an elaborate tale

so convincingly real

Friday Night at the Print Shop ….

It’s times like this when I really like my job and career [and that’s a rarity these days] … two crews of guys working hard on overtime to get a job done right and on time; the presses running smooth and troublefree; the sounds, the smells. And then there’s always my almost empty desk, a nice fresh cup of coffee which for some reason tastes better now than it does during the day … and most of all, it’s peaceful, dark, and quiet so I get to relax a little, think, and catch up on some long-neglected paperwork. It’s a treat to be here now and sit back a tad and just enjoy the process of guys putting ink on paper with iron beasts, skill and dedication.
