I just got an email from corporate bitching that I wasn't driving my company truck enough miles every month.????? I ride one of my bikes to work most days because I'd rather ride my bike, but some bean counter feels than because I don't drive the company vehicle the average of 2000 miles per month that I'm doing something wrong and they need to look into it.......WTF?????......... This is the statement I don't understand........... An investigation is pending on your personal use of company vehicles and they use of the company fuel card....????? I thought you guys were bitching I wasn't using it enough???? Now I have a personal use problem???................. It goes on to say that my use of the company fuel card is way below the average use for personnel in my job category and that further use of my fuel card should be scrutinized throughly.........
Somebody tell me what the hell that means please before I go postal on these assholes.................
I'm using too little gas and not putting enough miles on the company SUV and now I'm in trouble for it..............They got to be kidding me................
I'm saving them money and their bitching...........
3 years 1 month to go and I can leave this place with my retirement.......I hope it goes fast..................

The horse might not be a bargain anymore......
YEah...feed prices here have gone way up also..to the point you could get a bull calf for about 5 bucks..We have a good deal worked out for our hay..so thats no issue..But I think you will see alot of folks with boarded horses giving them up. be prepared to pay more for food this year for sure..
