You work where I work? How have we not met? Oh that's rt it's because I'm not allowed to leave my work area but everyone else can. The new guy that started in the body shop is already being recruited by the shop behind us and they've never given me a chance even hiring a guy I trained at a previous job damit I'll shut up now frikafrakamudafrkakin BAHHH

 

Stationed on the Forrestal in dry dock in Norfolk until she was ready to sail then a 6 month Med cruise. We relieved the Saratoga on that cruise. Folks don't realize the workings that go on to make a carrier tick. It's amazing. Was ships company in the Guided Missile Div. Easy duty as a second class AO.

 

How long would it take you to sail from Norfolk to the Med.

 

You gotta kill yourself to make any money
don't work don't get paid
Cant get no time off
You take time off then you can't pay the bills
Your tired all the time and can never get enough sleep

 

I'm happy to be this side of Green, and bought my new Sporty Quicksand Apr. 15th, my first Toy!ota Truck! I'm 62 and feel like I'm 32 again with the exception of the aches and pains of a well lived, on the road, partied my ass off, life of a field services tech for a transformer services company. The new Truck makes me want to go home and take my woman for a cruise to anywhere she's ready to be. Happy to be Sporting around in the new Taco-wheels! I'm sure you all like your whip as well! Keep pushin' those wheels, all around the town! Rock ON!

 

Going over we stoped in St. Thomas for a day then passed through the straight of Gibraltor 20 days later. returning home, it was 4 days. Figured the Skipper was horny as hell and wanted to get home for some lovin'.

 

Welcome to the greatest thread on TW! I'm glad to hear your enjoying your truck!

 

Forged in fire. Good show.

 

He did the point A to point B thing on the way back

 

Did my good deed for the month.
Thousands of dollars put in this car.
Still no resolution.
Oil light staying on with key out.
Battery going dead
Relays clicking.

Yeup dropped in my lap.

I hate my job but I'm fuckin good at it.

Had something simular last year.

Found this.


Connector to far gone to repair.

So I rerouted and bypassed the situation.


It has a water leak I believe from a aftermarket windshield which runs water down the wiring into the connector.
So I bypassed and sealed the repair against infiltration.

Then to help the situation I bagged the junction block to reroute the water running down the wireing.

So saved them a couple thousand in wiring harnesses and labor.
So now up to them to fix the cause.

 

What a day!

 

Had to off load all our heavy weapons on the way over before we hit port. almost 2 days of offloading. But we didn't have to wait to fuel in Norfolk. Fortunately we had good weather on the return trip.

 

That's not lookin good.

Our Capt. loved being at sea. some of the crew complained once. He said Sailors belong at Sea if you don't like it what the hell did you join the Navy for? You should have enlisted in the Army. I think we stayed out to sea for an extra two weeks because of them complaining.

 

most importantly NO goat pictures

 

Yep the Wanna Be Doth Raki was a bit much but his blade was far prettier the bend screwed him , I do not get the other guy knowing his blade had a problem day 3 or 4 and instead of fixing it just left it alone . The gold gilt looked umm not so good but since I have never done it I can't speak to weather or not it would hold up under use .
