Happy Fathers Day... who else is working?

[Ajcoholic]

My plan was to go camping with my two boys all weekend...

I ended up working all weekend running my Shopbot to cut out about 100 bench/pew ends and supports, to bail out a local contractor who took on a job they couldn’t produce.

Ironically he’s probably spending quality time with his 3 young kids.

Life of a self employed woodworker who’s empathetic, lol.

I'm sorry Andrew that you missed your planned outing with your kids...….. But hopefully you will still be able to spend time with them today, and earn some money to take a trip with them on some upcoming weekend. Chuck

Yup...Employees have no clue what it takes to run your own gig.

Packing up another laser scanner for the USAF....and doing paperwork. Endless paperwork...

No work today, but I may not be working even on a regular workday. I feel lousy, but I'll probably be back at it tomorrow regardless.

A guy I used to work with said that the best thing about Friday was that there was only two more workdays in the week.

Yep - lacquering a kitchen worth of doors drawers and face frames.
Quitting early today (2pm) as family is on the way over.
Good thing I love what I do...!

Happy fathers day to all!

A construction company that I do a lot of work for says they only work 1/2 Days....... 24 hours in a day, so they only work 12 of them. That's actually a short day for me more times than not. I'm getting to the age, however, that long days will occur less & less in the future.

My two employees are great. They know what we do inside and out, and have a 100% realistic view on how my company operates. That being said we all have small kids (from 3 to 13) and I didn’t have the heart to ask them to come to work this weekend. They work overtime when needed usually.

I got home about 6:15. They surprised me with home made Father’s Day gifts and a pizza supper, lol. I have two very good boys. One is almost 4 and the other 7. I am blessed to have two great kids!

Well that sounds like quite the happy ending to the day! Congratulations, Chuck
