Grinder...
Life has it's ups and downs and sometimes (on good days) I feel like the organ grinder where I'm orchestrating things to my tune.There are days when my workload is too much, especially when I get BS calls like the guy who has water damaged kitchen cabinets and wants to salvage the doors and drawers and only buy new boxes. I told him it's not worth the labor uninstall the old boxes, take out all the old parts and inventory them, install new carcasses and install the old doors and drawers to the new boxes. It's faster at the same price to purchase new.
I'm trying not to be the monkey and getting involved.
He's stopping by the office to show me what the existing doors look like and explain his part in the inventory.
Some days I feel like the grinder... and some days...

For the same price, I can get you new boots or you can have your smelly boots and all the signs of wear.
How much longer until you retire and leave all these annoyances behind you?
My wife asked if I could retire at 70. I groaned and agreed... if possible.
I would need an income and either work a commission salesman to pick and choose my projects or do design work on a part-time basis.
