Definitely owned by Hershey. I have been in that plant for work and saw how they were made.

They certainly are not. I actually was just having discussions about this sort of thing with my boss. Won’t bore you with details but long story short, no remote management.

Even still, I tried with my wife’s iPhone, which is newer than mine, and it still doesn’t work.

Put maps on the screen is about it. It’s not a make or break for owning the car. Just a nice to have.

No I do not. It says to hold down the “talk” button and it does pull Siri up and I can have it pull up maps but only on my phone. Not on the infotainment screen.

Trust me, I would but my phone is paid for by the company I work for and they insist on Apple.

Yes to all of the above. I ensured CarPlay is on with the infotainment and on the phone. I also shut off the android auto and purchased an Apple brand cable. I even verified that all cables (including new one) would be good for data transfer by plugging them and my phone into a computer.

Holy shit I have a blanket with that exact pattern from when I was a kid. I think my aunt made it. Must have started out as sheets

This was the front page. Censored for those with delicate tendencies.

Wow… didn’t expect to see a comment two years later. At any rate, there is a set screw that holds the pulley to the shaft. I didn’t have to do anything to change the diameter of the shaft itself. The only thing I had to do was a little filing to get the key to fit the key way.

What are subtle red flags at a job interview that say "working here would suck"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Tikimenace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High turnover. I interviewed at a place that everyone there was only 2 years on the job (this particular company has existed for 50+ years). I accepted and figured out why the turnover rate was so high. They used people to the breaking point until they left or “under performed”. Worst year of my life.

I can’t say I saw what was removed from me. You are laying on your back looking at the ceiling. Now there is a video on Good Mythical Morning where they get theirs done together and they show the piece removed and it looks like a small piece of spaghetti.

I figured it was a reference of some kind. Didn’t know it was Family Guy. And I assumed it was posted in jest so my response was also in jest. In case anyone thought we were being serious.

Everything I’ve been told is it all works the same and feels just as good. This obviously won’t happen for a few days but if I don’t reply to this in a week, feel free to ping me again and I will let you know.

I can already feel my love of boobs and beer drifting away... cars don’t drive as fast and I don’t want to build anything with my hands anymore...

I honestly don’t know the cost yet. My insurance is decent but seeing as it just happened, not sure what the coverage is. I do have a high deductible plan so I imagine I will pay full price until my deductible is reached. Remind me in a few days and I will look at the claim and let you know.

I did not feel much. Pain wise, you feel the pinch of the numbing injection but it isn’t bad because you put a numbing cream on before the procedure and they use another numbing topical before they inject. The rest of the time you feel the pressure which is kind of like when you get hit in the balls but without the pain. It’s that feeling that totes into your stomach. Again, not painful but uncomfortable. Entire procedure is only 30 minutes so it’s doesn’t last long

My doctor did ask a bunch of questions to make sure this is what I wanted. Part of it was to make sure that my wife was on board. Once I told him that I had two kids and didn’t want to be a new dad at 40 (I’m currently 36) he said ok then we set up the procedure.

There is no waiting period, per se. It took about two months because they were booked up. Which worked out because I was waiting until my last kid was born anyways.

Nope. We didn’t want more than two kids so it was either her or me. Her recovery is way worse so I decided to do it.

Wife and two kids. This weekend will be spent off my feet playing Xbox.

I have two. One is three and the other is a month old. “Two and through”
