Awwww ywah, Monday morning and I am heading to the junkyard on company time for R&D parts (we need some high mileage examples of what we intend to use to send out for destructive stress testing.) This is the best job.

The first time I tried rattlecanning a car, I homebuilt a positive-pressure booth using 2x4s, plywood, 3-mil plastic sheeting, a shop-vac, and several filters. It was complicated, ridiculously loud, and in the end, although I had a paintjob with no dust in it, it was also really thin because the air pressure pulled half the paint droplets away before they got to the surfaces I was painting.

This time, to re-clearcoat my girlfriend's car's hood, I'm just gonna do it in the open. Tips?

Feels weird to be blowing $900-1000 on transmissions. One for me, one for the company. I'm used to being on the other side of this equation.

Oh well, it's what we needed (and not an easy one to find) and it looks to be in great shape. And I never, ever would have found one in the you-pull.

Pretty much. IT Manager certificate? Sure, I got one. Years experience being a señior level IT tech? Yup. Do the manager stuff when the manager is out sick or on vacation? Sure do. Try to apply for IT manager positions? LOL NOPE. Apparently I need to find a Senior tech/Manager hybrid position where I do the work of two people for the pay of one, but i'll have those special 7 letters in my title, so it'll "count" as "experience".

Joy.

Garages are not for parking cars in, unless they're projects you have barely touched in a decade. They're for hoarding tools and car parts in.

2 different houses across the alley from me park a single compact car in the center of their garage, and outside of that have like 2 shelves against the wall. meanwhile i'm here parking my forklift completely wrapped around a cable box, and had 5 vehicles parked in the same amount of space. 3 in the garage, 2 on the garage approach, and have to do the 5 key shuffle to work on specific projects.

If i can get the subaru moving under it's own power for a bit, i can wedge that between the cable box and fence, wrap the forklift around that, put the pickup and lincoln in the garage to change break off the plugs on the pickup and a bunch of little stuff on the lincoln, and possibly have room for the bmw on the approach. That would mean i have room for another project out front!

My old postman was a lazy gently caress. Everytime he left a "we missed you" note, someone was home.
What I ended up doing is every time I got the note, I'd call the post office and they'd tell me to come in after a certain time and I would go pick it up.

One time they called him on his route and made him go to my house and hand me the box. Oh the death glare I got...
