Another reason not to visit a 3rd world country!!!  

Sorry, I'm sure you are safe there though!!!

That procrastinating won't get you out in the dunes on maybe the last nice weekend of the season.......ugh

You bet, imagine have 1/4 of the appetite you have now. That's how it works, you're just not hungry. No way you can even eat 1/2 as much as you normally can. Only rub is the price, $1k every 6 weeks.

Maybe cheaper as you save on all that food!!!!

left hand was full, used right hand to reach over to get keys out of left pocket, pinched nerve, in hell for a week!

My .02$

Slime - nasty corrosion

sta-Flo -seemed to flake off and clean up good with a scotch brite pad 

I’ll never use slime again unless emergency!!

Kyosho ultima (which was my first "real" rc car i got in 86) 

Me too and my dad had to build it and there were a ton of parts for some reason(in comparison to todays) 

Started 17 with a 73 going for a PR! 17 got a 7 and 18 an 8!!!ugh still a great round in the 80's. (San Marcos Chandler)

I use to joke about how my rc car hobby cost more than my old VW sand rail hobby. It wasn’t’t a joke. Then I learned to fly an airplane, only had to fix it (replace it) 3 times. It was nicer going and flying a ton of times and just 100% fun.  Got out of it before electric really took over.  
 

I would like to find one of these new tiny cars that I can drift around my desk at work tho!!

So far only about 30 days duning (good amount of miles) Missed the first outing in Oct. (too hot). Veterans rolled on the trailer with a trans noise. Took it out and over to KM for service. He had it done and ready so I was able to make Thanksgiving the following week. Other than that drove the car off the trailer and back on every trip. No issues!  Hopefully 1 more trip weather dependent. A guy told me @Funco4Me “if no repairs, time for an upgrade”!! 

 

Rent from HERTZ and get there with time to kill!

Just saw some vague mention of it.  Something happened outside the Beach Store?

I think she was on a ride or two last Memorial day (Think she was with a guy on a dirt bike) Anyway had a blast and my 2 little girls looked up to her as a confident woman who rips on a quad and they want to be that also(win for me)!!!

I wouldn't make it 5 minutes in these places you all work at. 

And another one. If they reach back out I’ll keep you updated. 
 

is the 350 seat the same you think?

I’m waiting to hear from a guy close me too that I saw on Facebook and told him the scenario 

I think they would accept the package

Just an idea. 

You would still need to find someone to pick it up and bring it to you but there’s two raptor 250s for sale on craigslist in the Northwest area of Phoenix, Maybe you could talk one of them into renting you the seat for the weekend or if you’re gonna buy a new one anyway and can’t get it in time out there, for the same price and show them that’s being shipped to your door they’ll have a new seat to sell for their quads

logistics will be rough

Was lucky enough to camp in Glamis over the weekend. Weather was perfect and dunes were nice and smooth.

Yes they were, finally!

I have 2 employees and both share the same last name with me, so I'm biased AF. You've met them.

My son hit me up late last year saying he's been at the same pay rate for the past two years. Cool story bro. What are you doing now that's different from two years ago? Do you have your CDL? Any certificates or new licenses? He had no answer. Earn it fugger. Advance your career through education/schooling or some kind of certificate. Seriously brah.

So I gave him a $5/hour raise to shut him up. Parenting and bossing 101. But that 21 yr old and me are gonna have a talk very soon about rent and utilities. And his company fuel card. Bro, your girlfriend lives 50 miles away. That's my fuel, my tires, my insurance, my alllllll of it. 

Good luck!!! (Family, best and worst employees. Just trying to keep Thanksgiving dinner normal. lol)

I went to my previous boss with 3 pages of why I deserved a raise. Showing him the huge profit gains manufacturing instead of rebranding (50% to 500%). Saving money going out the back door and bringing in new business accounts through the front door. He proceeded to tell me how pissed he was because everyone else just expected there 3% yearly (I was asking 35%). I did all the math and I was no where near greedy. He turned out to be so I left (couple people followed). He is expanding pretty big, good for him. I went to someone that is not greedy, making what I’m worth but feel guilty sometimes about how much it is in comparison to other employees.

hang in there. 
 

so I have the luxury of telling my employees that if the company does better you will do better. We can always grow. I told them just today let’s find waste/inefficiencies within the company, which sometimes is like gaining a couple new accounts. 
 

I’m finally heavy on my mechanics side (which is a nightmare to find) but they put them self in that position by being lazy and knowing they are hard to replace. So payroll is more expensive. But previous guys stepped up when new guy arrived and it’s working out. No raises for them right now.period

days guys. Loyal. Always trying to find ways to get those guys more. 
 

night guys. Fly by the hour people, revolving door. Longer than a few months of employment. I don’t want to lose them and bare minimum is great. 
 

I think bottom line is and (I’m not the owner) that we are here to be profitable and make money. Like previous post, leverage is crazy at a skilled level. 

Richard, 

Offer will always stand! You need anything you think I could help with you let me know. Thanks for adding a chapter to my book!

Wash 6/7 is closed this week. Just fyi.
