She is even nicer to deal with than he is....I know she's easier on the eyes. This guy is strict but fair, however not all our tech people are as forthcoming...there is one in particular that seems to have lets say...issues!!!! I will leave it at that,
These people in all Divisions try to do a good job, given their current working conditions....however we don't all seem to see eye to eye from time to time, yet constructive comments, and kindness seem to go a long way, rather than the alternative!!!
Their jobs aren't always easy, its nice to hear a feel good story especially on this Remembrance/Veterans Day!!

Greg,

You are absolutely right according to what he relates to me. He is a big fan of Wesley (who isn't) and he even gets along with and likes "Mr. Sunshine."

He was pleasantly surprised at the warm reception that he received in Div 7. Although, he nearly got tossed right out of the gate this morning. He fired up the car to get it out of the trailer at about 7:30 since they were scheduled for 1 TT at 8:15.

Cal Method came running over and told him that they are militant about not firing up a car before 8:00 am. My buddy swore he looked all over the pink sheet of track rules and they didn't say anything about that. I gave him some crap about getting tossed from there like he got tossed from here. He didn't see the humor in it like I did.

Big hats off to Cal for saving my buddy from himself.
