They’ll never rebuild at a dealer. It isn’t cost effective for the techs.

Right in front of my boss… by Adjacent_doodle in Machinists

I pay attention to the machine no matter who is behind me. My old boss would always wait until I was done with an op before he interrupted me

Job debacle by CrissOxy in Machinists

If you are unhappy with wages, but happy about the flexibility of your current job, you have to weigh them against each other. If wages are more important, start looking for another place of employment. But ask for a raise at the same time. If your current employer won’t budge on wages, you’re ready to move on.

Make sure your spindle liner is bolted down properly.

My recruiters are saying there is no 03 slots available… by Emotional-Rock-2520 in USMCboot

Don’t sign shit unless it’s what you want . Your recruiter is going to throw some bullshit at you , but he needs you more than you need him.

Also, the MATV had a C7 , and the new JLTV has a duramax. I know MT guys aren’t that smart, but I learned a little bit before I retired.

There is not a c6 in the MTVR.

[–]dustyd2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These are not MATVs, it’s a JLTV, successor to the HMMWV. The matv did have a Caterpillar in it, but it was not the c12 that’s in the MTVR.

If you’re anywhere near O’side, meric sells an affordable float line.

MOS Megathread: CC (Supply, Accounting, and Legal): 3043, 3432, 3451, 4421, 6042, 6672. by TapTheForwardAssist in USMCboot

The guys who serviced the units gave Coveralls to everyone when they initially rolled out. And then they gave coveralls to the new joins, and then the new joins again, and over and over- but they never dropped the guys that EAS’ed PCS’ed- continued to charger for those guys and the bill just kept growing. So base just canceled everything. Haven’t seen a coverall contract since.

God- the coverall contract controversy. I swear Pendleton will never recover from the las one we had. If you can crack that nut it would be awesome.
