I'm retired now, but after 43 years in IT, I've worked with more people than I care to mention that couldn't find their ass with both hands. I'd love to tell you it'll get better but in my case it never really did, as there's always that one person. The good news is my coping skills did get better.

Was up at my summer property a few weeks ago and could not believe how dry the ground and forest was already. We normally have near freezing temps at night that time of year, but we had 30C+ days and 16C+ nights. Allergies combined with hazy air makes my sinuses feel wonderful! |

We're in a pretty solid drought here right now. It's been a weird spring. Allergies have been destroying people. Ticks have been out of control too. Pretty much done with hiking til the winter. Good times. Quote:

Sorry to hear that above from some of you. Spring this year in NC has been absolutely amazing. The coolest weather from March - June that I've ever experienced in over 20 years of living here. Given that I view any weather above 85°F as pure misery, it's been heaven for me. Record low energy bills, windows open all the time, and can do yard work or wrench in the garage without looking like I fell into a body of water.
Tip top!

just walk through any parking lot, and look at tire wear. if you can find 3 cars with normal tire wear anymore, it's odd.

If my s/o ever agreed to something like that (since she insists only the dealer can change her oil) I'd call her a turkey. |

Sorry, but I just bust out laughing reading this
I know the pain too. Quote:
My boss brought his mom's car to work a couple weeks ago, starter was on it's way out and she took it to a shop. They quoted 600 minimum + the starter to change it. She was going to pay it too We changed it in the parking lot at work in about an hour with hand tools.
