Morning all. Happy Wednesday....

 

Morning all

Saw that pic the other day, pretty funny!

 

Morning... Gotta head to the airport @ 545 today to pickup my friend... I hate her for landing during rush hour....

 

Tell her next time she needs to take a red-eye instead, lol.

 

Morning ! Weather seems decent today and I got the day off migh have to do some fishing or something.

 

GFY

 

I like having weekends off, but having a weekday off in the mix would be a game changer. Feel like you can do so much shit cause everyone else is working

 

So I'm trying to figure out a airing up solution since my current one is awful. Anyone have any suggestions on a pump?

 

I'd love to have my dad's deal if I was single, honestly. Works a 12 hour day Friday, Saturday, & Sunday. Gets paid for 40, gets 4 days off Monday-Thursday.
But the GF has weekends off so I hunted high and low for a job that would accomodate that, otherwise I just wasn't seeing her.

 

Yeah that'd be a nice setup if single. My Mother's work scheduled is 4 week rotation but she works 4 10hr days with 3 days off a week (she has to work 1 weekend a month)

 

Secret to a happy union..never see each other haha

 

I run the ViAir 88P Air compressor:

$77 VIAIR 88P - 00088 Tire Inflator Portable On/Offroad Air Compressor for Car, Truck, SUV & RV | 12V Heavy Duty Pump 120 PSI, Alligator Clip, Twist Chuck

Love it and it runs off the battery directly which I prefer since I can plug it in any car I want. I also don't like cig lighter powered units. I just keep it in the truck at all times inside this bag:

$23 RIDGID 902048009 Contractor Tool Bag 13.5 x 9.5 x 4.5 In. Fits X4 Impact Driver, Charger and Batteries

No need for the extension hose btw.. I bought it and the pump itself is more than I'll ever need. I can go from the battery, around the front all the way to the passengerside rear tire without having to run it under the truck. Its not the fastest but it pumped each of my tires from 20-35 in about 5-6 minutes each side.

 

I saw that Viair has a lot of different pumps, I also saw a kit with the 400p that came with a set and go deflator, 25ft hose, bag, etc.

 

When I worked retail managing a ski and bike shop I would have only weekdays off. It was awesome. But every single weekend and holiday I'd be working. On those weekdays off though, skiing was awesome- no lines, no waiting!

 

I've been promoted to EngineerII hopefully the two raises my manager puts in for get approved so I can buy more truck parts! Now if only the manager and president could agree on what we want for products I could design stuff how it should be.....

 

Nice congrats! What company do you work for and are they hiring? haha jk

 

I've got the same one. It works great. Not the fastest, but decent and has the best duty cycle for all the sub $100 compressors

 

Right when I graduated, I ended up at a job where I works a lot of weekends. It was great for the same reason you stated - everything was easy to do on the weekdays. The only problem was when all my buddies and such had cookouts and parties, it was on the weekend and I could never go.

 

This guy is clever
