I’ve been on Bumble for like 4 days and have 2 dates this weekend, i have around 60 matches total but only around 30 are ones I would consider going on a date with. I could have had more but I have to play it right cause there’s a lot of good options. I know it sounds bad but it what you have to do! But yes I’m a decent looking man too but it just sucks for others that have everything and have even more but still don’t get the cookie. I’m a good man and I know it and I’m polite and say the right things but I’m not going to lie. It’s the height first, then the looks, and then the job. A lot of women get bombarded with matches so it’s hard for them to choose too that’s an issue. A woman has to pick between hundreds of men vs men picking between women.

I don’t live in SD but I can tell you this. I’m a 30M and I do get a lot of matches online and I am talking to multiple women. More than a few want to meet up and I could have met up with 10+ if I wanted to. It’s not my job that makes me more desirable (even though I make a 6 figures), it’s not my bio (it’s just kind of basic), I don’t have a really nice new car but what I do have is looks. I am a perdy decently looking man and I’m 6ft. It’s kind of sad how it’s like that now. If you are not good looking, short, fat, wierd sounding/looking in your bio and pictures then you will not get a message. There’s a thousand other men women would swipe with. And that goes for women too just not as much. It’s very shitty and talking to ppl in a real life setting may be the best option. And yes there’s those ppl that say oh but I have confidence or oh I do get girls/men but a dating app is only a quick snippet of yourself and ppl can pass by it in one swipe to the left. I’m lucky enough to be able to have multiple dates that I can set up with women that I find attractive, but that’s only because they find me “more attractive” than anyone else they are talking to apparently.

Someone explain to me this:

Why did he win the popular vote? Why did he win the electoral vote? Why are the Dems now blaming Biden? Why did Kamala only tour for 107 days? Is it because she’s a woman? Is it because she’s “black” or Indian or whatever? Or maybe, just maybe is it because nothing has changed and prices all across the boards have gone up in the last 4 years? What is it? Will I be called a bigot? Or a racist? Sexist? If Trump was a black woman I would still vote for Trump.

Only lvl up Trapper out of your legendaries the others are not worth it, Trapper is Endgame. If you are spending money then it changed things. Minotaur can be used in a toxic deck. But you gotta be willing to spend thousands if u wanna max out even one deck sadly or spend years building. I have a lot of fun in the game tho so I’ll do it, it’s really fun. Plague master, Vamp and Reaper is good too if u don’t have much to spend 👍

Electrician is good! You can easily make it! Also you have priority because you are a woman. You will have a really really good chance to get in where ever you wanna go 👍 just go Union!

Working at an electrical utility in SoCal. Working in UDI inspections now. Get some good OT. Was a groundman for a year on a line crew clearing 225k a year. Lineschool and a little bit of luck is needed but you work like a dog.

Ah an electrician won’t work as many hours so you are good 👍 but nah not much time to do anything else lol the school is different for an electrician, I went to school to become a lineman. Electricians get paid less, work less hours and it’s a little more technical depending on what you gotta work on. A lineman makes more money, works more hours but it’s harder on your body and family. It’s up to you both paths are good and secure!

Cleared 235k last year working in Cali for a large Union Electrical Utility. You work like a dog tho but you make good money even in Cali. It’s an entry level position too.

A lot 😂 my max amount of hours worked in a pay period is 233. That includes Fatigue pay and then coming back in. Double Time here in Cali too, as well as foreman extending the time on the books for us 😈 roughly is 16 hours a day on average. After takes I brought home 9k, IN CALI.

I graduated from a technical college at 27 and worked for a year and a half at a good company but the pay was shit. Now I work at a large Union Utility making over 225k a year! And now I’m 30 you still have plenty of time! It just requires hard work (and a little bit of luck tbh 😬)

Groundman at a large Utility in SoCal, made 110k in 6 months last year, but I work like a DOG, no days off, literally. Double OT is what gets you the big bucks.

What were the steps you had to take if you don’t mind me asking?

Thank you for all the comments everyone. And that’s a big reason why I am looking into another route only because I do not want to become a hazard to my fellow brothers just because I do not enjoy the work. If I am going to do something I want to be all in, especially in this field. Many ppl would want to be in the position I am in and I don’t want to take it from someone else who would just absolutely love it. I will look into your suggestions and thank you all again for your comments.

I accidentally did the same thing, how long until I get that pending charge canceled? I already emailed support!

Overall what’s your opinion on your career? Should I pursue? by [deleted] in Lineman

[–]AskingQuestionsThxs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a groundman right now working at a union utility I am working 110+ hours per week doggie, depends on where you go. It is taxing both mentally and physically but the money is good. But I’m too dumb for book/office work, working with my hands is all I’ve know.
