In addition to everything else I have to do being the only returning De-Icer at a 3-person station, Iām also our part-time mechanic. And we have a pile of crap that wasnāt fixed last year because the local guy they hired as the mechanic was an idiot and actually broke more things than he fixed.
Plus training in the 2 new guys they brought in. Plus Delta management canāt get their shit together, so Iām the only one on the roster allowed to spray their planesā¦
One heavy ice day, one snow day, and a couple frost days so far, so been making plenty of $$ for the company.

Was actually pretty good todayā¦ we have to call airport OPs to open containment before we spray. Got several fines (like $8 grand worth) last year, and a threat to pull our airport contract if we did it again.
Spent 10 minutes chatting with Skywest pilot this morning sitting at the pad because OPs wasnāt answering their phone to open containment. Hoping Skywest/United mgr throws their weight around and yells at OPs for us.
Heh, nice thing about me being our MX, I actually bumped up the speeds on my truck. So now she drives/turns/booms just a wee bit faster

His Mayhem backpack video are good if youāve never touched one, but he doesnāt do anything other than āhere is this menu and here is that oneā. Some of his videos are good, but it seam to more and more becoming advertising for whatever product he is demoing (seams to be a recurring trend on YT ā¦ LPL comes to mind 
)
Michel Ossmann made some great videos on it (hackRF One), but I donāt quite get 100% of the nuances because I donāt quite know all the nuances of modulation and signal processing ā¦ The more I digg, the more I realize how little I actually understand on the stuff I use everyday

Currently revisiting my, āFuck it, Iāll just moveā plan. It may or may not just be a mood, weāll see.
Thoughts on where?
Parameters.
Want nice year round weather.
Reasonable cost of living.
I work as a CNC machinist, but Iām not married to it.
Hate big cities.

nice year round weather usually comes with pretty devestating chances of natural disaster.
Hurricanes, earthquakes, Tornados. at least in the US.
