So Banks are telling people to 'Go Green' do your banking the 'Fast & Easy' way by banking online...

My bank sent me a letter saying that I do 'too much online banking' and that as of August 1st, I will be charged $30 per online transaction that is over my limit....

Time for a new bank.


I don't carry much cash, if any, anymore; I don't use checks, and I pay all my bills online. I thought I was living a fairly 'Green' lifestyle when it came to banking...
 
rant time...

this guy is F'in high if he thinks his abused D30 and WELDED 35 are worth $750. first off, the 35 will go strait to the scrap pile. second... its WELDED, and you broke a shaft, and cant even put to rest my concerns of the gear set being effected in the process. are the gears factory or who geared it? dumb redneck cant even answer any of my questions. and thinks "one month old TREs" are worth what they were new... which he payed way too much for. dude... ive got 2 set of steering sitting in the back of my jeep, you can have them both if it makes you feel better. apparently parts dont depreciate in value down here. im going to replace it all anyway, i dont care. you cant even use commas or periods, and you expect me to trust your welds to a cast diff? and STILL havent shown me pics? if i did a good job... id be boasting about it.

someone please find me a shop willing to regear axles under the jeep in a timely manner.




and then there is this kook at work... i oporate a CNC mill. there are two "pallets" that revolve, one gets machined while the other is unloaded/loaded. if your fast enough, you have down time to do what ever you want. the kook next to me always seems to be sitting on his arse. so is started watching him to figure it out... i am SICK AND TIRED of seeing already machined parts go back into the mill. its easily 1 our of every 10. get off of your fawking phone, words with friends is not that important. and here i am busting my arse? he was boasting to the foreman that he did 31 loads in 2 hours. really bro? my machine will do 11 in 58 minutes... i timed it. so i can ALMOST get 23. please explain... no need to explain, i saw how that number was reached. he was dorking with the deburring tool, and kept running just that cycle on the same pallet. every time it finished, the work counter went up. dont feel the need to reset it? and i STILL have higher numbers at the end of the night. the part that pisses me off is that i am sure he gets payed more than i do.
 
Hubs answered this better than I was going to :thumbup:

After ALOT of reading yesterday, I think I have it figured out, I think. :D I guess I either have to buy that adapter plate or go with an aftermarket header which I cannot afford for quite some time. Looks like I will be driving the van for awhile as an aftermarket header is around $300.00-$400.00 or the adapter plate and two gaskets that will cost me $200.00 and then a custom exhaust on top of that.
I should just sell this jeep and get a 99 or older, this shit is pissing me off!!
 
saw something on the news this morning about a fire in reed city...

know anything about it Kman?

some abandoned crap hole, it didn't have power running to it. They think somebody lit it up.

Horizontal mill, that's what i program and set up everyday. I am guessing union shop? Pull your foreman or supervisor aside and say that you know this guy is running parts more than once. Have will do a manual weigh count on his parts and compare to his counter. That WILL F up the inventory, They should bust him for it eventually. We had people pushing the air buttons on Drill presses numerous times during the cycle to boost their numbers up. But I don't work in a Union shop either.

That is nuts, what bank is it? The bank I work for wants people to use more online. That doesn't make sense, and you should find a different bank.
 
correct, horizontal... i just got off of a 12 hour shift. lol.

no union to my knowledge... but i could be mistaken.

its a summer job for me, so i have little use or care for union/nonunion shenanigans. but guess who i live with, my uncle, THE OWNER.

the night foreman plays dickgrabber... i mean words with friends with him all night. they have got to be gay for each other... while me and the other new guy bust our ass. the other guy more than me, im not giving up my lunch break. lol. but the foreman is a complete fawking moron. reminds me of someone i worked with in mount pleasant. same build and attitude. i just want to hire a 12 year old girl to kick him in the nuts.
 
So there is someone within our local wheelin group that has been looking for a nice XJ that's already built to do some wheelin. I found out about this accidently last night. Now I have a nice XJ that's already built to do some wheelin and its for sale. One would think the "buddy" that told me this would've suggested my XJ. Nope instead he told him to stay away from it cause the floor boards had been replaced and it was "sketchy."

I'm firm at $3500. Selling it for less would be giving it away. Includes spare axles and drive shafts all the way around.

Yeah dan, that's what I said.

So, the person buying hasn't bought anything yet...but has been close. I sent him 15 photos and info on it. Told him he could take it and drive it for a couple days if he wanted to. He's looking for something to wheel and be able to drive on the street if necessary, but not a daily.

Its still forsale til cash exchanges hands if you are reading this and are interested, PM me.

mac 'fingers crossed' gyvr
 
And the hits just keep on coming. Another storm rolled through around 0400 this morning, but only dropped an inch of rain on me. 15 miles to the north.... that's another story. While avoiding a parking lot on the highway, I saw quite a few buildings with severe damage, one farm lost both their cement stave silo as well as the barn. And dozens of electrical poles snapped off at the base. Took me 90 minutes to get in to work this morning.

That is some real crap man.

BRB, going to buy an overpriced xj from CL with hidden rust, and in a few months i will have to replaced floor boards and do a worst job, when i could have bought a much better jeep with everything done right and come with Rustys transfer case skid :twak:



well mac i hope this dude is smarter than your friend
 
It is so dry here, even if rain is in the forecast, it disapaits before it gets here because it is so dry.

my hope is that the junk he's looked at and almost bought is proof enough that the $3500 I want makes it a smokin deal.

Nearly everything out there is full of rusty floor boards and rockers.

mac 'lol on the skid' gyvr
