Hey fireball, can you check Recalls? When I talked to mitsubishi customer service today they said there was a recall and gave me the number. I talked to michelle to setup oil change/sunroof getting fixed and she said there wasn't one(if she even looked). It doesn't make sense why they would tell me I had a recall, give me the confirmation number and tell me to talk to a dealer.

I have no more line. The fittings I have are:

-6 180 degree
-6 45 degree
-6 to 3/8npt

I think thats all I have $35 for all of them.

Oh my I am tired as hell. I have almost 40 hours in so far just from sunday to today. I have been getting to work at about 4am. Saturday and sunday I didn't even leave, you got it all nighter. Thank god i found a password on my bosses computer so I could be online inbetween when they needed me. 12 more hours to go.

I try to do as little as possible. But I work at a plastics plant in New Berlin. I usually run machinery anywhere from plastic extruders, blow molding wheels. It involves A LOT of hydraulics (fluid dynamics is very helpful) pnuematics and a little electrical (not my speciality but I have enough knowledge to get by). We are setting up a new line and the customer is coming in later this week to see it. So the big push was this weekend since I just finished up the hydraulic pump (weighs about 1 evo). I wish I could take pictures of what I do. Employees are forbidden to carry cell phones (although I do sometimes) because of the cameras and visitors don't even come near the main floor. Although I had one of my friends with me once for about 3 minutes.

It's actually been pretty exciting that last few weeks because of the new customers and new projects that are happening. Today was the 1 year anniversary for safety on just on our shift (there are 3 other) The last person to get hurt got his hand chopped off by a mold that slammed shut (1600psi) OUCH, he is sort of back at work and everyone calls him lefty now , thank god he works on a different shift.

The work isn't hard just very stressful at times since we are in a production mindset. But they pay me pretty good which I guess makes up for all the yelling I recieve.

I guess thats my job sort of. Oh wait laymens terms. fabricator/operator/set-up tech

Sounds really interesting! Lot more interesting than my line of work! The only exciting thing I've done lately is setup a new citrix farm and yesterday we got a 4 proc 16gb ram blade server!

Morning fochers!!!

Got the doors back last night and I'm hacking up the wiring harness. There's no one here that is an electrician is there?

Sure, the only reason I haven't gotten one, I don't know anyone or shop that can properly build and tune one for my car. Well, RRM makes the kit, but $4,300 its kinda pricey if you ask me.
