    I mean in theory the Blazers gig pays enough to take the summer off if you wanted to right? You just choose to take some gigs over the summer for the extra cash right?

    Ehhhhhh. I am well compensated by the team for sure. But I’m not salary. I get a day rate for work. So they only pay me for what, six months a year. If I was a single guy with an apartment, sure. But I have two teenagers, two car payments and a mortgage. My wife took 8 or 9 years off when the kids arrived, and then we moved back into the neighborhood we both grew up in, so our mortgage nearly doubled. So I really had to grab as much work in th offseason as I could. She has since gone back working full time, so it allows a little break for me in summer for sure. Family is used to me traveling, it’s all they’ve known. So I make sure I go and watch all my kids practices, knowing I’ll miss some games. And in the falls I’m doing fights, I’ll catch my son’s Friday night football games, leave on 6 am flights Saturday morning, work and be on 6am flights back home Sunday morning to catch my daughter’s soccer games. Can be a grind for sure, but I love it.

    No. We talked about it. I worked 18 of 20 Days I was there. 12 hour days and we were in these weird dorm style apartments. She knew it wouldn’t be a fun trip for her. I’ve taken her with me to Hawaii for work and Mexico though.

    No but she did get a Brazilian for me to go down on a year or two ago...

    ...I feel like I should pay Sly the $50 to ban myself after that.

    I'm not sure how well this prints but here's a schedule I made that y'all can save and print.

    It's probably best to print it landscape, not portrait.
