Days Like This

It's days like today (cold & wet) that don't make me miss my first job. I used to work at a container storage yard and I was the interchange clerk/inspector. I inspected every piece of equipment (containers and chasis) that came through our gates. And when it was cold, windy and wet like this, it was heck. The metal would be slippery and I would slip and hit my shins on the metal edges, my fingers would get too cold to write, cause I couldn't wear gloves to write and grip the paper. Your hands would hurt and you hit them and the metal door hinges. The wind would blow the water on my interchanges/receipts so everything would get wet and soggy. It would puddle a lot under the port so you would come home with cold wet socks. Man...... that was pretty bad. The good thing was I worked for some really great people. I do miss them a alot.
