@acolyte.... yeah man it wasn't this bad the entire time ive been here but as soon as I'd reach a certain wage and on a pattern etc... the company switches management and I got lagged behind... i'd get there again after years of work and bam... another regime. In the almost 30 years I've been there the management has changed 5 times ....this current one being THE WORST. I've got till Wednesday the 28th of this month and I'm outta there!!
To make it worse,the shot peen wheelabrator machine is so old and beat up,it leaks shot underneath the manual peen cabinet up to your knees... holes throughout that leak,this is like from the 70's... P.C.C. is a multi billion dollar corporation that owns 125 companys yet they cant buy a pocket change brand new $800,000 dollar wheelabrator .Sad... especially the fact it would pay for itself after 2 years.
Im so fucking sick of dealing with thier stupid asses I just can't wait to put in my 2 weeks notice... next Tuesday I put it in😁👍🤘🎸

@acolyte.... this stupid fucking company I work for has had new owners from who knows where the fuck for the last 6 years,actually 2 different owners... its nowhere near as good as it once ran. These stupid fucking prick supervisors have no knowledge and definitely no balls!!
These idiots wont listen to somebody who's seen a thing or 2 the last 30 years! These fuck heads care NOTHING about anything except thier fucking hot expedite jobs... Im the most productive in shot peen in the company's history and I actually had a GM question some of my production without investigating the wheelabrator first,FUCKING pissed me off boy,but because i was at work I held it together...
Wait in 3 weeks when i put in my 2 weeks notice!!! They are going to SHIT themselves sidewsys!!!!
And then the cock sucker GM will get a rookie fucking jobs up left and right or no production either or... That way he can MONITOR the new guy . Dumb fucking unorganized unprofessional cock suckers anyways!! I fucking hate this hell hole! My position is not irreplaceable.... but my 30 years experience is and they'll find out soon.
@acolyte.... I don't mind shot peening... but working for corporate management is a joke. Everything has been fucked up for nearly a year. Sick of lazy ass people,there is no common sense. AT ALL. Sure it CAN be scary but what scares me more? The fucking rent.... cheapest i can find is $1400 approx and every year it climbs up $100 bucks or whatever. Its a joke....im tired of it all man,Im taking the rest of the year off and make Victoria work lol

Guido, now van Halen seems to be squabling again, however I am wondering if Eddies cancer hasn't returned? And that is the reason they aren't going out again, and I sincerely hope the boys can work it out, this kind of the last time for all of them 50 frewaking years of priest, who wouda thunk "lol" Acolyte
[guidogodoy] Tuesday, July 9, 2019 12:40:27 AM
Yeah, I saw that too!
One can only hope about that "kickstart," eh Acolyte? Hell, doesn't look like Michael Anthony is getting back with a Van Halen tour as Eddie Trump hinted on quite some time ago...
KK playing with Ross the Boss. HA!!! Nice. At least he now has something to do.
You hear about Phil Campbell (from Motörhead) doing a solo album? Rob is gonna be in it, along with Alice Cooper and Dee Snyder (and others, looks like). THAT sounds like it'll be pretty cool. Can't wait!
Thanks Guido,getting steroid shots on monday for leg and now on surgery wait list! So a blessing in disguise news! KK going to play Bloodstock in august with the Band Ross the Boss -Acolyte
[Head banger] Tuesday, July 9, 2019 12:36:59 AM
Acolyte- yes I seen that Vail, should be great, Bloodstock is touting KK as the Legendary Immortal KK downing, I hope it kick starts thing, the boys meet for a cup of tea in the kitchen, talk bury the hatchet and Bam 50 year reunion and a new album!!!! Last like they did for Rob in 03/04!

Damn, man! Hard CORE!!! Sorry to hear about your knee but.... the fandom goes on?!
Acolyte- caught the show June 16th in kelowna all I can say is WOW! Between the set list, the onstage presence the show on the big screen and Rob's Voice!!!!!!!!! It was incredible!!! One of the best I have seen, had tix on the floor "second" section turns out the were only about 80 feet away from the stage!!!fantastic, still rushed the stage like a young feller and made it to about the 6th row, however i was waiting for xrays back on my knee to see what up(bad motorcycle accident 30 years ago) and sure enough it went out!(turns out my MCL is gone with arthritis and bone spurs) My buddy who flew in to watch with me said I was there 1 minute on the floor the next, and when it went out left side tried to save it so ended up wrenching that side so, watched unable to stand leaning to the right! Still a great show!!!!! \m/\m/

Damn straight, buddy! Glad you caught a good show (hell, I've honestly never caught a BAD one!). Priest RULE!
Guys Judas Priest at the Showare Center Friday night was spectacular!!!! Necromancer opened and even Out In The Cold felt at ease ... Take These Chains was awsome! Sure its Andy up there,no Glenn as we all knew he's in England writing riffs etc... its not Priest without KK and Glenn? Ok but thier not claiming to be something thier not,its a cellebration of the spirit of Judas Priest in my eyes and ears.
Studio wise its definitely Judas Priest because Glenn is all over the album,and will be on the next album too... but god damn Rob.... he's incredible!! Ritchie is such a fucking monster soloist Id go as far as saying he's long surpased Randy Rhoads to start with and the list goes on... its incredible especially live!
Loved the set list and the place was packed. Just so lucky to still be able to see the band live thanks to Andy! I know Andy can't possibly keep this gig being a producer but he sure is great live hail to Andy!!

Saw the article about the 50th anniversary tour, too. Next year, hopefully!!! Yaaaaay!!!

Damn. The creator of the JP logo, the artist behind some of JP's album art, from Sin After Sin to Point of Entry (also the hand holding the razor blade in the British Steel art)...is gone. What a loss. RIP.
Yeah. Sad, ain't it? And as long as Blabbermouth has their mics/tapes in front of him we're gonna hear just about everything and anything that comes out of his mouth.
Excellent set list!! K.K. was on blabbermouth AGAIN taking pop cheap shots at the band AGAIN. For a year now he has been negatively bashing Rob,Glenn,Ian,Scott Ritchie and even ANDY! I'm so fucking sick of him saying it's not Priest without him and all the other dumb shit he says. Why the Fuck would the band want him back after all the mud he's slung?
No way would I want him back in Judas Priest not now,not after everything he has said. Fans should realize it's him that has kept himself out of the band first by quitting then by shit talking the band.
