They had diapers back then? I thought people of that era just rubbed some dirt on whatever bothered them!

No-no-no, we weren't ANIMALS, of course we had diapers.

Back on the farm, the boys diapers were pieces of old, wore out burlap feed sacks. The girls diapers were made from cotton, chicken feed sacks.

Iffen we got diaper rash, some hog lard was slathered on us.

Needless to say, we as babies, were anxious to get potty trained at a very early age.

First day back to work. I was hoping coworkers who I've assigned my project while on vaca would keep it maintaining til I came back... welp, I was wrong. I had 5 coworkers... FIVE!!!!! None of em couldn't maintain it. They told me, it's hard projects. Bitch plz, all the ones I've giving them are very simple projects that need attention every other day (maybe 15~30mins each). Now, I gotta catch up 3 weeks worth of stuff. I guess, like an old saying "If you want something done right, do it yourself" FML

I'll be pushing back on cleaning out Member Classified section later this week.

That sucks. I used to handle all our state and federal level certifications. When I quit they put it on another guy who had all my previous notes to go off of. Now that I am back I am stuck doing them and he didn't get half of them done. Good thing we didn't sell to California while I was gone.

Just like you, I've email and even trained/show how it's done before I left. I saw them taking notes... but I guess, email and notes doesn't do much.

Didn't see a whole lot of issues in the members section. Most were just old ones that were revived.

People who actually give a shit these days are few and far between. I may have spotted one last week but not sure. It was definitely tall and walking upright.

@spike021/Josh told me about the problem he's been having with his car where it feels like it's going to stall (with a quick flash of a CEL sometimes) after clutching in when coming to a stop sign/light. His datalog indicated that the port injection system is biasing a bit lean and that the injection is coming back online on deceleration a little late versus how it should be.

Today he messaged me and mentioned that he was at a tire shop and that they informed him that he had nails in both of his passenger side tires. Ah ha! I immediately knew what was going on with his car.

The rapid rotation of the metal in the two nails were disrupting the EM field and the ability of the TPMS sensors to reliably communicate with the ECU. As a result, a high amount of erroneous data was being received which meant the ECU had to increase it's use of error correction. This lead to it's internal CPU's timing subsystem being delayed. The delayed timing meant that the port injector idle fuel mapping is slightly slow to engage.

Boom, removed the nails from the tires and problem solved.
