Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

[stormchaser2014]

Of course when I talk about finding a different job, my foreman talks to the boss about raises. We'll see what happens. We're back down to 3 of us now. I think that anybody that is walking in trusses ans on a roof shouldn't be paid anything less than something with a 2 in front of it.

I this case we have just the opposite. I was just doing routine maintenance on my mower and pulled the plug cover off. Have no idea how long it was like this but it ran all last year.

Just never thought I would pull the plug wire off and the electrode would come with it. Just really odd.

I've been doing maintenance this wk, every time there is extra stuff. Found a leaking valve stem today, not the darn core which is a easy swap, but the stem so the tire is off and will go to be fixed Monday. Sigh.

I’m finally getting my hair cut today, weeks later than I should have. This is the sign by the front door. Made me smile.

Quik Star will pay you almost 20, you shouldn't be below that.

Dang it someone post that after it happens, I'm working and will miss it.

Just saw Axios has a playlist for the eclipse, so those of us going nowhere tomorrow (pun intended) still can feel connected to the rest of the sun-watching world

Now that has to be interesting. How does a flat earther explain an eclipse.

I'm going to Mom's house for the first time since her funeral. This going to be weird, isn't it?

Yes.

One of the first times I went I had my silver lab with me and he went room to room looking for her.

I HATE car shopping

Update. By far the worst car shopping experience I have had. I would hate to be a salesman there. Zero empowerment, and what turns out to be ****** deals. No you aren't going to charge me a $2k cleaning fee on the purchase vehicle and then nearly $1k for that on my trade in. F U.

If 71 percent of the earth is water, and that water is not carbonated, the earth is in fact, flat.

Sky Automall in Center Point. Manager acted all confused when I started questioning charges and stuff saying "I thought the payment was what mattered to you." I am not dumb and know how the equation works dude. Don't just play the payment game with me giving me nearly 10k less on my trade than it is worth. Plus all the other BS

I've looked at school cars for the kids there, but never got that far with them. Good to know.
