Whatever happened to Used Sunlight Sales? Dude owned a bunch of land in the midwest (I want to say KS or OK?) and made some good posts detailing the machines and tools he used.

Then he just disappeared.

poo poo, I forgot about that guy. His posts were really cool in a land-management sort of aspect. I remember him bulldozing a lot of invasive trees.

Trigger warning: trigger

Gunchat: bought a small thing this week. It's just like my other 1911 except that it's tiny :3:

HR is always full of the most useless toolbags in the world

I've only worked at one place with a legit HR dept. but this is 100% accurate. I have personally advised coworkers to NOT take certain grievances to HR because I have watched them fumble everything handed to them that I was involved in.

poo poo, one year I got a yearly merit % increase AND a title change raise within a month of each other because I brought in conflicting paystubs and played stupid. I was pretty sure I was only supposed to get whichever was larger (this was true), but the director of HR himself "fixed" it for me and I got both :haw: This resulted in me making like, $0.08/hour more than my direct supervisor and good friend, who waited a month and stomped into HR asking why his assistant/fill-in made more than him. They had to give him a substantial raise. It was a loving awesome month.

166 dollars more than him over a whole year made him upset? :laffo:

Oh hahah, no - he didn't care at all. Like I said, we're good friends. He just used it as an excuse to act a little miffed and get a raise since he's titled higher/has more seniority.

On my way home tonight I saw a Tesla Model S "drag race" a late 90's Mustang.

It went about how you would expect it to go.

The Mustang accidentally pit-maneuvered the Tesla off the line?
