If you didn't know, we have been on edge lately because Mesha (my wife) was facing the possibility of a strike at work. While, I did understand her co-workers plight in terms of wanting to earn what they deserve, I was also concerned with the fact that we had just purchased a Townhouse. Well, the county voted and accepted the latest contract. I do hope the County Comissioners take a look at the turn over rate and the fact that at least a 1/3 of the workers in this union qualify for the services that they provide the rest of the county the next time a contract comes around. Until then, we will be a little less stressed in the Torkelson household.
