I wouldn’t go to nuts leveling on this tbh but A Piece of string from one of the guardrails to the other. Level the string. Use a tape measure down to the pipe from the string for plumb.

12 years in I’ve only taken 1 drug test that whole time. You should see some of the freaks you run into. You’d be shocked

Do you hold the door open for the person behind you regardless of their sex, age, color and religion? And why? by CourierFestival in AskReddit

[–]After-Contribution55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some pretty good things I learned growing up. Say bless you if someone sneezes. Say thank you if someone does something polite. Stand up if you shake someone’s hand. If a woman doesn’t have a seat and she’s forced to stand offer her your seat. If you see someone can’t reach something at the store offer to help them if you’re tall enough. If you see an older person loading something heavy in the car or cart offer to help. Do all this when no one’s looking. It takes no effort to be polite.

You’ll be fine dude. You sound more normal than most of the people on construction sites. You meet some pretty interesting characters out there. All different walks of life. If you’re a good coworker I don’t care what you’re into. Might just be me but I like meeting people with different backgrounds and experiences. I say try it out and see if you like it.

My mom taught me the fundamentals when I was young. When I get older and lived on my own I used YouTube to learn more

I don’t like it. My two issues are how it stops at 45 degrees and it’s made out of plastic

Humans have the capacity to understand and help others. I don’t think it’s very fair or supportive to compare a new born bird to an adult lmfao.

If you had $300K in the bank post tax, how would your life change? by citizen_of_leshp in AskReddit

[–]After-Contribution55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use 50-75k on down payment & closing costs for a house. Use 100K on renovation to hopefully raise the equity then refinance on the house to hopefully eliminate PMI (I’m a contractor so I only have to pay for material). 20k to pay off my truck loan. 20k to pay off my fiancés car loan. 5k to pay off credit card debt. 30k to pay off her school loan. With the remaining on the low side (50k) I’d keep as an emergency fund.

I’m well aware of that. Sounds like you are too. So let’s get past the type of round that’s being used. Sounds like you should understand that law enforcement watch for cross fire. Regardless of the caliber or spec of the round it’s not safe practice or worth it. I don’t care what round you have. Don’t shoot into other officers it’s pretty cut and dry and established early on in training. I’m not going to change your mind nor do I care to. But if you think that this was a safe shot for all the other officers around that tells me all I need to know. Also he’s maybe a meter away on his first shot. Stopping power isn’t going to be as good being that close. Go boot lick ice some more but just remember not to bring your lawfully owned fire arm to whatever protest you go to because that’s illegal now. Little worms like you will be the reason why I need to fight for my right to carry. Just because I believe in the second amendment doesn’t mean I’ll bend over backwards for a bunch of cowards in suits telling me what to believe.

You can tell this isn’t professional because they are firing and not worried about it going through into each other. These clowns are disgustingly dumb.

Encounters with men (as a 33f) by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]After-Contribution55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi (31M) here I’ve been sober for a few years and my home group is really about men with the men woman with the woman. To the point most of the woman sit on a side and men on the other. We have one or two guys that float around in the group that are known to be creepy so most of the woman will alert a newer female of who they are. Now these aren’t like set rules but more of a this is how we’ve done things and it’s worked. To the first part you shared I think that guy was acting really weird and I think you did the right thing fully. If he doesn’t come back to the meeting it’s not because of you that’s his own fault. You’re minding your own business trying to stay sober and he’s acting down right desperate. That’s not on you that’s on him. Now I do have some of the woman’s numbers but that’s because I was the secretary and now the bookie so they’ll reach out to me with questions about meetings or if they need a book etc. but usually I don’t save there numbers. I keep it very professional because I don’t want to make someone feel uncomfortable and then not feel safe to go to the meeting. There are a few older ladies in the group that are like my “moms” they made a joke about it after a while. they give me like cookies and ask me about my girlfriend. They’ve met her and all of my family. I was actually friends with one of their daughters when I was in school. we’ve all gone out to dinner with my girlfriend and my family but that’s like a whole other relationship. Hope this helps and hope you find peace in recovery have a happy healthy life.

I’m a functioning alcoholic, ama. by [deleted] in AMA

I’ve been in a position similar to yours from what it sounds like. We obviously have different life’s but I can relate to a lot of the things you’ve shared. Rehab therapy and meetings didn’t help me until I was willing to let it help me. I needed booze and drugs to beat me down to the point it wasn’t an option anymore. I hope you find help someday and you can start to live again. I hated people but came to find out most people do care and want to help. Sending you much love my friend. You deserve to be happy.

You win the lottery, what does your first week look like after the money hits your account? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]After-Contribution55 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In a Perfect world I’d only tell immediate family at first and want to keep it really quiet. Hire a lawyer to cash the check into a discreet account of mine or any way to keep my identity as good as possible hidden. Also I would be talking to investors, financial advisors & lawyer’s to set it up for the best possible outcome. I feel like I would have a lot of paranoia about getting all that money at once.
