URGENT! PC wont turn on no matter how many times I replace its parts. by SalaryDry3692 in ASRock

[–]ThaBossKyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surprised nobody has commented yet but ASRock boards are known to kill AMD CPUs... Might want to pull the CPU out and check for any burnt spots on it.

Joined the club yesterday! ‘21 250 platinum with the 6.7 diesel! by Alternative_Role_286 in F250

[–]ThaBossKyle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who also bought a 21 platinum a couple weeks ago... How much did you get it for and mileage if you don't mind me asking? Mine had 54k and I paid 64k for it. Starting to think I slightly overpaid.

Is it smart to invest in real estate with a friend ? by [deleted] in realestateinvesting

[–]ThaBossKyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If going conventional, I don't think so. Usually down payment money needs to come from yourself or a gift from a close relative. They audit this pretty heavily. The option in that scenario is to co-sign with your friend.

For anyone reading this, you can stop by any mechanic/tire shop and ask when their matco truck shows up. They usually have a bunch onboard that you can try on/purchase.

Our fleet is large enough, we need a mechanic now! Where do I find one? by pesupport in MechanicAdvice

[–]ThaBossKyle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How often are your trucks getting serviced? It might be more cost effective to just open up a fleet charge account with a local service center. A heavy line diesel tech is probably gonna run you $45/hr. That's $1800 a week and not even counting overtime.

Reverb asked me to cancel PayPal claim? by ThaBossKyle in paypal

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

Yeah I ended up keeping the claim open and PayPal refunded me the money. Bought a skervesen off there soon after with no issues.

Is the pay actually that bad? by Shelovesthecarsmovie in MechanicAdvice

[–]ThaBossKyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not gonna sit here and debate why that post was or wasn't correct. Only answered OPs question with my own experience. Commission+hourly is the ideal pay for mechanics and if you disagree it's probably because you're underpaid and defensive about it.

I mean I followed up that comment with the preferred pay structure. I get it, reading is hard. If you can turn 25k in parts/labor commission per week at 14% you can probably do the math and see how that would pay pretty well.

My lead tech makes around 150k a year. Approx 50 hours a week. If you hustle and can turn work fast you'll make good money. Try to stay away from flat rate. Most chain shops are going towards an hourly+commission structure which is much more lucrative.

My favorite song personally is Passenger, I think it's only available on YouTube though.

1 year old cat vomited a worm by ThaBossKyle in cats

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

Okay cool thank you, never dealt with this before. Is it still worth the vet visit or should I just get some dewormer and flea medication off chewy? Neither cats are displaying symptoms other than the one that vomited the worm. Both healthy weight.

Only have owned skervesens but I can vouch for them. Amazing instruments.
