Short lived profession, VCR repairman

Yet there are TV repairpersons everywhere, that look out of business.

The warranty at BB covers nothing but dollars away from your future TV purchase

I worked at Sears Repair Center thru college..they repaired evvvverything, tvs, vacuums, mowers, and had like 30 vans. My veteran uncle worked there as well and were good paying blue collar jobs.

I remember that. If we had something break under warranty, we'd take it back and they'd repair it there. I guess they don't do that anymore?

*Jeez, Sally autocorrects everything to typos and then doesn't change obvious tyops. . .

trust me, my wife's brother is an engineer, and her dad a fix it of everything. I am not handy.

Growing up, we bought Kenmore and Craftsmen, also Sharp electronics. Sears had THE best warranty and local service centers.

**** man, if anyone doesnt believe in purposeful obsolescence look at a Kenmoore appliance that STILL works. My garage door opener is 1994 model. Works great.

Mom's oven, works. Dishwasher, works.

Dishwashers, cant last 3 years. Washers ans dryers, much like politics, which sucks less.

Enjoy physical labor and working with my hands. Have completely redone my yard, which has many leather bound books.

Have taught myself much along the way. Definitely respect those who are handy.

But if an appliance breaks, call the sears service center.

This baseball season has been strange and some of our fans even stranger. To read some posts on here one would think our season was complete trash. Yet when comparing our season after winning a NC to other recent teams, you will see we had a great season. Guess some people need to complain about something.

People need to enjoy this baseball ride. Because once revenue sharing fully kicks in, it likely won’t be anywhere near what it is now.

Also it’s clear just some folks who have never followed college baseball until UT’s recent dominant run.

They think that’s normal and if we don’t bash 4 bombs every game and score 10+ runs then we suck. We lost 4-3 yesterday in arguably the toughest road environment in the country to a top 3 national seed and our own fans saying we suck .

Honestly it would be terrible to be a player these days.

Thought you meant Coastal for a sec

I just went into the Arkansas baseball museum at Baum Walker. I couldn’t find their national championship trophy, just several “participant” trophies. Weird?

You should scream out loud “where’s the national championship trophy?” with a confused look

 

[SoilVol]

Maybe its not the ACC's year after all

 

[Jackcrevol]

well boys and girl, this is it. it's time. no more pussy footing about.

If I buy anymore, I'm gonna buy restored antique stuff from the 50's. Those guys were building Jetson type of stuff that was good quality back then. May be a few hundred $ more, but I'll probably never have to buy again, . The digital panels seem to fail a lot these days. . .

who needs digital on their appliances? I had my first washer hand me down and it was like 20 years old and even worked when I got a new one years later.,It needed balancing cause it moved..lol

I like that off-white/cream & chrome combo they used back then. Have you ever really looked at some of those old fridges? They've got a better design and features than most of the stuff today.

When I was a kid, my mom had and old washer with a roller/ringer thing on top. Looked like 2 rolling pins stuck together. I guess it was electric wash, but maybe not. I'll have to ask her next time we talk.

Really though, the only thing I ever do is press large or small load, hot or cold and start. I'm not sure I've ever used any of the fancy buttons yet.

Wow, I was thinking that AZ beat UNC 18-2. Would suck to drop the series after a win like that.

 

[Rishvol]

Did he move to get hit?

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Do we not have someone looking at replays before we challenge? There’s no way we should be using a challenge for this.

 

[knoxvol52]

Why challenge that .?
