    • Welp - here we are again.

      Warning - Non-political but impassioned plea contained within.

      Just helped our CEO make an announcement that we are back over 100% capacity and are stopping surgeries again.

      "You are going to get to wait for that procedure [back surgery, etc] because we don't have a bed, because it is filled with an unvaccinated person with COVID."

      Unless it's a direct and immediate threat to your life...you're going to wait and hope you don't need the ICU.

      Thankfully my sister just had her shoulder surgery on Tuesday, though she was only in the hospital for a day.

      I think the last I heard was that we were are 92% unvaccinated COVID patients in the ICU.

      He said it really well.

      "I'm not impatient with the individual who has chosen not to get the vaccine, I'm impatient with the situation."

      Man alive, why are we back here...

      This isn't political, BTW. It's something that's uncomfortable to hear, but factual and benign in political nature.

      For those who are waiting to get it? Data's in - it's safe. Get the vaccine.
      For those who are holding out for some issue of pride or team allegiance? Suck it up, get the vaccine...those team leaders did a long time ago.
      For those with deep institutional distrust? What do you need as evidence to convince you? Who will you listen to? Will anything convince you? Seriously, I would love to know.
      For those afraid of needles? I'll buy you a sucker for when you are done and allow you to curse my name during the shot.

      FYI we are not treating and have not treated a serious case of vaccine-related complication. They are far FAR FAAAAAAR rarer and less likely (and less severe) than COVID.

      Yes, they do exist and it IS a potential risk. The risk is about the size of a pea in comparison to a full-ton diesel truck...with 5th wheel trailer when compared to COVID.

      The data will never be 100% clear, it never EVER is. The data is clear in as much as it can reduce decision uncertainty to a negligible amount. That's as good as you can hope for.

      Rant out

    • Expensive paper

      diploma.jpg

      YES!

      The single costliest piece of paper I've ever bought.

      I've been waiting for this. I realize it was always official, but now it feels OFFICIAL.

      Now to make it work for me!

    • Birthday was had

      I felt pretty good about it. Thanks for the good advice everyone. I basically just checked out of work and what those opinions mean to me and focused more on my daughter who with I share a birthday.

      20210610_154258.jpg 20210610_180046.jpg 20210610_180058.jpg

      Then cookout with a few friends and their families. It was nice to be hanging out with friends again and realized how much I missed it, even though it wasn't the pandemic that was the real factor.

      Thanks to the oppos that reached out as well. Much appreciated.

      If anyone was wondering, I got a new camp mattress for my gift. My wife must have timed the supply issues great because the price jumped way up since she bought it. I've been trying out different sleep systems for a while and never found something that worked, with lots of tossing and turning and or sore hips. This thing is nearly 5 inches thick and is air-supported. Looking forward to trying it out (maybe tonight).

    • RE: Oppo should be better to avoid this

      @notsomethingstructural I understand the heart behind this, but digital anonymity is a key tenet of any online forum, and while self-identifying has benefits it also has liabilities. I think its important that we respect people's interests in self-identifying online.

      @davesaddiction 5 years? Sure. Someone will be building and repairing Jeffy's Vans. Most likely it will be Jeffy. Create a huge order that can't be met, force them into bankruptcy, buy at a discount, now it's your store brand.

    • RE: Jeep people: discuss

      @Cash-Rewards My buddy I tour with and his brother both put on 33's on their trucks (Tacoma and Frontier) and neither of them have a 33 inch spare. They have the exact same tire size AND wheel pattern as me, and if they think they are getting my spare when they need it....

    • RE: Utah's new mandatory Off Highway Vehicle course.

      @pickup_man Can confirm this chart. I took a ride in a SxS with some people in Moab when I got in trouble mountain biking and I had to:

      1. Push the empty beer cans out of the way to sit.
      2. Navigate them down
      3. spot them to prevent them from rolling a THIRD time that day.

    • RE: Utah's new mandatory Off Highway Vehicle course.

      @Albino-Kangaroo said in Utah's new mandatory Off Highway Vehicle course.:

      It's hard to explain how loud these things are. It's made worse with the CVT in low range as you're spinning 6,000 and above RPM to do 15-20 MPH.

      I'm really super annoyed how these can be allowed on the street, but they are going to come after me for the smallest noise infraction. You aren't kidding, these are stupid loud and I have no idea why they are allowed to be other than no one told them they can't be.
