Apr. 21st, 2008 05:30 pmToday I accidentally hit my crew chief in the nuts with a shovel. I put my field pack down next to the shovel, knocking it over directly into his crotch. Oops!
Also it is funny how gossip travels around the company and how the story changes along the way. Now, the company I work for has three offices which are for the most part completely separate, although we do on occasion help each other out with projects, so most people know employees from the other offices. In our office, we have something like forty employees, currently spread over four states. Various members of all these different crews, as well as the office workers, are constantly calling, texting, emailing, or in other ways communicating with the others that they are not currently working with. For example: yesterday, one of the other crew chief's on my project (TJL) got bit by a dog while in the field. Today my crew chief (RAH) got a call from an APM in Georgia (PC) saying "I heard your dog bit TJL." One of the other crew members (NS), who I'm pretty sure isn't close enough with PC to be calling him said "No, I said the dog looked like your dog."
Finally, starting Monday I will be in Laurel, Mississippi in a hotel without internet. Grrr.
