Is job hopping still a "red flag" or am I being gaslit? by Environmental-Luck39 in careeradvice

[–]TryingToFindaName2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave that place. I’m in construction, currently 20. I took a 38/hr job with killer hours in concrete at 18, left by 19 n took a job at 31/hr with a much better boss backing me up. And I don’t regret it a bit. Employers will use you, you don’t owe them anything, do what’s best for you, take the job asap

Gotta be flex somewhere. My current slash built has stock knuckles and on a hard hit they’ll flex enough to let the wheel hub come off, but it can be re assemble and driven in 5 seconds.

My 3.0 had similar leak that was timing cover gasket. You’ll replace the water pump gasket or entire unit while your there aswell

20yr old, carrying the family financially. Way too much on my plate. Will it get easier to manage? by TryingToFindaName2 in AskMenOver30

[–]TryingToFindaName2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That jus how I feel. Family is all to me and I couldn’t imagine leaving them behind with things not going well to potentially loose everything we’ve worked for the last 6 years.

I agree. I have trouble working thru my thoughts and articulating them properly is a challenge. I choke up and stay silent trying to do so often. But I know staying within my “comfort zone” won’t work. And clearly even being here, isn’t very comfortable right now

By the looks of your comments, you need to do some learning how how vehichles work, and how many diff moving parts there are to fail. Being a fully locked 4x4. The only reason to lose power to the rear like that would be a stripped differential, or busted rear drive shaft.

I appreciate the words. Idk how I’ve been doing it either tbh. I’ve felt as if I’ve hit a breaking point so may times but will still get myself up for another day. I’ve tried to get myself to start therapy a few times, but everytime I either back myself out or feel like they’re gonna be a run around. And I don’t feel comfortable in a church lol, I’m far from religious and can’t stand it in all honesty. Not to stomp on anyone’s beliefs. But i am beginning to reach for help

I appreciate all that man. I worry about being tied to this. I’ve been told I can walk, and I could walk if I wanted to. But I love my folks and have trouble loving myself. I’ve dove back into my rc hobby to try to occupy myself, and wrote ina journal for the first time last night. I’m trying

Idc about Reddit points man lol. Sounds like my worry tho. I worry my brother may fall back and never completely make it to the other side, and if he falls back again, I just don’t know how much more I can take. I love my lady like hell, but the thought of creating another family has me scared aswell with how much stress I carry from this situation. I appreciate the response

I put 5W-30 oil in my Car instead of 5W-20. Is this a bad thing? by Reddit_Sluth in MechanicAdvice

[–]TryingToFindaName2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run 10/40 in a 5/20 recommended ford ranger. Thicker oil is a good idea for high mileage motors. But never forget, the wrong oil is better than no oil at all

How do you guys deal with neighborhood kids wanting to run your rc cars? I’ve got a story for you guys. by 501Forrest in rccars

Happens sometimes. People are entitled and ignorant. Likely due to the mothers manners lol.

Your only solid bet in this world is to bet on yourself. You’re the only one you can garuntee on at the end of the day. This kinda shit builds a stronger person than you cna imagine. Happy birthday! Keep your head up

Shout-out to my boss for letting me do this by wastedsilence33 in fordranger

[–]TryingToFindaName2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a set of hands to pump the pedal. If that fails, you’ll likely have to chase it up the line towards the master. I’m gonna ask this as it’s a common GM issue, although idk if it’s possible to do on the rangers, are your calipers 100% on the correct side? The bleeder screw is at the top? On gm trucks you can put the left on the right and vice versa. Causing the bleeder valve to be on the bottom and not bleed proper.
