well it's my last day at this job, can not wait to start the new one.
I have had many many laughs with a lot of you. I have made some great friends here on TT. I am not sure if I will be able to post at my new job, so I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to all of you who have helped me enjoy my days at a job I was not happy at. Trail talk is really like a big camp fire, just sitting around and chatting and fighting and then laughing about it.
I will try to pop in when time allows. so to you all, take care and email me so I don't feel left behind.
hugs....and see you on the trails!

Same here. Just started my new job a week ago. Been doing my best NOT to post, and not to start up some sort of bad reputation as an Internet time-waster.

Looks like posting will be fine, from what I can tell -- but still.. I'm going to refrain from posting much for now. I miss you guys though!

If I didn't tell yas, the job is 15 minutes from my house -- so I feel like I have died and went to heaven!

I am pleased to announce the addition of Chris Fox to the Heavy Duty/Off Highway

Chris resides in Bruceton, TN with his wife Debbie. They have two children Jordan and Christen who will both graduate on May 13. He enjoys spending time with his family, backpacking, deer hunting, and the outdoors of Tennessee. Please welcome Chris to our team and give him your support as he takes on this important role.

companies should have "incentive dinners" such as the bon voyage meal, to improve moral and keep employees on the job longer
