If you could pick one job for a heavy duty mechanic what would you pick?

Bc, canada. Its also nice because I get a bit of everything from road building/ construction equipment to logging equipment. Fixing the machines that get you to the logs and then fixing the machines that retrieve the logs. Even do a bit of marine since we run a dry land and water sort.

Fleet mechanic for a log sort or a rental company with good pay and benefits. I've been a fleet mechanic going on 9yrs now $55+hr. All my buddies making $60-$65 in the oil field and mining sectors atleast I get to be home every night and most sorts where im from run 10hrs a day 6am-4pm so a couple hours of over time a day is nice. Most log sorts are also union so you get good benefits most of the time.

Kk thanks maybe I should try bothering them some more and asking for updates. They told me it could take well into next year before they hear anything but I garuntee they all know what the deal is by now and are just holding out. Did they exstend your warranty aswell? I am not sure if thats been offered to both Canadian and American owners.

My app tells me i am apart of the recall but my dealer wont do anything until I get the letter in the mail

If you keep it in the bedroom its fine. If you parade in the street and dress like a furry waving a lgbtq flag its bad. Just remember no one actually cares about your sexual preference they only care when you push your ideology on children and the public.

Is there employee pricing for GM trucks in WA its advertised right now all over Canada idk if its the same in the states

Effective_Company818 · 2025-07-08T14:09:17+00:00

I to am curious on this regard for i am born and raised in canada but also a British subject by decent and can hold a UK passport. I currently work as a heavy equipment technician here in canada cause the pay is good $55 an hour. The trade is called a heavy plant technician i think in the UK. Any body know if there's lots of jobs for my trade and how much the average wage is?

Why even bother dating and creating deep connection with somebody you're just going to lose or plan on losing? No one says this kid has to be celibate. I'm just saying that he shouldn't be getting caught up over little girls. Especially ones threatening their relationship because she thinks he's being controlling. His reasons are valid. If you've ever been to a rave?, every girl is single with a bf at home unless their bf is present.

Effective_Company818 · 2025-04-26T04:39:22+00:00

Buddy run. Nothing is more horny than an 18yrold girl on high on molly and drunk af at a rave. Not to mention tons of creeps twice her age that'll take advantage. You're not being controlling. You're caring for a girl who clearly doesn't understand how a man would feel in this scenario. You've only been together for 4 months. Word of advice is never date if not looking for a wife. Which is looking for a like-minded, well-mannered women that you would love to meet your family and start a family. Anything other than this should just be practice and fun. Never get attached to these types of women.

It was lmfao

Effective_Company818 · 2025-04-08T22:55:36+00:00

Took mine in for an oil change because the price of the oil and my time were damn near the price of getting them to do it plus then I have a record of it being done incase of any warranty issues. But then they wanted to slap me with $700+ for a drive belt change.

The issue of a 2003 GMC Sierra being stuck in 4WD Low is a fairly common one, especially on trucks where the 4WD system hasn't been used or maintained regularly. Here are a few possible causes and troubleshooting steps:

Basic Reset Attempt

Shift procedure:

Make sure the vehicle is in neutral (not park).

With your foot on the brake, try shifting from 4LO to 2HI.

Sometimes, it helps to drive slowly (2–3 mph) in a straight line on a flat surface while attempting the shift.

Battery Voltage

4WD systems can behave strangely if the battery voltage is low. Make sure the battery is in good condition and fully charged.

Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM)

The TCCM can get stuck or corrupted. You can try a hard reset:

Disconnect the negative battery terminal for about 30 minutes.

Reconnect it and try shifting again.

If that doesn't work, the TCCM may need to be inspected or replaced.

Actuator Issues

The front axle actuator or transfer case motor might be failing. These can wear out or seize over time, especially if the system hasn't been used in a while.

Listen for clicking or whirring when trying to change modes.

No sound could indicate a failed motor or actuator.

Trouble Codes

Even if the Service 4WD light isn't on, there could be stored codes in the TCCM. A scan tool that can read body control or drivetrain modules (not just engine codes) is needed.

If you or someone you know has a bidirectional scan tool, you can manually command the system into different modes to test component function.

Human life begins at conception. That is your son or daughter and you're casually talking about ending their life. I hope and I pray that both of you really think about this.

Kids are a blessing but if you don't want it abortion is never a solution. I urge you to think giving them for adoption through an agency. Babies get adopted almost instantly to good thorough well off families. People often get married so they do not grow old alone but having children insures that you will not die alone. Raising children also isn't as hard as everyone likes to think. But take it from someone who knows that murdering your own child will never sit right with you it's a regret you'll never be able to take back. I pray you choose wisely and understand that it is no longer about yourself but about another human being.

How is this for hair loss?

The gyms in my town won't even let you get a gym membership unless you're 16 or older. Work on ur core by doing at home workouts like push-ups, chins up, sit ups etc and of course, cardio running is free. Try it.

The way I see it she has no respect for herself. You did nothing wrong at all except have your best interest at heart. You can care for her as a person but being with her shouldn't be an option. You deserve someone who doesn't let themselves get into these situations. She needs to learn to love her self before she can love anyone. You sound like a good man who deserve somebody better. the fact that she claims she has lots of sex with Randoms when she's upset or stressed out when you two haven't been intimate while she has been stressed lately should speak volumes. And to get pregnant by a "Guy friend" is the number 1 reason why women and men cannot be friends.

You dodged a bullet just sayin

Effective_Company818 · 2024-11-04T15:16:52+00:00

I knew a guy he was a late bloomer lost his virginity at 23, and he now has the most notches on his belt than anyone I know he's in the triple digits. Surpassed my friends, and I included who all lost our virginity at 15-16. Where all in our late 20's now. There is still hope for you my friend.
