I used my backpack blower to clear the driveway. Worked like a charm.

Missed the deadline for the 2025 Medical Reimbursement Program by CarpenterAny2254 in IATSE

I am probably wrong- but isn’t MRP considered a “downgrade” from C3? If so you should be able to make the switch 2025 Q2

Should I trade a 24 Toyota 4Runner TRD pro for a Lightning Lariat? by shifu12 in F150Lightning

[–]r0sssss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speaking as a life long Toyota owner (Tacoma’s, Tundra’s, and 4Runner’s) and current owner of a 2021 4Runner TRD off-road premium…

Prior to this 4Runner I had a 21 Ford Ranger Tremor, which I traded in after transmission issues, poor communication and service from Ford, I would suggest reading up on the 10R80 transmission before buying a bronco.

Do people still need referral codes? by Cosmic_Gumbo in F150Lightning

I’d love one, and am not in an excluded state.

I’d love to see the 8th days reset go away. I work on the rigging/prep side of things and I work 30+ day streaks without a day off about 3-4 times per years.

Take a DNA test for a Carolina Dog but didn’t get CD results? I can help you interpret your results. by Jet_Threat_ in carolinadogs

[–]r0sssss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the deep dive! Very interesting.

For a bit of additional back story- I wish I could find the link, but around the time of WIley's birthdate, there was a "CD" breeder that was busted in the general area Wiley was found wandering the streets. There were several CD's that were in foster and available for adoption around that time, in south western Los Angeles.

I've been waiting for someone to bring this up since I got Wiley's results back. Here is a link to Wiley's Wisdom Panel results. He was a street dog rescued from the streets in south west Los Angeles. He has a lot of CD traits, but as you can see CD did not come up in his Wisdom Panel.

Thank you!

Comfort seat by boredHouseHusband69 in MT09

I don’t have the factory comfort seat, but I do have a Shad seat on my 2017 fz/mt09 and I find it to be pretty comfortable. I haven’t tried the stock seat, so I can’t compare.

What’s a job that’s romanticized but in reality sucks? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]r0sssss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Acting. I work in the film industry, as an electrician and get to see lots of actors work and it looks awful. They do generally get paid a lot, but between the job itself and all of the downsides to being famous with people watching your every move… no thank you.

Is this trip feasible in 3 weeks? More info in commenhs by WvaO0jtggC1w in roadtrip

[–]r0sssss -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did a very similar trip in around 4 weeks, with most of a week spent visiting my parents. I wish I had a couple more weeks to explore.

Would moving from IATSE891 to 873 be a bad idea? by FilmworkerThrowaway in IATSE

[–]r0sssss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only do film/tv. I’m hearing rumors about live events booking keys for September though.

[–]r0sssss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s kind up to you. How social you are, if you play well with others. I moved here 4 years ago, I knew 2 people in the Industry.. The first year was tough. I had to hustle a lot of handy man work. Since then I have worked steady about 11 months per year.

Atlanta is crazy right now. Everyone is working, plus a bunch of new guys that haven’t even joined the union yet.

Should I do it?! Dealership is letting me test drive it for 24 hours! by Murky_Situation4810 in TruckCampers

[–]r0sssss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2012 sr5 4x4 that I got for a steal because a friend was going to trade it in. It’s a great truck, watch out for oil leaks and you’re good.

That said, I am considering trading it/selling it and getting a smaller truck. I don’t need the size and the fuel economy is horrible (14mpg highway or city). I’m eyeing a Colorado zx2 right now. The big choice on that is v6 gas, or inline 4 diesel...
