93. Sorry to see that...

Tue Apr 29, 2025, 11:05 AM

Tuesday

... obviously they pulled the rug out from under you as just got to the "fringe end". I am retired USPS, my dad is retired USDA and my kid brother is a USDA inspector in charge, as was my dad. He had been inspecting eggs... but they moved him back to checking the federally inspected local butcher houses/wild game processing places. He has lots of experience from Arizona to Kansas to Wyoming. Hopefully that will keep him employed.
