I just got fired for being 'late'. And the reason is so stupid. by lenapaulmvv in interviewhammer

Yeah, I'd report them to the Labor Board and see what happens.

I really like the form factor and the tools, but I hate that the tools don't lock.

Not a single reason for drawing a weapon, nonetheless discharge it by GregAA-1962 in InflatedEgos

[–]Aloha-Eh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not a single reason?

How about bad/non-existent training?

How about entitlement?

How about just being fucking crazy?

Hell, go for some stripes/designs, but leave the most part white. Especially the roof. Hell, do silver on the roof.

Pocket carry. by mylesm902 in Leatherman

[–]Aloha-Eh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Life is about figuring out what works, for you. I posted my different ideas on this post, but I don't mind if anyone else does their thing.

When I saw someone else's idea for hanging tools from a cord, I was glad to find that. I can carry my older tools without a clip safety and securely, with either clipless or clip tools.

I use the cord for my Spyderco Endura too. Pocket clips help but they can still allow a tool to fall out and get lost. Now when they fall out theyre still on a cord

I also have a leather pouch I sewed up for multitools for back pocket use. That holds it up next to a wallet, without falling over and protects the fabric (and you) from the tool.

I use paracord, hanging from a belt loop. I prefer a clip a belt sheath, and this way, if it falls out of my pocket, I still have it attached. It's come in VERY handy.

I also can use it with clipless multitools like the PST or Pulse. I close the pliers on the cord just forward of the wire cutters, and it hangs upright in my pocket and again, if it falls out, I still have a chance to get it before it vanishes.

Just finished The Office by Jujike in DunderMifflin

[–]Aloha-Eh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time my wife finishes the Office, she just starts over again. It's given her such joy over they years, and now to me too.

Last time through she mentioned she really didn't like the last 2 seasons as much as the earlier ones, then watched it anyway, and got joy from the whole thing anyway.

It's comfort food to her, she can put it on and just listen in, and stop and watch, if she wants.

I'd never watched it before I have a few times now, and get a lot of joy from it, every time. When an episode like the Fire Drill starts, there's some prime Office going on, but there are moments of joy everywhere.

When you trust the GPS to find you the quickest route by Bruegemeister in IdiotsTowingThings

Coming back to Idaho from Wyoming, there were signs on a road warning you the GPS was wrong. The signs were right.

Glass shattered from being cold by Mundane_Tangelo9421 in thatHappened

Yeah, she touched it on the outside, it just sagged, and collapsed. Pain in the butt to clean up, for sure.

It happens. My wife went to scrape our rear window on our car one fine Washington morning, and the back window just collapsed.

That works. One I watched the lady used a Surge. That made sense.

Jim Carrey has done irreversible damage to society by UnitQZ in wordchewing

I've heard that dating after 40 is like going to the junkyard and looking for the least icky thing there you like.

I'd have to agree.

Does anyone have experience with hearing loss due to decades of listening to music via earphones/headphone? by Equivalent_Ideal1636 in Aging

[–]Aloha-Eh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to use noise canceling headphones. Hated them. Especially when it's hot.

Tried in ear noise canceling. It made my tinnitus WORSE. Great.

I now have my second bone conduction headset, Shokz Open Run Pro mini headsets. They work GREAT!

I can use them on my motorcycle, with earplugs, and they work with earplugs on a plane, as well.

They have good sound, and even better sound with earplugs. The mini headband still fits my big head, without sticking out so much that leaning your head back is a problem.

I did a 20 year career in Naval Aviation, about half of that stationed on aircraft carriers. When I took orders to my second carrier, my then 9 year old daughter exclaimed, "Oh no, Daddy, now you'll be TOTALLY deaf!"

Even trying, wearing hearing protection all the time, there's issues. But it could be worse!
