fortean experiences? The only reason i had to answer unknowns here lately was i had some framers come in and fix an issue with a central heat unit in the attic was coming through the bedroom ceiling bringing the roof down with it. its all done. fortean experiences? would that be seeing a tr3b less than two weeks ago in the neighbors back yard?

how did those things come to be known as 'TR3B' ?

We've had some issues with the powder coat system this week and lost many parameters for the IR ovens...The main computer motherboard blew out a capacitor and crashed the system during shutdown two days ago, fortunately the hard drive was not damaged although cutting the system during shut down caused a loss of some data...I installed a new system computer and had to make a call to Austria to the group who originally installed this equipment to get the software license reinitialized on the new computer hardware so I could get back into the programming side of the software...I've been working on the timings for the IR gel station which is right before the ovens...Also oven 3 is down, it will not ignite, today I did determine its a mechanical issue with oven 3 so I made a call to a local company that repairs natural gas systems such as this, they are an hour away and drove over today to access the situation...

Even through all this we are still running production, we only lost a couple hours of production, most of the work I'm doing is whilst the equipment is in operation...

...

I'm stuck at work this weekend finishing the programming and configuration of the powder coat system...I was really trying to complete this work by yesterday as I had plans to travel out of state to visit a friend this weekend, a huge disappointment for me I'm not able to make that trip this week because of this work...I have to have this equipment operational by Monday and it will be...

fortean experiences?
fancy name for "paranormal experiences"
fortean experiences? would that be seeing a tr3b less than two weeks ago in the neighbors back yard?
definitely, but please call it a "flying black triangle", the tr-3b was a bogus name gave to it by a false whistleblower
i had some framers
this may sound weird and a bit paranoid but you did notice anything weird about them or the vehicle they drove in to your home?

Hey @ coubob - don't take this the wrong way (just goofing) - I don't doubt you saw something weird.

I must live in a cave or something because I was a little surprised about the 'TR3B' . Soooper-dooper secret-ish hardware. What was the TR3A - an anti-gravity parallelogram or a rhombus? I guess saucers are no longer in fashion :)

Nothing weird about them that i could tell,

I got lots of war stories about weird calls - one in particular takes the cake. Many years ago and the tech in use was primitive by today's standards. Hard to put into a sentence or two but after dozens of calls to all sorts of places - the FBI, Rudolph Giuliani's private residence, pizza shops, local police and fire departments and 911 the cause turned out to be a disgruntled employee. Quite the tension convention with lawyers sharpening their knives. An executive admin who was being boinked by the owner in private and then verbally humiliated by him in public. I literally caught her in the act - of making the calls, that is.

I really have no idea what it was , my wife called me outside to see what she thought was a helicoptor hovering just above the trees in the nextdoor naighbors yard as i got out there it sounded like a heli but the shape was a triangle and a big as a single story house

Been dealin with a central heat and air unit in the attic, it works great, the thing is who ever installed it in this 96 year old house messed up. They cut some purlin braces and braced the unit from the rafter to the joist. anyhow the whole thing began pulling the roof down and i had 3 broke ceiling joist. Now the bedroom has 2 x 6 joist with a 2 x 8 and 2 x 6 strong back over the top along the middle supporting the roof and for the central heat unit .Finished getting it ready for new sheet rock today, When i knocked down that old rock , omg the dirt, since this house was built in 1923 that dirt on the top of the rock had to be from the dust bowl, i swear there was and 1/8 - 1/4 inch in places.

the old lady got admitted to to the icu this morning, due to copd and heart issues, something to do with the ejection fraction (EF), i thinks its the amount of blood the heart expels each time, she just to the dr the other day and had an electrocardiogram scheduled the 30th, but she ended up catching a cold and got really bad this morning with an O2 OF 85%, so their doing one in the morning. she gets so out of breath just getting on the bedside toilet. hard to believe just a couple of years ago she earned her 1st dan black belt in taekwondo and now she reduced to this, hopefully they can get her heart meds figured out or something, the copd is a no win , but jeez..its hard to watch a loved one diminish with something ya cant do a think about for the most part

I am very sorry to hear that. Hopefully they can dial in the meds and help her out.

Thanks, The e/f thing came back fine and they say its not caused by her heart and her heart is fine, why than is she on all the heart meds, i wonder. anyhow she has an appointment with the lung specialist in a couple of weeks.

I've been slammed with multiple issues at work over the last 10 days, to make a long explanation short, from staffing issues to equipment failures and electrical grid failures in the area and with that I've also been setting up a whole new production line for two shifts to operate and that needs to begin next week and currently I'm very behind that schedule...This is the most challenging period since I took this job 6 months ago...ugh

Take care of yourself physically - sounds as though you do anyway. I burned myself out after years of stress and sleep deprivation and some things just don't recover. I lost two friends recently because of that plus the fact they didn't maintain their health.

Maybe keeping a nice bottle of bourbon in your desk drawer and then loudly voicing your real opinions occasionally would be cathartic? :)

The day was a little quieter today for one of the reasons listed above, I arrived at work to find out all 3 phase machinery was down because we lost one leg of the 480 and 240 volt systems...Took the power company almost 12 hours to fix the problem, apparently it began at midnight last night lasting until noon today, oh and I forgot to add, the warehouse manager showed his arse to me, so for the first time I saw first hand the special attitude of his that I've been hearing so much about, he went in a rant complaining about things that went on years ago, long before my time there and with all of those people he compained about also not working there any longer...O.o

I find it odd, earlier as I was in thought about my trip on the high seas circumventing both coasts of South America I cannot remember what I did the very next day after traveling around Cape Horn...I remember the days before and after except the very next day after...I know for a lot of the crew it was a day of rest because going around Cape Horn are the roughest seas I've ever been on, we were walking on the walls of the ship and had to be strapped in the bed to sleep, if you could sleep and did not vomit periodically...
