Very small. You also have to know which ones to buy, and get a little lucky in getting them. Also, putting in the time to get them.

Those $150 bottles, there was a limit of 2 per person, unless you were far up enough in line to circle back and get in line again (which I did). I was about 20th in line on at 9pm Fri, and they opened up at 10am Sat. The ones I got this past Sat, tickets sold out in 5 minutes (a ticket allowed you a free pour, and the right to buy up to 4 bottles). Had to get them at the brewery, however, which is 250~ miles east of me.

There is a brewery in Iowa that usually requires you to enter into a lottery for tickets for their top beers.

Good morning Lodge. So, I went back to my podiatrist to review my MRI results. And I have Posterier Tibial Tendon Degeneration. He's recommending FDL Transfer surgery. I'm OK with this as I feel it validates the pain I've been feeling for the past 4 months. It's day surgery (good) but will have me in a cast for three weeks and a booth for at least three more. I'm expecting more PT will be needed at that point. Now I just need to figure out when I need to schedule this. It probably won't be till after the first of the year. My two co-workers come back mid- to late-January. Now they can cover for me!

I also want to talk with our Benefits people and the insurance company. I'm wondering if it might work better for me if I go on Short Term Disability and be out for three months. It may heal better if I'm not constantly on it, you know? My doctor said he'd totally support that and recommend whatever is necessary.

Careful if you have a deductible or limits on things like PT, OT, etc. Most of those reset in January. If you do you want to try to do things before the end of the yr if you have deductible or a limits. You do the end of the yr surgery- deductible is already met, then PT that rolls in Jan so you get more visits before hitting limit

Evening, Lodge. Our overnight crew (who does all the receiving and stocks the shelves) were 3 people short last night. That meant my whole dock was filled with product, and is logged in as one location. It's really fun trying to find a single box among 24 pallets or so. My co-worker stayed late today to put stuff away, and helped me take care of a late-afternoon rush I got, so ended up staying late to help him put away the rest of the stuff. Really hoping tomorrow isn't a repeat of today.

Well, after about a 3 month extended vacation from work, just got the call that I'm cleared to return. Don't know when exactly that will happen, but likely over the weekend or on Monday probably.

DHBoss came by today, to see how things were going. Told my co-worker he shouldn't be working 10-12 hour days to clean up receiving, it'll eventually get worked out by that shift (despite it wreaking havoc at our building for shipping). Said he should stick to 8-9 hour days. And then added more workload to his job description. Co-worker politely went off, then smiled/nodded/said "fine," and then did what he was gonna do anyway. :D

This is why my co-worker and I get along so great. We know how to operate this "island" we work on. We are an afterthought in the grand scheme of things, which is why we have the freedom to basically run things the way we do, as long as the results please the powers that be.

HHT! OK, so it was an exhibition. But those NTDP kids are pretty talented. Traffic getting out of there was HORRENDOUS. Traffic getting there was pretty awful as well. I hate traffic.
