New England B.S. Thread

4 interviews set up for a grounds keeper position we are hiring for and 1 showed up ! Starting position that pays rather low but it's a county job and I'm trying to get a few young guys in the system. No call no show. Baffles me. Wasted day on paper work for some red neck fucks

 

Hey Eric, Dennis, Johnny, wuuz up gentleman? Eric any luck with the rig?
If ya need a hand let me know.

 

It's sitting on the trailer in my front yard. It will be a while before I can even look at it. I am pretty sure it's either the pinion is broken or the locker pin is sheared.

 

Well, I can turn the hell out of a wrench and even if its you and your daughter I don't mind ripping it the third to help you find your needed fix. My runner has sat for awhile but I'm at a point I need to outsource my own help with the welding. So I have nights and some time on weekends if you want to pick a date. Again don't hesitate to ask if you choose

 

Tgif

 

Oh shit....it is!
How's the new place?

 

I will let you know. I just don't have the free time.

 

Shit man I'm pooped... Need more sleep!

 

Lol, every day is Friday for you at this point!

 

shhhhhh.....

 

Gentlemen, project overland just took a big step forward...

I now have the AP back rack system and a CVT to put on it.

 

He said right before there were 10 more posts, lol.

I haven't been on as much lately. Been really busy at work because everybody's taking their vacations and calling out 'sick' on really nice days (and then coming in sunburned the next day)
One girl even said that her grandmother got mugged in MA, was in the hospital in a coma, and might not make it. She took off for 3 days, and then posted photos of herself spending those days camping on FB.

And then on the weekends I've been doing a LOT of firewood; My supply for next year, my parent's supply for next year (since my dad can't run a saw yet), and the supply for the Sugarhouse. I put up 5 cord for myself every year, my parents burn through around 6-7, and the Sugarhouse will run through 5 cord in about 2 months of boiling. Fortunately, my parents have a woodsplitter, so at least I'm not doing those cords by hand (just mine, lol)

 

Whoa... lucky!!

 

That chick needs to be fired! Some people are sleezy.

How is your dad's recovery going anyways? Hopefully he's doing well!

 

I think I might have gotten her written up, at least. She left the campground map on her desk with the dates circled, so I gave it to my boss and showed him the camping pictures on my phone.
Finally a good use for a smartyphone!!

He's recovering well, but they had to stretch the skin on his arm to stitch it back together. So until it finishes healing it's tight if he moves it around a lot, and he says that vibration still really bothers it. Even mowing the lawn bothers it, he says. But he's got almost his full strength back in it, and full range of motion. And the sensitivity to vibration has started improving, it's just not gone yet.
So he got really lucky. He's in the lead for our unofficial 'most stitches' contest again, though.

 

At least the humidity blew out...for now.

 

Nada working all weekend

 

White Overland Tacoma with Mass. plates towing a trailer.
Spotted in the wild west. Anyone from here or know who it is?

 

Is it a 1st geb dcab? If so I've seen it around

 

Think it is 2nd but could be wrong. Is a sport with scoop and sport wheels. That is about all the stock left though, hahaha.
Really done nicely.
