Re: [AFMUG] Diesel Truck Options

Looks like the truck with 198k has about 1900 PTO hours. I'm going to have
to check on the Nissan. I'm a little curious what the dependability is like
on the Nissan diesels.

Yeah, I need to check hours on these if that number is available.

Bucket trucks can spend a LOT of time idling. Check that before you just look 
at the miles.

We have a truck with 200k but the engine is only 1yr old because the old engine 
died from oil starvation at idle.

I'm looking at a couple bucket trucks, a bit over 10 years old. One is a Nissan 
UD truck with around 40k miles, the other is a GMC 5500 with about 198k miles. 
They both look to be in decent shape for their age. The Nissan is a bit of a 
strange layout with a cab-over kind of setup, but otherwise seems like a decent 
deal. They are around the same price. Does anyone have experience with either 
of these?

theyre probably mostly database engineers and code testers.
"Outside Engineers" are probably the on staff drug dealers, I bet adderall

[AFMUG] OT: What do all those big tech employees do?

2021-09-13 Thread Nate Burke
I'm always hearing about the 1000's of people that Big Tech employs, 
Google/Facebook/Amazon  what do all those people actually do?  We know 
they're not doing support, just look at Forums or NANOG with the number 
of providers having unresolved GeoIssues.  I had a geo ticket open with 
YoutubeTV for over a year when they decided to just close it since it 
was messing up their ticket closure numbers.


The Chrome team is probably what, about 6 guys?  There's their little 
android thing too, but still 1000 people on that team?


OK, Amazon actually has stores and warehouses to run, but aren't they 
all just contractors?


Facebook is just a Database with a fancy frontend, so not much to do 
there either.


Are the rest of the people all just doing the Ad sales?
