I do water damage restoration for a living. I'm on call 7 days a week 24hrs a day, among other things.  I work for a small company. My boss just bought me Trident 13 with all the fixins just too say thanks.  HOW FRIGGIN SWEET IS THAT!!! Now if he'll give me the time off to use it.
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land.  It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Well done Sir!! Having been a headhunter for many years and currently a Vocational Rehabilatation Counselor I have seen and see many companies and employees.  You earn this, it just does not happen without you being a high quality/work ethic person and employee. Deep congratulations to you!  Have lots of fun. It is great that you are sharing this with all of us. holt

Keep up the good work and hope for a short dry spell to get that kayak wet.   :D

I'm just happy my employer likes me enough to pay me every other week.   ;)

Hey,
Give us the name and address of your company.  I for one, would want to know of a company like yours.  If I ever needed or if I ever heard of anyone needing the services of a compnay like yours, I would be the first to recommend them.

You must have one heck of a great boss to pay attention to what you actually like to do.  Good on you for getting a tangible benefit in these rough times... my company is going the opposite direction  >:(

  My company just did the same thing, except I'm self employed so it wasn't quite as cool. See you on the water!

Thanks y'all. Glad to know all the hard work still pays off and the boss might notice, guess that means I'll stay employed for a bit longer.
