Sitting here with the family watching A Christmas Story. Ralphie just came down the steps in the bunny outfit.
I would like to wish everyone on Down Range a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
On a personal note, I start training for a new part-time job January 14. I'll be selling cell phones at AT&T. Still can't believe they're flying me to Minnesota for 3 of the 4 weeks of training. Training finishes Feb. 8 and I start school Feb. 11. I'll be going to trade school to learn machining (mostly CNC). It's a 15 month course, so at its completion I'll be 50 years old and starting over yet again. Gotta love the "new economy." It's scary and exciting at the same time.
I hope you all get what you want for Christmas.

Merry Christmas.
Congratulations on the two new careers. My older son did a stint as the AT&T store between careers. While not his favorite job, he did well because he was blunt, but polite with the customers. He did a lot of repeat business because customers liked his no-sugar-coating approach. Not everyone can pull that off though.
Then coincidently #2 son does training films for AT&T stores. His last one you won't see was the Christmas merchandising training. Maybe while you're in class you could ask to see it. He was singing a modified version of The Night Before Christmas.
And congrats on the machining school. When you graduate,maybe you could work for the CNC manufacturers as a tech sales or trainer. That's an option instead of as a user/op.
