    What did I miss?

    Just logged into TreeBuzz for the first time in several years, out of curiosity. So cool to see a lot of the same folk in here that were here 5-10 years ago. I'm not sure I have any extra time to hang out in here, but I'll try to pop in every now and then. I am handing off the TCIA board...

I like to cuddle and I sleep in the nude. Seriously, though, if you are a single dude going to WMC, let me...

    Firing Complications

    Haven't been on here for a while, but felt the need to share this. First, people call me all the time looking for a job, and the first question I ask them is if they have a valid driver's license. It weeds out half of the calls. In October I hired a guy who said he had a valid driver's...

    Feeding your crews?

    I started something 5-6 weeks ago just to see how it would go. I noticed that the guys were not always bringing lunch, or bringing crappy food from the gas station to work. Some days they wouldn't eat lunch, other days they would stop between jobs and grab a heart attack in a sack from...
