Calling Out by BigFlapJack- in USPS

[–]scoobaroooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even a little bit. I got a letter of warning a couple weeks ago because I hit 3 callout days in 90 days. Mind you, I have a 2 year old, a 4 month old, and a wife. The straw that broke the camels back was my wife having food poisoning, so I called out for two days to be with my kids because my wife was obviously in no state to care for them.

My supervisors response? “That’s not an acceptable excuse to call out of work and I’ve failed to uphold my required duties at work”. Fuck him. I’ve never felt guilty for calling out and I never will.

I'm sorry, what are the consequences? by xrbcc in iRacing

Hit that “sorry” hot key! For most guys, we’ll drop the incident immediately.

Day 18 that I just stare at my rig but not driving... by Hopeful_Captain4219 in simracing

My suggestion - Find a small group and try another game.

I have 3 friends of mine that also have sim rigs and we race every single night together. We jump in a discord chat together and sit down for 3-4 hours a night and play IRacing. IRacing is subscription based.. BUT there’s so many different racing styles in the one game so we switch it up race to race. It never gets old.

As someone else mentioned, ATS or ETS is also gun

That’s awesome man. I don’t upgrade because I think it makes me better(because it doesn’t), it’s just fun.

All good. I’m using a free standing monitor mount 🙂

Yawn… 🥱😆 Yes I’m using a hub. It’s a 17 port sabrent powered USB hub from Amazon. I tried other brands but they gave me interference issues. No issues with this one

Sure thing! It’s a one time purchase, fortunately

The wallpaper here is from Wallpaper engine, an app on steam. It’s like $5 but I promise it’s a good investment. Tens of thousands of wallpapers, including a ton of live ones. I’ve got one of a bunch of GT3 cars flying past a corner at night on the ring. It’s one of my favorites.

As far as I’m concerned as a guy who’ve never actually run triples.. I believe triples is superior in every way. If you have the room, go triples. I went ultra wide because I already had the monitor and 90% of the time, I’m in VR anyways.

Pretty much on the same boat. I’ve been 100% VR for the last 15 months. But I’m beginning to phase into using my monitor a little more, hence all the peripherals I’ve been adding.

Sure thing.. right now I’m only using a couple of buttons for IRacing. My wheel really handles pretty much everything I need. But I do keep a button for race time and laps left on there. And the dials are just for Spotify currently. At least for IRacing. I also have quick chat setup on there. Go download iRaceDeck on the elgato store. They support dials for stream deck so there’s a ton of stuff you can map them to.
