You're too good at your job

 

I honestly wouldn't mind if the owner charged for my labor accordingly.. the last one I fixed got dropped off with the understanding I would only work on it in between building new products. The repair took 56hrs of labor however that was spread out over a calender year




Boss man only charged for 20hrs of labor because "it sat here for so long" bitch, that was YOUR decision to not let me fix it sooner!

 

*waiting for that outside consultant position

 

Geezer here! 5th grade for me. The teacher wasn't about to turn the TV off.

Columbia was horrifying. You can't help but put yourself in that cockpit.

 

Don't worry, when I break off and start my own company, you'll get that consulting job

 

Wait, that’s not how you do it? Fuck, no wonder I’m going bald so much faster!

 

Lol.

 

Those exposed socks/ankles just gave me anxiety

Sparks and slag flying into shoes and shit

 

Digital angle gauges are the shit. Shoulda bought one waaaaay earlier than I did. Frame is looking good!

 

I don't think this oil filter has been changed since @Sperrunner was born

 

Lol. Had pants pulled up a bit to cool down. I usually weld in my flips if not grinding.

Def nice. Me and the angle finder had a little disagreement today. I had to bench her for makin bad calls! That’s a brand new one.

 

@Yota X

Up to 4 angle grinders now

Couldn't let this deal pass up for only $143 from HD; Fuel grinder and 5.0 battery.

I'll most likely sell the battery as I have too many 5.0's

 

Have you and @Sperrunner had any Milwaukee batteries go bad? I have 1 makita battery that won’t charge and the only way to get it replaced is to take it to a makita service center 250 miles away. Curious if Milwaukee is better in that regard

 

Myself no, and I'm already past the 3 year mark on maybe 2-3 batteries. The rest are between less than a year to 1 1/2 years old and that includes several 5.0 and HO 3.0 batteries.

I know one guy got his replaced under warranty in the Milwaukee thread recrntly and the process was fast and painless.

 

Yeah most of mine are fine, but one just quit charging early in life.

sigh. Vendor lock in is stupid

 

When you bought Makita you took a vow sir...until death do you part... how dare you call your vows into question

First link is when he mentioned his battery failed, prematurely (yet his older ones kept working).

Second link is when he got the new one, all with no cost to him.

Everything was done via shipping.

 

I have been wondering where my soul went…really been struggling with automatic doors.

 

Thanks! I wonder if makita will ship
