1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Friends with benefits?

 

BMW is there, along with a ton of other manufacturing jobs. I want to build/program industrial robotics and automated equipment and theres is a lot of it there. Also, the downtown is gorgeous.

Not too far from Charlotte or Clemson for entertainment, beach is a 2.5 hr drive, and the mountains are visible from downtown.

 

Looks like a great place. I bet the big auto plants there are plugged into the TVA like the ones in AL, TN, and GA.

 

I'm not gonna say a whole lot, but we'd all be disappointed. With what I had learned and experienced with manufacturing and buying and stuff and then him filling me in more on the why the whole '555 part in an AC Delco box'(that's just an example, not bad or good) happens, or the OEM Koyo bearing ends up sold in a Spicer box and label, etc, the big picture became pretty darn clear. There is definitely value and wisdom to staying with OEM branded parts or parts manufactured by the OEM part manufacturer.

 

Yep.. I like to buy OEM Denso parts, especially when they come in an Intermotor box.

Woke up with a fever and a migraine and have spent whole day in bed wishing for death.

 

Aw yes, man flu

 

Half a bottle of whiskey should fix that

 

If you were a normal man youd be dead already right?

 

Take some zinc tablets...like Zicam or similar. Helps boost your immune system to beat the virus

That and a bunch of sudafed helped me a couple weeks ago
