Who needs to pay a therapist $200 bucks an hour when you can hop in a Camaro and just be happy?? LOL!!!

True, but let's keep that just between us Camaro folks; bad for business. I need job security to keep my RubyCamaro. But I totally agree about the cares of the day melting away as soon as I start walking to my Camaro, look at her & remote start her. Then sitting inside any remaining tension just melts away. Today was the first day that did not completely work. Got very bad news about my mother. But still Ruby was able to help. Some relief upon starting her then the comfort of telling her to call my loving mother-in-law who talked to me as & drove the 30 minutes home. Wish I was back in her now riding but I might find it too hard to come home. Prayers welcome.

I work a lot. I'm still here. :( At least I get to drive my Camaro home soon.

The work is good, though.

Seems to be a similar trait here, we all work hard and enjoy the hell out of getting in our Camaro at the end of the day to drive home.

I work full-time (40+ hrs a week) and go to school full-time, at times I get really mad and sad at the same time and I think to myself "why am I doing this to myself?". I hardly have time for anyone in my life and I'm constantly doing homework. But I work as much as I can to get my Camaro. Only 1 month left to order!

I would not consider my self a workaholic but I fit the criteria due to my profession.If power is out you do not go home,if weather is moving in,forget it,if another crew needs assistance,you work over.It is rare for me to get off on time.

The ride home makes up for it all.

My lips are sealed -- wouldn't want the entire world to own a Camaro after all

Sorry about your mom - hope all is going well!!

I work 45-50 hours a week and take classes too...(though the school may consider me "full time" I don't really think of it that way since it's one class at a time -- but they wrack my brain so I guess mentally I'm on full time!) -- top that off with over 2 hours of driving a day - ya, not much time for people....but I've always been good at keeping myself occupied....

When you have that Camaro you'll be happy you worked that hard - it's hard to see when you are treading water but, the payoff is worth the effort. I feel like that somedays and wonder why, at my age, I started back to school - and then I remember, that in 2012 (God

that seems so far away) I can finally get a job I enjoy and feel good about where I am in life....(ok, I already feel good having Cherry but

a better job that I enjoy would be a huge bonus)
