 Monday - early afternoon

Done with that run - I was supposed to be off today but the full turn yesterday forced me to deliver today. Not that I mind doing the work, but I felt so cruddy this morning. Not feeling well, not at all. However.

I've got another run to do tomorrow which takes me to Wednesday and then after that?  The plant is shutting down yet again and I'm off for 5 full days.  This is getting ridiculous.  I was thinking here I am, working my butt off and hopefully keep on going - whether I feel good or not, I need the money.
