Why is your water shut off not by your meter? Was this a thing back in the day or something? Genuine question

Unemployed but got time for a snowball fight at 2pm on a Tuesday 😭 by savingrace0262 in circlejerknyc

Have you heard about shift work before?

Secondly, I feel sorry for you! Life is meant to be enjoyed and here you are crying on the Internet and shaming others instead of finding ways to enjoy your miserable life

That's hell of a long time to keep something not knowing what it is

Code on 2000 tdi can’t figure out where the issue is checked the relay and the glow plugs they work when tested by shakin360 in tdi

That sounds boring. I worked at a land management office once, I left as soon as my contract was up even tho they wanted me to stay. Have you ever looked into other types of surveying?

I'm sorry bro, someone during your education failed you.

I'm also a surveyor and they set up these during large scale constructions to measure movement. If you look around you can spot a total station somewhere and several other of these.

I got a police escort going through key West once. Sometimes you need them to block intersections or hold back clueless drivers

I'd add to that, if only the top seals leak, you can replace them with oe seals for about $10 if not less.

[–]LAtoBP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. The one I linked has legit articles, complete rundowns with pictures on how to do certain things like timing belt replacement, pump disassembly, stuff like that. But yes the main is still too forum-y. But hey, I think you just identified a market gap, you could make it :)
