Latest happenings for me

There have been a few changes for me in the last couple of weeks, both at work and play. At work we have a process called 'bidding' when you want to change jobs. You actually bid for a job position and the one with the most seniority is awarded the job. Well in a fit of anger I bid a job to the Thornton post office and got it so I've been there for the last 3 weeks now, 5am to 2pm with sunday/wednesday days off. Well I get over there and the first thing they tell me is there are too many clerks there now, the bid shouldn't have been posted, they are going to re-post all but two of the bids and the clerks will have to re-bid their jobs. So believe it or not with over 24 years of seniority I was the low man on the seniority list so I would have been out of luck and sent back to the GMF working graveyard shift with crappy days off.

Now I say I bid this in anger because I knew some of this before hand, but in a fit of anger at my soon to be ex-wife and a few other things I bid on it at the last minute and actually got it. So what I did was when my old job came back up for bidding I bid on that right away and have been told I'm the senior bidder on that one. That means I'll be going to back to my old job at the Capitol Hill post office with Saturday/Sunday off 10am to 7pm. It's a good thing because over there my seniority level is about middle of the group so I'm better protected from having my job abolished.

The other good thing is the race car is running, I have almost all of the updates I needed to have done finished with just a couple of things left to do. The major thing I have to do is buy a truck to haul the trailer with as I had to sell the one I had to pay bills for the divorce.

An update on that is I have had all the paperwork signed and notarized on my part and have given them to the ex for her to sign. She has been dragging her feet for some reason so it's all in her hands now and if she screws around and this doesn't happen I'll be suing her for everything she owns.

So that's it from here, hope all is well your at.
