I got most of the plastic off of the bulb and it looks pretty good. I scraped it with a razor blade and then scrubbed it with alcohol. I may go ahead and throw it back in there and see what happens since I got it pretty clean. I have a little cash that could go towards a new bulb but I was hoping to put it towards something else.

Any news on the job? Or is it to soon still?

I don't think I will get that job. The interview process was really weird and it sounded to me like what they really wanted was a sales person and not an estimator.

Right out of the chute the guy started telling about how bad the company is doing and how they had a really bad year in 2014. They are hoping to turn the place around by firing a guy and hiring two new people.
No pressure for the new hires or anything, LOL.

Wow that don't sound good when you are interviewing.
I know huh. I was stoked until he started talking and then everything went downhill. They have a sweet shop with some cool CNC machines and the shop was running so they do still have business. Just not enough I suppose to sustain the shop. They had a pretty big location in an expensive area so I'm sure they're struggling a bit right now.

Yeah, it was almost like the guy was looking for sympathy or something. He bought the place a year ago and it sounds like the business has been tanking ever since. He had all of his eggs in one basket with a big contract and the contract was pulled out from under him. He was left trying to make ends meet without the contract and it just isn't happening. I do feel for the guy a little but I also don't think I want all of that pressure on my shoulders.

It's not your job as a new employee to secure new work, to ensure you have work. That's crazy that he gave you the sob story line, like your going to invest your time and energy to save his ass. Sounds like he needs a sales man or learn how to use the internet to find business!

Eeeek damn, well at least it was your fan and not your head, yeah I think the bulb is junk though, Is it a pricey one?
I do all my stuff with the light off after I burned my nogin luckily I shave my head lol, I thought I broke that bulb for sure.
try cleaning with 100% alcohol, should get it off.

I found another bug I've never seen today. Weird thing. Looked like a big ant with a caterpillar attached to it. Or something.

And this bird was pecking on my door most of the morning. Then one of his buddies flew into the front room and let me carry him to safety. So cool holding wild birds. :) Hope everyone had a good monday.
