Greets my fellow Chronicleees! Had a FULL day of training. From 8am to 5pm. It was brutal. And for those that know the Phoenix metropolitan area, 5pm is NOT a time to attempt to venture home! I jumped into my truck and began heading through downtown Phoenix. On the radio, the deafening words crackled to life- "Five Car Pile-UP on State Route 202"... Just friggin great. No freeways for me tonight. I proceeded to wind my way through surface streets all the way home. 2 hours and 15 minutes later, I pull up into my garage. Fortunately I stopped at the local convenience store for some ice cold beer. Gonna need it tonight.

Remember last post, I mentioned that my hours were going to be 7 to 4? Well scratch that.... THEY GAVE ME THE HOURS I WANTED! They gave me 5am to 2pm! For those that don't know me, I'm a notorious morning person. My normal wake up time is 3am. Even on Saturdays. I'm most active during the early morning hours. I fade out fast past 8pm. Gonna start those hours beginning Sunday with Friday & Saturdays off. I can deal with that.

Well, gonna surf for a bit and head off to bed. Got a ton more training tomorrow. Everyone take care and until next we meet: Peace...
