Bummer. I couldn't swap magnets in those Schaller pickups. They were built in such a way that I might have snapped a wire when removing the old magnets. I guess those will stay as A5.

Good morning. My printer puked yesterday. The replacement part costs $90. A new Epson was $99. So I went with the new one. I have to hook it up today.

I also think I'm going to swap magnets in the Schaller pickups I have in one of my Heritages to A4. They currently have A5. I want a more articulate sound.

I also have a lead on a IT job at a local candy company. It's close to home so that's good. We'll see how it works out.

I believe I know which company and where it's at :wink: Good Luck! :thu:
 
So I'm talking to someone in our Perth office and find out they get Good Friday and the following Monday off as holidays, just like our UK office. The company is American.
:annoyed:
American corporations suck an olympic sized pool of dicks. I remember getting 11 or 12 paid holidays in the past, but these days we get 7. Are we Americans that fucking stupid and desperate for a job to allow these assholes to continually whittle us down on everything? Other modern countries don't allow this shit.

"Corporations are people", my ass!

30 years ago, the two main employers here moved to the south because the unions were greedy. Now, they move to China. I think their ultimate dream is factories full of robots, with robots to work on the robots that break down, and zero people. Only flaw I see here is, you need a customer, with a job, and money to buy your product.

Funny enough, this moron here in California was caught in the CarPool lane without any passengers. He claimed the paperwork in his car represented a corporation, which then counted as a person. Im sure he was in a Prius as well, driving 10mph under the speed limit to boot....

Here is a quick link to the story:

If I were the cop I would have beaten the shit out of that guy just for being an asshole.

:annoyed:
 
No doubt... All he is going to accomplish is a little addition to the Car Pool lane rules .... **2 Literal Humans in this lane!** What a dick! Taking advantage of that... "I've been trying to get a ticket for 10 years....."

All the while abusing the system....

If he cared that much, he could have just brought it up 10 years earlier to the folks that can rule on it.

We're sorry
But you're no longer needed
Or wanted
Or even cared about here
Machines can do a better job than you
This is what you get for asking questions

The unions agree
'sacrifices must be made'
Computers never go on strike
To save the working man you've got to put him out to pasture

Looks like we'll have to let you go
Doesn't it feel fulfilling to know
That you the human being are now obsolete
And there's nothing in hell we'll let you do about it

Soup is good food (we don't need you any more)
You made a good meal (we don't need you any more)
Now how do you feel (we don't need you any more)
To be shit out our ass
And thrown in the cold like a piece of trash

We're sorry
You'll just have to leave
Unemployment runs out after just six weeks
How does it feel to be a budget cut?
You're snipped
You no longer exist

Your number's been purged from our central computer
So we can rig the facts
And sweep you under the rug
See our chart? unemployment's going down
If that ruins your life that's your problem

Soup is good food, etc.

We're sorry
We hate to interrupt
But it's against the law to jump off this bridge
You'll just have to kill yourself somewhere else
A tourist might see you
And we wouldn't want that

I'm just doing my job, you know
So say uncle
And we'll take you to the mental health zoo
Force feed you mind-melting chemicals
Til even the outside world looks great

In hi-tech science research labs
It costs too much to bury all the dead
The mutilated disease-injected
Surplus rats who can't be used anymore

So they're dumped (with no minister present)
In a spiraling corkscrew dispose-all unit
Ground into sludge and flushed away
Aw geez.

Soup is good food
You made a good meal, etc¡*.

We know how much you'd like to die
We joke about it on our coffee breaks
But we're paid to force you to have a nice day
In the wonderful world we made just for you
"poor rats", we human rodents chuckle
At least we get a dignified cremation
At yet
At 6:embarrassed:0 tomorrow morning
It's time to get up and go to work

Seriously thinking about the Epi LP Special JR...JR special... the $99 one. I haven't heard much to say they're bad guitars. and a hundred bucks isn't bad a for a decent bedroom guitar. I'm pretty much sold... now to get the Mrs. on board with the plan!:-\

yes, that is true.... You missed the point of that joke though. Unless Prius owners in SoCal don't act like they are the freeway police.... ? Do you happen to own a Prius? Just asking...

It must be a local thing in the SF area. Most Prius drivers I see are rather meek, but living here in the land of obnoxious Super Doodoo truck and H2 drivers, it must be a survival tactic. :eek:
