    I just think it's so stupid. I mean, it makes absolutely no sense to me at all. My takeaway from the company emails, and hearsay is that upper management just can't trust people. Yea, they may try to sell that BS in other ways but that's the entire jist of it. They spout BS like "we are stronger when we are together", "our clients want us to be back in the office" "other bla bla bla bullshit".

    It just makes no fucking sense to me to waste two, and most of the time three hours of my day driving, just to sit in a cube. All this tells me is that no matter how much good you do for over 28 years I am still not able to be trusted. What am I, fucking four years old?

    For someone like me that absolutely detests work to begin with, it's hard not to just quit and tell them to go fuck off.

    That fireball gun sounds awesome. I'm honestly very jealous of her that she gets to light forests on fire legally.

    She's still working on her environmental degree at Oregon State online but has been getting offers for places she applies. She's very interested/excited to take the offer at Blackwater Falls and will be able to take her pup with her to work when she has to stay over night in a cabin.

    Since I go into work everyday, someone has been watching the pup Ranger while she been in Florida and I miss both of them.

    Awwww, I really dig hearing how you miss them. That goes a long way with me. I am huge on relationships, fidelity, and Love in general. Good for you two! I can't wait to see your little Two Stick Trick running around!

    Yea, the launcher is a cool toy but I tend to stay far away from toys like these. I am dangerous enough rubbing sticks together. But here you go:

    That's awesome she is virtually limitless on prospects. Her company vehicles are going to be so cool!

    Shit I missed his BD! Tell Niles @Minimag95 Happy Belated Birthday for me.

    Damn that's some serious glamping to have a butler! That would be a wild job though! I could do that, but would prefer to be the camp cook. My shoe shining days are way over.

    12 more than fun allows :annoyed: It really makes me wonder how drilling the back yard posts are going to go. There are some seriously shale covered areas of woods behind me so I hope they dug it all out for the house excavation. I am definitely using T posts for any runs I can out back. I should be able to eliminate needing to drill about 20 - 25 wood posts.
    :fingerscrossed:

    Hey everyone! Darn she got a bit nipply last night.. I had to grab the thick quilt along with a wool cap to get warm. I'm not ready to run the worthless heat pump and I'm sure not ready to bring the woodstove back on line yet, but after seeing the weather forecast for the upcoming low temps, my attitude might change quickly!

    I've decided to sell the Tepui RTT. I've had it for a few years and just recently tried it at Daves cabin. It worked fine and seems to be in good overall condition, it just isn't for me plus the Taco is going away soon. I'd rather just use the sleeping platform in the back of the 4runner. The biggest "issue" that I saw with the RTT was that the travel cover ( the waterproof grey cover that zips up like an envelope around the RTT ) had a few small rub-throughs/abrasions that I had to cover with Tenacious Tape. It's fully functional but if you're the type that needs visual 'perfection' then a new travel cover from Thule will be required. The new covers are black in color and branded Thule, instead of grey w/ Tepui because Tepui is owned by Thule now ( about 2 years ago, from what I've learned.)

    Anyway, its the kukenam 3 tent that was sold through REI. I don't know how 3 peoples could fit inside of it, I think that 2 humans would get very cozy very quickly. I didn't see any tears in any of the fabric or the rain fly, all of the bows are present and in good condition. There was 1 rainfly flap "retainer" that was missing from one of the window flaps, I didn't have issues once I rolled up the flaps and used the Velcro straps to keep everything open. I have 3 sets of mounting hardware, I had misplaced the bag of hardware and ordered a new kit from Thule. Once I got the new hardware I loaded the tent and opened it up for it to air out and promptly found the missing hardware.. ( after I looked inside of the tent at least 2 times. Go figure..). I am also including the Cali-Raised zero rise bed bars that fit 2nd and 3rd gen Tacos. The zero rise bars keeps the profile of the tent below the top of the cab, which also helps keep the center of gravity lower on the truck ( the tent doesn't have the adverse handling effects that the high rise bars will have on the truck) plus the bars double as a solid mounting platform for carrying wide things that won't fit in the bed between the wheel wells.

    I'm putting it up in our regional forum 1st because it will be so much easier to sell locally. The tent is in my basement, I will drag it into the back yard and open it up for a buyer before purchasing.


    $800 for the tent and mounting hardware and the bed bars.

    Not the best pic, but this shows how low the profile is of the tent behind the cab. I really don't even feel it back there, and the short height is nice for climbing up the ladder to get inside.
