    I'm sure we've all done it but not frequently..and for god's sake if you must make sure it's believable that you are ill.

    In my unit we have someone who is on FMLA for anxiety. While I don't dismiss it wholly, this person is known for being a lazy do nothing to the point of being a liar and a sneak. Hasn't worked a full week in over a year. That is one thing but when she is working she does about 30% of the expectations at best.

    What really incenses me is she somehow always seems to get chosen to do development/job shadow type stuff, which I've applied for 6 times in the past few years and am 0 for 6. I'm well over 100% of expectations and had perfect quality scores last year, plus trained a few people on stuff we needed more people on. Go figure. Methinks it is the FFA thing..Friends, Family, Ass-kissers

    Ok so if everything is the correct and set the same. I would recommend switching out your stuts. I mean just take them out and put them on the other side. Your passenger side is high right? Your battery and gas tank are still on the drivers side just like the Tacos right? Then just switch the drivers side and passenger side stuts and see where that gets you.

    Didn't you have alignment problems too?

    I hope there isn't more to it than that but if there is left me know

    I have to ask, why do all your cannonballs have to be naked? :puke:

    My old trick was Mountain dew and chain smoking on the morning drive. I will admit to a little hair of the dog now and then as well..kept a huge bottle under the seat.

    Never tried those but I sometimes take a fat burner and holy shit it will hit me good. Mr Hyde was the most intense supp I've tried, 400mg caffeine per scoop

    I used to sleep in my car in the parking lot... My boss would tap on my window on his way in, do the old quick freshen up and go to work....... Luckily my job required no interaction with anyone back then....

    While they're down there I'll probably have them throw in the extended brake lines, but most likely I will do it all.

    Yup all the weights on the drivers side. Good idea swapping coilovers, I'll give that a go sometime hopefully soon.

    Ya they claimed they couldn't get the wheel straight. Sits at a 45 deg angle going straight. I call shenanigans and lazyness. It aligned just fine otherwise.

    2nd gens have 2 rear brake line to extend correct? My 1st gen was really easy, just 1 line and after spraying with pb blaster for a month the old one came right off. Just make sure you have a flare wrench.

    My drinking and hangover days are long gone. Don't get me wrong ,didn't give up drinking, but a time and place for it and not much at that.
    A CDL and 33 years at my job with light at the end of the tunnel coming up quick, it's not the time to blow it.

    I shot darts with a guy who had a CDL. Drove him every week bc he wouldn't even have one drink if he had to drive. Even at that he limited his intake to 2 beverages.

    I always wanted a motorcycle, but I'd want a fast sport bike. I never mastered pedal power, I'd legit be dead. Not from speed, from falling off at 15 MPH and getting run over by it.
