Give me an online game of Calvinball. Still want to avenge the the time I lost 5 to R.

1955 Mack B-61. That twin stick quadruplex transmission is hard to master. Swore up a storm when I got the infamous “double nothing” every few shifts.

I do have a possible explanation. Back in B school, lean manufacturing was all the rage and everyone was pushing how far they could take just in time inventory. One case study was how Toyota and all their suppliers were in complete sync on all matters to shave seconds off production. All details on the cars rolling…

Agree.

I can only imagine how many hours are on that engine. I’m guessing this one did not have a genset. Once onsite, I am fairly certain the engine would stay on to power all the equipment. 2M miles is quite an achievement but add on all the hours idling and that beast is truly a mechanical wonder.

I did it once as a joke and it was awful. A person needs to be damn desperate for a drink to do it once then deliberately do it again.

Ummmm... fact check time. The dam was never in danger of collapsing. The emergency spill way was seriously compromised and a breech there would have been disastrous. The dam, however, was and still is structurally sound.

Appears http://www.isitdownrightnow.com/ is down.

I don’t see it as a retro cash grab so much as brand positioning. Nokia is still a well regarded brand outside the US. In emerging markets, folks will buy a Nokia branded phone as opposed to a brand unfamiliar to them. As the country grows more prosperous, people will continue to buy brands they know and trust, …

Are uber, Lyft, and other “ride sharing” companies essentially illegal gypsy cabs in most areas? Heck yea but I still choose to use their services anyway. My rides have always been safe, clean, courteous, available when I needed one, and no nonsense.

All credit goes to the office manager. She received many high fives for weeks after. Called many towing companies before she found one that would do it and even then had to leave a credit card on file to guarantee the tow.

Interlocks won’t work because the people hell bent against seatbelts will do what they can to defeat it. One guy at work loops the lapbelt and shoulder harness behind the seat and buckles it in to stop the alarm. As other have said, let natural selection take it’s course. For me, it’s such a habit ingrained in…

Not as crazy as some of the other stories but certainly got great revenge on a royal witch. At one company I worked at, employees were assigned parking passes to designate which lots they parked in. Earlier hires got the better spots and later hires got stickers that relegated them to lots further from the building.…

Not sure where you are located and what hiring responsibility you have but I manage several teams in California. The state have some of the strictest laws when it comes to employee classification. Everytime I open a new job req, I need to complete a checklist for HR which determines whether they are exempt or…

Your numbers are off if the calculation are for full time employees in CA..

I’ll never ride Uber again....................................... until the next time I need to get somewhere cheaper than a taxi!

LOL. Irony is one crazy bitch.

Tyler Rogoway please come back. FA articles have been painful to read lately.

I know the feeling well. All my projects have to take into account the extra cost of the WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) Tax.

Not a Trump fan and I can see folks guessing he will kill off all future wind farm projects. Based on my experience, all politicians are cut from the same cloth with both parties guilty of killing off projects. Cape Wind was effectively killed off by Ted Kennedy.
