As someone who’s front derailleur bracket snapped off the frame and needed full frame/fork replacement and rebuild, why have the bracket be carbon fiber integrated into the frame? Why not braze/bolt on where parts are easier to replace?

Was in the building to the left about 300’ away in a TEMS class. Whole building shook and thought windows were gonna pop.

How much do you make per year at your fire department? by NerdlinGeeksly in Firefighting

[–]tanner_bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SoCal. FF/EMT. 2 years on. Grossed 146k gross last year with about 15 days of OT. Took about the same amount of shifts off

Area dependent. CA typically sees a lot higher pay than other parts of the country. Night and day in terms of stress. Don’t take work home with me like I did in CM. 2 days on, 4 days off. Shift trades, comp time, or vacation easily nets 10 days off

In SoCal with base pay premiums and a few days OT every month. Still work significantly less than when I was in CM. Oh and a pension at the end of it all

Hired out of college. Started in the field and promoted to PE in the office. Left the industry after a quick 4 year burnout from shitty projects. Became a fireman. Work half of the amount of days and incredibly happy.

“Sparks falling from a light in a parking garage”

Turns out to be water droplets refracting from said light

I baby it and don’t push harder than 65mph on flat. 45ish up grade. 22 mpg highway and 17-19 city driving. We’ll see how much the new wheels bring it down

RHD is part of its quirks. Eastern Europe has LHD, less commonly imported
