  • It really does lol. I wasn’t too concerned about this project and have been focusing on the next phase plus a few other projects in the pipeline, but knowing this really helped. My mom is having surgery tomorrow so I’ll have to take care of her for the next few days, plus my wife’s car was throwing some nasty codes that had me stressed. At least now I know work is in a good place as I take a few days off to take care of my mom and tinker with a car.

    Edit: If anyone has any tips for doing a piston soak on a KIA 1.6L engine please let me know. I am not the most mechanically inclined but can follow instructions from repair docs and YouTube videos. My friend who usually helps with my repairs is busy this weekend, but has confidence in me to do this after watching/helping him with DIY repairs over the years. Plus I can justify buying tools lol




  • Sometimes calls work out in your favor. I’ve been sending emails and messages to a guy for a few days with no response over his new device and remote desktop issues. When I finally reached out, he was having work done at his house and had to keep stepping away to talk to the construction workers. Got to stretch a 30 minute fix into half a day of billable hours.

    I would much rather him just follow the instructions on the email, but it’s an early Friday for me.

    Edit: got to finish up some project work while on hold and now my day is free after hitting my magical ticket hours for the day. Fuck this job lol
