Hey Clock,
We have not had a cookout here in almost 10 years. What do you have to do to get one?

Beats the hell out of me. We've never had one. All we get is stale, crappy sheet cake from Wal Mart.

I took my family (husband, daughter and in-laws) to the party. They enjoyed seeing the tour of the building and my daughter loved seeing all those trucks. My family had a nice time and they were able to meet some of the people I work with. We didn't eat anything because we had to go to a wedding that afternoon but they had a lot of food.
My daughter had fun making an airplane in the kiddie tent and she loved seeing the race car.
It was a nice time to hang out at work and not have to work. There could have been more but I don't know what I would have added. It seem well organized and overall it was fun.

"The dog and pony show came to Denver yesterday."
Hmmm.... I wonder how many they have, because it was here in Chelmsford MA yesterday too.
I didn't go, too much to do at home..... OK, to be honest, I wouldn't have gone for any reason. No way I'd go to work unpaid!
Friday they started us all early to kick it off. No Mikey, but D Scott Davis was there. He spoke, and was actually likeable! (Unlike Mike, who it hurts to listen to!)

Sammie, I'm surprised at your comments. If the guy works for UPS, it doesn't matter what capacity, he has every right to bring his whole fam damily!! I would think that's a good thing to make it a big family-type day. Think of all the folks who don't come....I'm sure there was plenty of food for everyone.

Tie and Harry, I thought I was peeing at Plaza Hotel when I was in that bathroom. Those things are truely amazing. Air-conditioned, spot-less floors and sinks. Automatic flushing. Hands-free faucets. Nice job Kholer

More,
You have valid points there.
But on a personal level, I probably have 25-30 entended family members in the Denver area and unless I was hosting a family gathering, it simply wouldn't occur to me to gather them all up and cart them off to a free event of any kind...

At least here, we're getting the lot cleaned up, things painted, new sod that's always torn up by spotters and feeders driving on it. So, life's good after all.
Hmmm...maybe package cars and tractors will get washed this year too...hmmmmm....

It was in Norwood too on June 2nd, I didn't go I was kind of surprised it didn't go to our hub in Worcester, I mean Norwood is just a center. You're a CHEMA a over9? So theres two people from there on here from that building. Theres one other from my building but I don't think I've ever met him.
In our center, we the drivers would eat half the cake before we left the building in the morning. Then when I would come back in the evening I would see the cake still on the counter looking like a big pile of
. The sups had finger ed the thing to death. Was it the same at your center?

I think that maybe your local could have spent that money better...Like maybe a strike fund...Plan ahead hope for the best, but plan for the worst.
