Brrr.

It's been over 105 F. here on the edge of the Mojave Desert for the past few weeks.

Got some rain the past couple of days so temp has dipped down to only 99; back up today though, I believe.



Here"s what I'm doing.

The only reason that picture was taken, is because I had these 5 all golds to repair that week, that was the first time ever I had for that much money of watches on my bench! The most expensive watch I ever repaired (in my short career), was a gent's platinum master piece (about $65,000).

What was wrong with the platinum master piece? Too many people drooling on it?

Which hospital in Dallas is that? I ask only because I think people who have fun at work do the best work so I want to come to that place!



I admire the heck out of doctors (despite many of their egos :) ). I work at a Staff Care a Locum Tenens provider and I get a headache just talking about all the procedures I have to know, much less knowing how to do them and having someone's life in my hands on a regular basis.
