Alabama thread!

My brother in law is the event's manager at the BJCC and the hotel, just got sent home for 3 months. My stepdaughter was a managers of a big day care, she dont know when she will work again and has 4 kids.

If you ever need help I will do all I can

 

A lot of people living week to week dont have a plan b. They will affect everyone if things dont get better.

 

Be thankful you can still go to work

 

I have psoriatic arthritis that I have to take immunosuppressants for. I have stopped taking them and I hope my immune system builds back up quick. When I started taking them I couldn't walk up steps without help and standing up from a chair was very difficult. I hope this is over and I can get back on my medication before I get back to that point. They are a lot of people that are having to make a lot of life changing decisions right now.

Just pray for everyone

 

We’re still working for now but there’s a ton of controversy both from employee and employer. Employer wants to keep working for our benefit, not theirs despite what people may believe. Without a job life gets tough quick for a lot of people. Then there’s the employee side wanting to work yet also wondering why we’re still working if this is as serious as they say.

All in all nobody here knows anyone with the virus whether it be friend or family member. That’s one good thing anyway to know that nobody is affected by it at this point within our organization or any of their family members. That’s not to say it can’t happen tomorrow.

I personally have a hard time taking the virus pandemic serious due to the fact that nobody around me has it nor does any friends or family of anyone I know. I fear the long term issues that will stem from this issue for years to come and hopefully everyone makes it through just fine and it’s all just a scare rather than an extremely serious world changing event. Heck more people are lost each year to cancer or tb than this virus has claimed but it’s new so there’s still the unknown factor of what could be.

All in all I’m thankful for being in good health with a steady job still and so far no added worries other than who’s going to call in to work the next day.

 

Alright yall just got the Victory 4x4 Rack installed and its super nice for the price point (w/ tax sale discount). I have seen where people cut the weather stripping in three different pieces to fit around the brackets but i decided to notch it out to keep it all one piece. It holds in place fine going down the interstate but the middle section is a little flimsy. Thinking of ideas to help secure it better like 3m double sided tape, silicone, etc.

TIP : You get a long piece of stripping to go on the underside of the front fairing, and you will have a little extra piece left over. Use it on the underside of the rear fairing thing. Look closely and you can see the piece right above the third brake light.

 

I sure hope not. I’ve never been more appreciative of what I have!

 

Nice rack!

 

I have been leaning towards the Sherpa rack (formally Rocky Mountain Racks) when the time comes. Going to be having to haul around kayaks soon, and that’s the best idea I have for securing them.

 

Never heard of them before. Simmilar to all the others?

 

Lol this is me next month

 

Very similar in look, but the way they mount is a little different.

not saying it’s better than any of the others necessarily though. Might just sit a little lower on the roof if anything.

 

Her rheumatologist strongly advised against discontinuing her medication.

 

Man thats aweful, i hope all comes out okay for them. Prayers coming there way bud. I appreciate that bud, but you just stay in good health bud. We will do what we need to survive. Ive got plenty of food that walks across my feild everyday.

 

Everyone should be safe. Everyone should wash your hands!

But, I just want to run some numbers by you all.

Stay safe and healthy my freind.

 

Thanks buddy. I got my Dad setup on Grubhub at lunch because he was wanting some fried oysters. They will leave it on a table we put at the front door. He can go out and get it after they leave. I took the pup out and ate my lunch on my tailgate. It'll work out in the end I just wish some employers weren't so boneheaded.

 

Me too

 

My rheumatologist did too

 

The death rate is not a concern to me right now it's all the unemployed families that worries me. They can get unemployment benefits but for a big family that's not much.
