Sometimes equipment breaks down.
Lower back soft tissue injury…safety first.
Software tracking issues.
Etc…

They can’t get ‘The Blue Flu’ as when cops go on strike.

Wonder what the Unionistas will call their next stunt in the hopper? ;)

They took up this legislation “just to pass the time away”.

Beau is a Union Guy. Now, retired, but keeps is Electrical and Plumbing licenses up to date - just in case.

He was also in the Labor Union, where he worked himself up into the more lucrative trades and ended up as a Foreman on huge construction jobs - power plants, wastewater treatment facilities, new subdivisions, The Kohl Center (I worked on that project, too, but we didn’t know one another back then) and the famous ‘Mistake by the Lake’ Frank Lloyd Wright center in Madistan, WI. Not bad for a kid that started out building silos for a living. ;)

He would agree with you heartily about the intelligence of some of the everyday laborers. He annoys the HECK out of me, ‘Mansplaining’ minor details to me if I’m working on a home project. Dude! I KNOW what I’m doing, LOL!

Ha. Maybe you should get him to do some projects to get him out of the house.
That or he needs a hobby. Lots of people can’t just chill after retirement.

Oh, Gawd, no! He is the busiest Retiree you’d ever meet! Hunting anything that moves, fishing, traveling, etc. He has a million hobbies from reading to making Maple Syrup, tanning hides, various lanyard braiding projects, breeding/raising hunting dogs with me, planting food plots for wildlife, he built me a greenhouse, repairs to our tractor, skid steer and his ancient F350 truck, constant improvements to out-buildings and the house, etc.

I always say he’s the Best. Boyfriend. Ever. EVER! Pays all the bills and is gone hunting 6 months out of 12, LOL!

But, he still makes me crazy with the ‘Mansplaining.’ His only flaw, actually. ;)

You chicks need a good mansplaining every so often.

Motor control center. He fished a conductor on a live backplane with a steel fish instead of a fiberglass one and wasn’t wearing appropriate PPE.

LOL! He did it again, today.

I just looked at him and said, “Did you say something? Because all I heard was, ‘Blah, Blah, Blah!’”
