Wiring is a down-hill slide for me. I was an F-16 avionics tech and now a field service engineer I actually enjoy wiring

Thanks man. It's a free market and therefore my choice to work this job. So no complaints! Just finished a project early so I'm done! Should have a few "normal" weeks before then next one.

I feel your pain. I had to work 12's seven days a week for six months straight. It wears you down pretty quickly, especially if you have any kind of commute. What sucked the most was that I was on salary and didn't take home any more money for it.

That is a quick way to burn out your people. I hope you can get back to a normal work week soon.
Fortunately, I am compensated for all the OT. 7x12 for 6 months?!? No-f'n-way...

Thanks for the link. I've already bought an Optima Yellow Top made for Miatas.
