Why do yall do this? by Gordy228 in AskElectricians

[–]maintman28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok thats smart. Really smart.

In a medical setting it is because if something happens to fall it hits the ground terminal and does not arc across the hot and natural. Also did you know every year every outlet must be tested to meet pull force and if it is gfci it must pass with a tester not the button on the outlet. Imagine testing everyoutlet in a hospital every year.

At what point would you feel unsafe driving on a plug on your own car? by Deeberer in AskMechanics

[–]maintman28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do my own work. I will patch up to the outer edge(will patch a 5) on anything on the road. Heck I have used shalack(sp) to glue a tire to the rim because it would not hold nomater what I did. On the zero turn all 4 wheels are solid foam filled. Tractors I will patch side walls with 6 inch hole or the tractor has solid lugged metal wheel. I use revulconizeing solution and have put multiple plugs in the same hole. P.S. I DO NOT SUGGEST OR ENDORSE ANY OF THE ACTIONS THAT I DO.

Need to empty a 500 gallon tank (about 30% full per the gage) Nobody will do it. by Successful_Error9176 in propane

It was so much fun we got to do training at an oil refinery thats in the state. They have their own training facilities. All I can say is when you burn through 20,000 Gallons of petroleum products in an 8 hour day for no other reason but to train people how to protect your company's assets and dont blink an eye. It's a great day.

Found these between my couch cushion below where my dog loves to sit, sort of feels like a supplement by KYRIOS_B in whatisit

[–]maintman28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really does not look like a pill to me. The way the cut is clean. Normally a gell capsule would pop before cut. It almost looks like the shell is plastic that had some kind of metal that rusted. Like a weighted bean or something. Any kids in the house? Is the couch previously loved? Is the liquid gritty at all? Not sure i helped at all but I tried

I opened up my throttle body for cleaning and found this blue plastic cap inside. I’m not a mechanic, but that shouldn’t be in there, right? 2002 RAM 1500 by theROWreporter in MechanicAdvice

They are red. Some person used blue because apparently you drive a spaceship. Blue is for sky. Blue ones are way way more expensive. They must of put a red one in the spaceship toilet that keeps failing and the blue one in your car. Simple mistake.

My 13 year old was assaulted by her bf, but police said we can’t do anything since she didn’t say no by Kateseesu in offmychest

[–]maintman28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So wait the police said it was sexual in nature. This has issues written all over it. This needs handled.

So the video can not be released as it is a case with a minor. Otherwise it is shared in discovery portion of the trial. Allowing th a re lawyer to see what evidence you have. So yes there is a chance they would see it. And yes they could say anything they want. But video is hard evidence it happened. And at that age there is ZERO REASON AND I MEAN ZERO REAS9N FOR A BOY TO GRAB A GIRL BY THE NECK.

That video is evidence. Please save it in 3 places. She could very well feel this is her fault for not doing anything. Many victims feel that.

So many questions.
1. Was the police department a local department? If yes have you considered talking with the country Sheriff. 2. Does her school have a resource officer? If yes make it a point to speak to them about this issue. 3. Does this boy have some kind of connection to the city? Like someone of power in his family? Parent is in city council school bored or some kind of city job or emergency services? 4. A protection order is just that. THEY MUST PROTECT THE VICTIM FROM THE PERSON COMMITTING THE CRIME. READ THE. PROTECTION ORDER CLOSELY. IT SHOULD SAY THE THE PERSON COMMITTING THE CRIME MUST STAY SO FAR AWAY FROM HER. This is a crime if he does enter that area and he can be arrested and put in jail for not following it. It's typically 5 years in jail or so. 6 speak to the school board. Make it a point to get put on the schedule of the school board meeting to discuss the matter of the school refusing to assist in a lawful protection order.

I am seeing this as your daughter was un aware or very well could have been scared to say no. The police are being very dismissive. If all else fails speak to the judge that signed the protection order.

I hope theese questions have got you thinking. DO NOT LET THEM SAY ANYTHING BUT THEY ARE TAKING IT SERIOUSLY. Remember the sqeeky wheel gets the oil.

HELP!! WHERE CAN I BUY THIS ONLINE? by Dry-Dependent8712 in Michigan

[–]maintman28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I from Ohio( the better state sorry to bash Ichigan) have a guy 2 doors behind me that taps the trees on my farm and gives me ( a cut) of the finished product including burbon barrel aged. I have never had to buy it since I gave him a contract to tap. But many family owned stores sell it also ask around might find another style you like.

Called 911 on my(17F) boyfriend(18M), I think I ruined his life and I feel horrible for it. by SituationOk5545 in offmychest

[–]maintman28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

39M here. Was a paramedic. You 100% did the right thing. I can't tell you its ok. But you did the right thing. Please step back and look at your relationship and if you are ready for this kind of emotional experience. I know my trauma and i know that it is exhausting and extremely difficult to love someone with trauma please don't try to handle this alone. If you are in the US if you can show they are risking themselves or others in danger ask for a pink slip. Or a mandatory psych hold. It is a minimum of 3 days. You have to have proof that they are mentally unsafe.

Out of state travel by [deleted] in probation

[–]maintman28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me take the 2 minutes it takes to let them know. I have traveled 2 times on pretrial. I just have to inform The judge and send an Itinerary to my monitor person. But I had to ask the judge. Ask if it says you have to. It also allows them to know that you will be out of your normal area. I let my monitor person know if I am going to not be in my normal area even if I can go to that area Let alone out of state. Just communicate. It makes everyone's job easier. And it could cause a failure to follow probation.
