When you THINK you thought it

As I'm sure most of you know by now, Brian has taken a full time job with a commercial contracting company called The Woodard Group. Work has been very slow because of such an unstable economy, so when this opportunity arose, it was perfect timing. He is currently learning the ropes of a commercial superintendent, and will get on to estimating and job managing in the future. This is very valuable mangerial experience, as well as experience with commercial building, which he has almost no experience with in the past. We have still kept our company "open" and will take on side/sub work. Brian worked so hard for his Class A, it would be silly to let it go. He thinks he'd like to stick with The Woodard Group for awhile, but if the economy really picks up, we always have the option to go back to True Tangent (the name of our company). It's a real shift for him, instead of actually doing the work, he watches other people do work, he said it's actually pretty exhausting! :-)

All that background to say...the other day he was in their carpenters shop and met the cabinet maker. He talked with him for awhile, and helped him with a few things. He said it was very funny...you know when you think you are just thinking something, but instead you say it outloud?...well this guy accidentally said "Nice guy, strange hair" to Brian. Haha!! Brian said it was like, oops! I told him that would be the perfect name for his blog, if he had one. Nice Guy, Strange Hair. Hilarious.
