Probably should have taken some photos but was busy,
Also replaced the radiator and aircon compressor idler pully.
Took me 7 hours to do since I didn't have the exact tooling I really needed so improvised a bit making it harder but still achievable
I have a Samsung TV outside and inside i have a TCL TV
Is there a way to get the Samsung free channels to play over a tcl tv?
I googled and found nothing but thought maybe someone knows better then me
I'm a millennial and think I got the perfect moment in history, school was only school no computers and MSN etc until highschool. There was no mobile phones until then too. (I mean for kids)
Consoles were still multilayer locally and there was no social media.
But we still had all the conveniences of modern life now apart from instant food delivery and streaming
Back in January we had a run in of break ins resulting in the work car being stolen from my house.
The thieves post on what I think is instagram about it and I have been sent these two photos. (Second in comments)
The main photo is from today so it appears I'm being watched after getting the car back
Any way of finding the account?
I'm having a baby any day and used to go to the pub to watch the footy with my mates.
Now moving forward I figure I can have mates over here to watch
Friday morning via Facebook thanks to my wife and the communities on there that are set up to find stolen cars we found my vehicle.
It was 240kms away crashed on the side of the road.
Unfortunately all of my tools were stolen they opened the boxes and removed tools draws and all.
They stole all of my consumables too.
Insurance is still assessing the car and my business insurance said the missing tools are car insurance problem because it's parked in a residential premises and are my personal property.
Car insurance will cover 1500 dollars or tools. Unfortunately I had around 50k of tools etc in my ute.
This weekend I spent 10k on tools and am obviously still far behind.
I have hired a ute and bought tools so I'm back to work now since I have no other options really, I need an income to support my wife while she has no job since she's on maternity leave.
I'm really only writing this to put some thoughts out, I think I'm having a rough time but it's just life. One for before the other and keep going you know.
I'm going to put up some photos of the car and perpetrator in the comments just so they're out there too.
G'day guys, not really a dull story unfortunately but I just wanted somewhere to vent my thoughts about the nights events.
I work for myself have for about 18 months, started my own heavy mobile mechanic company business has been good always busy etc.
My wife just lost her job due to being 9 months pregnant and they made her position redundant. So we are relying on my sole income from working for myself.
Stressful yeah but manageable.
Unfortunately that all brings us to tonight,
At about 0100 I hear my car start up and crash through my front fence and off it went.
All my work tools all my licenses access cards to places and my work laptop.
I was fully packed to go do a service in the morning leaving at 0500 so I prepared everything in the car in advance so I just had to get up shower and go.
Now I'm sitting here at home waiting to call insurance and see what little they will do for me regarding the vehicle and tooling.
My wife super stressed since being about to give birth any time now and no prospects for an income for either of us unless I go win the lotto and buy a new car and tools.
The car isn't really a problem though, I mean it is but it's the tools that I'll miss the most. I can't even go get a job working for someone else again without having tools to do my job. Really is a shit situation Unfortunately.
Anyway happy new year guys I hope everyone else's year starts off better then mine so far
School spends a long time "wasting" our time but learning things is a great way to learn how to interpret information and make actual informed decisions
Whole wiring harness burnt out, they said they had looked at it and there was nothing wrong.
We all migrate to smaller websites try not to post outside drawing attention just to hide from the "Ai" crawlers. The internet seems dead except for the few pockets we each know existed away from the clankers
We're expecting a cyclone in the next 24 hours so booms down lashed down.
Basically the title, you need to use the skills you have now and be a productive member of society.
I don't mean go back and show the wheel or try invent germ theory etc.
For example I'm a mechanic i think I could go back to the late 1800s and still fix and repair engines and steam engines.
Maybe even take that knowledge further back and work on the first industrial machines in the late 1700s but that's about it.
