      Well, after nearly 9 years in the car business working at the same dealership, I am no longer in the car business. I was offered a position selling residential solar systems for what appears to be substantially more money, enough that I felt it would be crazy not to give it a shot. It’s damn scary to walk away from a great job with a great company and great people where I had a lot of seniority and security, and step out into the unknown in the middle of a pandemic and all the other insanity going on in America at the moment, but if it pans out the way it’s being presented it will be well worth it.

      With this I say goodbye to my 9666Z’s being my near-daily attire and hello to all the rest of my jeans getting some long-overdue love.  😉

        Best of Luck, @xtcclassic ! I hope the move works for you.

              That seems like a highly sensible move given the way the world is developing. Exciting stuff, bon chance!

                        If @Madame Buttonfly  had wanted him dead it would have happened a long time ago and he wouldn't have seen it coming. @Giles obviously has his uses 😃

                            I'd just like to mention that getting excited about buying a new ladder is incontrovertible proof that you are getting old.

                            It is a really a cool ladder, though…

                                    Really? Am I misremembering how high your house is, because this seems way too short for that.
