Calb56 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Productivity is one way job performance is evaluated, I had a co-worker conplain that I went for a cigarette every hour but our supervisor pointed out my production level was three times of his and if he brought his up then he could take a break each hour also.

Ace-Garageguy Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) Greece has never had much of a native car industry, with Namco making trucks and Jeep-like vehicles using bought-in mechanical components, and MAVA building thinly disguised Renaults; recently the Keraboss Super K, a limited-production off-road vehicle, has been announced as "the first car manufactured entirely in Greece" (though there have been a few interesting microcars produced over the years).

Ace-Garageguy Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 " Hoarded" kits from other old geezers' stashes frequently find their way into my "hoard", and if I don't build them before I fall off my perch, they'll end up getting "hoarded" by somebody else.

Ace-Garageguy Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) "With" is a preposition, and we're told not to end sentences with prepositions like "with", but nobody much pays attention to that these days...other than the terminally pedantic.
