Bunnings Relays

From February until July I worked for 'The Otter Group' who produce a number of hardware lines specialising in nails, fasteners and screws. 'Proline', another company who run screw lines had managed to sell and negotiate a new national layout so working for Otter i worked alongside Proline relaying Bunnings stores thoughout Victoria. THE OTTER CREW Angela Jackson - Geez she had a serious attitude when i first started. Nothing changed! hahah. Nah she ended up being pretty cool. Definitely one of the boys and loves it. Would never tell anyone who her boyfriend was though. Sara - My god. No offense but there was something wrong with her. Impossible to communicate with. Bianca - 'Coach' was under the pump. Down a few members she had to look after the team and work a territory. Always possitive, happy and helpful. Daniel - The rumoured affair with Sarah never happened. Always remember working with him and Daniher's Mitre 10 with that guy who laughed like Waluigi. The PROLINE TEAM Steve Stewart - the brains of the operation. He was all about his 'A-Team'. No wonder we all had so much fun. Soggy Sao. Used to go on about Otter Packaging all the time. Greg - Nearly got in a dust up with a customer who didnt care that he was not allowed into our work area. Go Greg. Paige - She'll have a long and distinguished career as a plumber. She could never get Carlos' security on the way, or security acknowledged right. Beth - Greg's young wife. hahaha. What was i supposed to think Shane O'Brien - what a funny guy, needed a few more coffess to relax i reckon. I'm going to bere TILL F$#^# EIGHT O'CLOCK!!!!! Thanks for popping in today mate. Mudda Mudda from the 'Wherethefuckarewe' Tribe 'C'mon. Do it' Arnold Schwarzanegger style Bloody Shnotter!, I used to say Proline was Hoeline. Jay Lee - awesome bloke, has seen a bit of action in his time. Carlos - The coolest fellow wog i have ever known. Phone prank we played while in Wodonga. 'He's in good hands' Apparantly he rung Nova won morning. Dave Hughes said to him 'You make a good point there Carlo!' Rounders sayings 'Paahhy himm. Paaahhy tha tman his mahney' Arnold Schwarzanegger - Good morning gents! Carlos telling Steve after checcking out the stickers 'Carry on' Graeme - Kenny Rogers was very 'hands on' with his work Good memories from this job. Great people, enjoyable work and flexible hours. Asides from having to be at a particular place 2 days out of the week at 7 in the morning. Some long drives but got through it all easily with my routine, Coffee thermus, The Basketball Jones, and my Ipod music. I listened to a fair bit of Illmatic, Woke up This Morning - Sopranos theme, Open Fire, and the Relapse album when it came out in late May. I think the biggest day i worked was at the Melton store. I think i did the whole store in one day - got up and left home by 5.15 and got home after 9.30 at night. A big 16 hour plus day.
