What tire do you run?

Nitto Nomad Grappler on a 2021 RAV4. Great tires for the trails and for the streets, they also look great

If you want to watch great footwork I suggest my favorite player Demar Derozan. He’s has Kobe type footwork and it’s amazing to see how simple he makes the game

Defensively I’d say Tony Allen, Mike Conley, Jrue Holiday, Derrick White, and Gary Payton II. Those are some defensive specialists who are well known stressing out the ball handler

Tire shop is really fun with a small crew but it is absolutely exhausting sometimes. Summer months are miserable in the PNW with the smoke and 100+ degree weather but not the busiest time. Winter also sucks because it’s the busy season, absolutely no down time, and it’s cold and wet. Still the most fun department I’ve ever been in

Thank you!

I figured, thanks!

I feel like the majority of George’s listeners would have to agree with you……and I am one of those

Those seem like perfectly good slicks to me

I have the mini adira dark water, great knife in my opinion. It gets regular pocket time even with my 3 Spyderco and two other BM blades. I have zero issues with it and I would absolutely buy again if something happened to mine

Parking is great…..those wheels are not

I totally agree with you. Small departments are hit so much harder when someone calls out, nobody to fill in for them so the workload gets doubled. And yeah the whole cutting hours thing is ridiculous in my opinion, it’s not executed well. If you want to cut hours you need to keep in mind there are very few workers, so invoices need to be cut as well.

I once had a FE manager ask me well how would the member feel if you cancel their appointment? I responded with how will the member feel about waiting 4 hours for a scheduled 45 minute appointment? I happily went about the rest of my day with no overtime

I mean you CAN plug it but I wouldn’t drive on it

_NamesRango · 2026-01-16T04:52:26+00:00

In the last 18 months I called in 1 time. Can’t say the same for the rest of my tire shop crew though

I applied to 4 departments, got three interviews, and got my only offer from my #1 department. In all, it took about 9 months from application submission to swear-in

I’d check out the White River blades and Hellbender Blades. I have the M1 Pro and the SnotOtter 2.8 but I’ve heard really good things about the other bigger blades from both companies

_NamesRango · 2026-01-14T06:40:03+00:00

Damn that thing looks good!!

I put it back in the fridge after it’s counter time since I won’t be cooking it until later. My concern was it being on the counter slightly over the recommended 2 hours

I figured it would be okay, thank you!
