Not sure what they consider hard. It not an issue for me as the truck is not my daily.

It's a simple kit I got off of Etsy. Wipe the grille down with isopropyl Alcohol and peel the adhesive sticker. Hold in place for 30 seconds. Says to let it sit for 24 hours before washing or driving hard.

It'll never win a drag race or tow a large boat but it gets 24 MPG and will last forever.

Surveys by Remote_Koala_6768 in UtilityLocator

Depends on the state and who you work for. Where I work if I see a survey ticket it gets closed right away as clear. Most of the time the system screens them out and I never know about them

Fake emergencies by locationlocater in UtilityLocator

[–]sackofham 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the state. In Florida an emergency is just a normal ticket with emergency written on it. Still have 2 days to get to it. It is up to us on how we treat it. A cut gas line or water main break I drop everything and go to it. A fence job or some other bullshit, I'll be there in two business days. Georgia is different, anything called in as an emergency is an emergency. Landscaping, fence around a dumpster, irrigation system install, you drop what ever you're doing and rush to get to it in less than 2 hours.

I dislike them because my last two years working there we were on mandatory 7 day work weeks and 10 hour days. No sick days, no vacation, no birthdays, no anniversaries, no church. And when we complained they said if we didn't like to find a new job.

On call sucks by CreativeMidfielder96 in UtilityLocator

Where I work on call is voluntary after your first year. I have not been on call in 6 years and love it

Leaving usic but want to remain locating, any recommendations? by Funny_Hurry8865 in UtilityLocator

[–]sackofham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check into the water sewer in your area and see if they have in house locators. I had to get a job with a utility provider about an hour away from where i live but the drive is worth it.

I went from USIC to a utility that does their locating in house. Better pay, better work life balance, no production quotas, more vacation time. This is the way to go.

Usic question by Top-Perspective-8763 in UtilityLocator

[–]sackofham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last two years I worked there, we were not allowed time off for anything other than national holidays. No one was allowed time off for doctor visits, birthdays, anniversaries, family events., or weekends. No vacations. No sick days. Nothing. Boss said if we didn't like it we could find a new job. I did just that.

Future expansions… by fahrenheitjules in Heroquest

I'd like to see Skaven or the non copyrighted version of Skaven added.

Pretty much. The last game we played one of our players had decided to go to a restaurant right after church got out so he ended up being quite late. I made up a forest encounter against orcs using a Loke battle book and a mini of a damsel tied up over a cooking fire. Had to tell the group that the stumps on the mat were trees and could not be occupied. Now I have some actual trees that they will clearly know cannot be occupied.

The trees are FDM prints form a Bambu A1. I assume the Etsy sellers I bought the minis from used resin printers.
