What have you been doing at work?

[Johnmn]

I know what some of you guys do for a living and some I dont. I think there is a what's your real job thread but this is a what your doing at work deal. I'm a carpenter mainly but log a little bit in the winter. I have been remodeling a house lately. House will get new baths, flooring,trim,doors, windows and siding. Started the hardwood today.

I've been cleaning up after my lazy slight Forrest Gumpish coworkers. Before and after pics of catch pan for the coating unit at work being cleaned. It's holding close to
70# of glue.

Oh the smell, the sweet sweet smell of something rotting.

Tough to find good help these days. My dad will be retiring shortly and I'm dreading trying to find someone to replace him

Yuck. I'm doing an oil cooler and turbo on the same car right now.

This has two blown pistons and took out the cylinder. Pays crap for tear down, assemble and r&r engine.

This is what i do at work. Cut a section of welds. Put into puck and measure on computer for weld penatration. This is from the new JL jeep launch. Lots of bad welds. They are much better now. Not real exciting but pays my bills.

Is that from a robot welder?

Jeep likely has children welding for them now... Have you worked on one of them lately.

Nope but I have seen a few GM G body chassis with some welds running parallel to the frame seems.

I rebuilt cars for a buy here pay here company. We do around 200 cars a month. With that volume, we see some scary crap. Rotted out subframes, destroyed connecting links, axle nuts rotted halfway off.... All on cars with less than 100k miles. I used to hate Fords.... Now I hate all cars equally.

Thank goodness the few I seen were being sent to the dirt track.

But yeah that's why I like working on saws on the side vs cars now.
