    So you need to do an emission test? That's weird that its been so many miles since the last clear. Yeah even here the totaled ones are bought in what seems like a few days

    I forgot you have a bad one. That could be a mpg factor right there. After a new cat and fuel injector cleaner I can get 18mpg city but usually 17

    I'm just tired of throwing money at stuff haha. I'd finally saved up enough for a lift and I don't even think I'm gonna be able to get it cause problems keep poppin up. The emissions code, the driveline vibration, alignment problems. I need to just sell the damn truck lol

    Hmmm yeah I'd hold of on the lift for a while. What's the alignment problem? Keep the yota! Once you clean all that up it'll be good for a while haha

    I might just get some suspension off rockauto, just have to decide what haha. An my alignment seems to be off ever since I got the new tires. I had my alignment done but it didn't really help. Oh and I forgot to mention getting valve tick, seems like my valve shims are gonna need to be replaced soon

    You could always just formally resign or quit. That way Even of they look at previous employment it looks fine

    Well I think they are gonna call an check up on me. There's no management here at all at the moment. It falls on me to become the manager, and I don't get paid enough haha. I have nobody who knows electrical or plumbing very well at the moment, and we're down 2 people today. It's BS, and I think I'm done. Gonna miss my $10/hr paychecks, but maybe there's something better
