so long suckers…

The SSGN Conversion is coming to an end. We have 20 people left on the project and the CVN-72 is starting up. I have a window of TODAY to get laid-off. I just couldn’t help myself.

I am no longer employed by Todd Pacific Shipyard. Out on my own again. This is a welcome break to the hectic pace involved in building warships. At the peak we had 175 people employed on the project with 4 managers and a Q.A. dude. I was one of the 4. I would like to thank Denny Rasmussen for the opportunity to serve aboard a one-of-a-kind construction project. Also, props out to Jeff O’Day, Torey Hansen , Brent Arnold, and Dale Samples for putting up with Electric Boat’s shit.

Most of all to the craftsmen and women that stepped-up and performed magnificently under the most stressfull conditions imaginable, thank you for making it interesting.

Now, where’s my fishing gear???
