One, two, buckle my shoe...three, four, out the door!!

That's right, guys.

All the spit and polish has been completed last night....and I'm all set to start my new job today.

Monday morning here, coming up to 7 am and I'll be off by 7:45 to start up my first day's training.

Wish me luck, all you wonderful guys!!

Cheers - JJ

Good luck JJ, I will start to my job at August as they promised me but even now Im at 4000s and I'm really stopping myself not to buy a SS Sub or SS GMT Master black-red hardly and inpatiently waiting to make 4, 7 to get blur TT instead of full solid steel.

Good luck, JJ. I hope you didn't forget the sledge hammer so you break those windshields in one blow. After all, how are the real sales reps going to sell any replacement glass if there's nothing to replace?

Why did you give him that opening, Allan. Do you really want him to bore us to death?

All the best on your new job JJ.

Always remember, hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all.

Thanks for all the good wishes, guys.

The first day was fantastic. Mainly training on the computers. Tomorrow we'll have more training on the different auto glasses and the manufacturing processes. Should be interesting.

Today had quite a fair bit of cleavage viewing too!!

You might get a discount on some new spectacle lenses. Be careful of looking at too much cleavage, the ewes will get jealous.

Sorry, Ed - forgot all about...



Oh. I see he's already responded - and it's short! Fantastic, JJ. Please look less at the cleavage and more at the computer for now. You could stand some improvement in that area!!

Glad to hear everything worked out ok with the new job. Good luck, and don't let the sensory overload distract you. On second thought. Go for it!

If he does not like his new job, I hear RADO needs a rep in New Zealand.

JJ, great to hear you happy after the first day on the job. You were worried I know, and you must know that workers over the age of 50 are the most loyal and respectful and dutiful in all the work force. And so I am sure you will be one of the joys of that organization just like you are for us. I am proud of you bro. But describe the cleavage a bit more will you?
