"Some" old farts ain't got no smarts.

You dumb fookers are going hurt yor old asses.

Not bad deal, 15 student employees, 3 janitors I manage. Janitors keep the building clean, students flip the rooms for the next event.

Boss is very nice and the work is fast paced. We are always running and preparing for the next event.

The only negative has been all the walking but I've even got use to that after a month. [/QUOTE

Walking from your desk to the chocolate bar machine?

 

[Willy P]

I thought this was the clean room not the ladies room.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Sorry!

Let me take this moment to apologize.
In fact I had always heard jackasse were strong.

Here's a little portable that I picked up today for $250. 17 gallon rustler with a 150 psi pump and 2-2 stage vacs. Lightweight and great for situations where you only have 1 power outlet available. This one is in immaculate shape. Looks like it's hardly been used.

That's a good machine. You will need 20 amps on the cord that powers the pump and vac motors. I have one without heat and converted it to 2 power cords. Works great on small jobs, plenty of vacuum. Eventually I will convert to 2 13.8 vac motors instead of the current 9.8 amp motors. More power is always good. I have a separate inline heater I use with it.

I don’t do sea food. Fish is the vegetable of the meat world.

You don't know what you're missing until you've had Dungeness crab dipped into hot garlic butter.

He’s at a Chinese buffet.
He probably has crabs and doesn’t know it

I knew a girl like that once. We just called her itchy.

 

[Jimmy L]

I avoid all buffets except KFC. Got sick once from all people sneezing and farting all over the food.
I blame it all on the illegal mexicans who make that food and try to pass off as chinese.

 

[hogjowl]

Even the ones who are janitors?

 

[Desk Jockey]

I sneeze at all buffets I pass, on the occasion that Jimmy might eat there.

Doesn't the owner know that it's considered rude to serve dim sum anytime after lunch.

 

[randy]

I would take a serious look at the powrflite NOMAD. Light weight, 220 psi, good vac and lightweight. Hoses & wand included. $1400

Did MeAt get the Mytee?

 

[Dolly Llama]

Did MeAt get the Mytee?

sure did
Cleaned my carpets the next day
No drips, no runs, no errors ….and even makes hot water.
I was able to do a damnfine job with it

Already sent dipwad (daughter's dOmestiC pArtnEr) out to do several empties with it too
It's near paid for it's self already

One thing I know for sure though....I'd slit my wrists if I had to use a porty full time to clean carpets
(Dipwad has never known/used a TM) so he thinks it's great if he makes fiddy cash on percentage for a couple hours work

..L.T.A.

 

[Kenny Hayes]

I’m old, use a porty, sometimes, but never, ever pick one up. Even drag the spotter on a cart. If I had to use any everyday, much less pick it up, I’d slit my wrist.

 

[Jack Zipper Zerkie]

I have the EDIC and it great but doesn't go up the stairs easy good for 1 floor units. I just picked up a old original rug dr. R-40 changed out the pump and vac. Now blue in color and use it for furniture and spotting. Make it easy to get through the day. jz

 

[vibra-vacster]

400$ on ebay. If I have to use a porty...this is the one that will be in the van. Light and easy to use...spot cleaning most likely.
The $3000 dollar Ninja Warrior will stay in the garage...hope I never need it. View attachment 84188

Hi Bob, so i see you bought that Vibra Vac R-101 with the RE-VB-12B combo off of Ebay huh?
Almost bought it myself and i already have um.. a few lol.

 

[hogjowl]

Why

Jack im curious what pump and vac you used as an upgrade on your R-40?
Ive upgraded the orig 35psi Oberdorfer pump to a 150psi Shurflo, and upgraded the orig 2 stage 7.2 Lamb Vac to a 3 stag 7.2 on mine. Upgraded front casters to 3 inch and rear wheels to 7 inch as well.

 

[Bob Pruitt]

Really wanted the big one with the 16 inch tool but this was what I could find and it is like new. Spent it's life at the Los Angeles City Water and Power Building and looks like it was used a couple of times and put away. Still one day I will pick up the big one.

Hi Bob, i got a couple of the bigger R-150's that came with the bigger VB-16B 16 inch wand which weighs like 40lbs. I prefer the 12inch RE-VB-12B, VB-12B or smaller 10inch V-10B myself though.
The early ones without the B were the steel ones that rusted , and the later B models were all stainless and are beasts! I have a new in box VB-16B still in the plastic that i dont even use.
