Put in 41.25 hours this week, Tim. Liking it so far. Foreman is happy with my performance and is already talking about moving up the ladder.

Yup! Trying to get my state inspector's license as soon as I can. My job title should be changing soon from "lube specialist" () to "line technician"; hoping a small raise comes with that.

I'd just love to get the pay raise that comes with the license!

We're supposed to get a new building sometime in the next year or two, which is a good thing, because our current one isn't too great. Big windows so the customers can stare at you working, too low of ceilings, bad flow, etc.

ok dave (Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums - View Profile: davbell22602) rocks - just came over to help me try and get the water pump and clutch fan replaced - unfortunately we have a broken bolt in the water pump to deal with before we can replace it so that will wait till another day - time to go buy a gallon of water or six lol.

Those darn bolts like to seize up in the timing cover. That's why I borrowed son's truck for trip down here. Meanwhile I've got to pull the timing cover on my 87 w/460. Use anti-seize on the threads and shaft of the bolts when putting everything back together.
You never know if you'll have to do it again some year.
