I quit my job.....to start a new business.

[powdercoats]

I've been away from the board for awhile. There have been quite a few changes since i'd last been here. I was formerly known as Patton's 70, More of a lurker than a poster. I am working on a 68 SWB with an updated engine/drivetrain (lt1, 4l60e, Disc on all 4).

Anyway.....on to the big news.

After much thought and debate (about a year) I quit my job as a Maintenance Supervisor for a Primary Aluminum Smelter. I was working way too many hours, and was tired of all of the politics involved. The family was suffering through my work schedule and poor attitude. I finally came to teh realization that, in fact, "Money isn't everything". We (Family) decided to strike out on our own and open a powder coating shop (a joint venture with my brother). I know from reading prior posts, all of you on this board are very supportive. We are excited with our new business venture and I felt you-all would be excited as well.

We have moved to a new area and are having a hard time adjusting to weather,area and etc. I am finally able to get to the internet and this board again......so I'll be lurking and posting more in the future. I havent gotten access at the shop yet so I'll have to wait to get home to post.

Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I appreciate your moral support.

Thanks
Steve
