    I’m currently considering leaving the federal government after 16 years of service (a year of active duty military as well). I’m completely unfulfilled in my current position and just feeling stuck. I recently received a job outside of the federal government that sounds really good but I’m very nervous about leaving everything I’ve worked for with the federal government. Looks like reinstatement rights are good in the event that I get out and decide to return. But still, it’s a scary thing even considering such a secure job.

    Anyone working for the government mafia is a parasite and an immoral ahole. The inefficiency is one thing, but the ethics of literally living off of MANY other people having half their wealth perpetually stolen to finance your UNNECESSARY job, is abhorrent, immoral and highly unethical. I don't care what your government job is, quit being a parasite living off of taxtortion loot, collected without consent from yous victims. Stop being pro slavery.

    Thanks from me too as I have wondered about the performance comparison. I have the Stihl combi system with blower, line trimmer, variable angle hedge trimmer, edger, pole saw, and extension, with the Km-94 power head which I prefer over the 4 mix ones myself- less power but simpler and no valve clearances to adjust and never misses a beat. I'm told the blower attachment has three fans in it which explains the solid performance. I use mine for a lot of jobs, obviously ground clean up , but also blowing off sanding dust prior to painting, blowing out gutters, blowing out my garage, and so on- a very handy tool. I recently replaced the set after ten years of domestic use on multiple properties and all were still functioning well. I'd rate the Husqvarna equivalents as superior in engineering and design but stayed with Stihl as the KM-94 is lighter and that blower is so good. I'd say the biggest weakness in the system is the connection is only locked by the clamp, there is only a plastic key to stop it from rotating and this is easily overcome, unlike the Husqi and Echo equivalents which have a proper metal pawl. Also the Stihl hedge trimmer has reduced in length, the Husqi one is longer which is more efficient. One of my most useful tool systems though- really enables a lot of work to get done in a short time.

    Do you notice a big difference in power between the u27 and u35? With the exception of the angle blade do you think its worth the 10k extra over the u27

  • @shamrockdirtwork7945
    @shamrockdirtwork79455 ай бұрын

    The U35 is a big improvement over the U27. There's more leg room and the additional power combined with the angle blade is worth the additional cost.

    Always check double-check to make sure the electric has been disconnected so you do not get electrocuted with the metal machinery always check to see if the water meter has been disconnected from the water or water will be splashing flying everywhere costing the building owner property more money deducted from your paycheck always Mark out the septic tank so you do not fall into the septic tank with the heavy equipment🎉❤🎉

    My driveway is 700 ft long with a 200 ft drop. I've fought it for 30 years. Last fall I put $20k into concrete on it. 2 more times and I won't fight it anymore. Walking the fresh work with your excavator after the first rain will go a long way packing it down

    Hey, Our 80 got the same tear like yours! Ours happened at the marked spot on the track where its joined together in manufacturing so we think it was a defect considering we baby the tracks to keep them in good shape... Anyways, how have the hybrid tracks treated you the last 3 years? Is there any clearance issues between the angle blade and the track, our dealer swears it will hit the track and we should stay rubber
