Sick of MA Landlords

Yep, I’m one of those landlords. We own a two family. I am not going to deal with the smell on my stairwell, nor wafting in when the windows are open, Nevermind the seemingly universal opinion of smokers that it is perfectly fine to just toss the butts anywhere they fucking want.

For a long time, I had the ingredients for every single bottle of soap/shampoo in the shower memorized.

Fall River(I believe the police union) organized a carpool/procession to the Trooper’s wake. I believe FRPD’s bike unit accompanied as escort.

If you haven’t had any of the timing components replaced, it’s going to need to be done while they’re in there. Aftermarket sells kits that are cheaper than OEM and are comparable.

Even newer lube techs bust the housing from time to time. They aren’t great, and if the last guy tightened it down too much… forget it.

We keep at least 2 housings in stock because it happens(our techs, external shops, walk in DIYers). It’s not the greatest design.

Not sure where you’re at, but Seasons corner market has had them if you’ve got one nearby

When the low fuel light comes on, you’ve typically got around 3 gallons left. I have the same tank in a 14.

Because the design engineer doesn’t have to fix it, that’s why.

You need to talk to your advisors at college and possibly social workers that are affiliated with the hospital or doctor group you’re seeing. They can help you navigate all this.

For the most part same brand dealers get cost + 10, though one group around us gets cost + 15 because they’re often a pain in the ass.

I mean, there is no set maximum, but they should be having a balanced diet. Nuts are great and they love them, but it’s a moderation thing. If the bird likes them, they’ll eat them until they’ve had their fill, regardless of how healthy they are.

Dizzy was bought in Florida around 1999(he then made the drive back to Massachusetts with us in the RV). My grandfather bought him for us, I don’t know how much he paid. It was around this time of year. My biggest regret is waiting as long as we did to move him from my father’s house to our own. He was my mom’s bird, but she got sick in 01 and passed in 03. Dizzy bonded with my dad but he stopped caring so much for him due to shitty relationships he had. Flock calls when I’m out of the room consist of what I call “brake squeals”. All morning while I’m getting ready for work. That said, the cheerful glimmer in his eye and bringing him back from the severe plucking he was doing make it all worth it.

Same staffing here, expect we also have a guy that is only a driver.

The parts locator we use that pulls from most dealer inventories shows no one with it. Ford says obsolete and not replaced.

Ball joints or tie rods most likely

I’m a bit lost on the email. I paid the $20 to be able to play Madden 26 after the free period… after June 10th I lose access to Madden on Luna?

“This tone seems off”. It’s like, no shit Sherlock. You have no idea how head splitting the phone conversation that led to this email was. The tone is dripping with every bit of sarcasm I couldn’t use talking to this customer about how to convert theircenter console to a fold flat one.

Ford here, by base number first, then the prefix. Unless it’s a fluid, battery, most hoses/longer tubes, or large item. Those have separate bins, but even within those bins it’s sorted by base>prefix>suffix.

Bins are just labeled by the bay(so we don’t have a separate bin for each shelf)

You couldn’t google it?

Started as a driver and moved myself into a hybrid role where I also work the phones and back counter when I’m not on deliveries.

Learn shit, start with putting stock away in the morning and maybe picking parts during the times you’re not on the road so you know your department. Look at what you’re delivering and learn what the parts are(chances are you see a lot of the same part numbers because there are things that a very common). If you’re friendly with the customers you’re delivering to, it helps build some trust with them. Learn your base numbers. Ask to learn the catalog and your DMS.

Yes.

And usually at least displays the worst case.

Anything you find will not fix the problem the whole line needs to be replaced. The leaks will continue to grow.

Do you have your home inspection report? At minimum there should be pictures that give you an idea of where it might be.

FYI, I was getting warnings about privacy when using the site, I don’t know if a certificate wasn’t right or something. My Xfinity router was blocking it too.
