Weird. Showed 27500 on work comp. Now 24499...lameaids.

I am guessing Col, as a moderator, deleted someone's earlier post, bumping himself to 27500

Morning Mangs.

Scarnon?

So, who's up for tavern night, and when?

Finished work yay. Days off yay. I'm in for the tavern night just not this weekend.

Morning all.... work's bullshit as usual.

Trying to sell my bloody 400r front bar & a 4inch autotechnica exhaust cannon if anyone's keen

Apologies in advance for the rants...

Rant 1:

F*CK customs! Finally got the bill back today, have to pay $157 for being $70 over the limit :). Meh, thats life, I was expecting to have to pay more. Payment options? Go to customs, or pay by credit card. Of course paying by credit card will incur additional surchages. So down to customs I go (it's at the airport so only 10 minutes from work anyway).

Me: I want to pay for this *hands over bill*

Them: Yeah no problem. Oh, you won't be able to take your parcel though.

Me: Why not?

Them: Well, we have to release it to australia post. Then they will deliver it to you.

Me: Deliver it to me? I'm right here.

Them: Yes, but we will release it to australia post, then they will deliver it to you in the mail.

Me: I'm right here. It's right here in this building somewhere. Surely it is cheaper and easier for everyone for you to just release it to me instead of australia post.

Them: I'm sorry sir, we can't do that.

Me: F*cks sake. Fine, let me pay...

*Pays customs*

Now I have to wait for aus post to f*cking deliver the shit. AND they will probably want to charge me for storage now since customs has taken so long to do the paperwork... May or may not get my shit by the weekend.

F*ckers

Rant 2:

Why the f*ck can't people walk and talk at the same time? Really, it's not that hard. F*cking groups of herpa derpas walking along blocking the whole corridor, and walking at a snails pace. FFS, I don't care if you want to talk, but walk at a reasonable f*cking speed.

*Disclaimer: This may only have annoyed me so much because I am already pissed off at customs...

Rant 1 is just retarded. Bureacracy at its finest. Rant 2, meh it kind of annoys me.

Had stupid amounts of drama this morning when the joinery guys didnt deliver the bench for the carpark attendant bay. The problem is the installer is a subcontractor of a subcontractor. So I have to chase up the first subbie. Turns out they haven't heard of it before. So then I have to go through the design team and contract admin people on our side. Mixed response with nobody really knowing what's going on. After all it's only a f**king benchtop. Turns out it was never included in anyones scope of works so now we have a 6 week wait. For a f**king benchtop. I won't be waiting 6 weeks though I'm finding someone else to do it lol.

Allo Mangs.

Also working Wednesday... also see Doc Martins post re: working everywednesday... :D

What a bastard of a week so far.... But, it will be over on Thrusday. Only 2 more days until I slide around in a WRX rally car :down::P

P.S. Wont be there on Thursday night......again. Have family arriving from Melb on Thursday.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
