  1. Speaking of union rules, I once got yelled at for moving a bookshelf to get to the outlet and cat5 jack. Apparently that's a union protected task, and it was a huge deal that I didn't contact the responsible department and have them do it. It would've had to of been scheduled and at least for a day or two out. All I needed to do was plug in a computer. LOL. Obviously not all unions are created equal. I just thought this was a funny story to share.

    My grandpa worked on rockets and missiles at North American Aviation/ Rockwell and my dad was just talking to me the other day about it. This was back in the 50s/60/70s time frame. Dad was telling me grandpa had to make a repair in a rocket. There was a plate on the side held on my four screws. He had to call and have a union guy come down with a screw driver and take the panel off. The guy stood there for four hours while grandpa repaired the wiring underneath the panel. My grandpa was a freaking rocket scientist but couldn't be trusted with four screws because the union got in the way.

    I'm not saying anything about the bill, just a union story...

  2. Got an email last night. Evidently my info got taken from usaknifemaker.com. I ordered the punch and dye to set the rivets on my kydex holster from them. They did offer to give me 10% off my next order.

    Was it the sites fault? If not, still pretty cool they'd give you 10% off.
