Boring times so maybe a highlight or 2. Usual hour workout at 9 am. Went out and swing the Superspeed clubs and my driver .

Spent the day with kids and grandkids at Sea World. Holy Shit. Some really good rides and excellent trained sea animal shows, and excellent food. Also included we're 4 gazillion rude, entitled people.......WTF happened to our society?

Typhoon hahahahaha!!!

Typhoon Tomorrow I start that awful job. Feels like I’m on death row. I don’t want to go to sleep tonite because when I wake up I have to go to the job. Happy fuckin New Year to me too!!

If you walk in to the door with that attitude you are doomed. Why even show up? It will be evident to everyone that you don't want to be there.

Typhoon

Rickochet You’re right on all counts there Rick.

Woke up to a tornado warning and confirmed sighting reported just 3 miles east of the house. Too soon to know if any damage yet. Thunder storms outside now, but radar makes it look like the most violent weather may have moved through in the past hour.

Sparky

johnnydoom Yikes! Stay safe. Had many close calls with Tornados in my 10 years in Kansas - nasty stuff.

johnnydoom

Sparky All clear here at the house for now. Not hearing any damage reports from the sighting east of here, so hopefully the folks out that way are ok.

I'll say it again. Make the best of it. Pretend it's fun. Be so good at it, they'll ask you what you want just to stay. Fake it until it feels good!

Typhoon Maybe you'll find that the people you work with are good, and that makes all of the difference. I can tolerate almost any kind of work, it's just the people I have to associate with that makes the work sour. It took me a long time, but I finally learned after a while to move to something new when the people around me start stressing me out with their politics and/or incompetence. Been really lucky for the past 15 years to work with people that I don't really fit in with, but that are tolerant of my style.

I've been outside most of the afternoon working on removing snow from my driveways and sidewalks. We got
about 7 inches of snow yesterday/last night and another 7+ inches this morning and early this afternoon. It was
deep enough that it made my little John Deer tractor with the snowblower work very hard. I hope my traction
drive belt holds out. I noticed that it had a couple of cuts in it when I was changing the belt for the snowblower attachment. It looks like it may be more difficult to replace that one. I got a little over half done with snow cleanup
before I decided to call it a day. It's still snowing lightly anyhow. I'll be back out tomorrow to finish up.

mulegolf Changing the drive belt on my Deere Tractor was a bitch. The routing…. I actually had to go to my neighbors house, look at his and draw a diagram of the belt and pulleys. It sucks. You might want to draw up a diagram of the routing incase it breaks.

WTF?!? I don’t want to hear about how you’re broke. 🙁

Ynotgolf

colej OK, 10 bars at $15, I've got $150.00.

colej

Ynotgolf

You should’ve charged a helluva lot more then that and you know it. 🙁

Ynotgolf

colej Hard to find a buyer for that size material. Larger sizes of any material can always be cut down to a size someone needs, with 3/8 thick you are pretty limited.

Youtube is your friend. You can also take a pic of it with your phone. 😜

I usually take a picture or two before starting the job for just that reason. My main concern it how to get at it.
It looks like there isn't much room for your hands to get the belt off and the new one back on. My wife says maybe I should just pay the price to have our local John Deere shop do it. I don't really like that idea because they are very
expensive. It would cost 3-5 times the cost of the belt just for labor.

Typhoon

Rickochet I took a video as well!

Rickochet Youtube is your friend.

I've been a student @ the University of Youtube for years!

Just drove 2 hours to meet up with another new guy and my boss ( who I’ve known for years). Depressing city out here, Walmart parking lot. If the govt wants to test a hydrogen bomb they should do it here.

KCee

Typhoon Are you in CT? 🤣

Walterjn

Well, in about 2 hours I'll be starting a temporary and part time job.
The one the boss kinda set up is needing me on the 14th to haul horses to a local show. Another friend has me in touch with someone who is looking for a hauler on the 9th. Only problem is both need me on the 15th, and I've already committed to the one needing me on the 14th.
Today, well today I get to go work in the rain at my little golf course. Most likely not getting paid anything for this, however free golf is a good thing.... I'll be able to play more often than I have been.
It's quite windy out right now, and yesterday afternoon the sheriff's office had their helicopter out flying over the riverbed telling everyone to get to higher ground for the next few days. Supposed to be a doozy of a storm....

Walterjn legally, they can't have a person "work", without being on payroll. Liabilities involved. Although California's bizzarro world/back assward anyway.
