Getting Public Safety alerts for Craig, CO this morning



Get your shit together Craig

 

That's a cute town in the middle of nowhere, what the hell kinda safety issue do they have. Escaped cow on the loose?

 

Something escaped from the taxidermist

 

NOPE, Chuck Testa

 

Water pump failed-Water department

 

Guess they're back to drinking from the creek and dying of dysentery.

 

Wow

I wonder if that's the early or late 5sfe

Different sensors on the 97 and up batch fire vs 96-97 vs the 95 and below

 

Oh no

 

That's an excellent question, in that list they had distinction between the wasted spark, direct fire, and distributor 1FZ-FE in terms of trigger and ignition equip so they know some yotas are different with the same engine... Obviously you can set it all up however you want in the end the presets are just there to help.


Says it is on cam, so they're using a later dizzy model I suspect given the number of teeth.

 

I've heard that companies are practically begging to hire right now, and living in TX there are plenty of places within an hour that do any kind of work imaginable. How long have you been with your company to end up 4 on 3 off?

 

I spoke with Marlin yesterday and he said that it was one of their original semi sealed boots.. just going to replace both uppers ball joints and go to the completely sealed.. having to constantly grease

 

I started at 4/3, but I’m an engineering intern at a production company so it’s a bit different.

most office people are on 4/3, so leads and foreman, safety people.

operators are 7/7

I’d try and find a safety job if I were you

 

@treyus30

That stone I was talking about; they're prepping stuff before install while I'm in class

 

Oh no. What have I done. Coworkers are asking me questions about Python.

time to switch languages I guess

 

I would if I could! Only thing is I'm pretty young and all my experience is in IT/Network stuff, I did metal building construction the summer before my senior year of HS where I was the designated steel walker/monkey and did everything else but weld. I'm just trying to get in wherever I can and start making better money. I got about 3 semesters into a mech engineering degree right after HS so I'm hoping I can make enough in the field to afford the rest of my degree and maybe even apply it to oilfield at that point.

 

There’s plenty of network and IT stuff out there too

Anywheres a start though, I did 1 summer of working on a workover rig to pay for a year of school.

 

What did you go to school for? Mechanical, Petroleum, Chemical, ...?

 

Environmental

 

Just learned about scalloping today lol

Coilovers are new from 2019, could probably use a rebuild though. Also read it could happen from being out of balance. Been over inflating on longer drives lately (35-36 psi) for the gas mileage but clearly it's negatively affecting the tires. Also been super lazy and done highway stretches (40 mins or more) aired down at 14 psi occasionally too Also might have rotated these tires once maybe since installed (40k miles).

Clearly I have not been kind to these tires but I might actually rotate the shit now.
