fast food joints asking you to park and they'll bring out your food is the worst!

Fixed.

I had a similar issue with a car I had. It turned out the ignition switch/wiring was failing. I didn't figure it out until the switch failed completely, and replacing it fixed the intermittent "stops running" issue. One of the weirdest things I've seen.

I had a similar issue with my Malibu. How heavy is your key ring. The problem I had diagnosing it was I just had a key and remote and never had a problem. My wife had a collection of E36 M3 and a good bump would jiggle the switch slightly and cause it to turn the car off.
Me: I need some information to bid on this project. No spec was provided for the sliding automatic doors at 101, 102, and 103. Can you send me that information? In your specs and in the hardware schedule you list a swing door operator. There is nothing in the door schedule or hardware groups to tell me which doors get swing door operators. Can you provide me that list as I would like to bid those as well?
Contractor: The doors are listed on A25 of the plans, the specs are on page 08-71-13.
Me: Yes, I see that. However, as I stated above, your Door Schedule lists 3 automatic sliding doors at 101. 102, and 103 and zero swing door operators. Your specs, on page 08-71-13 are for a low-energy swing door operator and provide no information on the sliding doors, hence my questions. To provide pricing for this project I will need this information.

$601.50 for insulin. With insurance. That costs me $750/month.

It's a weekly meeting of everyone at the management level. Therefore, it's a "management meeting". Or you could call it a "department head meeting".
I refuse to call it an "L10".
In reply to Beer Baron :
Excessive jargon is stupid anywhere, but it's especially insipid in the corporate world.
I remember telling my old boss one time, "Computers interface, Bob. People talk to each other."
In reply to Duke :
We should circle around and touch base on that down the road...
It's further frustrating, because we're not even a big corporation. We're a small craft brewery with maybe a dozen employees. There is no need for corporate jargon.

Call it L7. See if anyone gets it.

Having a Mr. T Starter Kit on the ignition key is also a great way to damage the lock cylinder, too.
Jacked up one of my knees dashing down 2 flights of stairs (this house has too many berking stairs) to get outside to try (unsuccessfully) to stop The Bat from yet again eating her own poop. Now I can't find my knee brace, and am probably not going to be able to go in and swim tonight (well, I could but it would most definitely not be enjoyable).

What's this L7 on the schedule Friday afternoon? Oh, that's where we pretend that we're dead.

FYI, a good practice is to have aircraft keys on a quick release to prevent excessive weight:
In reply to RX Reven' :
I only have my car key and a house key on my car's key ring. Everything else is on a seperate one.

Finally a response.
"RFI for this has been submitted."
That wasn't so hard was it?

Kids in cars. It's not a playground, it's 3,000lbs of machinery.
Last summer at a picnic a guy put his 2 year old in a car and let him do the wheel, flick the buttons etc. "He likes it". OK, but what happens when the owner gets back and sees a radio knob broken off or kid puke on the seat, you gonna handle that? "That won't happen". I think a car is a useful tool, a machine and should be respected. Kids should learn respect for other peoples' stuff. Guy just rolled his eyes and put the kid into another car; neither of these were his BTW.
This morning I took the dog for a walk and see the babysitter next door in her car on the street. When I came back she's still there, I ask if she's OK and an almost 2 year old pops up behind the wheel. "Fine, we're just playing".
Am I wrong in thinking a kid in a car is not so safe?
In reply to 914Driver :
If it's your car, and you want to let your kid play in it... whatever. Just be sure they can't take it out of park.
Putting a kid in someone ELSE'S car without their permission is wrong.

You're not wrong.
When I was 7 or 8, I was at a friend's house, and his mom told us all to pile in her VW Microbus to go for ice cream. Driveway is a 7% grade, street at 90* is a 5% grade. 2 year old jumps in the front seat of this van full of kids (mom is still in the house) and kicks the parking brake handle... and we all go for a ride, backwards down the hill for a block before coming to a stop in a neighbor's driveway when we hit a parked car. We were lucky no-one was injured...
New jeep rant, more about Chrysler and my own ignorance. Apparently Chrysler still has the functionality to display codes by cycling the key on/off several times. I last used that function when cars were OBDI and I had to count how many times a light flashed between long pauses. If I had realized this was an option I may have saved myself some time and money, or not.
This showed a code P0884 that my NT630 and Bluetooth scanners didn't show. Googling that code shows it's related to the TCU having voltage issues, and in some cases it's been resolved by rerouting the ECU harness away from the coils. I'm not confident, but it's worth a try.
The key ring is pretty minimal, and the small key for the ski rack is a temporary addition from last week. The second key for the jeep is even more minimal with just a single house key.
914Driver said:Am I wrong in thinking a kid in a car is not so safe?
It depends. Is it a 2 year old with the keys, or is it a 10 year old without the keys pretending he's bombing down the highway?
I bought a a lot of parts cars over the years, some years as many as 20-25. I always let my youngest son play in them, and we had a rule. He could keep everything he found if he would help me strip them later. He was maybe 8 years old when we started that and it was funny when I pulled in the driveway watching him excitedly run out to the new car in hope of finding some treasure. He didn't know that I had a pretty good look inside first, but I always left the change under the seats. The same kid would come to the wreckers with me and play in the cars as I was getting my parts. If you ask him now, he remembers it as some of the best fun he ever had.
Motherberkeleyer. The trend of everything berkeleying breaking in 2024 continues with the dryer.... Sigh.
