Back to reality.....

Fuggin WOW

I gotta throw in there once again, that I love my job and I love AirMed. I have been treated so well and with so much respect the last few days at NBAA its been unreal ! Very expensive wine, Petron , Louis XIII Conuaqe ( or how ever its spelled ) Germany Ice Wine, Steaks with car-vah-cee-a , extravagant appetizers just brought out non-stop, the lamb, alligator, lobster, rockerfella oysters and all that type of stuff..... deserts with Gran Mari-nayea yay ! Not to mention I have easily 100 bucks worth of sweet ass cigars ( and I was not being greedy ) to stick in the Dirty 30 for rides.. Churchhill and the likes, oh they smell so wonderful and I even had one hand rolled in front of me traditionally... MMMMM **** SON!!

Now its back to Ramen and trying to afford gas pay check to pay check. What a life though, un believeable a guy like me can experience that stuff and not spend 1 dollar since Sunday.

I used to think I wouldnt live extravegantly if I had fat money or some lottery stuff... sheeeeeiott, Id eat like a damn king and sip small amounts of highly expensive liquor as often as possible. Its un-real ! I hit a sensory overload smell, texture, taste, OH DAYUM !!! Im wrecked drool

I have two conflicting positions on this topic.

I own my company, whipping out the company CC hurts my person
I will be touring UT Law while my dad is Austin, planning on living fat while he has his companies' CC

My how positions can change when viewing from opposite sides of the fence! laughing1

Seriously though, that's awesome your company treats you well in the age of expendable employees. I certainly try to reward the contractors that work hard for me and aide in my success. Let your employer know your appreciation, its a reciprocating relationship.

I have had that oportunity on a rare ocassion as well , I have gone to other countries and wined and dined and golfed with a few Pro's ( john Daly, Vihjay Singh) and lived the life through other people's wallets. But I still come back to the realization that money does not make you happy, but it sure makes you feel better. There are other riches in life to enjoy other than one's you can purchase.

P. enjoy it while you have the oportunity, and I am sure you earned every bit of it to.

Shiot when we have service meetings and they bring in biscuits i get excited. If i had an experiance like that i would'nt know whether to shiot or go blind. Congrats on a good time man.

I had something like that when I worked at a Freightliner dealership. I won a trip to the Homestead Nascar race. They put us up in the keys and everything but souviniers and breakfast was covered. We ate like kings everynight and usually drank like them too. I got to have supper with Richard Petty on one of the nights and even got to wear his cowboy hat. The weekend ended with me sitting on the pit wall to see the finish of the race. Well worth my time and something I'll never forget.
