We're drinking beer
Those on here who know me and are accustomed to my personality know that I am my own harshest critic. I feel that if someone could learn from the mistakes I make, it's worth the cost of sounding like an idiot when I pull a bone head move...
Case in point - Work has been all-consuming these past couple weeks. I have struggled to sleep at night because of all the problems I am trying to work out in my head right now. As a result I have not been paying nearly as much attention to the truck as I usually do.
So, yesterday I pull into the office and notice the steering is tight, almost like it's binding up. Think nothing of it, as my mind is preoccupied. Get in the truck to drive to the campus across the street and when I roll the window down to scan my badge I hear that familiar Ford power steering pump whine. ****, I know whats wrong. I have a tiny leak on one of the hoses that consumes roughly a teaspoon of fluid every month or so. Can't honestly remember the last time I checked the reservoir. By the time I get the truck to the parts house to buy fluid it's howling pretty good. Anyway, fluid is in and topped off and now the pump has a constant hum to it... Looks like I get to replace that next, all on account of not keeping an eye on it...
Keep an eye on those fluids, folks...
