front landscaping project to replace the storm-damaged stuff scheduled for this coming Wednesday (the 20th)
new garage door and lift scheduled to go in Friday the 22nd
hounding my door and window guy to get the other garage stuff done the following week so we can roll the Morgan in for July
seems odd not having a hotrod in the garage
Had a guy in shorts and a tank top pass me on an old, rough looking sport type bike on Hwy 10 in Caledon this evening. I was doing about 90km/h. I'm guessing he was doing about 180km/h. I wonder if karma will visit him soon.
Wanted to give a big thanks to Frank for helping me tonight and for letting me keep him working until nearly 11.
I needed to install 2 rear o2s sensors (middle of the car) and my jack won't let me get the front high enough to get back that far.
Frank invited me over to use his lift, and we soon found out the wires were too short.
While extending the wires he changed the front two sensors, figured out how to secure the wiring and made everything look much nicer then in sure I would have.
Car drove great back home, light stayed off and should be good for the e-test Sat. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1532f42c3f.jpg

I need to go home and sleep.
I'm usually at the office at 6:30am, I work fast so I pretty much finish what I need to by 10am and the rest of the day is pretty much just hanging out and doing nothing... well I'm taking my PMP courses and then CBAP designation exam prep too (finished those courses)... I do a lot of reading on leadership and psychology here too and the rants online LMAO...
I wish companies encouraged people who work well... Instead we have to hide our efficiency. I just let enough of it out to make myself look good. Before getting into leadership, I was working maybe 10 hours a week as I automated or streamlined a lot of processes and my reviews were always around 95% despite being a major slacker. In the past, I used to share all my findings and all it did was punish me. I remember making a software that automated campaign building for marketing. It saved me about 10 hours per campaign. What happened? My boss had me doing 5x the work my role would normally do. My salary stayed the same and he got promoted because "so much output from a small team"... Fuck that noise, I learnt my lesson.
But I go against the grain in an office where the average age seems to be in the 60's... I unplugged my office phone and changed the voicemail to "don't leave a message, please email or txt [cell phone]"... I'm trying to convince the company to turn off all voicemails, it's stupid and eventually no more emails between staff unless absolutely necessary, start changing behavior to use chat and chatbots. My team is using Slack.com to communicate although I'm moving towards o365 Groups/Teams for that and removing some software we use to track time as we're a cost recovery department. I calculated we will save about 5 hours of total employee time per day using an "exception rule" which automates about 95% of the billing and this causes less friction for the day-to-day operations for employees.
We were promised 3 day work weeks with the invention of the computer lol I think they said the same about the type-writer and now they're saying the same with AI... lol
That would all depend on the industry. Computers increased the work for appliance repair techs tenfold. Lol
