Hello there, friends, fellow-drummers and non-existent readers! Wow! Do you realize I have not posted on this blog since October of 2020?! That's ages ago! Five years gone! Wasted! Lost to the unalterable past! Well, let's quickly review what has transpired this past half-decade to justify my unnoticed absence.
I got a job.
Yeah, that's it. I actually got a real jerb. And what a jerb it was. Whew! I became a Product Packaging Professional at Husqvarna.....meaning I carefully secured parts and accessories in cardboard boxes and shipped them out for the delight of paying customers. The only problem was, I quickly discovered they didn't actually want professional packers, they wanted minimum wage workers to throw things in boxes and tape 'em up as fast as possible, customer-be-danged. Not my specialty.
So, needless to say, as my "productivity" continued to disappoint high-ranking supervisors and number-crunchers who never packed a box in their life, I eventually got fed up and walked. I hung up my yellow safety vest and left it all behind. My skill was not appreciated. I would like to point out, however, that not a single package created by me during my five-year tenure generated a customer complaint, had to be re-packed or came back damaged. Just sayin'.
Now I am officially unemployed, without health insurance and teetering on the precipice of despair but lo and behold, I was able to retain this pair of lovely insulated drinking vessels sporting the company logo so hell yeah, baby! I got that going for me. I also kept my personal industrial-grade tape gun so I will live to pack another day! That is, if I choose to, which I probably won't.
In the meantime I would like to announce that everything on this site is now for sale. If anyone is interested in anything, let me know. Thanks, the mpmm.
