New Guys

There seems to be at least 20 new guys who have posted in the last few months. Thats great. Don't hold back in joining in guy's. There is a good cross section of people in that group. I can say there is a good group of guys here and they're all open to learning something new.

Re: New Guys

I know, it is hard to keep up with all of the new posts. I am liking it. Welcome fellow dirt movers.

Re: New Guys

I am a "new guy" and I think this is a great forum. It is great to be able to communicate with people of similar interests. My wife is sick of hearing about dirt, but she tolerates it since it pays the bills.

Also, I introduced my Partner/Estimator to the forum and I think he keeps it running in the background on his computer while he works (now that's productive... ) Just kidding Rob!

Re: New Guys

Like Dirt Guy, was really excited to find a forum to talk about moving dirt!!! Dirt Guy is very much indeed obsessed with productivity...

It's not easy having a Nazi as a Senior Partner...

I better get back to work or Dirt Guy will be

Re: New Guys

Well Dirtguy and Dozerjunky welcome to this great forum, that moderator Denick guy can be a tough nut, but like the rest of the dirt guys he's ok, just getting old and grouchy.

Re: New Guys

I think the E&SW section of ContractorTalk.com is the best example of what I'm trying to create here. It's a community inside of a community.

Nice to see some new faces here. Welcome all you new guys!

You will definitely have to show up on "chat night", if we can get it going again.

Hi Tom,
I must have missed the post about the summer barbeque. Is it at Nick's house? I'll bring the chips.

Re: New Guys

I was thinking if tgeb, rino and pipeguy got a block of rooms at one of the Atlantic City casino's they could have us all there for a weekend.

Just thinking!

They might be able to write the cost off as a business expense?

Re: New Guys

Hey Nick and Joe, the Mohegan Sun group built a new casino right near me. Only slot machines for now. They are trying to pass tables here in the state now.

Re: New Guys

Rino,
Funny you mention that I think Nick is 1/2 Mohegan, he really has lots of pull at the casino.

Re: New Guys

Thanks a lot rino.

Did you happen to notice that you are almost at 900 posts and you joined in 1/06. I just passed 1100 posts and I joined a month after you in 2/06. Joe on the other hand joined just a month before you and he has 2100 !!!!!

Way to go Joe!
