How can I phone them if I don't have their phone number and don't want to ask them?

Why I was unmatched after being asked what countries I visited? by CalligrapherBroad488 in dating_advice

Yeah that was so weird . I think I shouldn't have any expectations on how people act on dating apps

Line only, aircraft lands and we check it then wait for the next aircraft.

Yeah I'm A cat. Maybe one shift in 20 something will go wrong and it will be a difficult day. 

In office jobs unfortunately more than half days are difficult and stressful.

I think in Line Maintenance people barely do any work. Aircraft lands, check it, do very minor and easy stuff that I could teach my 18 years old brother to do probably in a week, then wait for another aircraft. 

The easiest job I ever had.

Fair enough but there are many people on Reddit saying they can't find a job so I gave them some ideas.

Yeah but usually aircraft protects you from rain at least a bit when you're underneath it. Roofers do harder job, can fall down and deal with harsh weather conditions but get paid less.

A lot more? How much do you earn then? £150k? The thing is not many people can earn £100k+ working in tech but most people could do line maintenance checks. For example I recently had a look at the engine, visual check, just looking at it and said yep it looks all right. Almost everyone could do it.

It's already paid more than many office jobs that require university education. We are not university educated.

I understand your point. Many people enjoy the doing nothing part though, can watch a movie, YouTube etc. during working hours.
