Chief Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 As some of you may know, the Grocery store that I was managing has closed it's doors in Cottage Grove. Great news though. I have just accepted the Store Manager position at the North Albany Ray's Foodplace. I start on Monday. The February meeting at North Albany Middle School is a couple of blocks behind my store. Stop in and take a look at the store, it is a very nice store. Guess it is time to hang up all my Duck gear. (sad) Go Beavs. Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C0lin Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 You can't just go switching sides like that, duder. It's pretty much the #1 man rule. I have a friend that works in the Beaver fan store, and I always go in there and talk ish. I even time it out for a buddy of mine to call me while I'm in there so everyone can hear the U of O fight song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowman Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Jay, to be a beaver fan you have to remove the "d" from your key board. Ask R-3 about that!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
180Brandy Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 So does this mean you have to commute back and forth everyday? Or will you be moving up to Corvallis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be commuting for a while. In this business, you do not want to get too hasty. My last move was for 3 weeks. Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelhead77 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Definitely congrats on the job! Like R-3, I too live about 3/4 mile from that store and shop there often. In fact, I get all of my RO-DI water from there. -Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spayne Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Guess it is time to hang up all my Duck gear. (sad) You know, you could just hang up all your gear and stop watching sports. (naughty) It's not a new job, it's a transfer within the grocery company he's been working for. He hated the store he was transferred to after the Grove store closed down, so he opted for the one hour commute rather than stay in Pleasant Hill. Or maybe the reason he gave was an excuse... maybe he wanted to get away from the nagging wife! (wife) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mltnguyen Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Gratz on the job I wish you the best. Ok now on to the traderish behavior. We ducks understand if you want to jump ship… we understand you don’t want to get tarred and feathered at your new job. All that we ask is that when you ditch that town you sport your real colors. Oh ya and whatever you do please don’t get caught with goats in your back seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr S Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Step into the light my son. Two good things have happened here: 1. You are 2 blocks from my school so you can hang anytime 2. You have now entered Beaver country where going to a football game does not involve puking or obnoxious behavior!!! LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
