Week 53
Workers from Big W wood plant in Stayon, OR were sent to the hospital after eating holidays cookie police believe might have been doped with pot. The wife of a co-worker is the plant manager of that site! I wonder what she has to do now. In Longview, there are several securities checkpoint located at various entrances, you can't really get in with out being checked, they also do random car search!
I have been dealing with the blue dye system in the last several weeks. The clean up effort was slow and frustrating. It was completed days ago and maint. contractor was contacted for repair work. Things took a wrong turn and now we are back to having messy and corrosive dye outside of the containment because some careless practices and inproper ways of switching a empty tote sometimes in the past 48 hours.
I am on cruise control mode in work week 53, just trying to float with 4300fpm. By the way, I am starting to be a penny pincher, well ok, just for work! (THURS)I just asked the piano man-twin to make some additivies adjustments and we saved $10/ton. Not bad, but could be better! Seattle Times with back wet edges are the hot topic!
Find out mentor JH got a promotion in ALB and SP, I think, good for him! Horace is nice and have send me an email to say hi. It's important to know that I am somebody. I miss having him around. He is a great teacher. But afterall, he is only a phone call away.
There was fire and medical emergency call, this time is for real and the individual was transported to the hospital. It was very disturing and the exceptional YTD safety record may go down to toilet! RIR <1! Wish I could do something to prevent it!

Sylvia Plath
I saw Sylvia Plath last night and found the story powerful and irnoic. Highly recommended and warning, it will get you depressed!
Hot Pot Craving

A date on Friday night!

Excessive!
Is he really worth that much! Is anyone?
How much rear end do you have to kiss to earn that kind of bonus?
Would he share a few million if I ask nicely? What if I ask *really* nicely?
Bonus!

Work week 52
As the last 2 weeks of 2006 approach, I have been busy at work, although I have a hard time seeing much progress, since most of my compliments have to do with being foreman before. The machine is finally starting to run well, but my daily activity is mostly restricted to chemical process monitoring. I have also been keeping busy working on safety, including a recent MERS' drill, where I got to save a 50 year old woman. I was placed in charge of the scene, a diabetic patient with a heart condition and no pulse or circulation. Even with CPR and the work of the whole team, we lost our patient. Hope I do better next time!
I also enjoyed my first quarterly envirnomental advocate meeting. It was a little intimidating to think that the responsibility lies with ME! Of course, it always does, for everyone in the mill.
In my free time (what's that?) I picked up a tutoring student again. The preparation is very demanding, and good practice for me to brush up on my rusty skills from school. It's tought to tutor after a long day at the mill, but good for holiday bills. In what little time I have left, I have been trying japanese learning! Buddy 2310 got me an audio program, and I picked up some isolating headphones, but there is only so much Japanese I can absorb in one day - most of it goes in one ear and out the other.
