He already knows that is the reason he does not like him. Younger guy trying to make a name for himself.
The second rear shock arrived yesterday afternoon for the Lightning. Noticed a front shock leaking when I was removing the driveshaft so I guess those are the next to get replaced.

If he has a managent degree it all book nothing pratical. I got my BBA and MBA in my late 30s early 40s with enough real world exprenince to back it up. Never used the MBA was retired shortly after getting it.
Go pickup tbe side by side today, already ordered a enclosure for it. Now if I just sell the golf cart. If not I may put it back together at 36 volt instead of 48 as I was planning. Shocks batteries and fwd/reverse switch is all it needs I think

I figured you were playing with your new toy and terrorizing the neighborhood. The guy started on my 4 wheeler last night so hopefully it won't take much or too long to get it fixed.
It took a little bit but I can't complain since I have only been working for them exactly 30 days yesterday. Updated my Linkedin profile this morning.
I got the driveshaft installed in the Lightning last night. It's raining here this morning and looking like rain for the next few days so any hopes of doing anything outside this weekend is pretty much shot. We plan on decorating our Christmas tree Saturday afternoon and it gives me time to install the sound bar and get ready for the Georgia game.

Could not play last night did not get back till after dark and Lexie wanted to go eat, just unloaded put in the backyard and dropped the trailer.
If I get back from grocery run in time I show her every thing on it, then she do a little play here. The real play will be after I get tge winch and enclosure on it and we get out to the hand.

Some the wood I brought home needs to be split. Our neighbor needs money so I giving him 20.00 to split it

The law of supply and demand at it's finest!!

About $1,400.00 for parts and labor to get the 4 wheeler running again. That's the roll off the trailer and ride price. The bottom end is pretty well shot but the good news is the cylinders and heads are in perfect condition. A heck of a lot cheaper than buying an already rebuilt engine or having the motorcycle shop fix it.

Wife said when he was splitting it was hinting for more money" damn this is a lot of wood for 20.00."

1400 to get the ATV running not bad. Is daughter going to get that one?

I knew he would say something about more money.
I am happy with price to get the 4 wheeler running again. The daughter is not getting any of the 4 wheelers when she moves out. She can come here and ride or borrow one but not keeping it. They break it, they pay to get it fixed. Decided that I am going to wait till spring and sell the boat.
I start on training on Monday as the service manager!! No more turning wrenches for a living!
