jacked in MI’s BodyBlog

I was at an assembly plant early today to assist with the launch of the new 2008 Chrysler and Dodge minivans. With the ramp up process underway, we will be at the plant for the next few weeks assisting with part installation and process changes to make the assembly of the vehicles as easy as possible. So for today, I had a good breakfast at 6AM but did not eat again until 4PM due to how the shifts were running and making sure each of the line operators/assemblers were met with to review the parts. I ended up sharing the bottle waters I brought with my co-workers so I was left with just one for the day. Probably not a good idea since I usually drink many through out the day. I experienced a pretty intense headache around 1PM that went away on its own. The icing on the cake was my 4PM meal. A double Quarter Pounder with cheese from Mickey D’s (I meant to order a regular ) and I topped it off with a Coke (something I have not had in many months). All I can say is that it tasted great and I felt great afterwards. No sluggishness or feeling ill. Even with that said, I won’t be doing that again any time soon. 

Fortunately tomorrow I’m only at the plant from 7-11AM so I will bring plenty of water and a few good snacks. After the plant visit I am off to see a Tiger’s game with fellow co-workers. No beer for me but I will probably have a few dogs   Keep training strong everyone!
