Time clock = those old time card punch thingies?

Ours is a digital keypad and fingerprint scanner, not sure what Lance uses.

BTW, stick with that old time clock as long as you can. 99% of the ones out there all have some fancy features, phone apps, etc but are almost all monthly subscription based, for 100 users it can run hundreds a month. We finally found one with no contracts but it was $400 bucks PLUS another $150 to upgrade to 100 users. AND has none of the fancy stuff. ONE PC, One admin, etc. Just a basic thumbprint clock.

The one we use has no monthly charge and it's good for 50 employees. You can buy an upgrade to add more employees if needed, but there's no subscription charge, even with an upgraded time clock from the company we got ours from, at least with the clocks that use the swipe system.

We use a swipe clock that uses cards with magnetic stripe cards.



Our actual time clock

Our kids would lose the cards. Or give each other cards to fake additional hours.

What a lovely lovely day.

Been on the phone all day, inquiring about bills and services, being bounced around from one representative to the next. I think I listened to 3 full hours of muzak while on hold.

Muzak is an underrated form of entertainment

Muzak is the only form of entertainment designed in theory to calm you down, but in actuality pisses you off more than you were when you placed the call 45 minutes ago.

Yea, I looked. They're expensive. Maybe next time if the one we got doesn't work out.

So in the last week and a half, I've replaced two PC's and got all the programs and data transferred over to them, upgraded the shop software we use from PC based to cloud based (of course now we have to pay a monthly sub for that now ), changed the company and upgraded all the email servers we use, and dicked around for days getting our ancient time clock to work with the upgraded PC.

I hate IT work

You did it, though. Great job.

Holy crap. A new alternator for truck is $450 at auto parts store. Almost $800 at dealership.

Is your (!) at the general price or the price difference?

[KevinD]

A bit of both tbh. I went with the new (not rebuilt) one from the auto parts store. Its marketed as oem. When I opened the box, it has the same stickers (AC Delco/Denzo) as original, so I guess it is oem. Last time I bought an alternator, it was less than $100. That was quite a few years ago though.

Left-wing meltdown over the Carson- Musk interview is reaching fever pitch. *Pop* *pop* liberal media heads (google it, lol).

You know what is absolutely freaking hilarious, though. Musk is saying exactly the same things that was saying in previous years. He hasn't changed whatsoever
