Roof work continues with a lot of really loud banging. Anxiety is through the roof and I legit feel like a 2 ton AC unit is going to crash down and splatter me. Neat-o.

Since being a auto shop managaer/co owner is kinda new to me and i actually love it i had written the op for a new thread. then i managed to close the tab in chrome.... i followed drpains path today tho, and fired a customer. We only have about 10% of our revenue from working on peoples cars, the rest is buses and trucks. (80%, probably more is revenue from the bus company that used to own us, and that we have a standing contract for the buses in this part of the city) however, this guy came in with a 97 golf for a biannual inspection. i pointed out one of my techs, the one who does most inspections and told the dude to just leave the car with him. the guy then managed to straight up tell me and the tech that "he did not want a black guy to touch his car" i told him to get the gently caress out of the shop, and to never return. one of my other techs sprayed his shoes with a hose as he passed by. I have to days of now, i only work about 60% these days, and i have my first ever radiation treatment on thursday. But my doctor told me monday that my prognosis is up to 85% chance of survival, so i probably should not complain.

And well done on chasing that racist rear end in a top hat out of your shop. I had to unfollow a couple mechanics groups because of the sheer amount of racist poo poo they post.

some texas redneck posted:I haven't had anything crazy happen since I worked at Papa John's. I spent most of my time at PJ's in management and I did not get to take tons of deliveries while working there. While working there I did deliver to what would be best described as a porn set. The only person there was a woman who was in her mid 50's and had nude pictures of her on a desk and the desk being the only thing in the room that was normalish about the 'office.' I imagine if I was older at the time she might have been somewhat attractive, but getting hit on by someone older than my mother in what could be best describe as an adult workout zone set the bar for odd deliver experiences pretty high after that.

Doesn't mean they mess around with prices but welp. Prices are hosed because airline ticketing software is dumb. Matrix ITA just aggregates stuff. If I was on a specific carrier's website, it'd warrant some skepticism, but I don't think that there's some next level airline price gouging that returns specific results a la Amazon. I don't doubt that the airlines would want that, but they can barely balance their checkbooks 364 days out of the year. Alternatively, it's a conspiracy.

Works great, if you're on a *nix I use this: ssh -D 1080 -Nf example.com You'll need an external system running ssh that you can bounce through. A Raspberry Pi at home will work, or just the cheapest VPS you can buy.

So the VA had me swallow a camera "pill" so they can see the inner bowels of my personal hell. I'm wearing a belt with a receiver on it and it's very odd. The camera is supposed to be flushed but I'm tempted to get it out of my poop for a souvenir  Super Aggro Crag posted:They already dip into the abyss. Must be your personality then? Women are far less shallow than guys when it comes to looks, if you can't land a reasonably looking woman maybe your attitude sucks.

My friend works at Jaguar Land Rover here in the middle of England ordering various nerdy engineers with terrible hygiene around. She met a guy there and they've hit it off fantastically, and he's really cool too. He loves cars, owns a real nice S2k and earlier sent me a bunch of 'clues' as to what he's got to play with this evening and asked if I wanted to go for a drive in it. Clues were: not JLR approximately 400bhp I asked where the manufacturer was from and it was the US I asked whether it was a new model, it was I asked whether it was electric, it was Tesla S So he's picking me up in a wee bit... quote:Sadly a bit low on juice, but enough for a mini hoon Awesome.

I have two of the Nanostation Loco M5s on a... 150' or so link. One is inside of a window pointing at the other, which is laying on its side on a shelf inside my garage. Full-speed, full-strength signal despite blasting through my garage door and at least two trees that are dead in the way. I literally have not had to log into either end of the link for a year+ at this point.
