Cincinnati Area Thread (Tri-State, Ohio/Kentucky/Indiana)

Still debating if I wanna go management later in my career. They get free cars but I'm not the best at being sensitive to the needs of others.

 

Sounds like the ideal vehicle to take to LBL. Lol

 

Late the the party.

Have you looked at the local hackerspace (hive 13)? They have access to a lot of interesting tools and the dues are fairly reasonable. You wouldn't be able to pull a tuck in, but if you are interested in some of the other things that they do (welding, wood working, cnc machines, etc) then it is a space to look at.

You can show up to the Tuesday meetings and see what the place is all about and figure out if it would be something you would want to buy into. You can also find out if you will be able to get along with the people there as well.

I checked it out once, and they do have access to some tools that I would really like to work with (CNC machine, laser cutter, welding room and some lathes), but I can't seem to find the time to make it to the meetings or to trek over there regularly.

 

Well, they get free Hondas, a ridgeline wouldn't be much more capable offroad than my XR is lol.

 

My other truck is a 2008 Ridgeline. Great for what it is, roomy, but agreed, not capable. There is no aftermarket off road parts for it either which drove me nuts.

 

After wheeling with the Titan at Black Mountain, I'd believe anything.

 

@Jibbs invited me to the party from another thread so I'll introduce myself. I love just north of Kings Island in Lebanon. I joined a few months ago after I bought a new '17 SR5 AC. I used to have a '03 SR5 extended cab until some girl thought that texting instead of driving was a good idea and totaled it (along with my popup camper) without insurance. I enjoy TW a lot and don't know how I didn't join earlier. Anyhew, thanks for the invite.

 

Welcome

Where do you hate?

 

Welcome aboard.

Myself and @mwc273 are basically neighbors in the Colerain area, @presta24 is in Reading, we have a few in Forest Park, and some others that I just don't know.

This thread is also frequented by a couple Columbus guys, some Indiana, and some yayhoos from kentucky.

Speaking of Forest Park, @Lt_Dan was that you checking out my sexy ass end going down 4 the other day? If not I waved at some random taco owner lol

 

Yes ma'am

 

Maybe just south of Kings Island

 

It's not that sexy

 

Grew up in springboro. Our mailing Addy was\is actually Lebanon. Where you at? I grew up on w. Pekin. Between 48 and 741

 

Stubbs Mill rd.

 

Honda was the worst job I've ever had. They can keep the car and the money. I'd rather enjoy what I do!

 

Good to have another Buckeye 3rd genner.. Welcome.

Anyway. Hoosier who lives in Kentucky.

Usually an active bunch here....Sorta in the off season now, but things are about to ramp up.

 

I enjoy what I do so that's not an issue for me. What'd you do?

 

I enjoy what I do now, but it would have to be extra special nice to get me over to salary and in a company car. I'd rather they just take over payments on my truck, but I'll take care of the maintenance and etc, with about $15k more total in my pocket.
I have not gotten a raise so far

 

Just come work with me. Salary and paid overtime.

And I get a referral bonus

 

Pass.

It was discussed that we're starting an "on call" thing for weekends. Will be paid for those days, then increased if I actually have to come into work/answer my cell on the weekend.
My boss knows where I stand. Rather have the money over the company car. I don't want no damn GMC Canyon or Sierra!
