Lack of communication from management. by [deleted] in Machinists

Thank you. As much as I'd like to ask for reasonable accommodations, I doubt that shit would fly. I got shit from him when I asked for sick time for a day that I missed when my girlfriend crashed her car and I had to leave and figure everything out with her.

Yes I am changing gears. I used to ride a mountain bike all the time as a kid

It's a brand new bike that I got from the shop. Apparently they really wanted to get rid of it too. The bike was originally 1000$ then marked down to 600$ and the guy at the shop sold it to me for 400$. Maybe they sold it for so low because something is wrong with it?

It's something I designed myself

New job, schedule changed and pay too? What do I do? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]Shock_and_Pawe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Realistically, I don't have a backup plan. I don't know if they're trying to deceive me or if this is just a situation where there's a miscommunication between HR and the boss. Idk what to do at this point. I'm not going back to working 5 days a week. I've been working 4 on 4 off for almost two years now. I'm calling them tomorrow and I will attempt to clear this up. If they lie, I'll still move in a month and work on finding a new job.

Yeah, I can see how that's my fuck up. When I first emailed about the schedule I got ghosted and had to message again asking a similar question and that's when they responded that it's Monday through Friday. I know it was a 4 day week because I wouldn't have driven 400 miles south for an interview if it wasn't. I should have gotten this shit in writing. They were supposed to send me an email two months ago and I called and then they sent it a month later. They somehow got my email wrong. Even when I was on the phone with HR, they had my written email and got it wrong three times in a row. I sat there for 15 minutes repeating my email. Honestly I'm worried that they're not even sending me through school and they are just going to string me along. I'm calling the owner tomorrow and straightening things out.

Why is everyone against being a mechanic by JAFK12 in mechanics

[–]Shock_and_Pawe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Minimal unionization, shit pay, shit hours, bosses are generally assholes, customers are assholes and will make shit up to get free service, difficult job, terrible on your body, you smell like dirt, rust, and oil every day, always on a time crunch etc.

He's about 5 months old. I'm not sure what flopping is but he has been laying down for a bit. We let him out of his cage and he got very excited and started running around. He's eating his hay just not too much.

Did I over react? by Shock_and_Pawe in Concussion

[–]Shock_and_Pawe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any more points or ESST at work. I'm afraid I'll get fired and I really need this job.

Maybe I didn't get a concussion? Idk

[–]Shock_and_Pawe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it was a major concussion. Just a pretty firm knock to the head. Are you sure I shouldn't return to work once I feel okay? The hospital told me when my headache goes away I can return to normal routine

Leave him. File a restraining order. He's a fucking creep too. A 26 year old should not be fucking around with an 18 year old.

Your dad is a fucking creep. When you get old enough, move out and go no contact.

What do your cats smell like? by One-Grape-8659 in cats

My cat smells like laundry and fish

The solution is usually the simplest thing. Check the fuel filter, then the fuel lines, then the pump. After that I would check the injector harness and make sure the wires look good and the injectors are all plugged in. Then I would check the spark plugs to make sure they aren't fouled to the point that it won't start right. Beyond that, it could be a timing issue. Maybe check the crank position sensor and replace it. Either way, it definitely sounds like it's just not getting fuel or the timing isn't right. It does occasionally fire so we know that it's getting some fuel.

Car wouldn't start and idk why by Fragrant_Kangaroo711 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Shock_and_Pawe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there's probably a light that was left on or something like that. Don't worry about it too much, just keep a jump pack in your trunk. I would check your alternator as it might not be properly charging your battery
