    You got to give your co-workers some credit for something.

    If they weren't so lazy you may not have a job. :D

    If I did that I’d be in quarantine for 14 days regardless if it was because of the shot or not.

    That's beside the point.

    At Toyota, there techs that forget to put on the oil filter before they start up the car to check for leaks.

    Now they have a a lot bigger mess to clean up. Since I was the new person at that time I had to clean it up.

    Do you have those big white squares to clean fluids off the floor? I call them tampons.

    That mess they was no tampons so I had to use kitty litter.

    Clean oil off the car, all over the lift. What a mess.

    One tech told me that It's good he's retiring in a few months.

    We have two types of pads.
    One picks up everything. One picks up oil based stuff only.
    Pretty cool.
    Your bay is wet. You drop the white ones down and pick it up and the oil comes with it
    And leaves the water..

    They could have 2 types of pads but I only seen one. That place is too cheap. They won't even buy us new uniforms.

    The white one did a good job at absorbing the oil but never tried it with oil and water together. Manager wants the oil cleaned up first then go over it with a degreaser. Then squeegee the water into the drain.

    How's it been? Busy week over here. New tires on the corolla, went with the Goodyear eagle RSA's. A bit pricey but I'm impressed by the ride and handling so far. Had a nice scare earlier in the week with my first ever allergic reaction (to a prescription no less) that put me in the ER overnight. Now I get to carry around this colorful stick with a needle in it!

    Yep, heading in for another lesson this afternoon. Solo written testing done, been doing start ups and taxiing by myself and doing radio, takeoffs, and most landings unassisted (when its not super windy) so should be soloing soon. :eek:
