Fifth. He is the fifth... President Obama was named the 5th best president by Texas A&M. 1 Reagan & Lincoln tied for first 2 Seventeen presidents tied for second 3 Twenty-three presidents tied for third 4 Jimmy Carter came in fourth, and… 5 Obama was fifth

Uhhh. You're wasting your time.

I stopped by a friends pawn shop today to browse & spotted something that I apparently couldn't live without for another day. A stainless Ruger P89 in 9mm in really nice condition. I've never owned or even had the chance to shoot one, but most of what I hear from owners is positive. It certainly has a hefty feel & I like the grips. I regret selling my P95DC a few years back without ever shooting it. I'll make sure this one gets some range time.

I was playing around in my garage, trying to create something unique for my 1911 collection. I had this idea. This is how it turned out . . . . . (photo heavy)

Going back a bit tonight... scotch in hand, laid back on a late Friday.

Shop I work at is looking for a good auto tech. We are located in Spring Hill, Tn. Not the typical over staffed shop. You will have 2-3 lifts to work out of. Good people to work for. Paid holidays, paid vacation, insurance. Shop scantool is a Verus Edge. Subscribed to prodemand and identifix. PM if interested. Just don't lie in the interview like the last guy. Be honest about your skills.

Kimber new 6" 10mm hunting 1911. Personally I think this is sexy AF. Then the MRSP of $2688 brings me back to reality.

Nothing very compelling in a very crowded and proven market. It isn't: cheaper, smaller, proven reliable or more accurate.

That's funny. I can't help but wonder where this "survey" ranked Carter.

All that matter is were he ranks with me, and that's below a snakes belly.

Real smooth! Think I've finally found my favorite single malt Scotch.... under $100 anyway...

A person doesn't work in a vacuum. Someone with a good customer attitude can have that attitude ruined by a work environment where they aren't treated with at least a modicum of respect by their employer. If a person's employer has a piss-poor attitude or treats the employee like he or she doesn't matter then that employee probably isn't going to have a very good attitude, either - and you can't really blame them. Further, if the work environment is hostile or geared in such a manner that employees are pushed to "hurry up and get it done" regarding getting stock on shelves, etc. then such pressure can result in the employee feeling like they don't have time to devote to customer service and the truth is that they may not if they want to keep their job. On the other hand, if the employer creates an environment that not only fosters a positive attitude and let's the employee know that he or she isn't going to get yelled at for spending time helping a customer, even at the expense of getting other things done, if necessary, that is going to help a person with a good customer service attitude maintain that attitude. The fact is that a person's environment, how they are treated and such things have a major impact on that person's attitude, interaction with others and job performance. That isn't just my personal opinion but is based some of the basic tenants of Human Resource Development.

Just because she's expensive doesn't mean she isn't hot.

A large component of good customer service is within management both empowering the employee to provide it and encouraging it when they do. I've been at many big box stores where it's obvious the regional/national overlords have tied the store manager's hands when it comes to actually doing anything to improve a bad situation.

I'm in for heavy.

Nice work!

I for one don't place a lot of value on customer service, its just my style, I think its over hyped. But what I do know, I don't think its the sign on the business that makes the customer service, but who the person is providing the service. Example, take the manager who the OP dealt with at Home Depot, and put him at Lowes, I bet you would get the same caring customer service at Lowes. Or take him and put him at Sears, Tractor Supply, or the local tire store, and the customer service barometer will always be high.

I went back a little too, Lynard Skynard Street Survivors jamming on the way in to work tonight.

I miss the old days when the commies were all you had to hate.

Very nice job!!!!!

I take it as a sign they have no meaningful counterargument, and accept that their resorting to a pejorative is just another way of offering their concession.

I'm not THAT skilled . . . . I started with a few sets of grips I already had. Finding and embedding the coins in a non-destructive manner is my contribution . . .

It took me three days to get back to fulfill my committment to upload a photo or two, but here you go . . . . . My Ruger stable, from front to back . . . P94 - .40 S&W P85-II - 9mm P91 - .40 S&W P90 - .45 ACP

As a small business owner for over 10 years now, bingo. I would disagree with the hard work statement as I think people misunderstand that. It's not just about hard work (hours or physical labor, one or both will apply) it's about smart work and most of the time, risk. I took a great risk 10 years ago and am now seeing the benefits. People want zero risk and want to put zero smart effort into their jobs these days. The ones that do are making good money.

As with all things that can cause harm to people or damage to property, I suggest you host a TGO gathering and provide lots of whiskey. We'll figure it out.

My wife and I are the only people in our home along with my best bud Brodie, a large for his breed Yorkshire Terror that hears everything. My handgun is laying on my bedside stand every night holster free and keeps my flashlight and two full extra mags company. I'm too old to fight and to slow to run.....and I have no intentions to do either.

Crown is good, but there's a whole 'nother world out there.
