Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Haha. Funny guys.

None......

 

I had the same problem ended up some bad make up in a j- box before you buy a new dryer test the plug with a volt meter.
Edit: this also caused overheating of the breaker and caused it to fail. at least my house didn't burn down. dam the non electrician that did the work before me.
they extended the run during a remolded before I bought the house and went from #10 to #12 and back to # 10s under the house.

 

well, now my jelly filled donut on my desk is no longer appealing.

 

Doughnut after a workout. Shame on you

 

One issue we just ran into that made me internally rage. Who am i kidding, i bitched like a damn whiny teenager after a few Zimas.

One of our high apprentices whose about to turn Journeyman had a week long class scheduled two weeks ago. Summer is our absolute insane time for work, they wanted him to not work and come to class. We requested an extension and they denied. We requested another extension and made a few phone calls explaining the situation and how they should understand. Hes not trying to skip on the class because it will make him a Journeyman, its just not a good time right now. The union came in the next day and threatened to remove that person from the union completely if he does not go to the class....

You have someone who has spent 5 years working their ass off, up to date on union dues and is a real good employee on our end and a great talented installer. You want to throw him out of the union because you scheduled him during the busiest time of the season and we requested an extension? This is whats wrong with the union.

 

HR lady brought them in, i cant deny a free donut.

 

You have to admit though, it's been very respectful and low key. I applaud all for that. And it's not really political when you think about it. Guys gotta work. Guys are gonna bitch about work. We all gotta work to pay for the taco toys. Not arguing, just sayin'...

You're the boss. Damn it. That sounds like work again.


Break break


Tonight I attack the extended brake lines. Diff and t case oil changes and reinstall skids. If time permits, I'll install proper sized bolts in the rear shocks lower eye. Damn, that sounds like a lot of work for lil ol me. Good thing the wifey will help on occasion. At least with bleeding the brakes.

 

This kind of thing is true for many industries. For the last three summers, there have been recalls. Big ones. Summer is also our busiest time and warranty doesn't pay either. Or the time required for mandatory classes that are only offered…during the summer.

 

So back to Tacomas.

I need my truck aligned. I went to Goodyear as was suggested here...my truck is too wide for their rack.

Any other places?

 

I just had a good experience with Les Schwab getting a front end alignment.

 

First world problems

 

Right! How does my job think its ok to ask me to shave my beard.

Fuck work.


Sorry jberry. Rant over...lol

 

Shave it for a fee

 

I have to because oil fires suck and I'd rather be alive getting a proper seal on my face mask than be dead.

 

Read this and thought of no one in particular.



@Fernando

 

Yeah but where's the fun in going slow?

 

Yep that's the one.

 

Around 10" wider than stock in the front.

 

careful bro, the rock warriors will clapback.
