well they were slow but the reason they let me go was apparently personality differences with me and the other guys in the service department. so basically the other guys didn't like me for whatever reason.

things are weird in calgary right now, it seems like we are slowing down now in some areas more.... not sure what is happening, we are supposed to be on the way up, especially with christmas. Good luck to both you, i cant help you out in that department for jobs unless you want to move 2 hours away to a small town and i have a good friend who is a shop foreman....

yah im not sure as i just picked it up and emailed them,i just laugh now because everything ive ordered for it has been wrong and have to be sent back. You think people would double check orders before they send it out the door

i said to my wife, there is no way what i ordered will fit in this box......

I'd be in for a christmas meet. We gotta do it, its become tradition. What would you guys say to trying a meet in Red Deer? We havent had one in the area since Sylvan Rape, so I think it might be time

Just throwing it out there...
