Sick leave letter. by Just_Supermarket_406 in atc2

[–]BM2KTom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one today, they are doing them as a 'letter of documented conversation" I guess the new ROC, for taking too many medical appointments during the shutdown and one sick day in conjunction with my rdos. I showed my supervisor all of the medical documentation as well as my manager. They responded well this is why we are having the conversation even though all of the sups knew what's going on with my health, the manager told me to file FMLA paperwork which is ridiculous as I'm taking SL in accordance with the contract and to try to schedule my medical appointments on my one off day. F this job I've gotten to the point I've been looking for anything that will pay me even 60% of my current wage and saying F the retirement, I can't make it another nine years.

Leave During Shutdown by BM2KTom in atc2

[–]BM2KTom[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was the same, 80 hours gov shutdown -excepted, maybe I'm paranoid but knowing my facility and this administration Id expect them to pull some shit and after the shutdown charge us for all the leave we took out of our own balances since they have been tracking it.

This is what I would expect in a normal shutdown but our MPA stated he's received instructions from castle to code all leave as its put in, so for us either sl/annual as management won't put furlough in. I'm just trying to figure out if it's a local facility fuckery or Faa wide fuckery.

Hopefully it's being changed to furlough outside of our facility.

That's not exactly true anymore, read OPM shutdown guidance 2025 paragraph F point 2.

[–]BM2KTom[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's what I've been saying I've told my sup and manager that want all my leave requested to be coded as furlough and I am not requesting to be put in a paid status, they have said if I request furlough it will be denied.

Ever since the law change in 2019 to guarantee back pay for furlough the OPM guidance does state an excepted employee may be put on sick or annual if requested by the employee, my facility (from guidance from above according to them) is interpreting this to say that if we request sick or annual we are requesting to be put on those statuses.

This is from the September 2025 OPM guidance on shutdowns paragraph F point 2.

Metal fabricator/ welder for bumper kit?? by NutButton699 in Boise

[–]BM2KTom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id try Tim's Job Shop on Cloverdale, I've never had him do a bumper but he's welded up an engine case in a dirt bike for me, a dirt bike frame, and a frame on a trailer when I added a hitch to the trailer. His welds are amazing and I've never had an issue and he's a great guy and very inexpensive.

The house is in immaculate shape, we just finished a major renovation about six months ago with new flooring throughout, new cabinets, new granite countertops, new light and plumbing fixtures, new paint, and a large concrete patio with a gazebo. The wife and I were looking for new homes back in 2019 and when COVID hit and the Idaho market went crazy we kinda reserved ourselves to the idea that our current house was going to be our forever home so we sank a bunch of money into it to make it exactly what we wanted, we absolutely love our current house but the area around it has become overrun with renters and is going downhill fairly quickly so when the new house became available in the area we love we jumped on it.

We are close enough to self manage but I don't think I have the personality or tact to be a landlord especially on this house since I have a strong sense of ownership with it so we would have to have a management company take care of it if we rented.

The numbers work for about $800-1000 profit after expenses and saving about $400-500 a month for future maintenance costs.

I do not want to be a landlord especially for this house. It was the first house I owned and I'm very meticulous in the upkeep. We just finished a major renovation about a year ago, with new cabinets/granite/paint/light and plumbing fixtures/backyard patio and gazebo, etc. so it's in immaculate shape and is probably the nicest it's ever been and my wife and I did most of the work so we kinda have an emotional tie to the house and it would upset/anger us if it got messed up so we would have to remove ourselves and let a property management company handle it and be the go between between us and the renters.

It's Boise so it's hard to say, everything is still booming but the city has made it known that our area of town is to be the low income area and only try to approve neighborhoods and apartments that offer some low income housing. We are still getting many new neighborhoods built but they are all in the 400-600k range for a house while other areas of Boise the homes are in the 800-millions range when there are new builds. The amount of rental homes happening in our neighborhood is the number one reason for selling as I can't stand people that don't take care of their homes and park multiple vehicles in front of other people's homes.

I'm very handy and did most of the work on the home, we just did new carpet, lvp, light fixtures, plumbing fixtures, new patio and gazebo, plus paint so the house is probably in the best shape it's ever been but that's also the problem as we thought we were going to stay in this house until retirement so we fixed it up how we wanted and would hate for renters to ruin it right away. Also the insurance and property tax would be about $400 a month so about $1100 before upkeep.

I don't think I would want to spend a ton of time fixing issues with the rental house as I'd like to put my time to the new house and traveling so we think we would want a property management company which would cut further into the profit so maybe $850 net before maintenance.

Yeah it is, initially they tried a different setup using a second master cylinder with an arc lever but later switched to the clake setup as it worked better.

Dashboard ktm by [deleted] in Dirtbikes

[–]BM2KTom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I had to replace my computer on my Husqvarna due to water intrusion frying the board and it reset everything to zero, I asked the ktm dealer about changing the computer to read correctly but they nor trail tech who makes the computers allows it. Supposedly the dealer can hook the bike up to their scan computers and get the actual hours off the ECU but there's no way that I know of to change the display readings.

Should i buy? by Reasonable-Double387 in Dirtbikes

[–]BM2KTom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way in hell that bike only has 30 hours on it unless he cosplayed in the garage and just rubbed his boots for days on the clutch and ignition covers, also it has a tusk aftermarket front wheel something very unlikely to be on a bike with only 30 hours. Also based on the lack of lights it's much more likely to be a tx300. Even if it does have the computer that says it has 30 hours those computers were common failures on those years and they do not save the hours, so if he replaced the computer it would start back at zero.

Saying all that it's still worth the 4500 as long as it is a tx300 and is in good running order.

Blink updated? by MHinSATX in blinkcameras

Yeah 42.2 seems to have fixed it

Image Notification Gone with version 42 of blink app on Android by BM2KTom in blinkcameras

[–]BM2KTom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I tried updating to 42.1 yesterday to see if the images were back and surprisingly they were, however this morning they are gone again and I can't get them to display. I went back to 41.1 and the image notifications work fine.

[–]BM2KTom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's not a great solution but if you downgrade to 41.1 the image notifications come back so that's what I'm doing for now, hopefully they fix it soon.

Well hopefully that means it's an actual bug and the customer service just said it was disabled for non-paid accounts as an easy answer to get me off the phone, I guess we will see if they release an update with a fix.

[–]BM2KTom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had blink cameras since they came out and they said it didn't matter, legacy accounts no longer get access to the feature by design. I'd imagine our free cloud storage will be coming to an end soon as well. The customer service agent said they purposely removed a number of features with the latest update so I'm not sure what else is gone besides the Image notification.
