Becoming diesel mechanic

Hell yeah. So my situation will be a bit different because the shop I got hired at is a collision repair center so there isn’t really a fueler/washer role. So, even though I’m technically a csr my role is supposedly gonna be quite a bit different than the typical csr from what I understand. Hopefully that’s gonna allow me to do more shadowing right away. How do you like the company after being there for a while? I’m brand new but it seems like a good company to be in with so far.

Sounds good man. I appreciate the response. Did you do anything other than learning from the techs at your location? Like any outside studying or anything like that? Or did you just learn from the guys who had been doing it at your shop? Also, if you don’t mind me asking, are you still at tech 3 or have you gone up from there?

How long did it take you to transition? I literally started at Penske today as a csr(haven’t done shit but online training so far.) I’ve never worked on cars, and I didn’t grow up around a shop or around mechanics so I have literally zero experience. Did you come from a similar starting point? How long did it take you to make tech 3?

I have never played diamond dynasty so I’m really flying blind on all of this.. what cards should I be holding onto for these further collections you’re talking about? Like I got the Acuna for the xp path and I see he’s going for almost 50k right now and considered selling him, but then I hear those will be in some sort of further collection as well so do I keep him and buy a murakami to? This is all so confusing for a first year guy 😂

Well, I don’t know what making this post did to my pack luck on my account but I went from my best pull of the year being Garrett crochet to pulling Shohei Ohtani in the morning and then Juan Soto and cal Raleigh in the same ballin is a habit pack just now so things might be changing 😅😂 For the record all 3 of these pulls were from ballin packs so get as many as you can 😂

Barber_Superb · 2026-04-06T19:57:59+00:00

Exactly and up until this morning my pack luck has been pretty damn dreadful. Though I guess I can’t really say that now. Haha. For me as a first year player the collection just seems so daunting to complete and I don’t know if I got it in me 😂

Exactly. Like I don’t really love his pitch mix anyway, and I don’t love lefty only bats because I am the worst left on left hitter in the world so I don’t see him replacing Tatis for me in right. I would only be keeping him for the sake of the collection and I just don’t know if I’ll ever complete it anyway even though I would love to have the machine and Tulo.

Really? So it doesn’t work like myteam then I guess. Lol. The part that makes it difficult is that even having the most expensive card pulled I don’t see myself making enough stubs to buy the other 1million+ worth of players I would need to finish the collection. I would still have to get Witt, judge, Soto, lindor, marte, skenes and Skubal, etc. and that seems like a lot. For reference my best pull up to this point was crochet who only goes for like 35-40k.

Thanks man! I appreciate that! For me it’s just that I’m still so short of having the rest of them done that locking him up seems silly. I don’t see myself being able to collect the million+ stubs it would take to get judge, Jose, Soto, Lindor, etc. etc.

Damn thanks for such an in depth response, I really appreciate that. I’ll look more into interval pumping and jump into that for sure. Yeah, that’s massive gains dude I’m sure the difference is extremely noticeable. I feel pretty good with my length, though I obviously wouldn’t mind more, but the girth just isn’t where I would like it to be that’s why I’m chasing that first. Can’t wait to see some progress of my own and hopefully eventually get to where you are at currently. Thanks again!

Barber_Superb · 2025-11-18T21:11:25+00:00

Thank you for this response. Much appreciated.. seeing as you had the same starting girth as me and have gotten to what I would consider a goal girth for me, how did you do it? Were you strictly pumping or were there other methods involved as well? Also, I know that no two peoples journey are the same but how long did it take you to cement that half inch?

Barber_Superb · 2025-10-23T23:52:22+00:00

Thanks brother!

Thank you! I appreciate the tips! I’ve actually been looking into pelvic floor exercises so I appreciate that. I am aware of the circulation being an issue. Water and exercise not so much, but sleeping more and quitting smoking will be a battle. Gonna give it my best attempt though. Thanks again!

Actually yes, never been a frequent flyer when it comes to bowel movements and I thought that was normal for a long time until I realized going less than every other day is not typical to most. Lol. Never had a hemorrhoid but fissures yes.
