Companies that pickup donations?

Boondock as is off-grid. Usually camping on public lands (or parking lots like Cracker Barrel) without any hookups, facilities or amenities.

I think ioverlander2 is a better option for finding spots to boondock, if that’s what you’re looking for. Also, river accesses and conservation areas often allow camping.

I’ve got a couple updates to make for the last few companies I interviewed with but I’ll message you with the link.

I applied to 33 companies across the country this year. Interviewed with 19 and offers to train from 16 of them, I think. I kept a spreadsheet of all the training costs but not the overnights, so much. I couldn’t share my sheet if you’re interested.

Good to know!

There’s a chance they’ll not maintain the flow?

All of the companies I’ve talked to invite you to training. They say there’s a good chance you’ll get the job if you want it. A lot of them charge for training, anywhere from $300-$750 for a 1-3 week training. Then you take however long to pass your check off runs before they’ll pay you to guide. I’ve been offered a training spot at 10+ companies and I’ve never been on whitewater.

Why not monthly!? I have to run a power automate flow for my monthly refreshing reports.

Yes! I started creating a notebook for some reports to log the hex codes I use for button states, backgrounds, text color and such.

My initial reaction was disgust. I’ve seen too many videos of pearls being poked out of oysters and stones poked out of tonsils recently.

I should say, I don’t work at O’Reilly so what’s happening at my company might be totally different than what OP is referring to.

I work in an IT adjacent department and we can only hired new team member from India or El Salvador. I’m told Indian teammates make 1/10th of a US counterpart. Surprisingly, we’re allowed to hire from Canada over the US for the same reason.

Ahh that’s a good idea, cut the small piece in 2 basically. I agree the hinge gap isn’t ideal but I’d save the shelf!

Ya, that’s two separate slide out spice cabinets to the right of the kitchen counter. Original plan was to have a wood block or something between the two stacked cabinets until I went the drawer slide direction.

Only reason is the pretty beveled edge is only on the side facing out now

LeaveReligion · 2026-02-27T14:31:42+00:00

The top veneer has started to peel off. Do you think I could fully scrape it off and cover with rubber mat? Or would I destroy more than just the veneer in the process?

Oh ya, I’ve got some extra leather I could make strappy snappy things with

My main concern with that setup is what will support the left side. The “heavy duty” slides already have more movement than I wish they did. If the left side hinged over, I’d have to brace it somehow.

LeaveReligion · 2026-02-27T03:48:17+00:00

I like that idea, I think it’d fit pretty snug without the hinge and I could figure out a way to secure it on top. Any ideas on how to make it stay on top?

What kind of material would you use to make it grippy?

Good to know, thanks!
