I found out that as a temp I was making more than the permanent employees I work with. I found out there is no future in my cubicle job. I found out I have an opportunity to make a great living running my own company. I'll be doing exploratory drilling, looking for minerals or basically anything worth mining. So I quit the cubicle job. My last day is Thursday. Part of my new job will involve driving around in the woods, and towing large pieces of equipment. The Honda Accord I have been driving will not be up to the task. So yesterday I bought a truck. A great big ol' Alabama Redneck truck, though Carfax tells me this truck originally came from California. Wanna see it? Ok, here it is:
That's a big truck. Really big. Both of the kids need help getting into it. I feel like a redneck driving it, but I do like it. I'm ready to go do some muddin'. There's a diamondplate toolbox in the bed and even a winch up front. Four wheel drive, of course. Towing package, even a Mopar thingy to activate brakes on a trailer.
Since I'm leaving the cube, I'll probably not be posting so much anymore. I'll be reconditioning drill trucks and driving around in the woods.
At the dealership yesterday they gave SD a huge pink balloon. She loved it. Driving away I said, "Do you like my new truck?"
She said, "Uh-huh. But my ballon is prettier. It's all about priorities, I guess.
