A buddy of mine does that...paragliding?

 

Paramotor or powered paraglider.

 

Well, company just gave me the bad news.

Got me all set up to help with unemployment and have promised references and referrals to other places.

It's nice working for a smaller company, the owners themselves gave us the dismissal and I'll be front of the line to get rehired when work picks up.

 

Damn that sucks man. What industry?

 

Commerical Contractor. Our main three customer industries were:

Airport Shops and Restaurants
Hotels
Restaurants

The writing was on the wall back in March, honestly surprised it took this long.

 

Good on your company for retaining you as long as possible. Mine cut me in early April, and then told DES I was still employed which made me have to appeal and get my delayed payment. Assholes...

File online, it's still a mess, and don't try calling. If you have issues, just refile.

 

Yeah my company was thankfully (sorry to hear about you) the complete opposite. The secretary had everything ready to go and was willing to help us and is still willing to help us with anything we might need. Even mentioned one of our subs is swamped with work and needing people and said they would refer us.

 

Man, I'm sorry to hear this. I hope you find something new quickly.

 

It was awesome. Wife and I went for her 30th. What a rush. We want to go again.

 

Fun project at work the last few days. 24" x 24" 304 Stainless plate. I hand brushed it in a few stages, programmed and machined the features, masked off and sand blasted, then one final brush finish. Going in a Country Club floor in Texas.

 

Anyone have suggestions on a shop to get a Tundra bed pray lined ?

 

I dunno. My uncle is kinda religious and he owns Fly-n-Hi Total Performance. He might be able to get his Church to help you.

 

Lol . dang autocorrect!

 

Fly-n-Hi.. damn. Haven't heard that name in years.

 

Still around. They were even on Garage Rehab a year or so ago.

Not terribly fond of how my uncle handles customers, though, so I don't always feel fond of referring them.

Definitely an option if you wanna get an Ultra4 rig for King of the Hammers. They send a lot of rigs out there every year.

 

they were the shit back in the day. I remember wearing my grandpa's old worn out Fly n Hi t-shirts as a kid. lol

 

Well the owner before my uncle really drove the place into the ground, and then he's done an admirable job of trying to get the place going again.

He's a great guy, and I really need to buy more parts from him, but it gets annoying walking in there and asking for something and then being steered away to something else.

 

I know what you mean... My uncle who is a regional manager for American Tire Distributors.. is the same way. I ask him for pricing on the tires I want or am interested in, and he has to put his 2 cents in every time and tries to sell me on some other brand. I cant take his recommendations to heart when he drives a massive pavement princess... that the most action it see's, is pulling a toy hauler to Glamis.. lol

 

I’m in a love hate relationship with the decked. While it’s function is good. The execution of it kills me. The drawers sides aren’t vertical and I see lots of wasted space.
Plus my truck needs to go on a diet. Might pull it and sell it.
Then build something custom. Kinda miss the bed rug and just sleeping back there under the soft topper.

 

They're a great off the shelf product but I totally see how I'd hate it. If someone has the ability to DIY it, I figure that would always be the better route over buying.
