What are you doing right now?

I’m home now. Had a bad day today at work because of a manager accusing me of leaving a wheel loose. I’m glad she won’t be there tomorrow but I am thinking of going to HR. I’ll think on it tomorrow but not going to let it bother me anymore tonight. Just glad to be off and relaxing now.

Goign to HR only puts you on the radar.

HR is there to cover for liabilities, which includes shining a spotlight on anyone who complains. If HR punishes the manager, she'll retaliate somehow.

Lay low and explore your network and opportunities.

You should be looking for a new job every few years anyway, build your resume, certifications, and work up the pay ladder until you open your shop!
 
He tried to defend me yesterday and they would just keep disagreeing and swear that we were both wrong and that I just simply don’t know how to install wheels on a vehicle properly.
Like said, the best thing to make them realize the issue is have the owner of the truck tell them the lug nuts aren't right for those wheels and mention they have loosened on him too before you worked on it.

I just changed the plastic air intake in my 2009 Honda Pilot . The original had a rip in the “ accordion” section. It had given lean codes in both banks, 0171 and 0174. The replacement was sold by Gates and of course Made in China. Here are some shots. All good now. No codes. A few tips: unscrew the air box top for more movement. Use a blade to slice the rubber collar where the line enters from the side. Put a bit of soapy water on the plastic to slide on.

Got a quote for renting a minivan like a Pacifica or similar unlimited mileage for $60 a day... I remember renting regular vans at $50 a day 35 years ago...

Sounds good ????
