Motown

Ok, here's my latest update. I was in North Carolina for about a month since my last post. One week going to a class for Nortel in Raleigh, and the next three weeks spent at home waiting for the work to pick up. I got the yard back in shape, but it will be very overgrown by the time I get back. It's now 3:00 am and I'm up listening to Coast to Coast AM, my favorite radio show. I'm in Detroit Michigan where we have 6 sites to build in the next couple weeks, but there are six of us assigned to this job so if we get all the material we need (50-50 chance) we shouldn't have any trouble. Nortel decided it would be cheaper to rent a car for me in Charlotte and have me drive to Detroit, so I spent last Tuesday driving up here only to find out that our customer, Verizon Wireless, had to put bar codes on all the equipment before they would deliver it to the sites for installation. They spent Wednesday through Friday doing that, so we should be able to start installation this morning. I did take advantage of one day off to go to the driving range in anticipation of playing some golf, but haven't done that yet. As usual I've spent my time hibernating in my motel room. Some things never change.
