One thing I found out when we took back a yard in Long Beach. Don't EVER piss off the guy in charge of the dinner car!

One of the hostler drivers in the yard made a comment, thought there was gonna be a rumble!

Well, people have bought a first edition graded black lotus card from Magic the Gathering for over 100k, and that's just a playing card--- so I'm not at all surprised if someone buys this

Yeah, we get testy. Foodservice gets little respect, anywhere. Yet, we are held to an unrealistic standard more than not.

Pretty much, my shift is 12 hours, then I start OT, but can't operate the train.

That's in Japan right ?

Hell , we can't fill pot holes in the road here let alone maintain track that will pass inspection to carry passengers .
Quote from a close friend of mine from way back in the seventies . He drove freight trains .
Side note : His custom made (the frame too) bicycle was painted the same color as his Volvo , he had a commercial airline pilots license and he was a first class shot.
I miss him ! ! !

GENERAL KNIFE DISCUSSION, fellas.

Clock is ticking...

 

[Daedric Panther]

$70k for a knife??? What happened to knives being tools, not jewelry accessories

 

[DMG]

I wonder if that knife ever has or will cut anything. I would have to try it. Good thing a Sebenza and a Carothers are my most expensive knives.
