Of course there is no way to ever know what the scenario was but I believe they specified the right thing but that was not what they received. Of course they would have tested some and they may have passed but there is a limit to how often they can check every single component of a car.
They had no idea that they spec'd X but were receiving Y until they started to fail and somebody checked again and said "たわごとこれらは正しくありません"

Another lovely day in Montreal. Dealing with wind gusts of up to 100kmh. Have made the decision to not get to work until the wind dies down. Starting to get frustrated with all the delays due to weather. But it’s hard to say no to what equates to free money for showing up to work.

Not squirming. You are wrong I just can't prove it.

Bit of a life change for me coming up... Just accepted a new job and moving from LA to Newport Beach. Selling my house and going to rent an apartment near my new office for a bit. This means no more 20k miles a year commuting and no where to work on cars/bikes... Not sure what this will all mean for my 86 and motorcycle...
Considering maybe selling the motorcycle as they are a pain when living in an apartment complex and getting a new car for work / making the 86 a dedicated autox/track car. I know this is a good idea... just not sure if I'll really do it.

Also 100kmh is only 60mph... kinda reminds me when I get a $30 restaurant bill in Montreal and then realize that in Murica money that's only like $20

Well I sort of simplified the terminology but no they can be above ground. Not up in the air though. That would make your job more difficult if they were!

The fact that the pipe is adjacent to a recycling facility where we were going to work today. The amount of flying debris I saw told me that it wasn’t worth getting smacked in the back of the head by something.
