It is that time of year again where the family and I go on our Canada vacation up in St. Andrews in New Brunswick. If you need to reach me please contact a moderator as they know how to get in touch with me. There is (or at least there was lol) a internet cafe up there where I was able to check in on occasion and will do that again. See you all in two weeks, take care, Chris

Great to have you back. Any stories that would make for good telling? Sherri, I don't recall you being the shop owner's daughter. hmmm...........  Yes AJace, I am the shop's owners daughter so does make me bosses daughter. Ask Chris we argue, scream, and get totally annoyed with each other every day. We are too much alike and it scares me to think that I am like either of my parents. To my wits end dealing with him through the day, but non working hours, it's almost like I have a father.

I can recall how that can be. Just be glad they are there to help guide you. I hear it has some advantages. There are a few advantages like discounts, and the option to talk to didtributors and see what demo units are available. That's how Chris and I got our Mantis tiller. Of course there's the chance to be with Chris 24 - 7. I also gained the knowledge to help others with the things I have learned at work. But there are down sides too. The OPE world is only starting to get more female oriented, for example, the weights of the machines are getting lighter and they are getting easier to start, the stance most (NOT ALL!) men take on a woman in the parts department is dim, even dimmer if they see her with grease on her hands. So it's an uphill battle all the way. But all and all it is changing for the better. As for working with ones parents - I wouldn't recommend it, but it is a learning experience as is all jobs. Sherri
