Can I? The man has a new job, Rob!

But if the owner should ever consider to De-Moderne his collection ... I'll be there!

Whoa!!!!!!!!!!!Slo down cowboys! I get back to work for 5 days and your selling me off to the father land and Kenny -O is on commission !!!WTF!!!!.


The job is interesting. Ill leave it at that. Of course , as soon as I accept the job I had 2 other offers and one opportunity. one is a small restaurant near the hotel I was asked to resign from . chef ,50 seats , itallian medeteranean based with  seasonal ,   organic sustainable  blah blah blah. Lo pay + 20% of profit + local+ 5% ownership each year up to 20% ownership.

Sweat equity .  i would love to be back near my old job and show them what food is again .
If my hands get any more f'ed up I may sell them all so I can still cook. :mrgreen:
Once I get into a routine I have some maho dying to go to europe, then again the parts   oh the parts......................

Two old, and over used, sayings - sorry. but I feel compelled to dole them out again (must be getting old) ;D

One in the hand is worth more than two in the bush..

It's easier to find a job when you have a job....

My aplolgies :)

Oh, and be wary of fast talking Englishmen :mrgreen:

 If I were to do another Moderne. i would do 3.  It would take a bit more time but once you set up a saw or piece of equipment ,making repetitive cuts are easy as long as you start organized and number the pieces as you go.

Yeah old but true. Its too hard to explain . In short, Im making sandwiches for take-away service(premade)  . I was hired as a cafe manager and there isnt a  kitchen . its in a Bakery  specialty store that is busy. they want to expand the take-away concept to a Cafe style. No one in the company has any food service  or restaurant experience.Now that Im there my instincts tell me  beware. They want fresh local meats etc and all I have is an electric maytag stove.
The opportunity is more my style . Ill know If the owner  want to meet this  week. . We know of each other but we have to have some face time over a glass of wine to see if the chemistry is right. I dont have a boastful ego but I  have a loyal following in town because of my 20 + year tenure as a chef. I may just roll the dice. we all know about following bands & players so its kinda similar....I think.

Kenny-O we can talk......................................... :mrgreen:

I can assure you that my assistance would only be in hoping Uwe get's something almost "unique" and most certainly "Gibson-flavoured", with my influence being more "catalytic" than "cash"...  ;)

If time is a problem, here's a totally off the wall idea, would this be a job for "Bach-Man"...  :o

"Shadocastaz" (sorry, don't know your name), should this go on the Rob/"Basvarken" list of future projects... now that I might be tempted by... the first thing that should be asked, simply out of respect to your gorgeous efforts, is your permission to forward the idea...  8)

It woudn't have the charm that Mike's masterpiece has.
Plus BaCH doesn't have any korina to build it from.
(I asked them a while ago because our guitarist would love to have an affordable yet well built korina Flying V or Explorer)
