    How long have you been working there? Are you in the warehouse?
    I worked there for about 3 weeks when I first moved to Portland before I realized how horrible the hours were...this was like May '06...

    I was working then...Name is Mike, I was the foreman, just quit doing that, one of the new managers is a real ass. Could not work for the guy. I've been there since 02, been riding since Sept. 06.

    Before I drove my tired ass in every day. We dont work as much overtime, these days.

    You wouldn't remember me I'd imagine...it was just a brief stint, but I do remember you. I just couldn't deal with the 14+ hour days and bussing up there from deep SE everyday...it sucked ass. The money was damn good though.

    Small world eh?

    I saw you.

    I just thought you were turning right onto Burnside with me. Didn't realize you were going straight on 13th. I'm a douchebag and frankly, very embarassed. Luckily for you, Alex, I only took myself down.

    Only one word to describe this situation. I'll spare you, though.

    Oh and that pole I ran into? I told you I didn't want to walk there. But really, how many times do you get to see a dog with a beard? Too bad it was the last thing I saw after I went blind from hitting my face into a piece of metal.

    Just cruised back home (SW). On my way back I saw a guy on a Lemond Fillmore with bullhorns and wrongfully assumed it was MIN. Awkward.

    I saw spenser on the eastbank esplanade sunday afternoon. We were going in opposite directions, I tried to make eye contact and nod, but my efforts were futile considering we were both wearing sunglasses and you turned away to hack a wad of spit into the bushes.
