"Fuch You." is ill-advised.
"You gots nice boobies." is inappropriate.

Otherwise it is all VERY subjective

In Oklahoma we have "Right to Work" which means an employer can fire you for any reason they want and don't even have to tell you why.

My oldest brother the Extraterrestrial Ambassador, is a retired Executive Recruiter. When I tell him of some of the goings on in the workplace he tells me I need to document things to cover my butt. I tell him that if I have to defend my position enough that it requires documented proof, I don't want to work there. Too much stress.

My brother also tells me I need to bring some of the things that go on to upper managements attention. I tell him that they really don't want to know about those things and you are making waves that classify you as a trouble maker even if you are 100% correct and the things you are trying to bring to light would fix problems they are having. Kinda if you aren't specifically asked, don't tell.

100 rounds, setup took some time, then the loading itself went reasonably ok.
missed 3-4 primers, forgot to push down on the downstroke.
and buggered up another 3, did not push down enough.

but all in all, it's starting to work out

Maybe so, but the employee is still eligible to file for unemployment, and an extension on that unemployment. And without documentation and proof, you can't fight that with the fact that they were acting like they were on drugs, and nearly let a truck burn down in the drive without noticing.....

Well, i've always been ready Rick..Bought 1000 rounds of Fiocchi when i bought the gun.
250 rounds went in the strategic reserve.
fired about 600 at the range recouped most of the brass, got about 150 Fiocchi's left.. so had to get going or i'de run out of practice ammo

So now i got 200 new ones i made from old brass.
Gonna make another 200 semiwadcutters next..

Just gotta mark the reloads so i can tell from the brass how many times they have been reloaded..
Though with 45 acp, it shouldn't matter to much, it's a low pressure round, and my reloads aren't that hot either..
The brass should not deform to much and reload many times before wearing out..

If i can shoot plenty without having to buy new ammo every 2 months, i'll be happy.
Save my cash and get me that M1a...
