Wayne, those covers are simply not available. They do show up on Ebay every once in a while as new old stock. The good news is they made millions of cars that use the same part. The local junk yards list over 30 of them. I will go pick up an entire wiper motor and cover for $35 bucks and have a spare.

I posted a followup on my thread about looking for the part. I bet someone is in the midst of getting the proper legal rights to make them again and they will be back on the market someday soon.

I ran the kids to school as you were typing in the other thread. No matter, sounds like it may be resolved.

I spent some of today locking in 4 blokes for the epic 2015 Alice to Perisher ski trip.

In 12 weeks, it's our version of Hot Tub Time Machine. :D

Allergies are so bad that they've been a complete distraction from me doing work yesterday and today.

I having such a difficult time focusing, never mind focus on outbound cold sales calls....

I have Friday off. Time to submit some resumes. Get some pics of the 911 to get it posted and get a few other things cleaned out of the garage to make some room.

that does not sound good. did I miss something?

No, I just don't have the time to work on the 911 and we have a bunch of stuff we don't use so it might as well go on CL.

As for the job, it has been coming for a while. When management would rather you give the impression of doing something rather than spend the time doing it either because of a power trip or because they are IQ challenged it makes for a difficult work environment. I have been doing this for over 25 years, I think I can find a place that is less corporate. The best job I had only had two things I didn't like. It was in the wrong state and they couldn't make payroll and I had a family to think of.

ahh. well good luck. after years of working here I think I'm stuck. 20 years of "jack of all trades master of none" and all the jobs I have been looking at on the local front all want one thing. lots of experience in one type of drafting only.

I left my first job after my payroll check bounced once. After it bounced I would drive right to his bank and cash the check and then go deposit it at my bank.

That and when I asked him to have at least 12,000 per year as a salary he said no. I moved to Oklahoma City and started a new job at 12K. I am up to over 18K now! :p

I worked there for 27 years before the digital camera changed the photography world forever.

Fortunately I have a pretty wide range of skills from coding to network architecture to AD/Exchange and so forth. I enjoy coding and worked with assembly before I had a drivers license but I don't like the long drawn out projects. There are some jobs out there that are smaller businesses that would still pay well. There is also a bank and hospital that would work out. I am a HIPPA officer so I have that going for me if the hospital thing looks like a job I would like. I have also been taking courses in IT Security plus the bank sends you to classes specifically on banking. We will see how it goes. I have a meeting with my boss on Wednesday. She is young but she is not the problem person here and has a grasp of how things work. Those people work in a different department. Sorry for the rant.

Has anyone seen the new Avengers movie? We might see it Friday afternoon.

Just found out a friend of mine that helped the local home-school group with the STEM Competition won this year. His son was one of the group and I know two of the others in the group.

I forgot the link to the challenge. Sorry.

Aviation Design Challenge 2015 | Fly to Learn

It sounds like to are just too smart for the American Workplace.

I was told I was too good at too many things and that it's not what I say or how I say it, but I make people feel stupid.

I met a guy at my gym who was part of Op. Gothic Serpent...

new dance club.......used to be the snake pit?

The missus and I saw it on Monday evening. Very entertaining, lots of action and full of one liners. It's unusual (but good) to laugh so much during a sci-fi.

Maybe Marvel is getting everyone ready for Deadpool, That's about all he speaks in is one liners.

We liked the first movie. Even the littler one.

Something like that.....except that the club is in downtown Mogadishu

I am not big on night clubs but anything in Somalia is right below my list of places to go under Syria and ISIS headquarters.
