No idk who MJ is
K. A friend of mine, whom we'll refer to as MJ, works in a similar role there. Was just wondering if we were talking about the same person.

What is LUS? Do you mean the LCG building? I didn't know we ever thought she went towards Azalea.
LaffySleuth, you have just displayed what a valuable Public Safety asset, an aware citizen can be. Whether it turns out to be a worker stealing bldg materials or tools from the site, or something much more sinister.
Thanx for your awareness and willingness to get involved. 'Salute'!

Thank you for your post District11. I have no direct knowledge of the oil industry. The comments about oil workers having no say whatsoever as to their schedules perplexed me but what do I know? I'm not a part of that world so I have no right to or basis for argument.
Here's what I do know. As the long suffering wife :blushing: of a soldier, who in later years had authority over a lot of troops, I know that a soldier who has a special reason or an important event coming up can always ask for leave or a day off. There is a person, who is usually approachable, in charge. Therefore, I find it almost impossible to believe and quite severe to think, that a man with considerable autonomy (owns his own business) could not plan ahead and arrange to have a particular day off ~ the day his son is graduating from high school. Shy of a regional emergency (or in soldiers' cases a global crisis where suddenly whole battalions are alerted to prepare, pack and get ready to deploy), usually humanity allows for reasonable grace when it comes to making allowances for employees to be there for family members, especially when it comes to relatable special days in one's life.
That said, as a military wife, after awhile I caught on that some soldiers did not want their spouses to know that they could always ask and their request would probably be granted. They made the Army their excuse.
Yes, LCG building. LUS, Lafayette utilities system is on the side of city hall.

And it was hypothesized at one point that she may have cut across the employee parking lot of LUS to get to azalea st.
I really appreciate the information you shared. If it's ok for you to post more as you hear it, post away. Wouldn't want you get into trouble though.
yupikgirl, thanks to your husband, you and your family for his service as well.
I have considered this, not short and rich but rich guy. This seems like a very calculated, precise grab and go. Usually with SK's the victim always shows up within a matter of days, usually dead. LA

WOW, imo, having a plate blurrer says something. Maybe not about Mickey but it's hinky, unless, I'm wrong which happens often
Does anyone know why someone would have a plate blurrer?
I wish I had one when the traffic camera caught me making a right-turn on red after a "California stop." i just wrote a check today for $480 + $57 for traffic school. First ticket in my whole life.
License plate covers, etc. are illegal in California. Just sayin'....
LUS is Lafayette utilities and people can pay their bill at this building (the LCG building or city hall) so the names are interchangeable in Lafayette.
Oops meant to quote juju!
But that is not true in the oil business. Certain workers are called in for emergency situations, and there is no way around it. If you want to keep your job, you answer the call.
And I don't know what the big deal is about graduation ceremonies. Not that huge of a deal. Our kids are way more concerned with our own celebrations of their graduations, and of course their presents. The ceremony is hot and crowded and too long and very boring. The kids usually leave immediately afterwards for Senior party anyway. So why the big deal about the dad missing the event? JMO
In my explanation of what I think, I included an out and recognize there are emergency situations when a person must report to work no matter what is going on on the homefront (a fireman on call would be a good example). What's so urgent about the oil industry that it has to ruin peoples' family lives? That's what it sounds like anyway. I know oil is needed, but it's all about those at the top making big bucks and manipulating society (and their employees I guess) - it's not the sun they're trying to keep up in the sky here.
The ceremony is a form of passage. That's what most ceremonies are. It's my opinion that a son would like his father's attention on that special day. I'm a daughter and appreciate that my dad chose to be at my graduation ceremony many years ago. He wanted me to feel special and recognized that I had finished the race, that I had accomplished something.
It's hard for me to believe you asked that question. jimo
