Hey Mark,
I know I haven't been around in a long time. My weekends have been pretty busy lately. Honestly I've only raced once in past 2 months and I had to take a Friday night off from work to do that. Yeh I went up to Lester's to run SCT that night. Another reason why I haven't been racing is because I've been motorless for almost 1.5 months. That's pretty funny to hear coming from someone who has a motor sponsor....
I've been waiting on several motors for my vintage cars and 2wd / 4wd's. Things have been all screwed up due to Trinity moving from NJ to Florida. They should be shipping motors to Express this week. I should have mine sometime next week. If they get to me next week I'm planning on coming down next Saturday to race. My attitude towards racing (or the inability to race) was realy bad for a while and I actualy was ready to give up and just go back to carpet. I was trying to sell all my off-road stuff for a while. I finaly pulled my head out of my a$$ and realized that I need to get back to having fun. I did sell the ZX5-FS but decided to keep the SP. I picked up a Hyper 9E to run some 1/8 as well. I still want to sell the RB5 so if anyone is looking for one let me know. Hope all is well with you and the rest of the RCHR crew. Hopefully I'll see you all next week!!!
In addition, with the ROAR races coming up in July and August at Control Freakz, the SCT Nationals in July at Madness and trying to squeze in some 1/8 racing at various tracks my race schedule looks like it can get very crazy this summer. I'll try to make as much time for RCHR as possible. I do plan on attending the Vintage Nationals. I will be more of a regular come November. It sucks that I can only race everyother week.

Man, I need a new job...
I'm a receiving clerk at a food distribution company. The inventory is off on Grande brand mozzarella cheese used for making pizza, around 60 cases or so. They ask me why the inventory is off (basically wanting to know if its my fault).
I've been at this company for 10 years now, we have been getting this cheese (50,000lbs) every week since before I started there. The delivery has had an error maybe 4 times in that ten years. Even if I never checked the delivery, the inventory wouldn't be that far off.
This is not the first time the inventory has been off, this is not the first time they have asked me why. I have told them on multiple occasions why I think the inventory is off, but still every 6-8 months it still comes back around to the same stupid question.
Repeated stupidity gets on my nerves.

If that isn't enough, when I receive the product and put it thru the computer, it prints me out location labels to put on the product. If I have extra labels or I'm short labels when I put them on the product, then I know something is wrong before it even goes into the warehouse. So everything on my side ends up being double checked.

+1 my job sucks since I have gotten new management. not only more work and taking away anything of enjoyment, but its the politics that goes on that are driving me nuts.
I also got pulled aside by the director yesterday
The only good thing is I have already put in 51hrs this week and I am done. Shit will still suck when I go back but I got 3 days before I have to deal with it.
