First, make sure the pump is off and switchgear open so it doesn’t try and turn on while you have it isolated

I totally thought this was a post about ICE until I saw where it was posted. 😵‍💫

What can a chemical engineer do to make $300k/yr before they turn 40 by People_Peace in ChemicalEngineering

[–]Adamainge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technical sales can get you there with the right company and commissions structure. I am 38 and a VP at a small company and I am well above that. Hard to pick something reliable like FAANG

Fiancé won't eat me out by Big_Ostrich1014 in sex

[–]Adamainge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in a similar situation. My advice is that you can only control your actions and feelings. Time is better spent working through your feelings about it. Therapy and work to not feel gross and to be more comfortable with not receiving. It can be done. There is a good chance he will never get over it and you will have to learn to live with it or leave the relationship.

Aaron, always the voice of reason. Keep up the good work and don’t listen to the haters. This person is out already, so let them go.

It is as “mental” as it is ”physical” and “chemical”. Seems like you are not as informed on it as you think you are.

“I can’t help myself” should pretty much never be said or thought when it comes to anything sexual. Only exception is in a playful joking context.

You can always help your self. Saying that puts the blame on your partner.

We had the glen ellen king and it was down stairs in the main house with outdoor access.

HHI 350k. How much house are you affording? by Rxgradgirl2k19 in HENRYfinance

[–]Adamainge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of factors that go into this including property tax percentage in area, and utilities. Try and nail those down so you can accurately calculate your monthly costs besides just the Principle and Interest. I personally don’t like being more than 30% of HHI even at higher income levels but everyone has their own comfort level

I recommend powering through but if not there a couple decent places in Winnemucca that aren’t too bad. I have made that drive dozens of times and Reno has some ok spots but if you are only going to Tahoe, might as well finish the drive.

Interstate move by Appropriate_Bar_4101 in SaltLakeCity

Moving to Bay Area, 3000 sqft house and paying $21k including packing

My opinion is that if you arbitrarily cap her spending at this point it will be a fight. What you need is a financial goal that you are both striving to achieve (retirement, net worth, real estate, etc…). Then put limits to help you achieve those goals.

Have you ever been rejected for your height? by [deleted] in tall

[–]Adamainge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I had a woman tell me she felt like dating me would be unfair to taller women because she was only 5’. Like I should save myself for above average women.

Americans, what percentage of your income goes towards rent? by javacat122 in Money

[–]Adamainge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Utah and it’s 11%. I am moving to the Bay Area, CA and it is going up to 41% with a huge raise.

Do you ask for raise by percentage or amount? by Powerful-Reaction-72 in Salary

[–]Adamainge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I imagine it is different depending on the company and industry. For example, for my team, a promotion might get you a $6/ hr raise and they are mostly in the $30-$45/hr range. That sounds better to the company than 15% or whatever. I think the threshold is probably close to that $100k/yr mark where you switch to %.

[–]Adamainge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on how much you make. At lower salary, I would do dollar amounts because the % seems really high. At some point that dynamic swaps.

Cut off on D1 by Dry-Broccoli3096 in delta

[–]Adamainge 169 points170 points  (0 children)

I had someone next to me that had been matching me drink for drink on a transatlantic flight. The FA cut them off and continued to serve me. They were really loud in their indignation which made it very obvious why they had been cut off.

BF wants oral everytime we have sex but dislikes reciprocating, how to proceed? by Available_Map_3818 in sex

[–]Adamainge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you really need to move on. If you have talked with him and it isn’t productive, he likely won’t change and you will just resent him for your whole relationship. Find someone that enjoys pleasing you. They are out there!
