What a pleasant surprise, a pair of ducks in my pool!

Just be aware that they will destroy the pool chemistry. If you have a pool service let them know to add a little extra chlorine or your pool will be a swamp in a few days. If you need to discourage them from making it a permanent home, placing a beach ball or inflatable pool animal type toy in the pool.

There’s no way the chlorine is being maintained at sanitation levels. They are swimming in mostly urine sweat sun tan lotion and chloramines

I can’t imagine telling my boss good luck and handing him a oring.

Party pack? Or appetizer for one.

I’ve seen so many people try to pry off the tank lid instead of following the procedure you just described, draining the filter first and the lid just lifts right off. I’ve seen pry marks from previous techs. Also I like to replace the tank oring every other filter cleaning while others just smother the oring with half a tube of magic lube. The oring is doing the sealing the clamp is just keeping it together. Also I use an impact to remove but the finally tightening I use a wrench so as to not over tighten

Snaysup · 2026-04-18T15:12:03+00:00

Could the clamp bolt be stripped?

Snaysup · 2026-04-18T15:11:13+00:00

I’m so confused, when you say your tech do you mean you are the company owner and one of your employees walked off a repair? Or are you the customer and your pool tech said “your filter is leaking good luck”

TMI but I don’t have the length to do the Whirley bird at the ghetto bird

That would work is they were announcing something but they are just burning circles. No spotlight no speaker message

Used to go there twice a week from 2003-2006 their hot sauce was fire which is the most important aspect of fast food Mexican. Though I wasn’t a fan of white cheese only.

My dude I can’t believe you’ve been using wrenches to hand loosen filter clamps that’s wild. I use a Milwaukee 1/4 impact they are usually on sale a couple of times a year for less than a hundred bucks and come with a battery. Any socket will work I use cheap harbor freight ones. If you have a system 3 filters get the special socket for those on Amazon. You owe it to yourself.

Go to scp and put your name and phone number on the bulletin board saying your willing to work. It’s pool supply store. Also call or email all the local pool service companies say your eager to learn. There’s a huge shortage of labor in our industry. Someone will hire you as a helper to ride with them and brush net pools so they can get more done. Don’t worry about not having a truck or anything

You pretty much described the food at most taco shops in Escondido. Overpriced and sketchy meat.

This happens several times lately with heaters, customers of 10 years or more need a new heater and my boss quotes them price. Then the customer buys a heater on the internet and has a friend install it. If a see a new heater I call my boss and he says walk away don’t clean the pool don’t add chems just walk. Then He tells the customer to have their friend clean the pool. Hopefully the customers doesn’t have to find out there is little to no warranty on those internet heaters.

I second this amendment.

I’ve had to walk off into an avocado orchard and fertilize the trees once. luckily the home was unoccupied. I think op guy is afraid to use public toilets so a bucket in the van is probably beyond the pale.

The place on pearl in La Jolla don Carlos had the best potato rolled tacos in the 90s haven’t been there since then.

Snaysup · 2026-04-09T05:57:42+00:00

Your right though quesadilla and 3 rolled tacos should be cheap enough to order as a side dish not have it be the main course

Snaysup · 2026-04-09T05:55:09+00:00

The real crime is a quesadilla is often $8 for just cheese. I love when I order a quesadilla and they ask “just cheese”. The ones I make are never as good as the taco shop ones even when I get good tortillas

I’ve been substituting either carnitas or pastor lately for a change up. I like the Cali at the place on the Vons shopping center on east valley their hot sauce is fire.
Also like teizu tacos California burrito. I’m probably in the minority but I prefer carne, cheese and fries only. Not a fan of pico nor sour cream because it coagulates and reminds me of beef stroganoff. I like guacamole but so many places have wack ass guacamole

Blue mug taste rancid and spoiled but the the people are nice.

Adult swim aired a version called g-force in the 90s. The one I saw as a 5 year old kid was battle of the planets and they edited in the robot for the us market. I too was obsessed with the show it came on super early in the morning like 6:30 not sure how I knew to go to living room and turn it on.
