Leg ham, where are you at now? 

Arrived in osaka this morning. Its been an intense day. No sleep during the flight, then pickup hire car (mazda supremacy equivalent). GPS with english functions is just that lol driving is soooo different here. We're not prepared for it at all. Lots of getting honked and running "red lights". Parking is a bitch. My first non-english speaking country and im struggling, but im sure itll get easier with each day.

Osaka auto messe tomorrow!
Decided i dont want a jap waifu. I had it in my head that jap culture was noticeably different from other asian countries, but im noticing (and people are saying) no, not really.

Japan, ooh exciting!

I'm sure you'll be fine driving in Japan, I survived Europe whilst drunk, jet-lagged and steering wheel in wrong side of the car. Did 200+ on Autobahn the next day, so yeah you'll be fine since you're driving the same layout as here.

It's just shit like this. Lots of turning lanes, no lines to show where to stop or edge of intersections etc. Because there's no where to park, people just pullover and chuck their hazards on.

Whats a public high school teacher get paid out of curiosity? 

Currently in the mix for an IT role at a high school managing their infrastructure ~1300 kids but recruiters initial salary rate was stupidly low, hoping I can sway them up once I meet or he's wrong.. he said might be hard as they have tight budgets (a few minutes after he said previous IT guy kept blowing a few hundred thousand on IT projects..?)

Found some old rates on google, but all the different levels etc no idea about.

Yikes.

Just follow the locals. That's what I did in Europe, was mega fun in Autobahn and Autostrada.

Why would a teacher's salary be relative to that of someone in the IT department?

Its not, just curious and if they give me the 'don't have budget for that' I can put it into perspective 

Plus it would just be me and 1 other guy, and yeh definitely not 100k if the initial chat was anything to go by, although I'd be happy to take less than what I'm worth if I can take 12 weeks leave ;)

Other than that have an interview coming up at a security company which looks promising anyway, I'd rather the school though I reckon. Hopefully get 2 offers to pick from by the end of next week.. fingers crossed

Actually both of these roles were all done by me, one through seek applying direct to them. The other (school guy) I sent an email to I saw him a couple of years ago, which the job fell through in the end but kept his details.

Also got a potential interview at an IT company from recruiter (who contacted me through seeing me apply on seek) although I don't want to work at an MSP again it's my 3rd choice currently.. 

So kinda doing both + pulling some of my own contacts

note that 100K is contract, so there is no 12 weeks leave... if you take leave you don;t get paid, same for sick leave and such. and there no redundancies they can jsut not renew your contract. Not sure if Super is paid either never asked that.

 

so that has to be taken into consideration.

Contact work is higher paid but much less safety net I would basiclly equate 75-80K salary job to 100K contract.

Getting loans and such is also more of a PITA with contract.

 

that said If I ever leave my current work I'm going to try do some short term (3 monthish) contracts to try new things after 16 years in one place.

The other thing you need to be aware of working in a school is you are going to see shit you don't want to.

your managing computers that the kids take home this is not a corporate lifestyle,

You come across porn, help track distribution of pics and videos of students and make reports to the school, he has had to take a few things to the police after finding kiddie porn and similar.

 

think:

      Engine Issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.

      Engine Issue

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that).

      Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point

      Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
