest me.

No Way! That is pretty incredible.

Usually starts fading in the middle of the month.

Before the internet it wasn't much of a big deal to say what unit and there were less hunters, fewer hunts and more game. Now every Tom, Dic and Harry can spend a Saturday afternoon using GOOGLE searches to come up with pictures and stories then narrow down units. The more people put in for a unit the more the odds of getting drawn decrease. Some peoples initial response when a hunter posts a picture right off the bat is "what unit", not even a "congrats" which irks most people. Kind of like being on a hunting FB page and some clown shows up and their first post is all about hunting their high fence ranch, or worse selling cheap sunglasses. If a hunter offers up what unit on their own that's fine but it shouldn't be asked publicly.
