im just over it all.

offered voluntary OT this week. i turned it down told my boss i make more at home than i would here doing 5 hours of OT.

anyways, this older bitch who sucks, is lazy, and probably retarded, stays to do 2 hours. i see not 1 task completed and for an hour of it i was here she was just on her phone talking.

just annoying. i'd love to punch her in mouth but she's old. the woman part i can get around with the blatant disregard for human decency in a work environment

I'd never have phrased it this way, but I too work with an older woman who really is not capable of doing her job and actually makes my work load more difficult on a fairly regular basis.

Yesterday, she showed up at my desk with a post-it note referencing 2 of our QMS documents and, in her typical vapid intellectually stunted way, explained she couldn't remember what she had discussed with her supervisor but that these "items need to be closed out". Literally all the description I was able to get from her. Eventually, through extensive cross examination, I was able to determine that she was referring to me closing out action items on her list.

Which is a list of things she is supposed to do, and close out when she is done.

Which means I am not supposed to be the one closing them.

30 minutes of my time, lost forever.

yea im in the same boat.

literally the simplest of daily tasks that should be instinct at this point confuses her when it's verbally mentioned in a meeting etc..

yet......she tells people that she does everything in this group.

im not a snitch but i kinda want to just burn this bitch to get rid of her. it would make work 100x easier.

Found out that the company will be homeless by the end of the year.

Seems the Kansas Commerce department sold the building and the new owners want us ALL out....

This is dangerously close to actually talking about Z cars, but Rusty/Spooler/Hotrodz etc, do any of you have advice on where I should start with reading up on suspension components? Right now this is probably the area of the Z which I understand least; and given that we've now had 2 posts recently (Cupcakez and Shadow) where users with FI managed to nearly kill themselves thanks to poor suspension setups/lack of ability, I figure before I go FI I'd better have this down

I've started reading through the appropriate section of the forum, but a lot of the good data seems to be buried. I figured you guys might have a couple good keywords to search.

Spooler

They are buried. I can't remember how I found them. There area some good ones in the Track section from what I remember. Keep reading. Those 2 guys had an ability issue. You don't smash on the throttle in a boosted car. You drive it like you have an egg under the go pedal. Shadow needs to be on a chassis dyno. That's why they made them so the cars could be tested and tuned on it and not on the street. Much safer that way.

JLarson

Thanks Spooler. Yeah, it sounds like Shadow also has an issue with going abruptly to around 15 psi instead of 9, which is a LOT of power all at once. I just don't want to be the idiot ever making one of these posts

Hotrodz

He is not actually over boosting as much as he breaking traction and the wheel spin sends the rpms through the roof and boost blows up because there is no traction.

We all have done it and that is why I got a better rear diff. So it just want shoot me one way or the other radically.

Speaking of suspension parts we all agree spl everything. I would go Hotchkis front bar and then a good rear diff. I tell you those two will give you immediate results on handling. You got to get front A arms and rear camber arms and toe bolts to get your alignment settings dialed if you are going to go with lower springs or coils.

Rusty

Start with the SPL catalog. Hotchkis sway bar. Coilovers, depends on how much you want to spend. It could be from about $1,000 to over $5,000. Brakes, the 'bono's should be the minimum for a BBK. My way of thinking is that you should do the suspension, brakes, tires and everything else first before going FI. This way you are not playing catch-up with the new power.

The 2 people you mention. Pick one. The nut behind the wheel needs adjusted. Lack of ability, over zealous, overconfident, young, dumb, full of crap. Blaming their shorts comings on something else. The list goes on.
