Hit 40 degrees. Pipes thawed. One exterior faucet that feeds water to the pool is cracked and leaking. It was well insulated but still busted. Handyman on the way over.

Water to the house is shut off.

Sucks HD. Glad you caught it.

I just spent two hours on a fifteen minutes project to replace the ice maker in a Samsung fridge. The swap was fifteen minutes but using a hairdryer on low to melt the iceberg on the cooling fan all the way in the back took an hour and forty five minutes...

Once I found the leak/geyser I was talking to the landlord and then he discovered heโ€™s got a blown line also in his outdoor kitchen. Weโ€™re trying to get them both fixed tonight. Yay Christmas Eve!

In our Cali house we had a Samsung fridge with an ice maker problem. Home warranty tried six times to fix it by swapping in a new ice maker. Finally changed the entire motherboard and it worked perfectly ever since.

Got a request for a 3rd interview for an IT job supporting the local and surrounding school districts. Looks l made it to the final round. Pretty excited about this opportunity and hope it pans out.

Still keeping more irons in the fire. Another local company wants to do a face to face interview after the holidays. Small company that bought some of Foster Grant's technology for optics, lenses and stuff. They are looking for a manufacturing engineer that can wear two hats of manufacturing and a QC guy. Not sure on this one. I think manufacturing and QC should be separate identities that work together and pseudo independent in order to keep the checks and balances. Having one person or a team that does both is kind of a conflict of interest (in my opinion).

Would get paid more with the engineering positions out there and where I have most of my professional experience but I'd like to cut my teeth in the IT stuff even if it pays less.

We have a Samsung refrigerator too. We will never buy another one again. Terrible ice maker problems requiring three replacements before the factory came out with an updated model sans defect(s). Also, bottom shelf is fixed in place so we cannot take it out to clean it. But, hey, what else do you have to do today and tomorrow? Remember, reservations are at 6:30pm tomorrow

Merry Christmas Morning! It's warmed up to 27ยฐ and the high today is supposed to be 40ยฐ, much better than yesterday.

Last night we went to our older son's MIL's house so I decided I needed to roast more coffee, I nearly froze. I even had to wrap the propane fired roaster in a towel, I was watching it, to insulate it enough to finish the roast.

Merry Christmas!

Robert is correct and you are too, if QC is not independent from production, there is a problem and can almost guarantee you'll be caught int he middle. Sounds like they want inspect quality in and that never works.
