Looks like the sort of photo I would have to send to a dispatcher before they would accept that I need a tow because this pile of shit isn't going anywhere.

    Its my picture, it blew out on the way back to the yard. It was only about 15 miles away so I told the boss I had a puncture and he brought me this

    Yeah, this is 100% a response to someone's very stupid question.

    Some dispatcher that is not allowed to send anyone out until basic troubleshooting is done as you say, or some manager thinking they understand better than you with the question "Well can you try..."

    Joking aside that’s a decent portable compressor. Had one for a couple years. Effective and convenient. Just wish batteries for these things weren’t so expensive, they’re the printer ink of the portable tool world.

    When my Makita drill batteries died I was looking for new ones only to find that's it's cheaper to buy a whole new drill with batteries than to just replace my dead batteries. Absolutely stupid and wasteful.

    Overhyped overpriced makita cannot fill even relatively small tire!

    A perfect photo for "no logic, all wishful thinking" if I've ever seen one.

    It's a makita. It can do it.

    All you need is patience. Lots and lots of patience.

    Me going through the motions with Dell support fully knowing the steps they're making me do to troubleshoot to get through their scripted bullshit won't do a damn thing.
