Morning all! Looks like after today, the heat wave eases a bit. That'll be a good thing for the employees out on the floor! Single story building in the city, large flat roof, large furnaces - from May - October it gets pretty hot and stays pretty hot.

Russ, pool area looks great. You did a great job.

Thank you.

Work in a power plant. The turbine building and the boiler feed pump buildings would be 115F in the winter. Summer time, you would just pass through and be soaked in sweat.

115 in winter is pretty nuts.

Here, they open the bay doors in winter (the furnaces are on that side) so it stays manageable. Summer, it'll be 120 degrees in there every day. Most of the HT crew comes in around 5 am and tries to get loaded before noon. Director of Mfr lets them leave if they are done loading, to try and keep them from roasting.

I honestly dont care WHY it failed. It wasnt a particle coming through the filter or bad installation- JC probably better not read that part lol.
The fact they said eat a bag of dicks when I reached out to them is what pissed me off and the fact Sasha didnt bother to at least say let me check into it. No messages, no calls, no emails or texts. Then he is buying turbos and had called them 3 times ect ect. Uh, how about clue me into this ****? Wouldnt have spent another $3k+ to fix the issue.

The whole "I'm buying you a turbo out of pocket" is a last ditch effort to save face and nothing more. He knows he dropped the ball and is now, after doing nothing for months until it was public, taking action.
