Do I need to explain to you how it's done?

Yes, the top1% of earners pay 39% of the income tax revenue collected, and the top 10% of earners pay 70%.

The bottom 50% paid in only 3% of the tax revenues collected.

There's been little to no public housing built in the last four decades, and much of what existed has been torn down.

Not here in Southern California.

I have not seen any public housing torn down.

You can’t tear any housing down without replacing it.

I have seen a some poor management where former military bases we’re supposed to be converted but because they were left unoccupied and without real security the tweakers trashed them .

What I have seen is the government is renting large numbers of private housing in the desert areas for welfare recipients and this has destroyed some areas.

I feel that welfare and the other assistance problems need to be there but they are not a career.

The current system needs to be reformed.

I had an employee who was a single mom who was having trouble making ends meet and welfare told her to quit her job to collect benefits. Fortunately she came to me and I authorized her to work a little overtime to make it.

The system needs to be reformed with the goal to get most, if not all, of the recipients off of welfare as soon as possible. Yes the training and or education will cost more initially but at the end the recipient will then be paying into the system.

The classrooms are barely big enough for 30 of the little desks. This will not fit in a current class room setting. Then when you add the 3 foot isle behind it the problem gets worse.

NASCAR has been turning left for many years.......

They should turn right and then we can see who is really a driver and who is just a steering wheel holder

No, drinking DEF

Unions served a purpose at one point in time but that purpose has for the most part disappeared. There purpose was apprenticeship schools but that has been largely replaced by trade schools and community colleges.

I do not know of any skilled tradesman that exited the work place because of trump, it actually quite the opposite.

Engineers have degrees and professional licenses and are not unionized. I am an engineer and have never been part of the union.

Having worked for a union shop I can say that there are a lot of union workers that hide behind the contract to get out of work or milk the project. Then there a few that actually understand that behavior hurts the company, and ultimately them, and uses the contract as a guide. Many of the crews I had would do there work and go home regardless of weather they had worked there 8 or not. I did have a few crews that would call me if they were going to get done early, sometimes I would have the crew go to another project, usually to answer a question on the route back to there home, other times I would just tell them they got there 8 and I would see them in the morning. Guess who got the new equipment, trucks and overtime.


The truth is since trump was elected I know multiple people that have postponed there retirement.

This pandemic has not hurt my work, it has actually improved multiple aspects. Traffic has been greatly reduced or eliminated. We do not do worthless meetings anymore. Rates are way up.

Is the generator wet stacked?

When they do the test is the generator under load?

A diesel generator needs to be run at around a 66% load to avoid wet stacking.

Running it 20 minutes a week probably is not long enough to get any heat in the engine.

As we all know diesels do smoke when they are cold.

Generac only requires that a generator be 5 feet away from the building and recommends that it is down wind of any fresh air intakes.

There may be dampers on the existing fresh air intakes that are not functional or they could be set up to close only when the generator transfers power to the building.

The Problem could be as simple as a window is left open that should be closed.

Before spending 57G all the potential areas need to be looked at.

Here is a quick list

Start with the generator to make sure it is operating correctly and not wet stacked or has some other issue.

Is the generator correctly sized for the building and is it being maintained according to the manufacturers recommendations

Do air sampling to determine is this is a real or perceived issue

Review the plans and specifications for the building to make shore nothing has changed in the 10 years

Have the hvac system inspected to make shore it is operating correctly and has not been altered

Check the fresh air intake system for the building

My first thought is the accessory relay if you turn the key on and you don't hear a click in the the dash  I would check there first!

On my truck that relay only powers the heater and AC

Bring back the shinny metal hard hat

That is how you shut the engine off, that is not an emergency shut down.

Welcome to Mack’s

It’s time to chase wires

They are tube tires.

 

If you air them down to far you could cause tube creep and shear a valve stem off

 

If the tires are old I do not air them down, sidewall flex will destroy old tires.

 

Personally I do not air the tires down, I add air ride seats, air ride cab, air ride suspension or rebuild the springs

 

 

 

For fire safely should a standby generator be X amount feet from any building  

Depending on how it is designed

There are many emergency generators that are installed next to or inside of buildings

On the big office buildings the generators typically are in the basement and exhaust through the first floor side of the building near the loading dock

This whole idea hinges on this being an actual documented issue and not something that is a perceived issue.

Questions

 

Do they really need 400 kw?

 

“That’s pretty big for what sounds like a small building”

 

Did they actually get bids for the stack and moving?

 

Did they look into modifying the hvac system? Can they add dampeners to eliminate the fresh air intake to the building when the generator is running and only heat or coil return air just like in there vehicle.

 

Is there documentation to prove this problem actually happens or is someone just thinking it is happening?

 

Which way is your prevailing winds going?

 

 

I can honestly say I've never seen a rolloff with a double bunk COE before.

I have run into a few hauling dumpsters of hazmat

He was sleeping, probably passed out, in the drive thru!

It’s not like he parked his car in a parking space and was drinking or passed out.

A couple of years ago I was talking to the assistant sherif for an adjacent county in California and he brought up when Sacramento changed property crimes from a felony to misdemeanor it hampered law enforcement. For a felony they can hold someone and do a full background but for a misdemeanor it is cite and release on the spot.

All under the guise of reducing prison over crowding

Based on the pictures you posted in the other thread it looks like the axle may already have S cam brakes which is good.

Crawl under there and get some pictures of the tags on the axle and the carrier, center piece.

Changing the gear ratio is not that hard or expensive.

Having the springs re arched and rebuilt to the actual weight of the truck plus a ton or two will make it ride like a car even with the tires at 100 psi

Don’t run old tires at reduced pressure

Jim did you read the stats I posted?  Says it all in terms of black on black violence as well as the percentage of crimes committed by 13% of the population.  But no one wants to talk about that.

According to my Berkeley graduated son that is because they are over policed and the police were created to control the minorities

A frozen evaporator is often caused by restricted air flow through the evaporator

My good AC guys will hose the evaporator out of at least blow it out

I have noticed that large companies become dysfunctional and buried in layers of management to the point that they many times create an oppressive culture.

I think this can also happen in law enforcement and that certain departments need to be disbanded

The current covid19 pandemic has shown that, at least in my area, the hands off attitude of law enforcement did not cause the collapse of society
