What print shop did you work for Andy? I currently work for Shelton-Turnbull Printers here in Eugene (I'm the mailservice manager currently).
That's crazy man I had a sweet job printing that I worked up through season floor help right before the rush died down and got on a press. Even worked a few different shifts randomly as needed until finally settled into graveyard. Learned all 3 and had a really nice career until they closed the plant. Get at me be cool to talk with a fellow printer about things not to many understand.
Good luck fishing.

Back before digital pretty much took over prep, it was also fun to tell people that we had strippers and stripping tables at work
Norpac in Stayton......I tried to keep good thoughts in my head all day while I pulled the icky parts of the green peppers out...it was really hard. When I looked at the clock and seen it was 45 minutes to lunch I started singing 99 bottles of beer on the wall in my head.....in 45 minutes I actually killed about 46 bottles of beer....might have stumbled a few times and taken a potty break so that really isn't an accurate count....:lol::lol:
Will catch lots of fish and take a lot of pics...for our report, of course.
You won't need luck tommorrow Rose-
a positive outlook and a redbull-Promise? What will I need then.....
Loved telling the new guys (in the middle of an emergency) to go and demand the eyes-a-trometer from the foreman "Why are you laughing, sir, he needs it NOW!!" hahaha

Sorry, Just one more.....
We used to send them across the alley to the other print shop to borrow a bottle of half tone dots. :lol: I finally took a little yellow Kodak fluid bottle and made a label that said: Half Tone Dots 50% black 50% white. I never got it back though. :lol:
30 years in the trade makes for some great memories.....
I started on an AB Dick and ended as a "Scanner Operator/Color Separator" at least until digital cameras and desktop scanners came along.......
