will get a few of those. All of my home car wash items are still packed away somewhere and I have no Idea where...
Suggestion was to apply them as a post-wash finish, but they took the mud out of the fenders in one wipe. I would remove the mud, soap and water as per usual, then reapply to "seal".

Speaking of unions, the union contracts are all in a negotiation year up here. Lots of chatter going on, as is the usual in contract years.

Came into the office and the discussion was on when the last strick was, and that we are “due” for one. :facepalm:
Hopefully not!! It’s so much better for everyone when a negotiated settlement can be reached without a complete withdrawal of services.

I will do just that. the door handles, bumper, side steps and the edges of the fenders all show where the mud once was. (Friday I got in some pretty deep mud, like almost to water fording depths...)

lol, I understand. How did it go? Theres HUNDREDS of posts I'd need to sort through since Friday...
Very excellent. Suggest you go back and look at OB's videos that he posted.

We also learned that DV8 does not yet know how to make a properly fitting bumper for the JL.

We are having huge issues with the nurses at the Medical Center. Their contract has expired and they are looking for a boost. Of course the powers that be don't wanna budge. Nurse union started out asking for 25% and the hospital offered 13%. The nurses did a 2 day strike while the hospital brought in temporary nurses during that time. Then back to the table to talk some more. Now we are at 23% nurses and 15% hospital.

From the outside it seems like the hospital is greedy since the top brass is pulling in well over a million each. Would really like to see all the financial details to make an informed decision on who needs to give more. I can say that without the nurses, they might as well close up shop.

In general, middle class wages are lagging behind the increases in cost of living. I wouldn't be surprised if those nurses are underpaid.

That's what they are saying along with overworked. Too few nurses for the duties at hand. They need to boost the wages to entice new nurses into the area. Our daughter Keely wanted to work here. All they could offer was night shift. BYE! She's at the hospital in Manchester NH instead.

"Srike"? :cwl:
Strike* I have a wireless keyboard, I think I either miss a keystroke every once in a while or the keyboard does.

I just found it ironic since we were discussing @CrazyKASG's typo.
