    Before or after all that rain! Might need to hitch a ride to work if you guys are going in. :rain::rain:


    Got a call back from Jiminy today, will be testing out the repair/rental shop this year. Will do a couple night shifts a week, this allows me to clear our areas of snow in the morning for air bnb, MIL and the wife. I will also not be outside for 8 hours on the bad days :D and still get my free passes.

    Wouldnt want to work in the rental shop, but repairs is ok. I used to spend a bunch of time in there mounting skis i old, or fixing issues.

    I applied for repair, I too don't relish the idea of rental. The guy who called is in charge of both though so not sure of their plans for me. I figure it will teach me all about skis, and give me the tools going forward to buy ones that work best for me, and know how to keep them in top shape.

    If it sucks, well it's only a few months :anonymous:

    Is it still a Brian R? I was friends with him.

    The repair shop there is kinda limited in its capabilities but not bad. To many high school kids in the rental side for me.

    The guy who called was named Pat, I might even know him from last year just not recognize the name, but would his face.

    He WAS the assistant manager, but may have taken over.

    Sounds like he has. Well he’s my new boss! Hard to follow an act like Billy but I’ll give him a shot!

    Billy is great.

    As a outside contractor I only had to answer to Malony, and Fairbank, but there were many great people there, and some horrible ones as well.

    Truck is home!! :woot:
    Talked with the guy that did the work. He said my truck was his third Tacoma roof replacement that he has done this month...and he has another to do next week.
    Crazy!!

    They even washed and detailed it!!:eek:

    I have some work to do to get things back where they need to go. They got close. :anonymous:

    Tree branch did some good damage to it. That storm about a month ago.

    They did a great job. They put everything back where I had it.
    Pretty sure the entire thing was ripped apart, inside and out.

    The guy asked, "did you do all the work to it, or did you buy it with the work done to it?"
    hahahah
    It sounds like they were playing "where's waldo" with it, finding different things I have done to it. :laughing:

    Would highly recommend them to anyone needing serious AB work.
