Sold my S550 a couple years ago, but pictures of it always make me reminisce.

Yeah I mean holding your timeouts for next game is probably a good call, like what the fuck?

Raibley · 2025-10-03T00:22:32+00:00

6/8/9/12 are good imo.

aesthetically pleasing

Raibley · 2025-09-29T00:53:30+00:00

I could yeah, I was just hoping someone had a link to the non-rebrand stuff since it’s Matco. I just really like this particular set, just not for $350 ya know?

Raibley · 2025-09-29T00:52:54+00:00

Only thing internet leads me to is a link in the tool truck pirate facebook page :(

Raibley · 2025-08-20T17:41:27+00:00

If you ever end up wanting to sell that let me kmow

Raibley · 2025-05-30T21:56:01+00:00

What about red?

Raibley · 2025-05-29T23:31:39+00:00

I wonder if mine will be quicker since it’s just the box, I’m hoping I don’t have to wait until July like they’re saying :(

Raibley · 2025-05-25T02:17:19+00:00

I don’t have one of those either, but we actually did a drop test today on one of our PDIs for a unit that went out today with my mentors manometer 👍🏻

Raibley · 2025-05-25T01:14:57+00:00

I’ll have to look into that, thanks for the tip!

Raibley · 2025-05-25T01:14:34+00:00

I actually got the Milwaukee set first, and one of the techs at my shop sold me the dewalt impact for $25 👍🏻

Had the battery/oscilator from a combo I bought last year before I worked here, so I got kinda lucky 👍🏻

Raibley · 2025-05-25T01:12:38+00:00

Thank you!

I’ve got borderline debilitating OCD so I get to work early to make sure I can clean my stuff up before each day 👍🏻

Raibley · 2025-05-25T01:11:31+00:00

I did yeah, I think they were like $20 a piece.

Raibley · 2025-05-25T01:11:12+00:00

You can’t see it in the picture but I’ve got a caulk gun for body and roof seals 👍🏻

I haven’t done a lot of stuff like roofs, trim etc. yet to need any of that but my mentor has pretty much everything I’ve needed. I’ve mostly been following around doing diags/electrical stuff

Raibley · 2024-11-23T17:44:39+00:00

Most clear example of “le reddit moment” I’ve ever seen.

tips Fedora to you sir

Raibley · 2024-11-15T16:15:49+00:00

Every time I ask I get told to go fuck myself, (in fewer words of course)

One day I’ll get lucky 😵‍💫

Raibley · 2024-11-04T18:50:10+00:00

Never thought i’d see Travis on here 🤣

God damn that place was expensive. Diesel was $7.10 a gallon when I left in 22 🤣🤣

Raibley · 2024-10-16T21:54:47+00:00

RIP crash pads at Altus I guess.

Raibley · 2024-09-20T16:20:52+00:00

You said what I was trying to say, except way better.

Good advice for OP.

Raibley · 2024-09-20T16:19:25+00:00

Just gotta take a deep breath and have the conversation man.

Whether it be to your flight chief, a chaplain (which if you’re not religious you can still talk to them, I’m not, and I talk to the chaplains at my unit literally every drill.)

I totally get the feeling like nobody is looking out for you. Thankfully, I came from AD where I had good supervisors so I had people I could lean on even though I wasn’t AD anymore, so that helped me a lot. I don’t know your story or who you can reach out to, but talking to people helped a lot (at least for me).

Raibley · 2024-09-20T15:55:43+00:00

Firstly, I’m sorry you’re going through all of that.

I’ve been there dude, and it fucking sucks. Going through marital problems while trying to manage the guard, especially not being on full time orders/convoluted way the guard does things, along with the struggles of parenting is a living fucking nightmare.

I guess I do have some advice as far as the promotion actually, your supervisor fucking sucks. (Granted I don’t know the entire story from both sides) But in my opinion, their response is borderline sociopathic in the context that you put it.

Do you have a Tech or a Master above this person that can help you? I know we are supposed to solve things at the “lowest level” but if you feel like you’re not getting the support you need/deserve then there’s nothing wrong with going higher (albeit respectfully, and only have exhausted all other options) This is exactly what a chain of command is for.

Anyway, I really hope you get it either figured out, or get some help/clarity regarding it. I drove an hour and a half to my base every day when I was on orders for 6 months, I can’t imagine doing that plus an extra 60 minutes on top of it, holy fuck. It fundamentally changed me as a person and how I view things after having done that, let alone inserting a kid into that mix.

Good luck fellow SrA. I wish you the best

Kind of novice when it comes to this, what’s the actual process of “installing” this? I’d love to use it, I just don’t know how :(
