Still Screwed Up after 2 Years!
 
I can't believe this message board is still 'haunted' by the same few bad
apples after so much time has gone by............

I just read the last 10 or 15 days of postings, and this news group is as bad
or worse than when I left it.

Well, for the old timers out there; an update:

I retired from Lucent after 37 years (to avoid being laid off and to 'lock-in'
my retirement medical benefits before they reduced the retiree health plan
options again).

I finally had time to do some travelling and went to Sturgis for the first
time this year. Aside from Stugis, I have been spending most of my time fishing
and just riding my motorcycles; neither of which I can do in this COLD weather
which is why I decided to check in on the old newsgroup again.

To supplement my income I have been doing contract engineering for a medical
electronics place. Since I get paid by the finished job, I can come and go as
I please with no set schedule, and I really like that.

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Now cross your fingers and hope the execs don't bilk the company into
bankruptcy.

Every try ice fishing?

Ain't it great? And a lot of states don't consider individual subcontracting to
be a taxable business unless you declare it as such.

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Dennis,

I don't know if you would remember me, but I just wanted to say welcome to
retirement! It's FUN, ain't it!!
Like you, I kinda got forced out in 2000, and looked upon the future with
dread. I worked all my life from the
age of 15 and couldn't envision not having a job to go to
or a "clock" to punch. I discovered a couple of things:
1) I am more busy than EVER, and (2 it is nice to get up in the morning and
have to option of doing or not
doing. I can get up in the AM, make a pot of coffee, and
go downstairs and tinker in my radio shack/shop, if the
weather is bad (snow, ice, rain), I don't have to go out in it. No traffic
to fight, no wear and tear on my car commuting.

The downside is that everyone now says, "OH! You can
do this little "favor" for me." or "How 'bout doing...........
you're retired and have nothing to do". Boy, ain't that a joke! There's
ALWAYS something to do.

But right now, I think I'll run up to a friend's shop and go to lunch!

Hey, now that you have more time with your retirement.........can
we continue our discussion on Peak power?.......... You hinted
that this newsgroup has become worse than it used to be, so I
figured a good old "on topic" discussion/argument would do this
group some good. Are you game?

Congrats on making it to retirement

Yes, I did! I didn't want to, but it worked out that way. I got "downsized"
and squeezed out by a huge corporation.
But, I am still fortunate. How many people can make
xx number of dollars while working, then go home and
make as much or more? Plus no commute.
How's that go on the McDonalds commercial? I'm LOVIN' it!!!!!

Don't knock it till you've done it. That usually means life
has been fairly good to you, as long as you're healthy.

That about says it. I used to hate it when the management would go out to
play golf for the afternoon.
Or go out to lunch and stay gone 2-3 hours. We got 1/2
hour. If YOU were 1 minute late, you got scolded; bosses came and went as
they pleased. Now I can do it
TOO! LOL! (Tomorrow is a day to help put up a Jo Gunn antenna)

play golf for the afternoon.
Or go out to lunch and stay gone 2-3 hours. We got 1/2
hour. If YOU were 1 minute late, you got scolded; bosses came and went as

Don't knock it till you've done it. That usually means life
has been fairly good to you, as long as you're healthy.

That's cool hangin' with the radio dudes, putting up Jo Gunn's,
and such. Sounds like you're enjoying the other side of the
coin now Jer.

Do any fishing?



Yes, but not extensively. Most of my fishin' is done on the Catawba River
with a cane pole and a cork! I catch
a few cats now and then.......................

Great way to fish for Crappie, really exciting if you get a "pike" on
one.

I can't believe this message board is still 'haunted' by the same few bad
apples after so much time has gone by............

I just read the last 10 or 15 days of postings, and this news group is as

bad
or worse than when I left it.

Well, for the old timers out there; an update:

I retired from Lucent after 37 years (to avoid being laid off and to

'lock-in'
my retirement medical benefits before they reduced the retiree health plan
options again).

I finally had time to do some travelling and went to Sturgis for the

first
time this year. Aside from Stugis, I have been spending most of my time

fishing
and just riding my motorcycles; neither of which I can do in this COLD

weather
which is why I decided to check in on the old newsgroup again.

To supplement my income I have been doing contract engineering for a

medical
electronics place. Since I get paid by the finished job, I can come and

go as
I please with no set schedule, and I really like that.

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Regards,

Dennis W. Ostrowski

a big striper on a cane pole.

Twist is right Forest. Because of the constant flaming here,
most would rather send you an email than have the BS that's

Yes Forest here he is again this little fairy we
call Gayshark and he is as much if not more
to blame than anyone he accuses because
he cant keep his whining to himself he takes
any opportunity to stir up trouble. Like your
post had nothing to do with him but here
he is like a assbag limp wrist fag boy crying
about flaming. Look in the archives Forest
you will see flames with his name on them
yes he flamed and trolled and forged people
and then like a hypocrite he complains
about others. Some people call him
Hypocrite Landshark but I just call him
an assclown.

No safe ice yet. It'a also a great way to catch Walleye and Perch
if Lake Erie freezes up tight enough.

I've been eating it for years. Lake Erie isn't the sewer it
used to be. It's known as the Walleye capitol of the world.

We'll see. You don't have a freshwater fish market near you?
