In an hour. For the first time since I got burned 18 months ago. Crazy, I cant wait. Not working sucks, even when your being paid to not do it.

Glad to hear you're "healed".

Wear better shoes this time, something in titanium maybe.

Now remember, you've been able to jerk off when ever you wanted to at home while on your long vacation. Make sure to think before you whip it out and tickle the weasel.

No. My foot really is fucked, the skin is like paper. Blisters from light walking. Even the heat from my harleys engine causes the top layer of skin to kinda soften and bubble :lol: Surgeon said burns take 5-8 years to heal correctly.

But I took a job as an Overhead Cab Crane Operator, which was my job before I took the one I got burned doing. Its a much easier job, and since I was hurt at work, our contract states the company has to pay me that rate for the rest of my career, unless/until I take a job that pays a higher rate. Since my rate was one of the highest, I can take any easy ass job I have the seniority for, and get paid the 3rd from top rate in Operations for it (Operator is third, Control room Operator is second, and Department Safety trainer is first). Control room and Safety Trainer jobs are mostly guys with more years Senority then I have alive, so itll be a while.

Great to hear you're back to work. It sucks that you're still not in the best condition though. Take it easy, man.

That still sucks, what happened at my work doesn't scratch the surface in comparison.

I was at work the next day, and was riding MX by the weekend...

We actually just got a 15 year extension, and approval for 195 million in upgrades. It is looking pretty good.
